I'm glad to see you are pro-abortion.

Science has very little for you then. Or... we can acknowledge that there is no soul, nothing to integrate, nothing in eternal danger of being tortured by your loving god, and we can live free from the guilt and shame of imaginary sins. Merry Christmas!

That the union of two disjoint sets, both of which have a cardinality of [math]\aleph_0[/math], has a cardinality of [math]\aleph_0[/math] is logical because we are not dealing with finite sets. The logic of finite sets does not apply to infinite sets. Infinite sets have a logic of their own. If we have two disjoint sets A = {a1, a2, ...,an, ...} and B = {b1, b2, ...,bn, ...}, both of which can be placed into one-to-one correspondence with [math]\mathbb {N}[/math]: [math]1 \longleftrightarrow a_1[/math] [math]2 \longleftrightarrow a_2[/math] [math]...[/math] [math]n \longleftrightarrow a_n[/math] [math]...[/math] and: [math]1 \longleftrightarrow b_1[/math] [math]2 \longleftrightarrow b_2[/math] [math]...[/math] [math]n \longleftrightarrow b_n[/math] [math]...[/math] then we can interleave these two lists to form a list that is also a one-to-one correspondence with [math]\mathbb {N}[/math]: [math]1 \longleftrightarrow a_1[/math] [math]2 \longleftrightarrow b_1[/math] [math]3 \longleftrightarrow a_2[/math] [math]4 \longleftrightarrow b_2[/math] [math]...[/math] [math]2n-1 \longleftrightarrow a_n[/math] [math]2n \longleftrightarrow b_n[/math] [math]...[/math]

I tried with both German and Chinese. I had to give up on both, but I would recommend studying challenging languages if only to get an idea of the different ways in which information is organised in them. Chinese really was the biggest challenge in the sense that I realised I'd probably never become any fluent in it no matter how hard I tried taking it up that late in my life. 😢

Well, one must remember that Newtonian gravity is only a very simplified approximation that disregards all non-linearities, so it is perhaps not so surprising that some of its concepts turn out to be less general than we take them to be.

Great, you’re still trying hard to be useful in this thread. People don’t arse with reading my original post either and I don’t see you pointing that out.

I think that it's not right to give definition to a soul. Feels like I dissect mine with this scientific method. You are free to choose your beliefs. It's your world and your choice. But I think it is good to integrate your beliefs into life. Because someone may ask you "where does your soul come from?". According to The Bible every alive creature has a soul. Even plants feel when you speak to them. They grow better.

Merry Christmas! Well, yes, of course. If it feels more appropriate, then..) So it is capacity..is it energy's entity? Seems like this definition answers the question "what's energy for?".

Pre October 7th, the "policy" of the Israeli government had been one of marginalization and containment. Of course, that turned out to be an utter failure. It only "worked" for a while, until it completely didn't. Not really; see above Why should I ask someone else for a solution if I already had one, Your Brilliantness?
