Hades Posted May 18, 2004 Posted May 18, 2004 Q: How can a fridge magnet cling against gravity endlessly without draining a power source? A: It can't ... fridge magnets are impossible according to today's science. As we all know, it takes tremendous energy to cling to the side of a cliff, supporting our own weight against gravity, and before long we would tire and fall. Yet a fridge magnet is not glued to the fridge -- it is held by magnetic energy. And, as both our science and our common sense tell us, such an expenditure of energy requires that a power source be drawn upon to support this effort. Yet, a permanent magnet not only maintains its strength indefinitely (no theory or text- book shows the power drain characteristics of a permanent magnet as it holds itself or other objects against gravity), but there isn't even a power source in sight! Endless magnetic energy apparently emanates from permanent magnets without any explanation in our science. The only explanation that any physicist will give for this mystery is that there is no mystery at all since the magnet isn't moving, which gives a zero result if you plug this into the Work Function. No physicist will discuss this matter further. this is from "The Final Theory" link up top. what are your opinions on this matter? is this another attempt at a creationist to convince us of his views with relatively uneducated statements that would sound convincing to someone unfamiliar with the specifics, or am i being too critical? So a kitchen magnet proves a god exists?
Phi for All Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 So a kitchen magnet proves a god exists?An orderly god would never approve of my refrigerator. Since heating magnetite makes it lose its strength, does that mean the devil in hell is more powerful than God? I think the "no physicist will discuss this matter further" part is like a glove to the cheek, don't you? And did you notice all of his referrals are from either publishers or people with no credentials? This is my favorite: "Most fascinating non-fiction book I've ever read!" … "A simple, elegant explanation that at first seems impossible, but on further examination one finds that it's not that easy to refute." -- Steve Hanson, Mankato, MN, U.S.A
Sayonara Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 It certainly is fascinating, but that doesn't make it realistic
atinymonkey Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 No physicist will discuss this matter further. Oh, they will. But nobody voluntarily asks, and if they do start explaining it the brian has a trip switch to auto shut down until the mouth stops moving. It's an automatic reflex to prevent the brain from bordom overload.
Dave Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 This made me laugh: Q: Why is Einstein's Special Relativity Theory so bizarre? Is our universe really that strange? A: Einstein's Special Relativity Theory is all a mistake. Obviously there's more than that but it's all very silly. I thought I might buy the book just to laugh at it, but then I realised I'd actually be giving money to this guy. btw, the page is at http://www.thefinaltheory.com/ for those of you that want a good laugh.
x__heavenly__x Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 Something to consider? : http://www.coffeebreak-thrillers.com/Unified%20Theory.html I am a strong believer of Pure Energy Theory cuz it explains a lot without conflicting.
x__heavenly__x Posted May 19, 2004 Posted May 19, 2004 Its human nature to believe what they see...but...
