ALL ABOUT NOTHING

Comments

  • I've been rather discouraged that there has so far been Nothing Newsworthy about Nothing...lately....until this. I found this quite alarming article, which you may hear further about on tonights newscasts. This is Just In.


    WASHINGTON -- The latest New York Times/CBS News poll showed that American Forumites oppose posts about NOTHING by a 71%-24% margin, while 5% indicated that they want the wardrobes in the TV series \"Desperate Housewives\" and for all \"NFL/AFC Football Cheerleaders\" to consist of NOTHING.
    However, within hours of the poll's publication, a 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel overturned the poll results and ordered American Forumites to change their minds about NOTHINGNESS.

    \"This Court finds no reasonable precedent for the deeply-held beliefs of most American Forumites,\" according to the 13-page ruling. \"Therefore, the survey results will forthwith demonstrate that 71 percent of American Forumites favor posts about NOTHING, and only 24 percent oppose the concept. That said, this Court rules in favor of NOTHING.\"

    Furthermore, the ruling goes on to say...\"in regards to the 5 percent qualifying in a minority clause\" this establishes unprecedented new Law.
    The 9th U.S. Circuit Court further rules \"this instrument annexed or subsidiary to a new InterNet Agreement as Treaty inacted through earlier U.S. Supreme Court rulings of U.S. Government vs. Microsoft/Gates et.al. 28504XC 5051 therefore grants the 5% their wishes, under the title CORRUPT WISHES enactment made by DT Legislature and expressed in formal document dated Wed. Sept. 20, 2006 2:33pm EST.

    The Corrupt Wish must be expressly enforced and governed by Forum Internal Affairs ie. Moderators.


    ..........I think if NOTHING were to choose to just be still about this...then it can not be stopped. :)
  • Human brains are incapable of fully comprehending the concept of 0 and infinity. Computers can comprehend 0, but not infinity.

    To prove the human aspect think about the big bang theory of the universe. Before the bigbang, there was NOTHING. No time, no space no nothing. At a time 1/infinity after the bigbang, all energy (matter didnt exist then) was inside a space called the singularity that was infinitly small, and infinitly hot.

    We simply cannot comprehend these concepts of absolute nothingness and absolute infinity.

    Our Human minds can't fathom Big Bang Theory :shock: Amen & Amen that's because in the begining God. period. That's were something came from nothing from Almighty God 8) Not some bang or Primordial soup that evolved. Things don't just get better over time advance jump to one lower form to the next higher. Things break down rust fall apart die. All things in our current Earth will one day wear out or be spent. That's why my hope is in God who created & will make all things new 8)

    God Bless!!

  • WRONG again!....and evolution is a scientificly proven fact (the descended from apes part is a \"theory\").....I wish to not base my life on \"Fairy Tales\"
  • NOTHING but an opinion...if anyone is interested.

    God describes a War between the Angels which took place millions of years ago. He leads reference to creating the Universe, but does not go into detail...maybe because that is not the important issue for now. As hootman indicated....our ability to understand is severvely limited within our current mortal existance. We are here for a purpose, but it is also very basic, for now. We can speculate on how God may have created the Universe....if you even hold faith in God or not. I know if I were such an All Powerful God....I'd want to create a Universe with a Big Bang. Biggest Bang imaginable.....a mind boggling bang that does not destroy, but rather gives life and sets the cycle in motion. Kinda cool .... 8) :D

    Anyway...God does say he gave the Throne of Earth to Lucifer long before the War, and fall of Lucifer. This would have been millions of years ago. So....can we account for this ancient world with dinosaurs, and such...yes. Through science we can date certain life that old.

    Keep in mind...if you hold belief in God, then know also, Lucifer (Satan) is still holding the Throne of Earth. Jesus has qualified to take the Throne, but has not been given that Throne yet, nor Coronated King. So, with Satan still Lord of this Earth...he is still allowed to Decieve...and so much so...he decieves the whole world....flat out period. Very...VERY few people throughout the Age of Man...are free from that. I know I am not.

    God goes on to explain how man was created and put on Earth only a mere 6,000+ years ago. This is all we can account for without speculation or theories. Evolution...yes there is such a thing...but the evolution of man....NO....only theory.

    Both religions or theories have legs and stand on their own. You are welcome to believe either. Facts and science can only go so far....because we still are trying to prove even the simpliest of things. Man is most of the time extremely arrogant. Basically man does not know much...and can only create from things that are already existing. Man can not create something from NOTHING.

    There is no need to argue over who is right or who is wrong. I am certain we all are not.

    Again...this is nothing but my opinion....subject to change.. :lol:
    NOTHING is Certain. :lol: 8)
  • If you have a look at some of the astrophysics around, they make so many assumptions that it might as well be a religion.

    I must say I am with cobaltblooz on matters like this. When you study science in depth, like me, you have to believe it or you start hating it...
  • Nothing is an awe-inspiring yet essentially undigested concept, highly esteemed by writers of an existentialist tendency, but by most others regarded with axiety, nausea, or panic. Nobody seems to know how to deal with it and plain persons generally are reported to have little difficulty in saying, seeing, hearing, and doing Nothing.


    And - the friends of Nothing (wonder who this might be?) may be divided into two distinct though not exclusive classes: Know-Nothings, who claim a phenomenological acquaintance with Nothing in particular, and Fear-Nothings, who believing, with Macbeth, that \"Nothing is but what is not,\" are thereby launched into dialectical encounter with nullity in general.

    Nothing, in short, is given only in relation to what is, and even the idea of Nothing requires a thinker to sustain it.

    Cobaltz,you forgot Man I've been there before :cry: I can tell you I was never free. Now Sir I am free thru Jesus. I have inner peace & Joy that is not dependant on Pot Alchohol, or Sex. Even when I'm in the storm & things are not going good? It's funny I'm still thankfull free & joyfull 8) ! live above circumstances thru my God & Savior Jesus :D He came to set the captive free & that's all he's done in my life set me free that's what I proclaim to you as real & genuine. I was decieved & thought I was free when I was that Pagan you talk of :cry: But now I know I'm free & Saved thru Christ. I will never turn on my Lord even if someday I become a marter as countless millions thru the Ages :D

    God Bless you Sir With Eyes to see & ears to hear what the Spirit Says

  • Some may ask...\"Why is this thread still here?\"
    ....but how can anyone be tired of Nothing?

    ...is this thread still here?? ...actually it can't be if it is Nothing, that is why I was compelled to make it \"All About Nothing.\" But...does this very act threaten our very existance? I wonder if making Nothing into something, the cycle of Life itself could grind to a halt.

    Maybe it is best we leave Nothing alone.

    Would Nothing still be Something, even if nobody pays much attendtion?

    Can we have a fairy tale ending, if we allow this thread to vanish into Nothing? :?

    Keep in mind Cobalt,
    There is pleasure in Sin for a season. The Bible is clear on that. But we are to live our lives in light of Eternity not the here & now pleasure it's all about me type of thing. It's not all about you type thing. It's all about God. He's the one that gave you life, & has a perpose for your life 8)
    I hope & pray you find that Purpose someday :D Then you will know what I speak of & truly understand 8)

    God Bless You!!

  • :) Well.....I for one would still like to get Nothing accomplished.
    :(......ohh no...here we go again.. :evil:

    Consider if this thread were about Zero. :shock:
    ....the topic may lean towards absolute zero in the near future cause it can't be in the distant past since zero in itself is not quite absolute when spoken in the past tense.

    The value of nothing when nothing is zero:

    In most instances, a result of a calculation that is very close to zero may not always be treated as zero. Therefore, the value of zero is set to a small positive value, and a quantity is treated as zero only when it is equal to absolute zero or nothing. A number greater than the absolute value of zero will always have a value of something no matter how minute. The law of approaching smaller numbers proves that one cannot really say they have nothing as there is an infinite amount of something between nothing and absolute zero. :?

    .....but this is still Nothing...NEW. :lol:

    Well said, however there seems to be a finite difference between zero and absolute zero. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_zero

    Does anyone know of an upper temperature limit? Supernovas give off all the hottest colors before imploding and then collapsing into a gravity sucking black hole. Hell's heat has an eternal flame to torment wicked souls. Some think absolutely nothing of this. :shock:
  • There is pleasure in Sin for a season

    OH, I don't know about THAT!.....I'm going on 40+ seasons of sin .....so far - so good ! :twisted:

    It's all about God

    UUMMM, NO....it's all about ME!

    The REAL God has absolutly NOTHING to do with your concept of \"God\"...he created the \"Big Bang\"....Dinosaurs and everything else your Bible doesn't cover....he did NOT create man in his own image, since his image is so far away from man it's inconcievable to us....Jesus was just a guy....and people created a mythology around him because THEY HAD TO!

    The more you try to promote your Christianity on a friggin Guitar message board, the more I will hold it up to the ridicule it deserves....I wasn't looking for converts, but now I am (equal time, point/counter point I guess you'd call it...I may start going door to door to spread MY gospel....\"Hello\" we're \"THE JEHOVAHS NITWITS\"!!!!! :twisted:
  • Amen & Amen to that Cobalts :D I'm not here to try to convert people to my viewpoints of absolute Truth 8) Besides only God could do that anyhow :lol: But I am called to be a witness to the Truth period. & I felt led to do just that be a witness not push Jesus on anyone including you. As I have already said I don't save or convert anyone!! That is the work of God my fellow guitar player. I'm not going to argue with you I'm not an apoligist if you want that go to Rovie Zacharies or someone like that that could refute your pittifull pleas of justifying your Sin & Lifestyle not me. I'm done on this thread including reading it anymore beyond your last rant :cry: Know my fellow guitar player I will not push my faith on this forum but I will deffinetly be a witness when I feel God would have me to say something, Anything less would be disobedience. Know Cobalts I have nothing against you because you hostile to my faith on the contrary you will be in my prayers as well as others whom I have fellowship with :wink:

    God Bless your Hard heart with understanding
    In Jesus name Amen

    Dont confuse physical zero with mathematical zero.
    Its like with anything, temperature is proportional to energy, so if an object has no energy, you have reached the absolute zero (temperature). BUT in order for matter to exist it has to possess some energy, so can never really be absolute 0 (temperature.
    There is no upper limit of energy (except the sum of the energy in the universe) and therefore no upper limit of temperature in the universe.

    Mathematical zero is a rational number that is used to describe quantities that are nothing, neither positive nor negative. Unlike its closely related cousin, infinity, zero is defined.

    Manitou is correct when it comes to near zero being treated differently in maths. This is called a limit. It is the result when x approches 0, as opposed to x = 0.

    There is, however, a limit the the velocity that one can attain. That limit is the speed of light. This is all nicely tied in with his famous E=MC^2 formula, which states that the energy a certain object = the mass of the object x the speed of light squared (among other, more frightening theorums and formulas). This results in infinite energy being required to attain the speed of light, which would create infinite mass, making the object elongate to a size which is larger than the universe in which its travelling through.

  • you guys don't watch enough TV. Besides, the only absolute zero I'm aware of is the sex I'm getting from Elizabeth Hurley. :cry:
  • Still....Nothing much going on here. :?

    For Halloween....I'll be passing out NOTHING to the little monsters. :lol:
    ...because a nothing is a dreadful thing to hang onto!! heheeeeeeeee :D

    I did a search on \"Big Bang\"....and found the answer.

    Oh what delicious BLASPHEMY....(And a Simpsons reference! :twisted: )

    The thing that really stuck in my craw this weekend was watching Youtube videos of the \"Westboro Baptist Church\" congregation protesting at military funerals because \"God Hates America\"...they say our soldiers deserve to die because we are a sinful nation and God is out to destroy us (quote: \"Thank God for 9/11\"....!)....these nutjobs had me beside myself with anger, I'm still in disbelief....all I know is - if they protested MY sons funeral after giving his life for his country, they would have a whole new batch of funerals to attend!

    www.warroom.com exposed that cult family as the guy is a lawyer hoping someone will hit him or deny a protest permit so he can sue. God has nothing to do with him.
  • Wow, THATS even more disturbing...
  • Another source story on his making a funeral much ado about nothing- http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2006-09-13-funeral-protests_x.htm
  • God has nothing to do with him.

    Right on Zap!

    I think that Partch has alot of guts, I also think that attitudes like this:
    The REAL God has absolutly NOTHING to do with your concept of \"God\"...he created the \"Big Bang\"....Dinosaurs and everything else your Bible doesn't cover

    are completely hypocritical!

    Fact: There is clearly infinitely more physical evidence that proves that the books of both the old and new testiments DID happen and are TRUE, in stark contrast there has yet to be (in 100yrs of pushing this weak theory) one single shred of physical evidence that vertical evolution has ever existed. There is absolutely no doubt the events of the new testiment happened. I'm interested in knowing how much you researched(read) the bible, before you came to the erroneous conclusion that the bible doesn't have somethiing to say about both of those issues ?

    Generalizations based on faith or belief in God, like this drivvle:

    The thing that really stuck in my craw this weekend was watching Youtube videos of the \"Westboro Baptist Church\" congregation protesting at military funerals because \"God Hates America\"...they say our soldiers deserve to die because we are a sinful nation and God is out to destroy us (quote: \"Thank God for 9/11\"....!)....these nutjobs had me beside myself with anger, I'm still in disbelief....all I know is - if they protested MY sons funeral after giving his life for his country, they would have a whole new batch of funerals to attend!

    ... is a typical agnostic strategy, to find the most outrageous people operating under the guise of \"christianity\" and then accuse all people of faith of having the same beliefs or attitudes. Its funny to me how you see your personal freedom as a right, yet have no respect for anyone else's. Yeah, I think the WBC thing is ridiculous too, but your trying to infer that Partch supports that because he shared his faith on this thread...is even more ridiculous! Rather than mimic your strategy, I wish to point out the reality of whats going on in the world while your busy pleasing yourself.

    People with this all me attitude, need give their heads a shake, and get in the game, and support the biblical beliefs like truth, freedom and liberty (for all, not just you) that once made America strong. The once invincible America is on the edge of collapse, if you don't believe me, take a tour of New Orleans, or the ghettos of any major city for that matter. If thats not enough, check out the US balance sheet...how much debt? The US debt clock was just under 8.6 trillion dollars this morning, growing at 1.62 billion a day. Each citizens share? over $28,565.00 for every man, woman and child in the USA. With over 25% of working Americans one paycheck away from being homeless, and the millions already homeless, who's gonna pay?

    Add to that the growing list of non muslim countries that have sworn the USA as arch enemies...I've seen it myself, if you don't believe me, travel the world with the stars and stripes on your back, and see how many friends you make. I personally have given Canadian flags and pins to Americans I met while touring thru Europe, so they could masquerade as Canadians to avoid the insults, spitting, and physical attacks they were facing throughout their travels. It's like the American double standard when it comes to Cuba. Official line: We are enemies of Cuba, and therefore must have total embargos including travel. Reality: Hundreds of thousands of Americans come to Canada every year for one reason...to catch a flight to Cuba without getting caught.

    Since your busy attacking your fellow countryman for exersizing his freedom by worshipping God, I wanted to point out that you have lots of unexpected allies. There are hundreds of millions of people on the earth that agree with you. Further, they want to kill Partch because he believes he is a son of Abraham. They, like you thinks he's way off, but guess what? They hate you, too. Why? Because of what you represent...all of the things you covet so highly, freedom, liberty, abundance, equality, personal pursuit of wealth, even sex, drugs and rock & roll,etc.

    And you know what they are doing now? They are building mosques all over the western world, with a particular boom in the US. Today there are currently over 2000 mosques in the continental USA and muslim leaders plan to double that number in the next three years. All this while most westerners are worried about how to get a HDtv or a fricken Lexus with some rims. Meanwhile, Islam is setting up an ambush underneath our noses. While Homeland Security is watching the borders, the real attack from Islam, will most likely be coming from within the US borders. Its already been narrowly averted once.

    Your lifestyle/attitude of \"all me about me\" is a freedom you will surely lose (along with your life) if Islam has its way with you cobaltblooz, that is of course, unless you convert to islam. Perhaps, you can stick to your strategy and tell them how wrong they are about their religion, maybe they'll listen and skip killing you and your family.

    The Truth is things like FREEDOM and LIBERTY are gifts from God. If you don't believe this fact, I challenge you to spend a year in the Muslim country of your choice, so you can extract your own freedom without God, and maybe while your there, you can explain to them that your agnostic so they can leave you alone:

    Afghanistan
    Algeria
    Bahrain
    Bangladesh
    Brunei
    Iran
    Iraq
    Jordan
    Kuwait
    Libya
    Maldives
    Mauritania
    Morocco
    Oman
    Pakistan
    Qatar
    Saudi Arabia
    Somalia
    Tunisia
    United Arab Emirates
    Yemen


    Even better, you should put your money where your mouth is and move to one of these official Athiest/Agnostic Countries where you will have full government support of your ideology:

    China
    North Korea
    Vietnam
    Cuba

    When you come back, maybe you can explain how easy it was for you to live your life for you, all about you, in one of these places that share your sentiments for God. You can tell them how much you've helped them out by attacking Christianity in America.

    In Fact, it is well beyond me how someone can (say that they) support a military (re)action based on attacks on America because of America's Christianity, and then in the same breath, attack Christianity in America? Maybe it's all the christians fault? Maybe Islam wouldn't hate us, if we were all like you...I don't think so. You are talking out of both sides of your mouth, you cannot support the troops, unless you support what they are fighting for. Do you want the Christian members of the U.S. military to stop fighting on your behalf, since you don't approve of their religious beliefs? So with respect to US foreign policy you support christian principles, but your fellow countrymen are fair game? Interesting way of life, too invertibrate for me though.


    If you do nothing, you will soon be left with nothing, and opportunity for change will pass you by while you were too busy worrying about nothing.
