  • They're questions that would hopefully lead one to question much of everything they believe they know. I apologize if the tone, or the long path of questions comes across as berating. But really, it's in the sake of open discussion. I'm not particularly trying to single out one person. I want anyone to wonder

  • Lightning is an effect, not the cause itself.

    "As the difference between the charges in the bottom of the cloud and the earth below it builds up, the first stage of lightning begins.

    When the electric field becomes very strong (on the order of tens of thousands of volts per inch), conditions are ripe for the air to begin breaking down. The electric field causes the surrounding air to become separated into positive ions and electrons — the air is ionized. Keep in mind that the ionization does not mean that there is more negative charge (electrons) or more positive charge (positive atomic nuclei / positive ions) than before. This ionization only means that the electrons and positive ions are farther apart than they were in their original atomic structure." https://science.howstuffworks.com/nature/natural-disasters/lightning2.htm

    So, what exactly, precisely is that atomic force?

  • "An electric spark is an abrupt electrical discharge that occurs when a sufficiently high electric field creates an ionized, electrically conductive channel through a normally-insulating medium, often air or other gases or gas mixtures. Michael Faraday described this phenomenon as "the beautiful flash of light attending the discharge of common electricity".[1]" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_spark

  • Where does the charge in electrons themselves come from? If equivalent exchange is considered, and factoring into account the question "what truly, deeply, absolutely, unknowingly, creates the energy of all life and motion?" It raises a lot of questions. We know it's from food and water, what we take in, nutrients, materials, matter. But, what makes these reactions occur to begin with? Can you explain to a 6 year old the absolute truth of why there's gravity, space, and time? How? What it is precicely? Explaining relativity completely? What is IT? Do you actually, wholly know? Can you truly say time travel is, or isn't possible, and why, with your arguement standing the test of absolutely every possible counter study/experiment/real attempt?

    Also, do you know when this was written and published in relation to every known fact at rhe given time?

  • All it's saying is that, well if God is the Supreme Creator, then He created the phenomenon lightening. The heavens sent down the rains, so too was is believed that God cast down the lightning sometimes. It shakes the Earth, lights up the sky, and does make a mighty boom when it strikes, no? This verse is a poetic description of a natural phenomenon if anything. But too, does it beg the question, "Where does lightning really come from? What makes it strike? It brings an enourmous flash of light, thunderous booms, and Earth shattering, tree splitting force everytime."

  • But we know wind is caused by a temperature/pressure difference, and displacement through the motion of other, material matter. Where did the force of electricity come from? What creates more of it? Especially considering neurons in life

  • Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?
  • In a sense, yes. People will build assumptions about the tech they use. An old PC didn't have a mouse, touch screen, GUI, 3D realistic graphics, most things that are now considered typical. AI is going to really, really push a lot of boundaries. Good and bad actors alike, as with all technological developments. People are creatures of habit, because change is uncomfortable to actually accept and learn.

  • Revealed: WHO aspartame safety panel linked to alleged Coca-Cola front group
  • True scientists understand that nothing is absolutely FACT unless absolutely no one can prove, or confidently suggest otherwise. True scientists constantly distrust science, because there's always a deeper level to it. We don't understand everything. The more we understand about one system in the human body, the more we understand about the others.

  • Biden will establish a national monument honoring Emmett Till, the Black teen lynched in Mississippi
  • It's always important that we focus on commemorating, and creating lasting examples of society's faults. So that we never forget, for the sake of not repeating history. It's truly monstrous what mankind is capable of doing to one another, especially if it's somehow encouraged. But, there are more pressing matters. A portion of government employees should be tasked with preserving our historical mistakes. The President, as Chief of State, needs to focus on successfully leading us into a prosperous future. Directly combating that which immediately affects the masses, such as America's pestilent crime endemic would benefit more people quicker. Today, millions in our own country suffer from homelessness, poverty, addictions, physical/mental/emotional/sexual/drug abuse, medical conditons (caused by a miriad of pollutants in air, Earth, water, and diet), crime, harassment, and so much more.
