I suppose he may have thought it was better for him to remain alive and continue his research under arrest, than to behave as a martyr, perhaps foolishly so, and hence relinquish all opportunity to further the cause of science and free speech. Who really knows?
BTW, with WIKI, you and I can enter 'facts on the site, or at least you could, and how reliable might that be???
Hi druidess, (the above post was sent without reply, pressed button mistakenly).
I know what you mean about feeling his presence, and it was timely you agreed on a signal of some kind. My first born was born 18 weeks prematurely as she had anancephaly. I feel her presence often, and sometimes even sleeping next to me. I find that so comforting, and I love that. Still grieve though, and I know now that I shouldn't. So will try not to, and just enjoy her presence when I 'listen' out for her.
They will have no need to visit anyone here will they. So I guess, it will be party time!
As someone else here said, energy cannot be created or destroyed. a basic principle of physics. We can't just change the rules whenever it suits us. Look at the advances in quantum physics.
Besides conrad, just cast your mind back to the time Galleleo. Wasn't he excommunicated because he dared to suggest the earth was round? Absolute heresy at the time, for him to say the earth was round. Yet, without people like him, maintaining an inquiring mind, pushing the boundaries of creative thinking and not bowing to public pressure and ridicule, we would still be living in caves!
Thank you for your comment. As Wish said earlier, none of us will truly know until we die oursleves. In the meantime, people continue sharing experiences, scientific community or no. It is interesting to observe all the commentary nonethesess
Mind you, I'm not sure I like the way you so readily dismiss the fact that there is such a magnitude of apathy on your home front on the very eve of your elections?
What percentage of Americans actually vote? I doubt nthat it is even 50%, but would love to hear from you, please.
Well, my Sunday ends in 10 minutes. I guess in that time I plan to get ready for bed, which might come about in a few hours, with these wretched threads!!!
