You know you are lucky to have bosses that care about you enough to share that with you. They don’t do it to try to prove themselves right or anything like that they just want you to have the hope they have. If you dont want it then its your choice and theres nothing they can do to change your mind.

are you questioning rather or not imaginary numbers exist? Definition: imaginary numbers are multiples of the square root of negative one.

Let’s not pretend like Christians are any less scared of death than non Christians.

Comparing a solid mathematical theory written by one of the most intelligent men living today to random chapters of an old fictional book = :picard:

I was comparing his method of using these numbers to get the result he wants, it has nothing to do with the bible. In his model, he is able to use real numbers, but the problem with using real numbers is that the singularity, or starting point of the universe is defined by a point. Almost like a cone coming to a point. But imaginary numbers turn time into a dimension and create a rounded point of time where the universe might have begun instead of a definite point. Turning the imaginiary numbers back into real ones makes the singularity appear again and his whole theory is a bust. So he has to keep imaginary numbers inhis equations to get the required result.

I started questioning my faith when i was like 18 or 19 (like most kids) so i started reading…every book i could find on creation and the beggining of the universe.
