*Roger Penrose , a man with impressive edcuation, and an impressive career. Shows how impossible it is for the universe, earth and manking to form itself after a big bang explosion. Almost impossible. It came from God. Mitch Raemsch Twice Nobel Laurate 2008 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Penrose The calculations of British mathematician Roger Penrose show that the probability of universe conducive to life occurring by chance is in 10 to the10.123. The phrase "extremely unlikely" is inadequate to describe this possibility. Roger Penrose*, a famous British mathematician and a close friend of Stephen Hawking, wondered about this question and tried to calculate the probability. Including what he considered to be all variables required for human beings to exist and live on a planet such as ours, he computed the probability of this environment occurring among all the possible results of the Big Bang. According to Penrose, the odds against such an occurrence were on the order of 1010123 to 1. It is hard even to imagine what this number means. In math, the value 10123 means 1 followed by 123 zeros. (This is, by the way, more than the total number of atoms 1078 believed to exist in the whole universe.) But Penrose's answer is vastly more than this: It requires 1 followed by 10123 zeros. Or consider: 103 means 1,000, a thousand. 10103 is a number that that has 1 followed by 1000 zeros. If there are six zeros, it's called a million; if nine, a billion; if twelve, a trillion and so on. There is not even a name for a number that has 1 followed by 10123 zeros. In practical terms, in mathematics, a probability of 1 in 1050 means "zero probability". Penrose's number is more than trillion trillion trillion times less than that. In short, Penrose's number tells us that the 'accidental" or "coincidental" creation of our universe is an impossibility. Concerning this mind-boggling number Roger Penrose comments: This now tells how precise the Creator's aim must have been, namely to an accuracy of one part in 1010123. This is an extraordinary figure. One could not possibly even write the number down in full in the ordinary denary notation: it would be 1 followed by 10123 successive 0's. Even if we were to write a 0 on each separate proton and on each separate neutron in the entire universe- and we could throw in all the other particles for good measure- we should fall far short of writing down the figure needed. http://www.faizani.com/news/news_200...ssibility.html |

Oh? Gravity? Not proven? Floated to the ceiling recently? Weak nuclear force? Not proven? You should probably ask the people in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Electromagnetic force? Not proven? How the heck do the magnets stay on my fridge? Or how does your car get started? Magic? Granted, the strong nuclear force is a little trickier. But neutrons and protons.... you really want to argue them? Nice try. Another armchair scientist. Ok, you need not use Wikipedia. But other encyclopedias would have saved you from making a fool of yourself. Which you just did. All the four forces can be observed. Weak nuclear force is tricky to do at home and even more so strong nuclear force, but gravity and electromagnetism.... Tokay P.S.: Ok, so "proven" is maybe the wrong word. "Observed" is probably better in this context. -- Duct tape is like the force. It has a light side, and a dark side, and it holds the universe together ... Carl Zwanzig |

There are too many variables that are still misunderstood to even remotely think these theories to date are 100 percent reliable. |

I AM a little surprised that you changed your mind from "unproven powers" to actually knowing what this is about. Probably there is hope for you. QED because NO scientific theory can be regarded as 100% reliable. There ALWAYS might crop up some observation that is NOT explained by it and then the theory has to be changed accordingly. But there is hope. You know how to use an encyclopedia and that is a very good start! Congrats!

Thats in your understanding of what I wrote not in the content of what I wrote for if you understood the basic construct of the postulate you might have considered that it has several aspects that are predicted and varifiable, if not varified yet it still has several aspects that can be varified but requires a different internal bias from the start. Every theory starts from a internal bias of the researcher , just as you have, but almost none will even reconize the internal bias or conceive of Intrinsic Bias both of which will cause issues with any theory.. -- http://fast.filespace.org/PaulRMays/Postulate.pdf -- Paul R.
