We have war.

And that is the grim, dark future of the 41st millenium.
war never changes


You call her an attention whore yet you have to completely derail topics once again expressing your disapproval of her despite her not actually trying to gain attention in the said topic.

This thread has no specific topic. Also if you count that as a de-rail why do you not count everything else as a de-rail?

how the forget would you disprove time and space
"Its 12:00 now"
"No it isn't"
:O

"Why are you over there?"
"Im not"

"Its 12:00 now"
"No it isn't"
:O

"Why are you over there?"
"Im not"
"You're gay"
"No, you are"
"Oh, ok"

I can't see how it would matter to anyone smart anyways. Some people don't have to find an explanation as to how things work other than to make existing things better with whatever beliefs they have.

Yes it does. Granted it's a bad one, but that's no excuse.

It's OBVIOUS that this topic was at least trying to initiate a conversation trying to discuss the possibilities and repercussions that would occur if our understanding and trust in the function of the natural world was completely shattered. Trying to focus it about a long going bickering filled debate over the true gender identity of a person that you constantly seem to show radical hate for is not exactly being on topic, and only serves to try to gain negative attention from Stocking.

Anyways, back on topic, didn't people freak out during the late 1800's/early 1900's when aspects of Newtonian Physics were disproved/heavily revised? Oh wait, that was called the Age of Anxiety. I could easily see one coming if any major scientist such as Darwin or Einstein were disproved or had their theories heavily revised.

seeing humanity as it is, i don't think we'll even make it halfway through the age of strife.

The OP is hypothetical and also highly unlikely.


Even if this did happen, people would still try to believe. People would deny.


You can't prove wrong known things in the universe though, sorry, you just can't.

edit:

OP is also extremely annoying to me because he is a mockery to logical thought and philosophy.

But isn't the concept of time a man-made thing? To organize and record the "timespans" of something: e.g.
Days
Life of a Human
Hours
Events
etc etc

Days/time are based off of Earth's rotations and it's revolution around the sun. We used those to create the concept of time, no? And us humans are imperfect. Maybe other intelligent life somewhere in the universe has a completely different way of telling time. Maybe time doesn't matter to them?

These are just beliefs or thoughts I have, feel free to prove me wrong or bring up your own points.
