Religion is from the least developed part of our brains. You could say it's the most primitive part of our cognitive thinking. Go ask someone if they'll give you $3.00 for an brand new invisible 2009 BMW 730i and they'll just laugh at you! Ask them how much they gave to the lord, who is just as invisible and non-existent, and the monetary answer will be in the $1000.00's!!This hold true for at least 75% of the human population if not more!! Religion stems from our most primitive brain functions.

Gravity is the bent space time done in the presence of a mass according to general theory of relativity. Only impressive math skills you have to have. Tensors, derivatives, fields. Imagine a rubber sheet the Sun a cannon ball and the Earth like a marble rotating around it. There is not an attraction force per say like Newton thought although is very intuitive, but rather the Earth moves on curved space-time geodetic lines that Sun bends. It’s like it always chasing a valley.

what are number like 2 (even) or 3 (odd). compression fregments. thats why you get very big numbers and very small numbers. hint...

[Robert Olson]

yet again sorry for my rant.. i just seem to know more then them..

[Robert Olson]

here is my angry rant at this in general with hints at things you arn't trained to think for reasons.

[Robert Olson]

well lol you guys are SO OUT DATED.

This is how the element 115 gravity generators work. These amplifiers are located in front of space ship that create a distortion in the space-time continuum, so the craft follow a downhill slope to infinity and accelerates very fast…
