Topic: IT is likely the first person who will live to be 1,000yo is already alive today (Read 4497 times)

In court trials, witnesses call each other liars at times. People call each other liars all over the place.

What now? Do the thing that you are best at doing... the logic of the scientific method. The scientific method really only produces the answers that we see right now. Ideas and theories are just that. Ideas and theories.

Forget prophesying the actual age of the universe. Focus on the things that are practical... so that we can actually find the ways to become healthy enough to live in pleasantness and health for 1,000 years.

With these breakthrews and many more coming just around the corner, firstly they will only be for the super rich to begin with but if we have rapid space developments, hopefully this helps push mankind into the galaxy and ensure we survive as a species because if we don't it doesn't matter how long we could potentially live if we are all dead threw self destruction.

They would like you to believe there is only enough resources for so many people when the truth is as always very different, the tech that is coming and has already come secretly would enable us to all live happily if we never destroy ourselves. As it stands though we are all slaves to the 'enough resources'.

PS count me out of this living passed where I am destined to live am happy growing old and dying like many before me, this is life.

Imagine how bad the overpopulation problem will be when people can live that long?   Seriously, the earth only contains enough resources for so many people.   By trying to keep people alive we will be doing the opposite. 

So, then, how would you devise a method to determine that I am in fact a liar and biblical claims of a 6,000 year old Earth are not lies?

You call me a liar, I call them a liar...same thing.  What now?

Please go and educate yourself the difference between a "scientfic theory" and "guessing". If only to stop yourself from further embarassment. Thanks.  

I can only imaging what a horrible place the world would be if all of us were around forever.  


Solidarity. Always...

 

There are still places in the world that one can go to be a hermit. The advantage is, these days, that we have a few modern conveniences that a hermit can take with him to the top of his mountain that will make life easier for him.

I can only imaging what a horrible place the world would be if all of you were around forever.  

The eventual demise of each and every one of us is the only thing that gives me hope for the future.  

Well, if you are saying this like it is a reality, then I would have to respond that you are a liar, the part about you being 26,000 years old, that is.

Rather, it is shrewd politicians who are extrapolating the truth of science into all kinds of things that may or may not have happened. Then they publish their extrapolations as though they were truth, when they really don't know if their extrapolations are truth or not.

As a form of pure science, we know by experiment, right under our noses, that if you pass electricity through a brine, you get a separation of water into hydrogen and oxygen. If that is all that we know about this scientific operation, we can make all kinds of guesses as to why it works like this. Until the guesses are proven, they remain only guesses.

The brine electrolysis example is something under our noses. The things that Isaac Newton wrote about are examples we can trust even though we were not there, because we can duplicate them, because Newton was found to be a trustworthy person, and because others of his day corroborated them after they heard and saw from Newton. The things that we don't know from Newton's day are the things that were never reported by Newton or anybody else. When we see some of these things that happened back then, we can make educated guesses about them, but beyond the actual things we see, we are only guessing, even though the guesses are educated guesses.

The point is, until we KNOW about the actual truth of scientific extrapolations, until we know about the things of the distant past by going there and seeing, or by eye witness reports from other people who were there and saw, the only thing we can know is what is right under our noses.

For example, Big Bang may have happened. But it is just a story because nobody knows that there wasn't something else that happened, something else that makes us think that there was a big bang, but something else that was NOT a big bang, yet produced end results that look just the same as results that would have been produced by a big bang if it were a big bang that had caused them.

We simply do not know for sure. So, let's stop parading things as science that are only guesses.

I'm 26,000 years old.  A few posts up, you mentioned that nobody was around 25,000 years ago to verify things.

Well, I'm telling you I'm 26,000 years old.  What now?  Surely you wouldn't rely on evidence to suggest I might actually be in my 20's or 30's, would you?

Wow! You have a neighbor who is like 3,500 years old? Do you think he is telling the truth? Usually the women want to go the other direction... younger rather than older.

We all know why parts of the Bible are locked in the Vatican. The best parts were picked and published. Enough now, that is off topic.
Celestio, please put him on ignore and let's get back on track.


The problem is that some things just stay in the 'research phase'. We've seen lots of examples, and lots of news appearing online. Ranging from battery technology and "elixirs of youth" that never showed up.
Stem cell research is the right way to go. The question is, are we shifting enough funds towards it? When will we see something that is ready for use?

I could also say my nextdoor neighbor named Moses, is very similar to Moses from the bible... Your statement means absolutely nothing.

Except that Isaiah in the Dead Sea Scrolls is very similar to the current Isaiah. So things haven't changed in the Bible.

Have you ever heard of that game where the teacher says something to one person the class, and by the time whatever was said reaches everyone in the class, it's something totally different from what the teacher originally said? That's what the bible is.

Show me some science the bible has in it. So called Prophecy can be found in any book, even Dr Seus, it's a technique where a computer collects words on a page and creates "prophetic statements" out of the text. Don't get fooled kiddo.

If you are talking about the Bible, the reports in the Bible are eye witness reports. The strong tradition of the whole nation of Israel says that the reports are true. And if you knew anything about the fastidiousness of Israel, you would see that their traditions are nothing to sneeze at. In addition, there is much science and prophesy in the Bible that has been proven true. You need to look into it a bit before you make goofy claims.

As I said before. You prefer to believe in a book without any evidence put into it to back up it's statements, rather than things that have been peer reviewed and tested by researches all over the world. In fact, go become a archaeologist and you can do these things yourself, such as finding out the age of rocks and plants, etc.


The whole point is that you believe in something purely from faith, which requires no evidence and are things only fools do. You do not use reason. It's like you're walking around life with your eyes closed, even though you have the chance to open them up. If you believe in god, believe in said god from logic and reason.

There you go again, with the character assassination theme. You don't have a real answer, so you go and use character assassination.

BADecker, you are the dumbest person I've met in my life, and that's saying something. I really hope you're trolling and don't actually believe the crap that you type...I really do.
