Rants and WTF are you talking about and Coronavirus!

[QUOTE=Pessimist;2480373]And sorry, there is tons of scientific research on this, and one does not have to watch any YouTube videos to know about these things. More important is to actually understand what is already existing in today's scientific realm.[/QUOTE]I will not waste time responding to all of your post. At least since most of it is well answered in the 1982 documentary regarding the expanding earth theory that I linked you. YouTube is a great site where people can share information. You may not like YouTube, but it can have many purposes. For both good and bad. In this documentary, a professor at the University of Tasmania, who wrote a book on the expanding earth theory is interviewed. And he explains it all. Quite simple. He also was a lecturer at Yale.

Now to the idea of beliefs. The argument the critics usually come with against this growing earth theory; which is in fact nearly 150 years old, is that we do not know where all the new matter comes from. But I would argue that this might either be related to some quantum physical black / white hole phenomenon. Or some higgs boson concentration where gravity is higher. Or a combination of both.

But I hope for the sake of your own credibility that we can agree on one thing: physics are jammed full of theories. Proof only goes so far.

This however has not been proven either way, but I am leaning towards saying the expanding earth theory has the highest chance of being right. 80-20.

Pessimist:

1. How do you explain the Mars surface with the tectinic drift theory without any expansion of the planet?

As we do see a rift opening, but there are no signs of any plates moving underneath another plate.

Or are Earth a one of a kind? Just like the old idea where we believed the earth was the center of the solar system?

2. How do you explain the size of the dinosaurs unless earths gravity was far weaker in the past? Or perhaps even that the 100 million year old bones themselves also have expanded since they died?

Some of whom would have dangerous neck injuries just from turning 90 degrees.

3. If the continents that formed Pangaea have moved apart since then (as in the Atlantic ocean, Indian ocean etc), how can the pacific ocean still be almost half a hemisphere?

Remember the Pangaea continent alone was just over half a hemisphere by itself too. We see that in earth samples showing where the poles and equator was.

4. All the seafloor is very newly formed on the earth. American geological satellites have confirmed this. And hardly any ocean floor is more than 50 million years old. Except for parts of the Mediterranean. And there are no subduction zones as mountains grow where the expansion is on land instead of on the seafloor. In fact, all the most recent seafloor are on mountain ridges underneath the oceans. But the land crust is making it harder for the lava to break through, so we get a bulge or a spike upwards instead.

5. Why would only the universe expand at an accelerated pace, and not everything within it? Are you saying there are no universal laws of physics? Or does you physics only work where you allow it to?

6. The amount of books written on religion and how the earth was the center of the universe was in the thousands before Gallileo Gallilei got hanged for questioning the beliefs of thousands of scholars.

[QUOTE=Pistons;2480382]USA got shit terrible football teams. So nobody in their right mind would ever get paid 1 billion $ from football.

This very idea says it all, you have absolutely NO idea what football even is.

And no, football is not some handball with breaks every 20 seconds like what you play in the states. Calling a national league for the World Series etc. And Superbowl? What is this? Some childish game? Reminds me of Sega Mega Drive. Might as well name the contest 'Super Mega Duper Galactic Finals'.

P.S. : I admit I am clueless regarding that sport you play. So just admit you are clueless regarding football too! Because you are.[/QUOTE]I like soccer too and I do pretend like I know what I am talking about when I sit and watch these games in FKK lounges LOL. However, I can never understand why Messi is supposed to be the best of all time when he can't win shit playing for his country. And I secretly admit I do enjoy seeing the penalty shootouts after 90 minutes of tied score. BTW, why can't the English ever win anything and please no tall tales of some long gone glory days eons ago.

But yes, real football is played in USA while they do play authentic soccer in Europe and a more aesthetic game down in Brazil (used to).

Peace.

Flights resuming from IAD to Frankfurt und Wien. What's up with a travel ban to EU?

[URL]https://wtop.com/business-finance/2020/09/lufthansa-austrian-airlines-resume-dulles-service/[/URL][/QUOTE]Just checked my news feed and it's true. United plans to start flying to Frankfurt again. This is indeed good news and a step in the right direction for US mongers. But we still need for the clubs to open again, and for quarantine restrictions to be lifted as well. Until those two things happen too, I won't be journeying to Germany on vacation.

Peace.[/QUOTE]1. Messi is the best of all time in my view mainly because of 3 things: First, his constant overview of the game and where every player is. Second, his frequency in how he moves with the ball (not to be confused with speed). Thirdly, his touch of the ball. A combination of these factors makes him better than Ronaldo and others. It is just bad luck that his teammates, and coaches have not been the best always. But that is how it is, especially with national teams.

2. Because the English mentality of tacklings work less and less at higher levels. And thus English football players get brainwashed early into a type of play that is not too efficient at the very top. I assume it would be better for British youngsters to have other focus in their heads while playing. But, it is objectively looking better now for them than in a very long time.

On #5, the answer is gravity. And the part about accelerated inflation applies to empty space, and as I said "it is just A theory". That theory says the empty space between galaxies is getting stretched. It is a very difficult concept to understand. But you are just throwing whatever questions come to your mind, instead of understanding what the inflation theory even is implying.

Have a nice day. Cheers.

I think you said your field is anthropology or some other science. For sure it is not Physics and the above sentences will not be written by anyone who even has taken high school level physics. Again, I am sorry to be harsh because normally I enjoy reading your posts. Cheers.

Maybe someone can chime in with die schweiz situation? Is there a self-quarantine in Zurich? Teuer oder nicht, Globe is starting to sound better and better LOL.

I hope right now while 1000+ Americans die per day, we Germans don't want anybody from those super spreader countries in our country.

Our numbers are good and I hope it stays this way until the vaccination begins!
