Video Description:
The first in a line of videos addressing frequently asked questions, and great science questions.
Yes, I'm aware of the spelling error made on the very first slide in the very fourth word. Epic fail on my part. Unfortunately, I tend to read over my mistakes when I stare at something for hours. It shall be preserved as a testament to my fallibility :3
*A note about "true colour" images. Though the images are produced to represent true or approximately true colours, you will often find they appear white to your eye through a telescope. There are a couple of reasons for this. Firstly, light from the stars and most other objects is just too faint to excite the colour receptors in your eyes, and secondly your brain is extremely capable of 'white balancing' what you see. To demonstrate this to yourself, try taking a picture of a fluorescent lamp the next time you see one. Though it appears white to your eyes, your camera will show you that it is actually green!

Where exactly did I say the (complete) definition of religion X was limited to simply NOT being any religion from the set of all other religions?
All I said was that there are additive properties, ajudaic, a-islamic, abuddhist etc. which can be tagged quite validly onto any religion other than the one associated directly with the tag.
"Atheism is "without gods""; Christianity, for example, is "without other gods" and is thus lacking those other gods/religious beliefs.
Get it?
"Does that mean you can define ... Aislam?" along with a lot of other A*'s to each and every religion.
A muslim who has never heard of christianity is by definition, an Achristian, as they lack belief in christianity, they lack all knowledge of it so how can they believe?
No one in existance will ever have known all the religions that ever existed, so everyone is an A* to some extent.
I've read an article how there has been a supernova observed this year. I'll find it a bit later, think you might be interested.
Too bad. What with the definitions for time and existence and all, I'd have thought that Hawking's no-boundary proposal would per default be more accurate, the universe not beginning at t=0, but at lim t=>0. But I'll keep looking.
Of course I am. I think it's one of the more interesting topics. I was just wondering if you knew what the latest developments in this area were, or what your own opinion on the matter is.
Hail Xenu!
when people say we evoled from monkeys the mean we evoled from a older version of monkey that evolded into both humans and modern monkeys you see today.
(sorry, I'm sane, just trolling)
It hurts to laugh that hard. :D
Regardless, even if we did evolve from chimpanzees or something, that does not mean that all chimpanzees would suddenly morph into humans.
This is best explained by Thunderf00t's analogy: most Americans came from Europe, but there are still Europeans.
Let's see, two things I wanted to say...
Oh, first, I believe it was Potholer54debunks who mentioned in a video that some families or towns of humans have evolved the ability to see colors in the UV spectrum.. One of them should bust out a telescope!
Secondly, just wanted to say that I correctly guessed all the true/false color images :)
