Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory

I could say the same about CNN, its a point of view. I'm not saying I support either, because I don't. The truth is somewhere in the middle.

Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory

They just wanted to say "naked" while not understanding anything about the meaning in context.

The nakedness of a black hole has absolutely nothing to to with the amount of gas around it, but everything to do with the event horizon.

Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory

Do any of you believe that black holes are portals to another realms? I do not. I believe anything that enters a BH is crushed into nothingness.

There is a difference between 'bias' in the sense of putting a spin on things that you like or don't like but still reporting them vs. making [censored] up to suit your political agenda. Fox does indeed literally lie to promote their chosen cause -- the Republican party. Most recent slimy tactics:

1) Before the 2006 elections they sneakily tried to make people think that Foley was a Democrat, and never acknowledged their subterfuge even when caught and called out.

"INCREDIBLE! FOX 'NEWS' LABELS FOLEY AS DEM DURING O'REILLY FACTOR!"

Desperate Times, Desperate Measures

2) Once the election was lost they desperately tried to show that the 'terrorists' were celebrating over the Democratic victory -- so desperate that a senior VP in the news division sent out a memo explicitly calling for his reporters to find such celebrations or anything that could be interpreted as such. And it was leaked.

3) They simply made up a story that Obama had attended a radical Islamic school when he lived as a child in Indonesia. Other news agencies simply investigated -- sent someone to see the school he attended. It was an ordinary secular state-run school. No acknowledgement of this 'mistake' either. Just silence after exposure.

4) Oh, except that they then claimed that the story about Obama had come from Hilary Clinton's campaign staff. Blatantly trying to stir up strife within the Democratic party.

(Yes, same story debunks both claims)

And you still want to claim that Faux News is a news organization???

Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory

Baron, they all lie. NBC has been caught and so has CBS, CNN, and ABC. ALL news organizations lie, they also make mistakes, and from time to time they have even made some huge *** whoopers and been called to carpet for them. Enough please. This is a free nation, if you don't like Fox, don't watch. Most of us are adult enough to make decisions for ourselves and are quite good at faretting out BS from fact. I myself won't watch NBC news at all. I prefer ABC and Fox, but mostly ABC.

So what would happen if a Black hole, say a very small one about the size of a pin head, came into contact with our planet?

This is true, but I think we severely disagree on the magnitude. In other words FOX goes above and beyond.

It wouldn't even get that close before the gravitation would mess everything up enough that all life would be dead.

Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory

Just think, all we know about black holes is that we don't really know crap. In fact there is so much about the universe that we don't know that to even think we know the smallest fraction of what can be known is a horribly arrogant of us.

The saying goes the more you learn the less you know. That doesn't mean we don't know anything and that doesn't mean that we can't try to learn. There are some items that are beyond our present reach, but that doesn't mean they will be forever. I'm somewhat confused as to what you're trying to say.

Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory

I guess what I am trying to say is that there is so much to learn that any one who thinks they know it all don't really know crap.

Re: OT: Study Reveals Flaw in Black-Hole Theory

Of course no one knows everything. Have you honestly met someone who thinks they do?
