Updates: Media (lyrics) has a new layout. I could never figure out how to lay it out, but it's easier to navigate now. I'm still working on a better duplicate Mamblog mod. I'm trying to make submittions easier but the poetry form died for some reason. Quizzes are also on their way from the old site. Joomla content isn't very code friendly so I'm having to rewrite old code. You can still click on News > AH v21 > Screen if you wish to use the quizzes.

The essay Einstein and the Absolute Beneath the Relative by Stanley L. Jaki is a great read. I've been getting a lot of "religious" emails from friends who don't know or else don't understand my theories on religion. It's frustrating having friends and acquaintances with wildly opposing views, especially on major subjects like science and religion. Most people I know or hang around spend Sundays at church or believe in some sort of greater meaning. I never was one for Einstein's Theory of Relativity. Even in college physics classes I got lost in the impossibility of the idea. I failed to find the reasoning behind it, so using a theory I didn't believe in made solving problems based on it nearly impossible. I wish I had read this article back then, when it would have helped me put studying Relativity into the "going through the motions" category of undergraduate study. My professor at the time was doing research in theoretical physics, the focus of which I don't recall, and I blame some of my lack of comprehension on him. I've always preferred mathematics in the sense that I was working much less often on theoretical problems and much more on problems with a right and a wrong answer. Science is so questionable, especially physics and the universe, whereas mathematics on the typical level are absolute. Mathematics have mostly overcome the religious issues that plague science and the study of the universe and evolution. Zero and infinity, if you aren't referring to an infinite universe, are no longer argued. It all makes people like me start to wonder if religion wasn't created to control and oppress, rather than actually believed. The idea of infinity brings into question the possibility of a higher power. The possibility of infinity begs the understanding of everything which eventually leads to the impossibility of a “creator” or some other than scientific and calculable “meaning.” In my opinion. ;-)
They also give away cold hard cash, Plasma TVs, MP3 Players like the iPod Touch, iPod Video, iPod Nano, iPod Shuffle, Desktop Computers, iTunes Downloads, iMacs, Video Players, iPhone, XBOX 360, Nintendo Wii, Play Station 3, Sony PSP, Nintendo DS, Video Games, Cell Phones, Digital Cameras, MS Zune, & GPS Navigation Systems. I've done these before. I got my "free" iPod nano for about $50 by completing several offers but this company only makes you complete 1 offer and for some, you don't even get charged anything, maybe $1.00. Some of them are bogus, like you have to complete three offers but each of the offers requires that you spend $500 or more so you're really not getting anything free. I've learned to just view all offers BEFORE signing up for any to make sure I can fulfill them for less than $30, usually just in shipping. I can't believe this company actually gives out CASH though. I definitely need cash more than I need any new gadgets. I just got a new Motorola MOTORIZR (?) for $59 (after mail-in rebate of course). There's always a catch. You just have to be careful since all the partner offers generally auto-charge your credit card after the trial period is over so you have to stay on top of those, making sure you cancel them in time. Unless of course you actually WANT the offer.
