What Makes Us One of a Kind?

Daily writing promptWhich aspects do you think makes a person unique?View all responses So, what truly makes a person unique? To me, it’s the beautiful ensemble woven from the different threads of our holistic being. It is the unique way the fusion of a body, mind, and soul live together in every being, each of such vital threads shaping the unique picture that is us. Photography by Raffaello…

Atheism cannot explain why there are so many intricate physical laws and processes that must be in place for the universe to exist and function as it does. In this sense, there is an absurd situation where the effect is greater than the cause. In truth, this is the one time the effect has no cause! But it is greater to exist than not exist, is it not? The effect exists for the atheist but the cause does not? Magic?

Walls are a good way to keep a roof suspended in midair; without them we'd be forced to rely on anti-gravitational force fields to keep a ceiling above us, force fields that are at once costly, harmful to the environment, and violate all physical laws as we know them.

“After a series of experiments, James Mitchell, 60-year-old farmer of Grimsby, Ontario, has announced that he has discovered new mechanical laws which he says will save 50 per cent In time and 100 per cent in power. He is shown in the above picture with the device he has constructed.”

Fermat's principle

Fermat's principle leads to Snell's law; when the sines of the angles in the different media are in the same proportion as the propagation velocities, the time to get from P to Q is minimized. In optics, Fermat's principle or the principle of least time, named after French mathematician Pierre de Fermat, is the principle that the path taken between two points by a ray of light is the path that can be traversed in the least time. This principle is sometimes taken as the definition of a ray of light. However, this version of the principle is not general; a more modern statement of the principle is that rays of light traverse the path of stationary optical length with respect to variations of the path. In other words, a ray of light prefers the path such that there are other paths, arbitrarily nearby on either side, along which the ray would take almost exactly the same time to traverse. Fermat's principle can be used to describe the properties of light rays reflected off mirrors, refracted through different media, or undergoing total internal reflection. It follows mathematically from Huygens' principle (at the limit of small wavelength). Fermat's text Analyse des réfractions exploits the technique of adequality to derive Snell's law of refraction and the law of reflection. Fermat's principle has the same form as Hamilton's principle and it is the basis of Hamiltonian optics. More details Android, Windows
