On Religion

I choose science and logic over superstition.
reminds me of a @jo13 shot from a day or so ago.

So why is E always equal to m squared? Why not cubed? Good dim like photo!

E=mc^2 is a version of Einstein's Relativity Equation; Einstein, himself, was a very religious person

@soren Nice Jake!
@maggiemae There is a lot to this equation. In essence it is saying that the energy of a object is equal to the "sum" of all the mass of the object multiplied by the square of the speed of light. In differential calculus one speeds a fair amount of time working to prove and manipulate this equation along with many other "taken for granted" simple and widely used equations.

Fan flipping tastic
And couldn't agree more.

On 22 March 1954 Einstein received a letter from Joseph Dispentiere, an Italian immigrant who had worked as an experimental machinist in New Jersey. Dispentiere had declared himself an atheist and was disappointed by a news report which had cast Einstein as conventionally religious. Einstein replied on 24 March 1954:
It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it

@gigiz LOL!

Have you delved in quantum physics Jake? I thought they had gone past this equation? @mikegifford
I think it funny that the more we think know the more we find out we don't, I prefer to leave it to Wonder.

@bobfoto So it does!

Don't understand the maths but love the sentiment and the photo. Fav.

@kali66 Quantum physics does present many problems for relativity on the sub atomic level.
December 8th, 2013  
Everything I know about quantum physics and relativity I learned from The Big Bang Theory! Bazinga! Fave!

@kali66 @soren Many years ago when I was doing some research/work at UC Berkeley (re-flood of nuclear reactors), we referred to getting your PhD as just Piled Higher and Deeper - and there was another saying that if you stayed around to get your PhD you would slowly know more and more about less and less until you finally knew nothing at all....go figure ;-)

@mikegifford Like your concept here - and your explanation of PHD - hehe!

@jo13 - you're not so hairy eh?

Great selfie for the topic. Despite growing up in the conservative Midwest, my choice is the same as yours.

I thought I commented on this already, alas I did not.... I love the focus and concept here. Your processing is awesome!
