    Is Copying Homework Justifiable When Overwhelmed by Schoolwork?

    *cough* Explain how we went to test cheating... We were talking about copying homework, start "test cheating morality" in a different topic, please.

    Defining Matter: Can You Help Me Generate Ideas?

    "Matter is anything with density." Why is that so hard to understand, unless I'm missing something?

    Is good and evil just a matter of perspective or are they fundamental truths?

    But what uses make it "good", and what uses make it "evil"? Good and evil is all subjective, and the majority rules on this. Majority of people think: Killing is bad. Suicide is bad. Rape is bad. People are only judged insane because they disagree with what the majority of the world...

    An actual infinite number of marbles

    If there was a number labeled Infinity, you would not be able to comprehend it. If there isn't one, there isn't. We can't see infinity, so the question makes no sense.

    Pros of Video Games: Debate Prep for Class

    Educational games are obviously positive, but are not the main flow of games, therefore not a large factor in the debate.

    Can We Really Grasp the Concept of Infinity in the Universe?

    hmm, maybe I'm just confused about the "dots into line" part. Anyway, time is the expression of motion, I believe. If there is no time, there can be no motion... can there?

    Can We Really Grasp the Concept of Infinity in the Universe?

    Infinity is unlimitedness, or a never-ending amount of something. By the way, I heard this definition of a line: A line is an infinite amount of points connected, no matter how long or short. How can this be? Wouldn't Planck length be the minimum amount of distance between each dot...

    Can large scale warfare be abolished in the next 100 years?

    First of all, in order to stop war, you need to be absolutely sure what causes it. Here's a small list: Religion Politics Race Morales Greed Those are the 5 major ones, tell me if there are more, and think of ways that those could be removed. Genetic behavioral modification would...

    Is omnipotence intrinsically paradoxical?

    I don't believe in the idea of an omnipotent being, so i'll let my friends' words be typed. (Parenthesis are my notes) "God CAN create a rock he can't lift; He'd create it, then lift it." (Someone explain this to me?) "God is everywhere, encompassing anything that can possibly exist" (Same...

    Can We Really Grasp the Concept of Infinity in the Universe?

    I gave roughly an hour's thought to infinity, and came up with these statements and questions; If infinity exists, where would it go? The only infinity that would make sense is the size of the universe, because you couldn't have an infinite amount of any matter without it taking up literally...

    An actual infinite number of marbles

    In order to label the infinite number of marbles, you would have to start at 1, and keep going up a number to label the next one. This is simply a disguised "will adding reach infinity?" problem, only you're labelling instead of adding. Oh, and the answer is no, because you can always add...

    Schools Grade point vs. achievements in college

    A person with a 3.5 GPA and extracurricular(sp?) activities can easily trump a 4.0 GPA without a life. However, if the person with a 4.0 is simply brilliant, and still has a life, they can do it. But also, it is a question of application, as you said. Some people will memorize everything...

    Can You See the Entire Universe Before Entering a Black Hole?

    Okay, so singularities, being 0-dimensional, have no "events", but motion IS possible between Planck time? The theory that I read (black hole stops time) was wrong? Figures... Meh. I understand the wormhole part, though. ^_^ I'm going to look at info related to this, and maybe I'll...

    If matter = Energy, and matter can be turned into energy

    Is there any information available on the possibility of reversing that process? Simplified: Can you turn energy into matter?
