Other Realms''/The Spirit etc

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Oh. Okay. Got it.

Well then here's a question. Now that they're able to detect really minute particles, infinitesimally tiny bits that make an atom's nucleus look like Jupiter in comparison, can we still say that if there is a spirit or soul, that it is not made up of particles of some kind?

Post Thu Feb 12, 2004 3:37 pm

yes we can say that it isn't particles of some kind. I'm sure you do this just to bait me, Ed

as I'm re-all-y tired right now after a 15 & 1/2hr shift (yeah really that's what commisssioning installs are like) I don't want to go into too much detail, but more tomorrow when I'm awake, and the call of Mrs Taw isn't quite so strongly alluring she has to pay me for her Ebay habit somehow...

I almost believed spirit stood for ethanol
P.S.

It's better to be a worldwide known drunkard than an anonymous alcoholic!

@Zlo

Well, if you consider that most of the names of the first distilled alcoholic drinks in a culture all mean the same thing, "water of life" in the respective local language involved, spirit does mean alcohol more rightly than not!

The true meaning of life is in two words: Beautiful Blondes!
Sorry, someone had to say it.

Locutus and Eh_Steve - Another three words; "Stay on topic".

Wow, that was worthy of Fear Factor!

*Cowers in fear* OKAY!
Hence another meaning of life: Staying on Topic, You have to cross the bridge instead of wandering around the river looking for a nicer, quicker crossing.

@Taw

Even light has has its particles. While a form of electromagnetic radiation, as I recall, this radiation is made up of photons.... which are particles.

Post Fri Feb 13, 2004 9:46 pm

no, photons are not "points" they have wave like properties as well.
