@Drewski4343 and yes, quite clearly

Anyways, I have had and have launched rockets before.

har

The two are different but do mix a lot

Religion and philosophy

that's a world record photo, I'm afraid.

Those of course are always smaller than nominal )))

Well, the two often build off the other

Think of Daoism

Lmao, that shits fake

Religion has it's own building blocks

Look at the ocean

Philosophy uses them

You can see the three lines.

*The problem is that the standards to test many ideas like these are meet the experimental requirements are too out of this world for us to do. Too high energy levels would be needed. Then again, some theories have been at least partially tested.*

I'd say those blocks are often interchangeable

Which stemmed first, well, is a question of philosophy itself.

Whether we believe religion or philosophy came first

Personally, I tend to think they are generally far more similar

Than we generally give credence to.

That's a decent opinion to hold

Well, then what happens is that it ceases being a theory and becomes philosophy @Metallica

I understand why you'd think that

Most Western religion is going to be making metaphysical claims, so it's inherently philosophical in nature

This is actually what happened to Quantum Entanglement for a time

I think in general people also use too narrow of a definition for philosophy

Yes but QE was proved

It was, when a way to prove it was determined

But that took 50 years

Yes

And it was well after the death of both people who headed each argument.

So, without a way to prove one side right or wrong in the interim...

It became philosophy

That is how it is supposed to work, at the least.

It isn't a demeaning statement either, it just is acknowledging we lack a way to prove it at present.

But yes, on my previous point, if you wanted to and had the resources you could launch a rocket into space right now.

Or at least high enough to see curvature

35km should suffice for that, either way.

The everyday person isn't going to have the resources for it

An everyday person at present doesn't go to space.

At present?
