magnets: no one knows how they work.

Name: Anonymous 2010-07-08 15:32

It's really strange when you think about it.  We grew up with magnets, so they don't seem as weird as we should think.  Magnets are god damn peculiar, and no one knows how they work.

Actually you just don't know a lot of people do.

Magnetic fields you dumby.

No one does.

All "magnetics fields" are is a term to describe what we observe.  The term does not tell us how what we observe actually happens.  Think about it:  a "magnetic field" is where you observe magnetism.  So what.

By your logic, we don't "understand" "how" anything "works".  We just observe patterns and use them to our advantage.

I think they're powered by miracles.

Oh come on.  We can do better than say that the way magnets work is that they work by working in the space that they work in.

magnets are known to work via whatever construct you wish to conceive in order to understand it.
It's the way everything non-human is understood by humans.

I think I accidentally the whole analytical process.

They are not demons.  They are erect-rons.

Some guy posted it on /gif/ once with a "Fucking magnets, how do they work?" gif, even though it was just /gif/, not like /sci/ or something, everyone, including myself, freaked the fuck out, I have the thread saved somewhere.

that's like saying cutting your hair is bad because you saw a bad haircut.

People are not hair. That is an illogical comparison. Ergo, your conclusion is invalidated.

Please try again if you wish to prove your intelligence.

You can keep breaking something down forever. In this way we'll never understand the full fundamentals of anything, magnets and all.

It's called an analogy, genous.

It's easy. Look here:
Magnets -> Powered by miracles
Magnets -> Some lies spread by scientists
Now, using Occams Razor, which story is easiest to understand?

holy crap! Bout time someone points out some fundamentals.

There was a guy who took a circle and drew lines from the center out and then drew another larger circle and found that the distance between the two circles also generated an equally increasing distance between the lines. It doesn't matter how many times we divide anything, it goes on for infinite. That is why I believe God to be greater than all of us, because God is in the details. And as we all know, everything in physical reality is all about details including our physical makeup.

Totally bullshit.  The drawing of circles has nothing to do with the establishment of a divine entity, for which there is no evidence anyway.

However, the it can be employed as a gateway to your inner mind.

purchase a fine drafting compass.
produce a circle of radius 4 cm.
contemplate your creation.
sense that your creation contemplates you in return.
at that instant of mutual contemplation, you will enter the interior of your mind's image of the circle.
you will be in your inner mind.

moron, re-read >>32, and look at the words "I believe" and what you inferred as "IS". Hence you will recognize that what I am saying is about me and not about your known set of beliefs.

Just because my beliefs don't coincide with what you know or what IS known means I'm automatically wrong? That is the prime-example of a closed-mind.

also, the mechanism to compare what is perceived or learned with what is known is an illogical comparative process designed to keep you seated comfortably within the confines of what is familiar, safe, and comfortable for we don't know everything yet we dare to compare somethings so grandiose with something so limited as personal experience.

means I'm automatically wrong?

wrong |rô ng |
adjective
1 not correct or true : that is the wrong answer.

true |troō|
adjective ( tru•er , tru•est )
1 in accordance with fact or reality : a true story

automatic |ˌôtəˈmatik|
adjective
1 (of a device or process) working by itself with little or no direct human control : an automatic kettle that switches itself off when it boils | calibration is fully automatic.

You harbor false beliefs under your own power.  You are automatically wrong.

No divine entity was mentioned, genious.  The drawing is not a necessary step, but provides a focus of attention from which the inner mind can be entered.
