But then how big is the universe?

What is outside the universe? Colorless nothingness ishness?

The universe can't be endlessly big. But it's probably self-contained just as the earth's surface: Once you start to travel straightforward within the universe, you'll land where you've started. But noone knows how big the universe is. Maybe there are also other universes, but who cares?

The universe is probably like this:

Did you miss it?
Some classes were plain boring in which nothing trully stupid happened, other times I was too lazy to post. If by any chance you are still interested, I will post today's theme: "We are creationist".
OK, ready? Let's go.
We were tought about how humans were created and our teacher wanted to make us clear that:

Only two theories about the origin of humans made it to today's society (by that he means that those theories are popular around). Darwin's theory, the evolutionist one, which unfortunatelly is being foolishly taught in schools and other place, people not realising the major error that they are forced to learn and the creationist theory, which by being the oldest one, the most plausible and the only true one (question, does making it a thing older, automagically make it more plausible?). I will tell you a truth that most people don't know about (god, I swear and I don't invent anything, so prepare for it): Charles Darwin, before his death informed his affiliated that everything he researched is fake and was only a way to get attention and money, now regretting the decision, however his affiliates decided this was an easy way to make profit and abused this lie that even today we hear of it. It's impossible for individuals to jump from one species to another, evolution applies to individual of certain species, not between them. If you take humans, isolate them in a forest, they will eventually evolve, grow hair, grow stronger teeth and various others menal and phyisical changes, but that doesn't create a new species, they are still humans. (FYI it takes years of evolution to create a new species, hope you won't expect to isolate a human and obtain different "evulution" from him in just 2 years or so).

Like every class from now on he repeats to us that "we are creationist" and we shouldn't believe "everything that is told in schools"(sure I won't, oh wait a second...) and that scientists aren't really scientists, but various people from political organisation or any other kind of organisation that is planning to guide us to hell and take us away from "God's word".

>There is enough proof to be certain that species do change over time. There's barely any to prove that we all descend from a single primordial being, or Last universal ancestor.
>There's other theories on the existence of life, including aliens, other religions, spontaneous generation...
>Darwin's last words were, to his family, "I am not the least afraid of death – Remember what a good wife you have been to me – Tell all my children to remember how good they have been to me". He also repeatedly said to "It's almost worth while to be sick to be nursed by you". He died of coronary thrombosis.
>What he talked about is, well, ordinary genetics.
>This guy can be against evolution, but he really sucks at giving a good -and real- argument against it.
>This guy doesn't know what science is either.
>This guy is also veeeeeeeeeeery paranoid if he thinks there's tons of people out there plotting to "guide people to hell and take us away from God's word".

If this is how most religion teachers are, I can see why people don't want to be christian.

Now, for the heck of it, have another picture of Master Hand.



If it makes you feel better, imagine your teacher is Mewtwo.

The thing is, our history teacher (although quite religious herself) complained about the fact that a (orthodox) priest is teaching religion in our school, rather than somebody who shouldn't have any affiliation with any church and teach "a bit of every religion in an equal matter". She also complained about him coming in his priest outfit rather than normal clothes, pointing that:

coming dressed like that he automatically drags attention and he imposes his "teachings" by showing he is somebody from the "domain" and nobody should contradict him. I would like to ask how many of you actually confronted your religion teacher about something that you didn't agree with?

She brings a point, and she isn't the only one saying so, my history teacher from two years ago said the same thing, biology teacher aswell and so on. First, relgion classes are given to us from the ministry of education so one school cannot change much (unless it's private, but the only two private schools I saw around were christian (and wouldn't pay taxes for a school, no matter how "better" than the public ones are)). We have a different religion teacher last year, this one wasn't affiliated with the church at all, yet he still needed to parrot all the things we "should know about", but it was a little bit better that he didn't "impose" his ideas by using the fact that he is or not a priest and so and seemed way more open minded than this one. In the last period, parents actually started to reject religion classes and their children do anything else in this classes, but again most of them are either of other confession or religion, only quite a few orthodox ones rejecting the classes (and when so, they claim to be of an entirely different religion, so people will not ask further why that and this and so).
If you want to dig further, in my class there are two protestants, they decided to stick around on the first classes, until our teacher showed a bit of disgust seeing that they aren't orthodox (he pointed to them that it's such a fatal mistake not to "make the cross" and deny the "power of holy paintings" and also "confronted" them about several "mistakes" their confession did and how he "prays for them" (ooooooooh god, if I was one of them, I'd punch this guy in the face). They decided to be volunteers for the school during that class and so they don't stick around anymore, our teacher is cleary more disturbed by that.

The power of holy paintings.

Yes. I want to punch this guy in the face too.

Exodus 20:4-6 wrote: Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

If you show that passage to your priest I'll give you one thousand NanGold. :3 It may or may not be worth anything

Yeah about that, well he defended himself claiming that they are not simply "graven image", but rather "a portal that leads directly to the person represtented in the painting". To me personally, it's personally the same thing, furthermore that they are painted in bizantine style (apparently, a little bit of human body was way too much to show).

A portal. Riiiiiiiiiiiight.

Anyway, here's your 1000 NanGold. I sincerely hope that you can stand that teacher of yours for the remainder of the year.

You're are probably wondering what you can do with that NanGold...

Question how Jesus was not a woman with Turner Syndrome, nor was Eve a hermaphrodite, or a male with XXYY or Klinefelter Syndrome.

Also does this mean that we are all genetically mutated, because Eve and Cain were mother and son and then it was brother and sister and father and daughter....way too much incest to make sense.
