    Yes. But your test for life results in myriad false positives. Meaning it's not a good test.
    Heat does not mean soul.

    Reported for a 2nd example within a day of failing to cite the original source which at #1 hit on a quick web search seems to be:
    http://www.rogerdarlington.me.uk/nighthawk/?p=17399
    In this instance amounting to plagiarism.

    I got it from an E-Mail sent to me by a mate, my obsessive friend!!!

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    God's plan for ageing:
    Most seniors never get enough exercise so in his wisdom God decreed that seniors become forgetful so they would have to search for their glasses, keys and other things thus doing more walking. And God looked down and saw that it was good.

    Then God saw there was another need. In his wisdom he made seniors lose coordination so they would drop things requiring them to bend, reach & stretch. And God looked down and saw that it was good.

    Then God considered the function of bladders and decided seniors would have additional calls of nature requiring more trips to the bathroom, thus providing more exercise. God looked down and saw that it was good.

    So if you find as you age, you are getting up and down more, remember it’s God’s will. It is all in your best interest even though you mutter under your breath.

    Nine Important Facts To Remember As We Grow Older:

    #9 Death is the number 1 killer in the world.
    #8 Life is sexually transmitted.
    #7 Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.
    #6 Men have 2 motivations: Hunger and hanky panky, and they can't tell them apart. If you see a gleam in his eyes, make him a sandwich.
    #5 Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks, months, maybe years.
    #4 Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in the hospital, dying ofnothing.
    #3 All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.
    #2 In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird, and people take Prozac to make it normal.
    #1 Life is like a jar of jalapeno peppers. What you do today may be a burning issue tomorrow.

    Don't ignore this message. This is your only warning.
    """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

    And you say you don't have an agenda!!!

    Let me put it in a way you will understand , there is a capsule of dark matter , so now we have an entity and that capsule is the soul. So as science is familiar with dark matter it should not be to difficult to understand.

    My 'agenda' here is to hold you or anyone else to account in regards to basic honesty. You should at the least have mentioned it was lifted from your mate's email. Failure to do so still amounts to plagiarism since you otherwise give the impression that ditty was your original thoughts. It was owing to it being uncharacteristic of your writing abilities that got my suspicion up - hence the web search. Given I rarely frequent this section of SF, can only wonder as to how many other instances have occurred.

    Your agenda is obvious and evidenced by the silly provocative titles of your anti GR/gravitational wave threads that have now died.
    And your silly unscientific ID carryings on in the science sections, also explains much.

    Again you resort to both using words without regard to proper context, and improperly dragging in totally off-topic subjects as foolish attack-as-defense tactic.
    The threads died as many other thread here died - they got derailed early on and were never allowed to recover. Notwithstanding your devious slant.
    'Unscientific' according to some prevailing dogma's definition. Your own contribution there was to mindlessly flood with repetitive cut and paste.
    Now do try and not derail this thread with further cringe-worthy deflections.

    You will find that the first person to go off topic was yourself with your emotional warp drive opposition mention.......
    The purpose of life? sure my friend, what do you reckon?
    Anything paranormal, supernatural obviously is unscientific which as I suggested much to your disdain in the other thread, mean that with the scientific answers of the BB and evolution of space and time, matter, planets, stars, abiogenisis and evolution of life, it's obvious that the old Carl Sagan adage, we are all just star dust, is the obvious scientific out come.

    Trying to 'remain on topic' while actually being off-topic. Your choice. Sigh.

    And yet you continue to sulk and refuse to answer the question...ie, the purpose of life. OK, how about your view on the purpose of life my friend?

    Got it

    Capsule of Dark Matter EQUALS
    entity EQUALS
    capsule of Dark Matter EQUALS
    soul

    Any idea of the numbers?

    ie how many scientists trying to understand Dark Matter against the number of scientists trying to understand soul.

    I haven't 'refused' anything. Up to your usual skewed comments. I jumped in solely to point out an act of plagiarism - nothing more. But now that you have so kindly and respectfully asked my opinion...
    Ha ha - only kidding. I have no firm position as to if there is some ultimate purpose, but suspect there is some 'higher purpose' game being played out with us as hapless participants. An opinion, nothing more.

    You have certainly avoided answering the question in my opinion, for fear of being put in a compromising position.
    And no, no act of plagiarism at all: I posted an E-Mail and for other reasons as someone who questioned your own honesty and integrity, you have taken exception and like another old friend of mine, are doing your best to get back...
    I could say grow up, but it would be wasted bandwidth.

    Yes an opinion, nothing more nothing less, and a cop out as well.

    How is it 'a cop out'?

    As an avid supporter of the non scientific aspect of ID, how is it not a cop out?
    But that's OK, that's your right, as unscientific as it is.

    Oh great

    Just what I wanted to hear

    Very uplifting

    Someone suspects there is a higher purpose game being played out with my life

    And the cherry on top, I get called a hapless participant

    Well pardon me if I don't like to play this game anymore

    Where is the exit?

    I guess for someone who is enamored with science as a substitute religion, but is incapable of either doing or understanding any real science, that sort of line is to be expected. Still - you should make an effort to at least appear coherent and reasonably on-topic. You asked for my opinion on 'purpose of life'. i gave a short and to the point answer. Now you run with this kind of nonsense 'cop out' talk. It's sad and an indictment of SF's general standards that it can be expected someone will now leap to your aid this thread too. [stop press - it's already happened! The cat is back]

    That's quite childish and sill qreeus and you know it.
    You have done much whinging about sciforums for various self motivated reasons.
    What are you here for?
    In the meantime new discoveries, advancements, research etc, such as alternate propulsion methods including warp capabilities, metallic hydrogen research, and many others will continue.
