For those interested in Truth: I'm sure you've wondered if Heaven/Hell are real. This world seems so curropt sometimes, it's as if justice is a lie, and the bad are more often rewarded. I know it can be hard to accept that God is real, especially when it seems like all evidence points in the opposite direction. You'll never find physical evidence, no scientist is going to prove God, our universe isn't set up that way. However, there actually is a way to find him for yourself. God has given me four simple steps, via divine revelation, he's told me anyone who does them genuinely is gureenteed a revelation of their own. As it turns out these steps are scattered throughout the Bible, but for so many it's only a paper weight, so they never find them, and never get their personal revelation. These steps are the mustard seed of Faith God wants to see from us. The bare minimum amount of effort he's willing to accept before he reveals himself. God steamlined these steps for me to spread, because we're at the end. Nigh was decades ago. These steps are the absolute lowest he's willing to accept, and also the order is very important. They are, forgive your parents, brake down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read the Bible. Three books of the bible will be enough to get the revelation at step four. I recommend Genesis, Mathew, and then either Luke, Psalms, or proverbs. To be forgiven we must forgive. It's all over the Bible, both new, and old. Jesus teaches this lesson himself via parable in Mathew, but if you're not willing to search for that lesson, just read Mathew 6 14-15. We're supposed to forgive everyone, but because God knows that's hard, he makes the bare minimum forgiving your parents, because they've fed, clothed, housed, raised, loved you to some degree, and should be the easiest to forgive. Forgiveness is a huge step, and it trips up most people. Churches barley even bother to teach it's importance. Even though the Bible makes it extremely clear you cannot be saved until you do. Everyone has issues with their parents, it is for this reason, so you have someone easy to forgive. It can be harder if you have horrible parents, but just try, God will notice your efforts. This step coming first is extremely important, it basically primes your soul, gets God's attention. The order is like baking a cake. If you bake unmixed eggs, and flour, no cake. Since you can't be forgiven until you forgive, most people mess this up. Thinking falsely that asking for forgiveness is enough. It is not. The next biggest trip up is one of the worst in my opinion, actually reading the Bible for yourself. It is a necessity. God uses the time you spend reading to show you who he is, and give you important signs. Church is not enough. It's really only for community, and helping each other anyway. The denomination does not matter at all, as long as you're following what's written yourself. Although Catholics have a unique problem, in the fact that the church promotes the worship/prayer to saints. This is idolatry. The only way to the Father is though Jesus Christ. Saint Paul may have been a good person, but praying to him will lead you to Hell. I can state with absolute certainty that these steps work every time, when done with a genuine heart. It's not hard, just mean the steps when you do them. Testing God only makes him hide himself. Please, take your salvation seriously. Once you've done these four steps, God reveals himself. It won't be anything you can miss, nor misinterpretae, not signs, not feelings, but an actual one on one conversation with God. He gives you so many secrets then. Along with all the proof you'll ever need. Faith is the path to God, but once you've found him his existence should be knowledge. Faith is still extremely important, but more so in trusting his plan. Please, do these steps for yourself. Each must walk his own journey. Nobody else can get you into Heaven. I'm so serious. It's all real. See for yourself

​@@jamesmayle4712 Religions that value human life and only human life (and even then only some human life), as if it is above everything else on this earth are a bunch of hogwash. It's great that it can help people who are lacking in the moral compass department to live properly within their society however at the end of the day that's all it is. It makes no sense, why you should be allowed to consider your own life and the lives of those in your own community above all other things, sacred. I'm sure your bible has plenty of scenarios that say that this is God's choice, his plan because obviously, that's the easiest and most effective tool to shush your own thoughts and questions. Why? Because God said so. Can't question that if you're a believer now can you? It's just too convenient. It's funny really. You're born into this world, told that you stand above other livings things. Yes of course you should cherish them, but you are born to be their ruler. This community of people that you are born into believes what is right and you should live with them in harmony as they know the correct path, the one that leads to "heaven". You are allowed to kill and torture, but only those who betray the rules of your community or animals that are considered food. It is not a sin to take the life of a chicken or a cow as it cowers in fear and begs for its life, as they are beneath men and are here only to be harvested, no different from the fruits and the vegetables. Please. Get off your high horse. Just because your organism was awarded a few more brain cells than the rest, you now get to strut around as only second to the omnipotent? Let me guess, I am now in line with the devil for I speak words that seem cunning and temptful because they threaten your beliefs as they make too much sense. If there is a God, I see no reason for him to hold such a ridiculous stance. I say this as an agnostic, that if there is a God he surely will judge a being, not in face of a set of rules that were introduced to them at birth, one of many scattered around the globe, no. He will judge them based on their actions for it should be obvious what is right and what is wrong, one always feels a sense of guilt when committing acts that they know are not nice or perhaps he will not judge at all. It doesn't make much sense why livings things should be born only to be evaluated at death in the first place. edit: And another thing, what would be the point in evaluating someone based on their ability to follow the rules "God passed down"? Surely it does not prove you are a good person for if he had "passed down" a set of fake rules to test your own morality, you would have followed them instead, not knowing that they are wrong. As such the only thing getting evaluated here is your ability to be a lap dog, not whether or not you are a good person who "should be allowed into heaven". edit 2: I'm sure lying about speaking to God and leading others astray with guidelines you made up yourself is considered a sin. Now stop spamming the comments you slightly evolved ape.

[@jamesmayle4712]

@@Exarhadsgfds I'm not lying about meeting God. Everyone can do it. You've just got to put in one mustard seed of Faith. It's something even most Christans never bother to do. Faith isn't some abstract concept you have, not blind belief. It's something you do. Faith requires action. If you have Faith, you do the things God wants. Most Christans never bother to even find out what God wants. Sure, they go to church, but most churches leave out the most important teachings of Jesus. Forgiveness is always taught as being as simple as believe, ask, and receive. The biggest problem with this is that it is a direct contradiction from what the Bible says. To be forgiven, we must forgive. This is actually something extremely hard for most people. It takes a lot of self healing to truly come to a place where you can let go of all that inner baggage. Most Christans never get to this point. This means that they're not forgiven when they ask Jesus for it, and since it's not taught as important, they just go on believing they're saved their whole lives, never bothering to open their Bible and see for themselves that they're missing one of the most important requirements altogether. The vast majority of christans only bother with step two, and three. That is not enough. It's actually extremely sad. We're at a point with the highest average literacy ever recorded, and nobody wants to read. Three books of the Bible, that's the bare minimum God expects, but so many never even do that much. You may not believe me, but I have actually met God personally. He's the one who steamlined these steps for me to pass out. So that hopefully more will at least know what the bare minimum amount of effort is, and maybe not have to go to Hell. This is actually a far more complex nuaunced topic than you're willing to accept. No, it's not just about humans. That's the vast majority of unsaved Christans that give you that idea. As it turns out Christianity really does have a lot to do with animals, and our planet too. It's just that the Bible is training wheels. We're supposed to read it, while implementing its teachings, to get to the point where God can give us more information. God has put his word in our hearts. Most interpret that to be our concious, but it's actually more. For instance once you do your self healing, and you really need to, I can feel all that pain and anger seeping through your text, you literally hear the words "Jesus Christ is Lord" blasted inside your soul on repeat. I mean literally literally. Not only that, but once you complete all four of the base minimum amount of effort God expects, those four steps, you get a revelation of your own. I'm not talking about signs, feelings, prayer. I'm literally speaking about being yanked out of your body for a direct conversation with God. He gives you a lot of information once you reach this point. Starting with actual proof, more than you'll ever need, but sorry, nothing you can wave around showing people. Everyone must walk their own journey, everyone must pay their own mustard seed of Faith. There's actually complex reasons for this, and he'll explain them. Next, he's going to show you something extremely important that no one is allowed to repeat. It's not written in the Bible, the vast majority of christans would never accept it if you tried to tell them, but it's extremely True, horrible, and extraordinarily important. It's something so outrageously horrible, we're literally not allowed to think about it too much, let alone actually talk about it to each other. Let's just say Hell is vastly understated. Basically a child's interpretation. Seriously, I'm sorry, I'm literally not allowed to explain what I mean. It's actually extremely complex. God also uses this time to give you a mission. Mine is this, just warning as many people as possible via KZbin comments. The vast majority will never take me seriously, and I get a lot of hate, but for those few that might, I have to try. TBH the vast majority of all humanity go to Hell, Christans included. It's only like 5% that take God seriously enough to actually do the things he wants. Compare that to the 31.11% of the world that claims to be christian, and you'll understand why this is so extremely sad. All it takes is just four simple steps in Faith, but most won't ever even try. It is all True. See for yourself. Do those steps I mentioned.

Hey, I got a question. How many years will it take to use all the nuclear cores of nuclear missile in the world in all the gen 3 nuclear power plants? And also I heard of a design of a nuclear reactor, which isn't fully developed yet, that could theoretically use nuclear waste and irradiated material while shortening their nuclear life span. Would it be worth looking into and developing that reactor?

[@youssef-td2vb]

I don't know this for sure, but by the time humans would run out of nuclear cores and irradiated material, they probably would have developed nuclear fusion. Which really doesn't require the aforementioned materials and cores. And then we can bury the remaining irradiated material, which will take a little while. But we wouldn't have to worry about more irradiated material being produced, in nuclear fusion becomes internationalized.

[@philipfahy9658]

The key to dealing with waste is cost. So yeah, you could separate out uranium byproducts and run them through their own reactors until you get down to lead. But that requires being able to separate them out, and then repackage them into cores for their own reactors. Since we would be attempting to control the fission reaction, we can't just dump a bunch of leftover fissile material in some water and call it a day. We need to have known quantities of the isotopes so that we can keep the reaction going at the proper pace, avoiding meltdown or failure of the reaction chain (as the fuel is essentially lighting itself for lack of a better term, we just get it started and it continues the reaction). This is a really interesting subject to think about, as recycling waste products could lead to more efficient returns. However, I feel like it would end up costing more than it's worth. It's easier to just bury the waste and lock it up.

[@TheCarlosR]

@@youssef-td2vb if that is true we will still have less irradiated material and nuclear cores. From the little I know of how long nuclear core used in a reactor can last, what you have said makes sense as long as someone is actually conducting research into making such technology. If the goal is to reduce the amount nuclear core and irradiated material that can harm the planet while getting something out of it, then this is a good step in that direction.

[@TheCarlosR]

@@philipfahy9658 from what I remember from that study, the use of nuclear waste wasn't that heavily looked into certain irritated material, I think they were looking into irritated boron. Maybe it would be cheaper to just to encase the nuclear waste with concrete and other necessary material and bury it until it is no longer irradiated.

[@FSDraconis]

They don't and won't use weapons grade material in reactors. The cost alone to dismantle, and shape it safely into fuel rods for reactors would remove all of the benefits. Then you also run the risk that it would be targeted by a rogue power for theft to turn it back into a weapon.

One of the most interesting atomic bomb engineers of the 1950s and 60s was a guy by the name of Ted Taylor. He is famous for having lit a cigarette with a nuclear bomb and a small parabolic mirror. That kind of thing might be doable, using a mirror to heat a rock then placing the pizza on the rock for a few minutes. But as you mentioned, it isn't likely that directly using the nuclear energy would be that useful. A few other interesting ideas that Ted Taylor worked on was using nuclear bombs to create plutonium for use of nuclear energy, using nukes to make tunnels for high speed railways underground, and even using bombs to launch space ships in to space, known as Project Orion.

Hey Kyle, got another thought on the food train. Would it be possible to go over some common food myths, like frozen vs steamed veggies, white vs brown rice, and other food misconceptions? Love the show as always!! Simp for Science!!!!

[@thedinosaurman8507]

Save it for food theory

[@abonynge]

How is white vs brown rice a myth? White rice has the bran and germ removed, brown is the whole grain. What is the myth? Also steaming is the most efficient way to cook frozen veggies. I'm seriously missing something here.

[@pingu99991]

I hear you... So how many times a second, for how long, and how hard would you need to slap a chicken or pizza to cook it properly without destroying it? Side note, this oscillating action would likely be very quick meaning you couldn't physically move your hand very far before having to move back for the next slap... making it look like a tiny waving action. I hereby name this new method of cooking "microwaving" 😉😅

Put fake hands on the edge of fan blades, turn the fan on low, move chicken toward the now moving fake hands until they slap the chicken several times a second.

Dont forget the opposite reaction, so while you slap that chicken your hand also heating up with every slap. :D

[@pvic6959]

this video made me wonder how _slow_ you can cook a pizza and have it edible. Some important things I think will play a part: when the food stuffs goes bad, can you keep the heat high enough that fungus/bacteria cant grow to make the time go longer, etc

[@romanpackham8471]

so all we have to do is just stuff it into a metal container thick enough to absorb the flash of heat without destryoing the pizza and then deliver it to the pizza over time

[@L0U_ZER]

To put it another way: the finite thermal conductivity of the pizza and the extremely short duration of the high heating will result in a substantial thermal gradient through the pizza, resulting in a charred surface and uncooked center (followed by pulverization from the blast).

[@NukeMarine]

I got a question: could we through a deep subsurface fission trick or a Dyson Swarm death laser shot long term through the poles reliquify the core of Mars in order to restart it's Van Allen belt so any atmosphere we create on it won't get stripped away by the Sun's solar winds?

[@jamesleduke873]

I'm pretty sure if we could make a dyson swarm, we could terraform mars. Not sure remelting Mar's core to restart the magnetic field is the best method

What I am hearing here is that if you had enough nukes and you put your pizza add a radius that the blast would transfer heat similar to an oven and keep exploding nukes for long enough, then you could get that perfect cook, it’s just like a highly impractical oven.

Nuclear blast: too fast. Slapping a chicken a billion/trillion times: too slow.

So this reminds me of a proposal from Project Plowshare. The idea was to dig a big hole in the ground and drop a hydrogen bomb in and detonate it. Then you pump water into the now very hot hole in the ground and collect the steam for power generation. Theoretically it's a fusion powerplant that could be built right now. Our grandparents were crazy huh?
