[Hammond] Too bad you're not intelligent enough to understand Factor Analysis, or physicist enough to understand that FACTOR ANALYSIS is the only known scientific method that can actually prove the existence of "Gawd". You have a BS in physics... apparently you have half a brain... half a brain is apparently not enough. Any competent physicist can see that if you take all 4,000 adjectives in the dictionary (in any language) that refer to human personality, and administer them as a self report checklist to 20,000 people, and compute the 4000x4000 correlation matrix, and find that the 13 eigenvectors of that real symmetric matrix form a GEOMETRIC CUBE in eigenvector space .... that that is a SIGNIFICANT and MEANINGFUL hard science discovery. I'm physicist enough to recognize it, and i'm not going to sit here and listen to some candyass no nothing tell me different. Science has KNOWN about this empirical fact for 50 years, and they couldn't figure out WHY a CUBE EXISTED until i came along and told them. THE HUMAN BRAIN IS CUBIC for chrissakes. do you think a bunch of research psychologists are going to figure that out... NO, it takes a PHYSICIST to recognize it.... and I've discovered it and published it in the peer reviewed academic literature (Hamond 1994). NOW, it is only a trivial ONE STEP from there to a scientific proof of the existence of GAWD.... and I'm the one who has discovered it. One of these days you aggravated horses asses are going to wake up and realize you're sitting there ridiculing a serious and competent scientist and acting like a bunch of assholes.... simply because "GAWD" is too much for your middle class American brains to appreciate. ut let me remind you 5-Billion people out there don't think it's a goddamn joke. -- BE SURE TO VISIT MY WEBSITE, BELOW: ----------------------------------------------------------- George Hammond, M.S.
