But wouldn't that throw everything out of balance? Shouldn't we be seeing some physical effects of the enormous amounts of gravity that would be involved in that. Shouldn't our solar rotation be affected by such a thing?
In short, we're too small to notice.

Don't take this the wrong way, but you clearly have no concept of the scale of the universe and how physics in general works. If there was a giant black hole, let's say 1 trillion solar masses, sitting 150-250 million light years away, our solar system would continue going about its business without nary a care. Only once it got to within a few hundred light years would there start to be destabilizing effects. At 10^12 solar masses, it would need to be within 10^6 AU to exert as much gravity upon the Earth as our sun does. That's roughly 6 light years. Certainly our orbit would become unstable long before that, perhaps at several hundred light years. But I suppose the outer planets would be perturbed once it got within a few thousand light years. Still, a few thousand << 150-250 million.

All of all of your beliefs are fucking stupid, and wrong.

Why do you guys waste time arguing with people that are still reasoning like stone age humans ?

Evolution was also a belief during the stone age. Its actually the second longest held belief system.

Not a troll. Its true. Do some serious research on the subject. Quit relying on textbooks for all your info.

Confirming that many Atheists are fanatics. I got banned from the Atheists forums for saying that you can't discount the existence of a god with science, that the two could potentially be related.

They banned me for "causing trouble" and moved my posts to Christian naughty corner which they call Fantasy Island lol.

I'm an atheist btw. What I was trying to say was with ongoing studies relating to our potentially being in a computerized simulator or multiple universes and our incomplete understanding of the universe, especially quantum mechanics, that you can't 100% say there is no god, though you can show lots of lots of evidence to suggest there is not one.

But even hinting to those Atheists that there could be something like a god got the same reaction that suggesting there was no god to a religious fanatic might get you [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
