I am a little confused. Throughout scientific history people have debated ideas on a continuous basis in order to propel humanity. Well I have read posts on this website for a few days on the concept of perpetual motion. What disappoints me is that every thread, on this topic, that is made on this sight is cut off almost immediately. "Because the crazies will come out" as I have read? Well my problem with this concept of cutting people off, crazy or not, is that perpetual motion does exist. Electrons are perpetually motivated around protons and nuetrons. All Matter is Perpetually Motivated towards all other matter in the Universe through gravitational force. But yet the Laws of Thermodynamics say that perpetual motion is impossible. Which May be true on a larger scale in a non-frictionless enviroment. But scientific concepts are disproven everyday so why is it the Law of Thermodynamics and why does this website enforce it by preventing people from discussing and sharing ideas that are vital to propelling science forward? Because even if perpetual motion is not real on a larger scale. Someone may develop an idea from discussing it that may lead to a vital breakthrough in science. So what I am really saying is DON'T CUT PEOPLE OFF Because you could be cutting off a vital moment in scientific history; potentially. People thought Einstien and Newton where crazy, DIDN'T THEY?

Welcome to PF!

1. You need to read the definitions of "perpetual motion" and "perpetual motion machine" on wikipedia. You need some clarification on what the issues are about. Basically everything you said is a misunderstanding of the issues/terms.
2. This is a private forum. We can have whatever rules on censorship we want.
3. We tried it your way and it was a disaster.
4. No serious scientist ever though Einstein or Newton was crazy and crackpots never, ever come scientific breakthroughs. Never, ever, ever.
5. That's not philosophy.
6. You need to reread the rules you agreed to when you signed-up.
7. So in short, basically everything in that post was wrong.
