Graduate Cosmologists: why the acceptance of any weird theory but god?
Because scientist are curious beings which are more concerned with how it is done than they are with who is doing it. The question is can they find a way to do it themselves and control it? -

High School Understanding the Paradox of 0 Divided by 0: Is it 0 or Undefined?
0/0 means that you don't have enough information about the problem. It's like trying to solve a system of 2 equations by using only one of the equations. I will give you an example to understand what I mean. Consider a iron tube with length L, the tube is filled so you can't see through it...- atomthick

Graduate A prime limit that seems to approach a constant
Another proof would be to think of function fk as being the probability to pick a natural number that has a factor among all the prime numbers except the first k prime numbers. f0 = 1, the probability to pick a number that has a factor among all primes is 1 f1 = f0 - f0/p1, the probability to...- atomthick

When run the code below:[code]void F(){
Yes, F will call again F and it will never stop. It will do this forever.- atomthick

Graduate What is the Riemann Hypothesis and why is it so difficult to solve?
It's not solved it just uses the zeros on the critical line. This doesn't prove there aren't any other zeros with the real part < 1/2- atomthick

Graduate What is the Riemann Hypothesis and why is it so difficult to solve?
It would be funny if from all the proved theorems that use RH we can select a group of them and say: "These theorems can't be all true at the same time unless RH is true".- atomthick

Graduate De Broglie–Bohm pilot wave theory
I don't think gravity has something to do with it. For example in your question the ball can't get through the double slit unless you move the wall very close to the ball (because the ball has a very short wave length therefore it's localized in a very short range of space). If gravity was to...- atomthick

Graduate De Broglie–Bohm pilot wave theory
I believe no one can tell you how exactly are the particles moving. There are formulas for the interference of the associated probabilities based on the observed interaction between particles. The asociated probabilities (which happens to have a wave formula) combine each other in such a way...- atomthick

Graduate De Broglie–Bohm pilot wave theory
The explanation is simple. There are no waves there are just particles. Waves are something that was mathematically derived from observation (experiments) like Maxwells equations. In reality the waves are just probability distributions of how particles interact with each other. Waves are not...- atomthick

Graduate De Broglie–Bohm pilot wave theory
I can see you imagine the associated wave spanning at infinity. It's not. A short wave length means the particle (ball) is "highly" localized. If the wave length was bigger let's say 1 meter it meant the particle (ball) could be found anyware on 1 meter radius.- atomthick

Why are you using p=0? You shoud instead use f = E/h, E = mc2, l = 1/f- atomthick

Graduate De Broglie–Bohm pilot wave theory
You are asking a question about QM and yet you formulate the paradox with a ball. The wavelength of the ball is incredibly small this is why you will never see it behave like a wave.- atomthick
