On The Cosmic Speed Limit (c) And Time DilationSven Gelbhaar2/12/2024 Special Relativity stipulates that there exists a universal speed limitin the Physical World: that of the speed of light (c). I intend onfalsifying that. An easy counterargument to this notion — that nature has a speed limt —would be to shift inertial frames (that is, […]

On God of the GapsSven Gelbhaar2/11/2024 Atheists are generally loathe of the God of the Gaps argument,whereby the only explanation for an event or object is an all-knowing, all-powerful, etc God, for every other possible causehas been discounted.

On The Problem of (Good and) EvilSven Gelbhaar9/5/2023 The skeptics and critics of monotheism always proclaim that aloving God and Goddess would never allow for evil to exist intheir creation.

Anthropogenic Climate ChangeSven Gelbhaar25.07.2019 The debate rages on as to whether the increase in global average temperature isanthropogenic, or even if it exists at all.

On DensitySven Gelbhaar25.07.2019 Upon re-reading my earlier paper /On Black Holes/ (16.10.2018), it occurs to methat there must be a proscribed maximum density when it comes to the compositionof atoms (and therefore superstructures of the same). In the paper I had arguedthat a conglomerate of matter cannot have infinite density, but used a rather(glancing at
