Hi G_Einstein (again)!!

If that's the definition of a True Muslim then i'd say that that's nothing but being a "True Human Being"!!
In Other Words... True Muslims, True Jews, True Hindus etc wud all be True Humans!!
<mazhab nahin sikhata, aapas me bair rakhna>
<(religion doesn't teach us to differentiate between humans)>

And ya... Quran may be "Unique-in terms of Scripture" but might be "Different in terms of Inferences"!!

Just think like Rybka!!! tongue

Hi Ricky!

I perfectly agree with Most of ur views!!
The Problem is that a Large Mass will NEVER Agree to ur viewpoints even though u might be able to convince a few of them!!
Hence, u need a totally different approach!
Else, ur efforts are in total vain....

Hi G_Einstein!
I Must APPRECIATE the way the Views of Muslim Society is Changing!!
I mean, its Good to hear that people have started thinking on a rather Scientific Line than on an otherwise Terrific Line!?

"Ye have built heaven with our power, and We Extend it"

I bet that to Most of the Muslims, A Few Centuries Ago, THE ABOVE must have MEANT to just 'Extend the Empire' by 'OverPowering Other Rulers' by means of Wars!
Later, after Defeat from the English, they chose the other way of Indirect War (Terrorism swear: ) for Extending the so called Heaven (Empire)
in short.. they Did All That coz of the Above Quote in Quran (giving names of Jihaad/Kaafir n all)!

However, this NEW INFERENCE of Quran, i believe, will Enlighten People and will Guide Their ENERGIES towards a MORE CONSTRUCTIVE Cause and Seeking/Deviating the Attention of a Large Fraction of Human Population from Developing Al-Quaida/Al-XYZ to Al-Gebra or Other Sciences!

I Believe and Suggest that the Meanings of Great Epics like Bible, Quran, Geeta etc. should Properly (Meaningfully) be conveyed to The Mass!!

God Wanted this Universe to be Predictable so why not Try and Find a Formula that can Predict the Nature of Prime Nos.??
Otherwise a Dark Dead End can easily be Predicted!

#463 Re: Jokes » Chuck Norris vs Black hole » 2010-04-07 22:55:18

Chuck Norris's REAL/ORIGINAL/BIRTH NAME was Suc Norris.
The name was Variable and people used to call him different names at different times in different dimensions.
Norris got this Brilliant Idea of introducing a Constant "k" in his name so that nobody wud Change it and Treat it as a Constant. But that, according to many people, was Not Possible at That Time because "k" was a Mathematical/Physical Constant and cud play No Role whatsoever in English!
He was called S Norris for next 100yrs and remained Anonymous for 1 more day before the Discovery of Consonants as announced by S Norris himself!
Norris restated that he wanted to introduce a Consonant "k" instead of a Constant "k", to his name!
His Rivals proposed to call him Shock Norris but Norris Chuckled and called himself Chuck Norris because he had already foreseen the consequences of the name S--k Norris?
That's why his name is Still MisPronounced by a Majority of people!

#464 Re: Help Me ! » Spheres problem » 2010-04-07 20:17:21

My answer is 3.5r

I guess that the 5 points will form a Pyramid with Square Base and Each Side of length 2r.
Height of the 5th point from the Base =1.5r and thus heigh of Sphere from table = 3.5r

neutral

ZHero,

You haven't really shown that (N+2)^2 = 0, ...

I just did my calculation above and got (N+2)^2=0.
I mean, I don't Want to Show that (N+2)^2=0.
I just want to know what information does (N+2)^2=0 hold??

#468 Re: Puzzles and Games » Puzzle idea » 2010-04-05 06:10:49

Bd1 takes Rh5,
Rh5 takes Nd5,
Nd5 takes Ne3,
Ne3 takes Rc4,
Rc4 takes Ra4,
Ra4 takes Ba2,
Ba2 takes Kf7!

I like your idea mathsy!
Seems like one piece Hits another piece and Pushes it!
