November 29, 200421 yr Just happened in #poe<DeVZ|Rant> "Is hell endothermic or exothermic"<lib1790> First, we postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. <lib1790>As for souls entering hell, lets look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell. Since, there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially. <lib1790> Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant. <lib1790>So, if hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose (i.e.,Hell is exothermic). <liv1790>Of course, if hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, than the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over (i.e.,Hell is endothermic). <lib1790>So which is it? If we accept the postulate given by Ms.Therese Banyan during my freshman year, "That it will be a cold night in hell before I go out with you," and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having a relationship with her, the second case cannot be true. Therefore, hell is exothermic.
November 29, 200421 yr i had that sent to me as an email last week, it was supposedly an extra credit essay answer on a college exam.
November 30, 200421 yr That damn thing is like 20 years old! I remember reading it in my email about 9 years ago
November 30, 200421 yr That damn thing is like 20 years old! I remember reading it in my email about 9 years ago Teladro! You h4x0rs! How ya been man?
November 30, 200421 yr The night I, gravis, sgoss, jeffy, FP and marx killed CAL-FA was better. And I liked CAL-FA... :mrgreen:
November 30, 200421 yr So did a lot of people, that's why it was so funny when we killed it then having 200 people coming down on us for it.
November 30, 200421 yr This logic has one FATAL flaw.If all souls are comming to hell from the start of the world, then right now the number of souls entering the hell per unit of time is MUCH lower than the number of souls already there. Terefore new arrivals dont disupt the state of the hell too much. The hell has much time to adjust the thermodynamic parameters (the adjustement time is slower than arrival interval), so the hell stays in relativewly stable state. Forever.
November 30, 200421 yr roflthat was ripped off a science paper some guy ACTULLY did.very cool idea though
