How do we know that 1 + 1 = 2?
I feel like some of the calculus I'm learning rests on this idea. I can't figure out why it's true though.
1 AnswerMathematics5 years agoCan we remove Mars from the solar system?
It's buggin' me out. What if the martians attack? And before you say that it's not possible, remember that we did the same thing with Pluto. I just don't like the look of the planet. Too red. It's like it's hating me from space.

Wouldn't it help from attacks by aliens outside the solar system, cosmic radiation and stray black holes and whatnot?
5 AnswersAstronomy & Space5 years agoWill you support me in a petition to decrease the length of the day?
My friends and I all complain about how long are days have been a lot of the time. I thought it would be handy if we could get enough supporters to decrease it. I was thinking something like 20 hours, but if you have a different idea on the length of the new day, maybe you could comment what that is and why.

12 AnswersReligion & Spirituality5 years agoPlease help! I Need Saving From Religion or I will go to Hell.?
I need somebody to convince me why religion is wrong. I strongly considered refraining from asking this question because if you learn about my religion and believe in it, you will be damned to Hell forever. However, I figured that the risk that somebody will be convinced is small enough that I can ask this without having the responsibility for damning you to Hell.
You see, if you believe my religion, you believe that there is a God who created the universe so that we could have life, and created a heaven for people to go to when they die to live eternally in happiness to reward them for living a good, moral life. But God doesn't want anyone to believe he exists. This is why he created Hell and damns anyone who believes in Him, or any other God, to an eternity of suffering. He is still the most altruistic being in the universe, and is the definition of Righteousness, but we do not know why He doesn't want anyone to believe in Him. He doesn't want anyone to suffer in Hell, so he sends the holy atheists as our saviors. They are sent to convince us that theism is logically flawed so that we can be saved. As long as we renounce all gods, He will grant us life in Heaven.
I need somebody to convince me why I am wrong so that I do not have to face this damnation.
Thank you in advance and bless all of your souls. Also, I am deeply sorry if by chance you came to believe in God because of me, but you can still be saved by the atheists before you die.
