Hello you ignorant fool: Today is your lucky day!

I don't know why, but I am feeling very generous today so I'm willing to explain any (supposedly) illogical phenomenon in physics, in terms of "classical logic". I'm not bullshitting around. Ask me any physics related question which doesn't make sense to you and it will make senseafter my explanation. I may also refer you to a source, if available.

I will only answer serious questions.

I ain't gonna do a long ass calculation for you.

A better idea would be that the Kerr metric when taken to some spatial minimum would produce point particles, like electrons, as einstien thought might be possible.

Research continues on this issue.

>If you travel at the speed of light from Point 'A' to Point 'B'

You will experince no "progression of time" when you move at the speed of light. It will appear to you as if you just "teleported" from 'A' to 'B'.

To everyone else (not traveling with you), it will appears as that at point 'A' you effectivly "froze up" then at point 'B' you "unfroze".

You are not immortal. Immortal has no meaning here.

Einstein had a bit of a pot :P

I know fat smart people, you fatty fatist.

The only one who knows how fictional characters would respond to certain situations is the writer of the character.

The writers for the fairytale you seek are long dead, so you probably will never know your answer. Maybe you should concern yourself with some more modern fiction, like Harry Potter (tons more exciting then the bible).

Is the universe deterministic?

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that it's impossible to measure the speed and velocity of a particle, because by measuring either quantity we change them.

And any underling notion of hidden variables was disproved by John Bell.

So how can the universe be deterministic?

I just read an insert about Determinism that would mean that we have no free will. I can't find a hole in it's logic. The theory is loosely like this:
If you know the positioning and velocity of a pair of billiard balls you can predict their positioning arbitrarily far into the future. The same might be said to atoms bouncing around in a box of gas. Taking this idea all the way, an "all-seeing-eye" that knows the positioning and velocity of all atoms in the universe at a given moment, the entire future of the universe would be apparent
