Philosophy Now Forum

John Lachs thinks it can get back on track.

Philosophy in most areas are severly outdated and was a predecessor to science. As of now it is mostly used as a mental mastubation tool for people who lacks rationallity.

The strength of philosohy is that you can make up crazy ideas, where in science fora one has to make plausible theories, else one gets excessivly flamed and trolled if it doesn't allign with any known facts.
Once I had to save a dude asking if black holes had a purpose, he got trolled and flamed for 15 posts, till I stepped in and theorized that they cleaned the galaxy for dust and gas, and redistributed matter.

Have you actually read any philosophy? Studied it? Met any philosophers? Or are you comments based upon your interaction with forums upon the interweeb? As your descriptions ring false to me.

Re: Black Hole
How can a black hole redistribute matter? As by definition nothing is coming out.

Instead, Hawking proposes that black holes possess "apparent horizons" that only temporarily entrap matter and energy that can eventually reemerge as radiation. This outgoing radiation possesses all the original information about what fell into the black hole, although in radically different form. Since the outgoing information is scrambled, Hawking writes, there's no practical way to reconstruct anything that fell in based on what comes out. The scrambling occurs because the apparent horizon is chaotic in nature, kind of like weather on Earth.

Then it won't be matter?

It's not necessarily the part about sucking everything into the bh and out again, but also the gravity pull of matter that can rearange everything around it, which is how you discover a bh, spcecially when stars makes an oddly sharp turn around an seemingly empty area.
