  • I like how all these answers involving science fail to realize that the scientific method was used exclusively by many scholars and students who had no historical evidence of giving up their religion.

    Empirical evidence is as old as humans, and afaik the modern scientific method has been in use since the Islamic golden age if not older.

    The key here is that many of these people did not consider religion an empirical issue but a philosophical and ethical one. Particularly with the monotheistic religions, this would make sense because you can easily argue that it would be impractical to test for the existence of God.

    I think a better question would be why do people believe in their respective religion if it contains a glaring contradiction(s).














  • Only if its a hybrid that uses capacitors and a high output engine that only charges the capacitors.

    So you get like 30-60 seconds of continuous insane power that you can put to the wheels, but after that the engine has to recharge the capacitors and provide enough to barely accelerate at the speed of like a a big semi without a hefty engine.

    The trick is since you’re not always doing WOT, you can effectively get ridiculous performance and really good MPG so long as you treat your capacitors like a boost meter that recharges.

    Regular hybrids already do this, but they use normal Li batteries which usually requires that the engine also be able to directly power the wheels which adds complexity and cost.

    It’s kind of like how the ships works in Elite Dangerous lol.
