I apologize before you read this... but my Aunt Ramona sent me this:) WILL
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington
chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so profound that the
professor shared it with colleagues, via the internet, which is why we now
have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.
Bonus question; Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyles Law (gas
cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
need
to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at
which
they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul
gets
to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for how many souls are entering Hell, lets look at the different
Religions that exist
in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a
member of their
religion, you will go to
Hell.
Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not
belong
to more than one religion, we can project that 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. Now, we look at the rat of change of
the
volume in Hell because Boyles Law states that in order
for
the
temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell
has to expand
proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities.
l. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter,
Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Helll will increase until
all Hell breaks lose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the rate at which souls
enter
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes
over. So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa (cheerleader
captain
and Class Valedictorian ) during my Freshman year, that "kit will be
a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact
that I slept with her last night and again this
morning, then number 2 must be true and thus I am sure that Hell is
exothermic, and has
already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since has frozen over, if follows
that is is not accepting any more
souls and is therefore,extinct...leaving only Heaven. Thereby proving the
existence of a divine
being which explains why Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God!!!!"
This student received the only A.
