Hi posters !
Many a time, I use this expression : "paradigm shift".
I would like to show you a simple example of what it is.

I think that like everybody, you have been told that the circumference of a circle is 2xPIxR. That is, the diameter of the circle multiplied by 3.14159....

Well follow me on this image :



On Fig#1, you see a circle, and a square in it.
Obviously, the circumference of the circle is longer than the perimeter of the square !

So, like in Fig#2, let us divide each side of the square so the figure ACB fits more to the circle than the side AB.
Obviously, the length of ACB is longer than the length of AB : are we approaching the length of the circumference ?

You see in Fig3 that we continue this process : ADC is longer than AC.

So, each time we divide a segment, the resulting length is longer than the original length.

If we repeat that many many times, the resulting length will be ever longer than the original length.

That means that the circumference of the circle is INFINITE !

This is one of the examples given by MANDELBROT, a mathematician, who invented and promoted the FRACTALS.

He gave as an other example this question : what is the length of the coasts of Britany ?
As you guess it, the answer is : INFINiTE.

You may figure the logic of such an answer if you search the surface of a sponge, or a very porous stone.
Same answer : INFINITE !

Paradigm shift is like the shock you're feeling there.

Considering the certain things under an other angle.

Example of "certainty" : "one may never travel between galaxies, because C (the speed of light) is the limit speed of everything"

But here, explaining the paradigm shift is less trivial ...

However, when you think about it, there is no such thing as a continuos circle.

Zoom in close enough to the circle you drew, you will eventally see individual pixels. Zoom in close enough to the finest circle you can think off and you will eventually see atoms. When that happens, the smallest segment you will be able to add will merely be the distance between atoms.

Think of an imaginary continuos circle, and then you have an infinite circunference, but then again the infinite length would be true for any shape, even a straight line. If you were able to zoom in on that line and never find any discontinuity, then you could claim the line is infinite since its apparent length would be dependent on how far you zoom in and you could hypothetically zoom forever.

Well mathematical goemetry aside. Just spotting and identifying an anomally... I have been aligned with another site which some may know.(THE PARADIGM SHIFT) for over a year now because of their crusade against the NWO /Illuminati . but it appears now they have flipped and gone all christian fundamental . Now I do understand this to be a true P/shift within a P/shift But any views that are at odds with their doctrine now are being deleted /blocked and ignored. People leaving and being aghast in droves. Does anyone have any ideas what transpires with this once admirable group..???
ps.. this is reply 1 of day 1 on here, so .... quell the itchy triggers chaps.
