I have a hard time believing that Jupiter, 360 Million miles away from earth, reflects the sun, and appears bright as it does, when the moon in contrast is 238,000 miles away. It makes sense to me that the moon would reflect some light from the sun, and we could see it here on earth. It does NOT make sense that Jupiter could be as bright as it is at night, and science claims it's from the reflection of sunlight. I do not believe it so easily.

Asking questions if you don't know the answers, or have a hard time understanding is hardly trolling.
I can imagine some countries in the world that are highly religious forbidding knowledge of the universe and such like.
The poster (assuming he genuinely doesn't know) has asked on a board where he probably knows he will get some answers.
Nothing wrong with that.
If you tell me they are reflecting light, then what is it about them, that causes them to light up at night, by reflecting light?

You're probably right, think I am just getting sick of seeing people bash other people here on ATS.
Anyways, I did my bit and answered all his questions to the best of my knowledge (and a little Google search thrown in, lol).
I feel content in helping someone, I just hope he takes your suggestion and furthers that by doing research of his own.

He didn't deny the holocaust in that sentence, he questioned the death toll, as have many others.
To deny the holocaust would be an insult to those who died/suffered as a result of it, but to question if TPTB gave us the real figures, and not a greater figure to make it sound even worse (if that is possible)....well......

Please do the following:
1. Switch of your computer.
2. Find where the nearest library is.
3. Spend a couple of weeks reading and learning about astronomy.
4. Create a new ATS account becasue you sure don't want any link to this nonsense when you have educated yourself on very very basic stuff.

I do believe that you need to look into the car he provided power to with "THE LITTLE BLACK BOX" and then you tell me that he did NOT provide proof of wireless power my friend!
What car? I have seen that picture of Tesla holding a burning light bulb in the middle of a field, but what does wireless energy transfer have to do with "free energy"?

So, you have a problem with people asking the question "why are we here?" , even though it has been answered SO many times already?
Are you aware that some people believe in aliens and their entire culture as reality, and yet, others don't?

Sometimes it can be good for people to NOT know the Earth revolves around the Sun.
It's usually these people who stumble upon whole new ways of looking at the universe. Newton did not know the earth revolved around the sun, until he discovered it, right?
Now, just because he discovered and expressed what we all consider to be fact today, does not mean someone will not come along and prove him completely wrong about the Earth and the Sun, tomorrow, but as long as YOU believe what we are told, YOU will never be that person, will you?

Wireless energy transfer is essentially what we call free energy today. It's not completely free, but it does not require us to produce energy to extract energy back out.

The new Nokia phone, Lumia 920, supports wireless charging (energy transfer). However, you're going to plug that charger to the wall just like you plug a conventional charger to a wall. The exact same thing with Tesla's wireless energy transfer..
– This has nothing to do with what I said nor does it have anything to do with your op. I said people should know, not that they couldn’t live constructive lives without knowing. And in terms of the progression of scientific truth, this knowledge is needed. And if you fail to learn what science is then this conversation is circular and closed.
I beg to differ with this. Many people lived perfectly constructive lives without ever knowing the Earth revolves around the Sun.
– Again, I think it would be good for you to go the library and learn about the history of our solar system models, especially Galileo.
It just may take that one person, who does NOT know the Earth revolves around the Sun, to make that discovery for us all.
– You’re saying a lot of things here, none of which correspond to the op or the forum posted in.
That's all i'm saying here.
– You put facts in quotes which just makes me sigh heavily. I think of the kind poster who took the time out to answers your questions and I sigh again. And how did the bible end up in this conversation? I didn’t put it there.
Too many facts can close a mind, regardless of whether those facts all point to one single truth. If you take every word in the Bible as fact, then maybe there is justification for killing others that do not agree with your religion. Then you become extreme in your understanding and beliefs and justified as well, all because of an abundance of overwhelming "facts".
