[quote:Base12:MV8zODYyMzY4XzY5NjcwNjQwXzFGMTQyOEJD] The Columns are interesting. I'm assuming they mean Pillars... [i][color=blue]Job 9:6 "Which shaketh the [u][b]earth[/b][/u] out of her place, and the [u][b]pillars[/b][/u] thereof tremble"[/color][/i] What are the Pillars of the Earth? Oh noes... is the Earth flat? Of course not. A Pillar is a Pole. Earth has two of them... [b]North Pole South Pole[/b] Pillars of the Earth are also people... [i][color=blue]1 Samuel 2:8 "He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the [u][b]pillars of the earth[/b][/u] are the LORD’S, and he hath set the world upon them"[/color][/i] [/quote]
Original Message
"It from bit symbolises the idea that every item of the physical world has at bottom — at a very deep bottom, in most instances — an immaterial source and explanation; that what we call reality arises in the last analysis from the posing of yes-no questions and the registering of equipment-evoked responses; in short, that all things physical are information-theoretic in origin and this is a participatory universe."
John Archibald Wheeler - July 9, 1911 – April 13, 2008.
