The wonders of God’s creation are unveiled little by little. Some whys and wherefores and still the mystery continues.

The title is misleading. It suggests a violation of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.

Just think the smaller things get the more complex they get. Evolution is such BS!

I was watching the History channel last week and there was a great quote from one of the three men who decoded the Human Genome. He said there has to be a God, because you’d have a better chance of running a hurricane through a junk yard and having a functional 747 as a result, than us being created by accident.

Heisenberg and Pauli are spinning in their graves. Nothing can be seen in "real time" unless you go back in time.

"The United States then launched an "Atoms for Peace" program that supplied equipment and information to schools, hospitals, and research institutions within the U.S. and throughout the world. The first nuclear reactors in Iran and Pakistan were built under the program by American Machine and Foundry."
