    Does God exist?

    Obviously, something can't come into being without a cause implies that if something comes into being, it must have a cause. This is known self-evidently to be true, if you deny this then you require proof Obviously since if all of space and time had a cause, then the cause cannot be...

    /r/philosophy is ok, but it's not great I like /r/askphilosophy though since you can see the authority of the persons posting The thing about Islamic studies in the west is, that in secular institutions you learn about Islam, but in Islamic seminaries, you learn Islam But Charles Sturt has a...

    No I haven't done philosophy in university You can learn quite a bit from just reading though Modern philosophy outside of analytic philosophy is quite terrible as far as I'm concerned though, so I'd suggest reading up on medieval philosophy and especially Ilm al-Kalam, which is a form of...

    UWS ATAR Cutoff

    A friend of mine told me that your ATAR goes away after 2 years and universities use your GPA/WAM instead as an "atar" cutoff I'm specifically talking about UWS Medicine, as a GWS student I only need 93.5, my atar is 98.4 If I continue 2015 at USYD Engineering and do well in UMAT, will UWS...

    HSC 2015 MX2 Marathon ADVANCED (archive)

    Re: HSC 2015 4U Marathon - Advanced Level My solution was: \cos^2 x + \cos^2 (2x) + \cos^2 (3x) = \frac{1}{2} (3 + \cos (2x) + \cos (4x) + \cos (6x)) = \frac{1}{2} (3 + \cos (4x) + 2\cos (2x) \cos (4x)) = 1 Which can be solved easily by re-arranging and taking cos(4x) common

    Re: HSC 2015 4U Marathon - Advanced Level The angle alpha is variable remember! So we need to minimise the angle alpha, so R is only 1 point on the plane (rather than a circle on the plane p), the specific point that lies on the line on the plane p that has the smallest angle between it...

    Misconceptions of numbers in everyday life

    The crime rates of Australia have been decreasing since the introduction of new policing policies, which since the policies have started, the police have gained greater power and abilities. Therefore, the increase in police power has led to the decrease in crime.
