without SATAN there is no GOD!

The following is an actual question given on University of Washington chemistry mid term.

The answer by one student was so 'profound' that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well :


Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today.

Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over...

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,' and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting 'Oh my God.'


THIS STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+.

Hehe, very good GM, I enjoyed that, cheers buddy.

Seems a shame almost that its here in the Mens Room and thus so few of us shall read it, but ya get that sometimes, lol.

Go away Girls, you're not meant to be here.

Oh GM - I was at the local supermarket Deli yesterday waiting to get served and the amongst other things, I got a small pottle of bean salad 'n a bloke standing next to me got the same stuff, only a real big pottle.

I sorta looked at it and blurted out 'I'm glad I aint flatting with you mate, its gunna be bad enough tonight just with me and a small bean salad', pffft.

And of course being blokes, we didn't need to introduce ourselves, offer a compliment on hair styles or shoes or knitted mobile phone covers or whatever:

Nah mate, it was straight into 'Greats Farts I have Heard or Done', right there at the deli counter.

The poor women behind the counter didn't know where to look, but we were tough - it took a good five minutes at least, did that Bean Salad-led conversation and neither of know who the other is - not important, pffft. Crikey, a Large Bean Salad, I felt humbled in his presence. Felt sorry for his wife, but.

Have a great weekend GM, take care buddy.
