INFINITE MONKEY THEOREM!!!

Post by Born of Fire »

ok now im too stoned to remember its exact name or its exact details right now, but this "Infinite Monkey Theorem" is basically a concept that if you had an infinite amount of monkeys typing on an infinite number of typewriters, one of them is gauranteed to write out the full playscript of Shakespears Hamlet

now I understand perfectly how this works, but are there any other similar sorta amazing theories that any of you know that probably cant be done but the idea is there? other theories such as if you went through a windowpane at the speed of light, you could travel through time are interesting too, tell me what ya got and we'll discuss them 8)
I've gone to find myself, if I should return before I get back, please ask me to wait

Reality's a nice place, but I wouldn't want to live there

If at first you don't succeed, fuck the world and smoke some weed

Lol....

Well I formulated a theorum when I was about 5 years old. It's kinda dumb but I'll share it with you. It's called the...uh..."Save the World from God's Wrath" theorem and it goes to show you how wrong it is to teach religion to 5 year olds:

So there is biblical wisdom about the nature of the day that God ends the world...the bible says that no man can know the exact hour. So my theorum was that if you have a guy, in China somewhere, working a 6-8 hour shift, and his job was to meditate upon the end of the world...."ok, it's coming now. Surely, now is the moment. He's gonna do it now....no, now! The end is nigh.......oh God, here it comes!" etc. So if you employ someone to do this consistently, the end of teh world could never come, according to prophesy.

lol I really have nothing to contribute but I am buzzed and Caro's just made me laugh. it's just the paradox of time. Atoms are atom, put melon in a box and it will evnetually become a TV. Just because time is so infinitly long anything and everything is bound to happen.

The wrath of God will come in the time it takes you worker man takes a breath...

Simple solution

Employ two men, to speak in an overlapping function...

Or does it mean that God does not come at the start of the phrase. Like (he) might not come at the "now" in "he's coming now", but may decide to come at the "he" or "coming" part of the word...

Well i guess i just proved that Caro's theory sucks.. :P

And if i didn't i just proved that i'm too high to be posting here... Aww shit, i got a lecture in 2 hours...
Bop IT!

given enough monkeys it would. if you mash the keyboard randomly you will eventually say a word or something, with the monkeys its on a much larger scale.

Of course it would. It can't not happen. Time is infinite, and thusly anything AND everything WILL happen eventually. Your existance will eventaulyl repeat, one for every decision you made, just different. One where you were born a girl. etc.

There doesnt hav to be alot of monkeys just infanate ammount of time then it will definately happen...eventually.

As for the god thing, the bible says no-one can no the exact hour, and thats true, some dude just sayin acting he knows doesnt count, gods probably smarter than that.
