No Such Thing as Cold
Timothy Birdnow
A recent Popular Science article asked Whi is space so cold if the Sun is so hot?
Why is space so cold when the Sun is so hot?
I posted this simple explanation:
"Cold" does not exist. It is a function of lack of energy - and what we think of as cold on Earth is a function of air and water and whatnot, matter at lower energy states, absorbing heat from us. But in the end it is a dearth of energy. In the shadows in a vacuum it is cold because there is no, or little, energy transfering. It's a world of difference in sunlight. That's why the Moon fluctuates between two hundred fifty degrees F. below at night and two hundred above during the day; the ground radiates heat away during the night and absorbes it during the day.

In like manner, there's no such thing as "dark;" it's merely the absence of light.
And there's no such thing as evil; rather, it is the absence of good. And Satan is not the antithesis of God, but the antithesis of Michael the Archangel.
