My sadness is localised entirely in this thread, at this time of year... Because there is no new railgun news to report since February. The cause of spiritual railguns is delayed yet further

[hector13]

My only news is being reminded of how ridiculous the human element in religion is, though that is independent of religious holidays.

And the magnetic element that propels the rail.

It’s designed and built by humans and humans don’t know how to do it!

[Loud Whispers]

How old were you when you realised magnetic propulsion of projectiles was a myth?

[Egan_BW]

Coilguns are rad. We just need better power sources, that's all.

And cooling, because resistance to Magnetic Jesus's energizing touch is just so great, it heats everything up instantly.

[HmH]

If anyone asks you why you believe Magnetic Jesus exists, you can always point to a pair of magnets and say "if he doesn't, how do you explain this?"

The wonderful thing about magnets is that if you actually know physics well enough to describe their basic operating principles, your attempts to explain them to ordinary people will sound even more far-fetched than "motherf'n magic".

All bless the holy polarity that protects us from the irradiation of our burning hydrogen

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Does this make the creation of a monopole the Magnet Christian apocalypse? I mean, a monopole would be an apocalyptic scenario most of the time anyway.

[Loud Whispers]

I maintain nonetheless that yin-yang dualism can be overcome.

With sufficient enlightenment we can give substance to any
distinction: mind without body, north without south, pleasure
without pain. Remember, enlightenment is a function of willpower,
not of physical strength.

Meanwhile I'm using the magnets to make my formers go on monopole drift racing loops

[TD1]

The monopole is a microcosm of the divine. It would not be an apocalyptic scenario but the creation of new divinity. A trinity, if you will. Two poles joined together and exerting influence through a force independent yet part of both. God, Son and Ghost.

These are the dreams flitted Gottschalk, Quatrodecimans never told, Arius dropped his scripture, paralysed - with gold.

The north, the south and the holy monopole

You forgot the Spice Girls too; modern prophets they are.

Remember, the railgun and spirituality thread could not exist without Magnetic Jesus's power to induce the holy current to flow, as told in the writings of St Faraday.
