Intuition

Our intuition fails at extremes. Reality behaves in mind boggling ways that at first seem completely impossible or insane. Christians are obvious to this and foolishly trust their everyday intuition to understand extreme conditions in the universe and convince themselves they understand the workings of the universe far better than scientists.

• Newtonian Mechanics: average conditions
• Special Relativity: very fast moving
• General Relativity: very massive
• Quantum Mechanics: very small
