Attention College Students

[Hook Dem]

The following is supposedly an actual question given
on a 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 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 is
changing in time. So we
need
to know the rate at which souls are moving into
and the rate at
which
they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume
that once a soul
gets
to
, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are
leaving.
As for how many souls are entering , let's look
at the different
Religions what exist in the world today. Most of
these religions state
that
if you are not a member of their religion, you will
go to . 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 .
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect
the number of
souls
in
to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the
rate of change of
the
volume in because Boyle's Law states that in
order for the
temperature
and pressure in to stay the same, the volume of
has to
expand
proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:
1. If is expanding at a slower rate than the
rate at which souls
enter
, then the temperature and pressure in will
increase until
all

breaks loose.
2. If is expanding at a rate faster than the
increase of souls in
,
then the temperature and pressure will drop until
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 before I sleep
with you", and
take
into
account the fact that I slept with her last night,
then number 2 must
be
true, and thus I am sure that is exothermic and
has already
frozen
over.
The corollary of this theory is that since 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."
