IF this turns into a religious debate, well....it will be locked.

The existence of any GOD can not be proven nor dis-proven. That is a matter of what one believes to be truth. End of story.

I have magic sandwich. You can't disprove it. It is therefore 50/50 whether I have it or not. End of story.

Hey, remember when I said if you don't stop saying things, you'll sound like an idiot? Well, I was right and you didn't take my advise either. So now you look like an ignorant 13 year old who doesn't know jack poop about anything, which is fine because that's probably who you are.

And that's cool I suppose, but I (and probably most people) don't want to listen to your dumbass ramblings about atomic particles, religion, engineering, etc. , which you know nothing about.

Based on some things you have said on this forum, I would not be surprised if you said:
"Xcelerator is actually launched by a big fan."
or
"If they don't build more wood on the TG, the weight of the train with passangers will make it collaspe."

It's just the things you say are frustrating on a halarious level.

The way it "glides" through the air hill segments kind of reminds me of a good B&M hyper coaster. Looks like it will be a lot of fun.
