Post Scientists Reproduce Jesus Walking on Water...

Scientists have taken a break from attempting to create life from scratch, and have successfully reproduced walking on water...


Okay. Not really...

A non-Newtonian liquid, in practical terms, is a liquid that turns solid when sufficient stress is applied. Like, say, the impact of feet:

They have the power to make dorks walk on water like Jesus (which is exceptionally cool for about the first 30 seconds of the video, and then sad for the remainder).

What the Hell is it Used For?

Our friends in the military want to use them for body armor. The idea is that the fluids will allow fabrics to be soft and supple, but harden on the impact of a bullet. It would be like wearing a Jell-O sweater that doubles as a bulletproof vest.

I think this is a pretty good advertisement for J.C. He walked on water and 2000 years later someone finally came close to reproducing the event.

They have been reclassifying the "known" physical forms recently. Maybe a few years I guess. According to some there are all sorts of possibilities. Of course we would always look at the military ones first.

Cornstarch and water... that's probably all it is in the other video as well.

Criss Angel can walk on water too, and not cornstarch... maybe Jesus was an illusionist.

Now let them show it being done during a storm - the way Jesus did it.

Jesus could walk on the ocean today...

Although he'd be really walking on the needles and other pollution floating...
