Thermal conductivity | Another example of silver's thermal conductivity is to put different materials on ice cubes. An iron washer will just sit on the ice and slowly become colder.

Again, this is because the silver is really good at drawing heat from the air and giving it to the ice cube. Copper is also good at this, but not as much as silver. | 20231101.simple_168367_5 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal%20conductivity |

Argument from inconsistent revelations | The Argument from inconsistent revelations (also known as Avoiding the wrong hell problem) is an argument that says that God probably does not exist.

Unless the revelation is personal, the follower must to some extent rely on the judgment or the stories of others. Assuming the revelation is personal, the follower is still ignoring the revelations of those before him. | 20231101.simple_200700_0 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument%20from%20inconsistent%20revelations |
