Guest Diskyr Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Which Force will turn out victor in this cosmic collision course? The Unstoppable Force: A force that cannot be stopped, is impossible to be stopped, and will never stop unless the force itself wills itself to. The Immovable Object: An object that is impossible to move, even from Jesus, Chuck Norris, Dr. Manhattan, Big G, TOAA, and other like them. Nothing will or has ever moved it. So which force will be victor? Will the Unstoppable force move the Immovable Object, even just 1 inch? Or Will the Immovable object stop the Unstoppable force dead in its tracks? There Can be NO TIES AT ALL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HulkSmash9 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I think that this rally epends on what the two forces qctually consist of, like a good example would be Juggernaut and WWH, WWH was doing well in stopping Juggs but even tually Juggs began to move him.The unstoppable force will always be putting on pressure on the immovable force, which will eventually weaken and it will be moved, eventually even though it could take years or even more, it will still be moved.

Nesh Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Depending on the makeup of said force and object the Immovable object could deflect the Unstoppable force without moving. So I guess in the right conditions the immovable object wins without stopping the Unstoppable force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Culwych Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 LOL, this is actually something I did a paper on when I did philosophy at school years ago! The solution unfortunately is a tie.... but the true answer is that they switch places. The Unstoppable Force will Stop and the Unmovable Object will move. If you play pool/billiards (whatever you call the game) then you will see this often. One ball will hit the other and stop dead in it's tracks whilst the other takes off to whichever hole you hoped it would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Diskyr Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 But how would they switch places? How would the unstoppable force move the immovable object? Remember, there can be no TIE at all. Also, it's impossible for the unstoppable force to stop or the immovable object to move. Not even God or your frail grandma can move or stop these two forces. But there can be no tie too.

Guest boston_celtics Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Their existence is paradox. If there is an unstoppable object, then it is impossible for there to be an immovable one, and vice versa. Everything explodes due to this paradox.

Guest LegendX Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 This really is the most logical conclusion... There's one other solution, I think... The immovible object has to be anchored to something, perhaps the universe itself. When met by the unstoppable force the IO drags it's station (universe, reality, whatever) with it, technically retaining it's point in space without actually stopping the UF. In this case I would give the UF the win since the IO's anchor point failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the objects are respectively immovable and unstoppable, WHY would the former move and the latter stop? Pool is a poor analogy, because balls are not unstoppable or immovable. My point is, if those two objects switch functions, as you say, then they were, in fact, not immovable or unstoppable, making the point moot.

It's just a theory...Unless you go XenoD's way, and say that the fabric of time, space, and reality would explode... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cujogoodie Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Simple. The Unstoppable Force goes through the Immovable Object. The atoms of the Force simply don't touch those of the Object, the Object remains where it was, and the Force moves on unimpeded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dreadlock Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Upon impact there would be an explosion bigger than that of the Big Bang. It would rip a hole in the very space/time continuum whipping out all excistence within an attosecond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ruinus Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Simple. The Unstoppable Force goes through the Immovable Object. The atoms of the Force simply don't touch those of the Object, the Object remains where it was, and the Force moves on unimpeded. AFAIK forces aren't made out of atoms. (Electromagnetic, nuclear, and gravitational) I agree with boston_celtics, the entire match is broken. Diskyr made the match completely meaningless by stating:"Also, it's impossible for the unstoppable force to stop or the immovable object to move." But there can be no tie too." The question is neither a deep philosophical one, nor is it a paradox that requires some genius idea to solve. Diskyr may as well have asked us:"Una qiwma gunkeo?" the effect would have been the same, meaningless words. On the other hand, this debate is an interesting look (at least for me) to religious ideas (both the Unstoppable Force and Unmovable Object have strong religious implications to me) and how people attempt to give meaning to what are essentialy meaningless, contradictory noise. Or Diskyr wanted to know how many people would bother responding to something he (or she?) knew was meangingless, effectively trolling us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest silversurfer092 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 whipping out all excistence within an attosecond. But but but...I don't want to be whipped. Also, there is no such time measurement as an attosecond, nor is there such a thing as an excistence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treacherous Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Couple of points to make:(All feat fails brought to you by the mighty Hulk) Blob is not immovable... Juggernaut is not unstoppable... and this whole match is a paradox well explained by Mr. Celtics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zreth Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 All of these theories assume the objects will make contact with each other but a good example of an immovable object is an object that can not be made contact with so therefore cannot be stopped.
