Relax kids its just a joke.
Catholics ARE Christians. Catholics are the original Christians and the largest single religion that believes in Jesus Christ as Lord. Catholics number a billion and a half and have no problem with hunting for sport or food. Cruelly hurting animals unnecessarily or wasting the resource is against Catholic teaching.
For some weird reason, this subject keeps getting kicked around on Y!A. What most people might not realize is that when one is in a vehicle moving relative to a fixed world, and one attempts to measure its own velocity relative to that world, there are TWO different possible interpretations! One way it is done (the relativistic way) is to mark the ground at the front of the car, and then note how long it takes to reach the back of the car, as measured by a clock in the car. Then the observed velocity is the length of the car divided by that time interval. The other way (quasi-newtonian) is to rely on markings on the ground to tell us the distance, so that we use the distance on the ground as seen between the front and back of the car, and divide that by the same time interval. We get a very different result. With the first method, speed never exceeds c. With the 2nd, speed can indeed go up to infinity, like how it is in Newtonian physics. But in this case, we can assume that the driver of the car is ignoring distances on the ground, and is only paying attention to the revolutions of the wheel, which look quite normal to him, and is making full contact (without slipping) on the ground at all times, and so he'll end up with the relativistic figure of 0.8c. If he uses distances on the ground instead, he'll get 1.67c. I looked at the other question about speed on top of the wheel, and it's fraught with ambiguities about whose clock and whose ruier is going to be used to determine that speed. For example, if the driver uses his own clock, but uses the known perimeter of the wheel, he's going to get a different answer than if he actually tracked a mark on the tire and measured how long it would take to move a certain (very small) distance at the apex.
