If the moral code were flouted, the proper balance of the universe would be upset, and the disastrous result could be floods, plague, or famine.

If this is true, then the universe today looks just as it did millions of years ago and as it will look millions of years hence, even though the universe is expanding.

If the universe is flat, there must be an additional component making up 73 % ( in addition to the 23 % dark matter and 4 % baryons ) of the energy density of the universe.

* If one refuses to sit down and make a move, one cannot be checkmated ( in relation to Russell's belief about the existence of the universe ).

If an elementary particle truly has no substructure, then it is one of the basic building blocks of the universe from which all other particles are made.

If confirmed, this would imply special relativity is an approximation to a more general theory, but since the relevant comparison would ( by definition ) be outside the observable universe, it is difficult to imagine ( much less construct ) experiments to test this hypothesis.

If this sounds indulgent, it allows simultaneity, absolute space and time and a deterministic universe ( along with decoherence theory ) whilst the status-quo permits time travel / causality paradoxes, subjectivity in the measurement process and multiple universes.

If the entire volume of the observable universe ( taken to be 3 × 10 < sup > 80 </ sup > m < sup > 3 </ sup >) were packed solid with fine dust particles about 1. 5 micrometres in size, then the number of different ways of ordering these particles ( that is, assigning the number 1 to one particle, then the number 2 to another particle, and so on until all particles are numbered ) would be approximately one googolplex.

If the universe is static and populated by an infinite number of stars, any sight line from Earth must end at the ( very bright ) surface of a star, so the night sky should be completely bright.

If the universe is homogeneous at a large scale, then there would be four times as many stars in a second shell between 2, 000, 000, 000 to 2, 000, 000, 001 light years away.

If, on the other hand, the conception taken as the foundation of the system is that the great inclusive unity is the world itself, or the universe, God is swallowed up in that unity, which may be designated nature.

If one adds two whole parts the result is one whole and if one whole is subtracted from another whole the result is another whole-it means there is one whole universe and it is all prevaded by " Him ". Since the universe has come forth from the Divine, all things and beings are sacred and must be treated so in human thought and action.

If God in some sense knows ahead of time what will happen, then events in the universe are effectively predetermined from God's point of view.

If the energy density is positive, the associated negative pressure will drive an accelerated expansion of the universe, as observed.

If the universe is described by an effective local quantum field theory down to the Planck scale, then we would expect a cosmological constant of the order of.

If this type of energy were to exist, it would cause a big rip in the universe due to the growing energy density of dark energy which would cause the expansion of the universe to increase at a faster-than-exponential rate.

If there are as many monkeys as there are particles in the observable universe ( 10 < sup > 80 </ sup >), and each types 1, 000 keystrokes per second for 100 times the life of the universe ( 10 < sup > 20 </ sup > seconds ), the probability of the monkeys replicating even a short book is nearly zero.

If one assumes that all of the universe consists of protons and neutrons, the density of the universe is such that much of the currently observed deuterium would have been burned into helium-4.

If α were > 0. 1, stellar fusion would be impossible and no place in the universe would be warm enough for life as we know it.

If the circumstances are faced frankly it is not reasonable to expect this to be true.

If his dancers are sometimes made to look as if they might be creatures from Mars, this is consistent with his intention of placing them in the orbit of another world, a world in which they are freed of their pedestrian identities.

If a work is divided into several large segments, a last-minute drawing of random numbers may determine the order of the segments for any particular performance.

If they avoid the use of the pungent, outlawed four-letter word it is because it is taboo ; ;

If Wilhelm Reich is the Moses who has led them out of the Egypt of sexual slavery, Dylan Thomas is the poet who offers them the Dionysian dialectic of justification for their indulgence in liquor, marijuana, sex, and jazz.

If he is the child of nothingness, if he is the predestined victim of an age of atomic wars, then he will consult only his own organic needs and go beyond good and evil.

If it is an honest feeling, then why should she not yield to it??

If he thus achieves a lyrical, dreamlike, drugged intensity, he pays the price for his indulgence by producing work -- Allen Ginsberg's `` Howl '' is a striking example of this tendency -- that is disoriented, Dionysian but without depth and without Apollonian control.

If love reflects the nature of man, as Ortega Y Gasset believes, if the person in love betrays decisively what he is by his behavior in love, then the writers of the beat generation are creating a new literary genre.

If he is good, he may not be legal ; ;

If the man on the sidewalk is surprised at this question, it has served as an exclamation.

If the existent form is to be retained new factors that reinforce it must be introduced into the situation.

If we remove ourselves for a moment from our time and our infatuation with mental disease, isn't there something absurd about a hero in a novel who is defeated by his infantile neurosis??

If many of the characters in contemporary novels appear to be the bloodless relations of characters in a case history it is because the novelist is often forgetful today that those things that we call character manifest themselves in surface behavior, that the ego is still the executive agency of personality, and that all we know of personality must be discerned through the ego.

If he is a traditionalist, he is an eclectic traditionalist.

If our sincerity is granted, and it is granted, the discrepancy can only be explained by the fact that we have come to believe hearsay and legend about ourselves in preference to an understanding gained by earnest self-examination.

If to be innocent is to be helpless, then I had been -- as are we all -- helpless at the start.

If in a town of 2,000 private homes, half of them have shelters, the need for the community shelters will be reduced to that extent.

If the target can change its position significantly during the 30 minutes the missile is in the air on its way, the probability of the missile destroying the target is drastically reduced.

If the remaining array to be searched is reduced to zero, then the key cannot be found in the array and a special " Not found " indication is returned.

Formulae connecting a tangential angle, the angle anchored at the ellipse's center ( called also the polar angle from the ellipse center ), and the parametric angle t < ref > If the ellipse is illustrated as a meridional one for the earth, the tangential angle is equal to geodetic latitude, the angle is the geocentric latitude, and parametric angle t is a parametric ( or reduced ) latitude of auxiliary circle </ ref > are:

If results were left unadjusted for factors such as race, gender, and free or reduced price lunch program eligibility, private schools performed significantly better than public schools.

If a map contains a reducible configuration, then the map can be reduced to a smaller map.

If these structures can be reduced in size, airframe weight is reduced.

If the individual believes that there were just reasons for the harm inflicted, collective guilt is likely to be reduced.

If so, that intensifies the hyperinflation, since it means that the amount of goods in " too much money chasing too few goods " formulation is also reduced.

If a more sophisticated data structure ( e. g., heap or binary tree ) is used, the time required for searching and insertion can be reduced significantly ; this is the essence of heap sort and binary tree sort.

If the input has no syntax errors, the parser continues with these steps until all of the input has been consumed and all of the parse trees have been reduced to a single tree representing an entire legal input.

If the gas pressure is reduced, the cooling effect will decrease, hence the equilibrium temperature of the wire will increase.

If the August 14th, 2008 EDN article was accurate about MIPS having over 500 employees at the time, then MIPS reduced their total workforce by 70 % between 2008 and 2010.

If a drug is cleared too quickly from the body, this could force a patient to use high doses, but with drug delivery systems clearance can be reduced by altering the pharmacokinetics of the drug.

If other patches are in the way, the view factor will be reduced or zero, depending

If sufficiently desperate as the siege progressed, defenders and civilians might have been reduced to eating anything vaguely edible-horses, family pets, the leather from shoes, and even each other.

If this voltage is significant it can be reduced ( also reducing the inherent accuracy and precision of the measurement ) by using a higher current range.

If the annular muscles are contracted, the body cross-section is reduced, and the corresponding segment stretches, since its volume must remain constant due to the incompressible behaviour of the coelom's liquid contents ; this is the usual mode of operation of the hydrostatic skeleton as also employed by other worms.

If the pension plan allows for early retirement, payments are often reduced to recognize that the retirees will receive the payouts for longer periods of time.

If the aquifer is confined by low-permeability layers, the reduced water pressure in the sand and gravel causes slow drainage of water from the adjoining confining layers.

If the accuracy ratio is less than 4: 1, then the calibration tolerance can be reduced to compensate.

If the gage is used in an application requiring 16 % accuracy, having the gage accuracy reduced to 4 % will not affect the accuracy of the final measurements.

If only a certain portion of the electrical power received from the transmitter is actually radiated by the antenna ( its efficiency ) the directive gain compares the power radiated in a given direction to that reduced power, ignoring the inefficiency.
