[[Mass]] is a measure of an object's inertia, and is directly related to the force of [[gravity]].  In contrast, the intrinsic [[energy]] of an object (such as an [[atom]]) is a function of electrostatic charge and other non-inertial forces, having nothing to do with gravity.  Declaring the object's energy to be a function of inertia rather than electrostatics is an absurd and impossible attempt to unify the forces of nature, contrary to [[Biblical Scientific Foreknowledge]].

For more than a century, the claim that '''E=mc&sup2;''' has never yielded anything of value.  Often it seems to be used as a redefinition of &quot;[[energy]]&quot; for pseudo-scientific purposes, as by the [[lamestream media]]. There have been attempts to find some justification for the equation in already understood processes involved in [[nuclear power]] generation and [[nuclear weapon]]s, and in the speculation about [[antimatter]].<ref>Tyson, Peter. &quot;The Legacy of E=mc&sup2;.&quot; October 11, 2005. PBS ''NOVA''. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/physics/legacy-of-e-equals-mc2.html</ref> The energy released in matter/antimatter annihilations corresponds to E=mc<sup>2</sup>; for example the annihilation of an electron and a positron (each with rest energy of 0.511 mega electron volts according to E=mc<sup>2</sup>) results in the release f two [[gamma ray]] [[photon]]s, which each have energy 0.511 mega electron volts.<ref>http://www.lbl.gov/abc/Antimatter.html</ref>
