Cain told her about Onslaught but Onslaught started messing with him mentally which resulted in him running upstairs. He then runs into Onslaught who palmed him with one hand. Juggernaut scared shittless, trying to break free from Onslaught ONE HAND fails which result in Onslaught using the tip of his finger, digging in Juggernauts chest pulling the gem out.I don't know when the gem returned but the gem ALWAYS returns because its a part of Cain Marko. It doesnt matter though because the gem isn't the ft that I am giving Onslaught, its him manhandling Juggernaut and easily piercing his hide with just a press of his finger.
where was it explicitly (issue #) stated that onslaught punched him, not that that is a great feat because any class 100 shuold be able to do it. iirc it was a magnetic toss
i still find it more believable that it was part mind-phuck/psionic display that allowed him to "pierce" his chest and produce something that wasnt there
fyi the gem only returned to earth thru plot device...as nova bumped it out of orbit

Actually energy is physical. This is a fact.[b]Question:
My position is that nothing "nonphysical" (ie, supernatural, immaterial) can exist in our universe. How can I clearly explain to high school students that "waves" (as in a photon can be both a particle and a wave) and "energy" are not "nonphysical" things, but are physical things (that obey the laws of physics, like all other physical things that exist in our world). Thanks for helping.Quote: Replies of the Question
Since I do not agree with the proposition, I do not know of reasons to support it. The meanings of the words "nothing", "nonphysical", "can", "exist", "our", and "universe" are rather ambiguous, and of course change with time. Your statement could be justifiable if and only if we assume that one has a priori and complete knowledge of known, unknowns, knowables, and unknowables of and for all times.
How could we be aware of existence or lack of existence of non-physicals if we, as physical being, are limited to physical probes and means to sense effects and establish existence?
With regards to waves, energy, and the like, these are words used to denote observable physical phenomena or concepts that convey the effects, implications, or consequences of physical phenomena. These are or ought to be observable directly or indirectly (through their effect) by way of physical examination.

You propose that "nothing nonphysical can exist in our universe", like - for instance - supernatural or immaterial. And you wish to explain that "waves" and "energy" are nonphysical things but obey laws of physics like all other physical things, so that they belong to the physical world..
Well, first of all, you know that theories are created aiming to explain a given existing phenomenon. The phenomenon "light" can be explained like particles that travel in linear course, but shows interference properties, which proves that are waves ( only waves behave like this ).
To explain the atom, the scientists developed several models : Thomson, Rutherford, Bohr, Orbital Model (probability of finding electrons) and now the Quarks theory.
Einstein said : E=mc2 so that matter is a "concentrated form of energy". The gravity can attract light and make it bend. Is gravity a physical or non-physical phenomenon ?? Gravity exists, for sure !! But nobody knows exactly what gravity is. Do we live in a universe where the gravity is "positive" and is there another part of the universe where the gravity is "negative" ?? Is there gravity waves ??
