If water boils at 100 degrees and we are 70% water, why don't we die during a fever?

As others have noted, it's Celsius (100 not Fahrenheit (212).

water will cause third degree burns at the following:

0 sec exposure to 212 F

1 sec exposure to 155 F

5 sec exposure to 140 F

about 104 C for seawater to boil

I have had exactly 0 seconds exposure to 212 F water. Why don't I have third degree burns?

No I mean 100 degrees, not 010. Gotta check your typing dude.

You are retarded.

Didn't they teach you rounding in school? You can't move fast enough to pull your hand through 212 water to prevent burning. The amount of time is not important. Geez!

Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit, well short of your body temperature, even with a fever.

Water boils at 100 Celsius, not not 100 Fahrenheit, which is a common temperature of a fever. Please tell me you are trolling and not a cretin.

Good, now that we got that cleared up can someone please explain to me how the tides and the existance of the moon don't prove there is a God?

Thanks

My dog craps several times every day!

This proves there's a god!

I think its' the pressure of your blood that keeps it from boiling, kinda like a pressure cooker where the water boils at a higher temperature.

That's why we have to have a healthy blood pressure right? Otherwise you might have a heart attack from it trying to pump boiling blood?
