Science

They don't get this. No matter how many times it's explained to them. We come upon a rock in the road. Science says 'I don't know what's under that rock until I can look under it and examine what I find'. Religion says 'God is under the rock. No need to look. You must have faith'. Every time we turn over a new rock, we learn from it. Religion never learns. No matter how many times we don't find God under there, they keep giving the same answer'.

Yes. And that's fine, if you choose to disbelieve science and reality and go with the god(s) under the rock. Most of us have absolutely no problem whatsoever with your choice. What we object to is the insistence that the rest of us don't look under there either, and don't teach our kids to look as well.
 
We've had a few thousand years of human history to evaluate this, and here's the scoop: science is a good thing. Without it, we've had periods like the Dark Ages. Science has saved a whole lotta people, given us an amazing standard of living, and for you space buffs out there, has even put us on the moon.

Real estate dudes don't really know science. They know real estate. Same with most other people who have expertise in a given area, but haven't really studied science, medicine or any other field in depth.

Let's keep going w/ science. It really is the better option.

Science is a deeply corrupt mess, one that the Maoist Mobs desire to finish killing.

Bret Weinstein has been talking about this for years.

BTW: We are already in a Dark Age.
 
Hello Darth,

But the left is bad about putting the word ‘science’ in front of their proclamations as a way to advance them.

The 55 genders thing for one. Masks, more recently. There is no *hard science* behind either one. And if there’s no hard science, it becomes a matter of cherry picking which scientists you want to appeal to.

That’s the misuse of science. Science was never intended to be used as a political tool or a means to bring about social change.

The left has politicized science just like virtually everything else right up to the NFL and NASCAR.

They’re the worlds worst funsucks. They’re worse than the Christian fundamentalists ever thought about being.

First it was the diving boards.

Then it was the deep end.

I don't know how many pools you've been in, but there is a history in the development of pools,

Once upon a time, a decent pool had a deep end and a diving board.

Energetic kids would line up to go off the diving board, doing all kinds of flips and such to impress one another and test their agility.

No doubt there were accidents.

Insurance companies had to pay claims. Rates rose. Then came the lawyers.

That was the beginning of the end of such swimming pool fun.

First the diving boards vanished. Then pools began to be built that didn't even have a deep end. And finally came the 'No Diving' signs.

Really, they took decent swimming pools and turned them into giant wading pools.

The left didn't have anything to do with all that fun going away.

It was capitalism.

The left has done nothing to politicize science, only quoted it to support a common sense point.

It has been the right which has incredibly cherry-picked science to find (or create) science that supports a narrowly held position.

And that can be seen in the numbers.

It's really not right to give equal coverage to opposing points when one point is supported by 95% plus, and the other has less than 5%.

Yes. Intelligent Design is not science. Period, end of story. The attempt to wedge it into public school curriculums has generally failed, but diligence is required.
 
One the whole it is, but science is also wrong a lot. Science has also been used in the name of evil as well. Then there's science as fraud--often deliberate fraud and often for political purposes.

So, when science says something, pull out this because you're going to need it.

Just because a "scientist" says it doesn't necessarily make it true. Question and triple check their answers.

That’s what true science does, moron. It checks itself. Constantly.
 
":SCIENCE" nowdays is a leftist political propaganda arm, where "CONSENSU" is reached by a show of hands, instead of Scientific Method.

Like "TRANSGENDER FEMALES ARE REAL FEMALES"....





BS in Chemistry, U of Missouri at Rolla, now known as the Missouri School of Science and Technology.

How about you?

^This idiot needs to return his degree and ask for a refund.

Afraid kids might begin to ask hard questions about Darwinism lol?

Or heaven forbid, start to doubt it?
 
share with us your scientific credentials

Obviously you have no understanding of what science is about or the scientific method.

Sock puppeteers are often mentally ill or mentally retarded, so don't feel bad. It's not your fault.
 
Once again, and predictably so, the usual forum idiots come forward and demonstrate their massive ignorance on this topic.

Agreed on science and the technological advances it brings us. Why some people in the US have become anti-science is mystifying to me.
 
What are yours, btw? Saw your thread on masks. Do you really think you know more than the entire world healthcare community?

That's Trump-like hubiris.

Teflon Don/I Love America is a hypocrite. He wants the freedom to discuss any topic regardless of his knowledge about the topic, but he believes he's the Internet Police when anyone else posts about a topic he doesn't want to discuss.

Not really. Most "peer" review is cursory and poorly done. Science, like any field, often takes liberties and shortcuts in what it does.

In fact, since computer programs that check for plagiarism, fraud, and other issues in submitted scientific papers have come available, the number of papers retracted has skyrocketed by over ten times what it previously was.

So, if you think that because a paper was peer reviewed and published it's the equivalent of gospel from god, it isn't. It could be nothing but useless crap printed in some useless journal.

People can be wrong or bought. It's why there were ads like that pictured below. The science is never wrong, just wrong people.

HOW IS IT NOT? IT TAKES INOT ACCOUNT GENETIC REALITY, AS OPPOSED TO THE EUPHEMISTIC, FAITH-BASED BULLSHIT OF MACRO-EVOLUTION..WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN OBSERVED< AND IS GENETRICALLY IM{POSSIBLE.

FOR YOUR SAKE: DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE YOU ANSWER, AND AVOID THE BITCH SLAPPING....
