iNow  "Since the dawn of rational thought, the advancement of science has been retarded by the minions of mysticism, and profound revelations have often been opposed or suppressed by the greater part of the dominant religion, because dogmatic faith is not based on reason and zealots will not be reasoned with."

Let me ask you... Was their mysticism rooted in reality? No. Just because Newton was an alchemist doesn't mean his belief led to advancement in the science of chemical reaction. Also, sure... we can find singular examples, but anecdotes don't negate the median trend. Those were quotes from Richard Feynman. Not me. Take your challenge to him. ;)

Opening quote of this conversation from AronRa. All subsequent quotes I've shared are from Feynman.

iNow  The politics section here has become a ridiculous waste of bandwidth. Logic and accuracy don't seem to matter among the most active

Sure isn't any worse then the philosophy forum, and the opinion that philosophy is crap and anything said about morals belongs in the religion forum.

    Yup, I could do that, it would be a pain but nothing more than logistical problems, growing coral on the outside of a shot glass would be much easier

    It actually is a trick question. You can't have an eclipse during a full moon.

    iNow, Sorry. I was very surprised to see the thread closed as I visited tonight. I feel responsible, but don't know how to reverse the closure. Seems the captain does not quite understand what you were saying. And if it makes any difference to you, I think you did a good job keeping the emotions and the God arguments out of the inquiry. And I appreciated and learned from every post and link. Nice job. I sincerely apologize for my contribution to the closure. Regards, TAR
