  1. I wish you would because your verbosity doesn't give meaning it obfuscates.
  2. It is if the question's off topic.
  3. How can you have evidence of the unknown/unknowable?
  4. Do you understand the irony, Stevie Wonder, of those that can't see?
  5. Sometimes war is inevitable, I just hope a timely kick in the balls is enough, but Putin seems to be wearing a box.
  6. Good point, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't get the stick out and wave it in the direction of the balls; one year ago that was firing on the airfield that launched that atrocity.
  7. Unfortunately, despots don't respond to the carrot (they don't understand what a carrot even is) the only thing they recognise is who has the biggest, usable, stick. Even a pacifist can understand that sometimes a bully needs a good kick in the balls.
  8. I'm sorry, I was being facetious. IIRC light is a perturbation of spacetime (4D). I'm sure someone will correct me if I remember incorrectly.
  9. You're welcome to your faith (enjoy it), but you can't use science to justify it because it absolutely is disconnected from science.
  10. So that's the point of this thread, you just want a stick of your own.
  11. yep, scientifically speaking, it does; philosophically speaking WTF?
  12. The problem is, there is no left in America (ATM) just right and far right, there used to be (as I'm sure Phi will attest). Free food for the poor puts me in mind of "The grapes of wrath" - John Steinback, especially the part where the capitalists threw away food and guarded it, from the starving. Then it's fear and need (and greed) you have to eliminate because they always precede/create political extremes.
  13. There's a huge difference between not wanting too and not being able too Guess which side love is on? Spoiler alert, I'd love to have a choice.
  14. Clearly, your purpose is to obsess about shit that doesn't really matter, the entropy of which will probably end in the same way your previous identical thread did.
  15. I would imagine with a hint of jealousy (especially during the famines), as for the soldier I can't imagine he'd go on record saying anything derogatory about his country, perhaps his tone wasn't good enough and he was filmed trying to escape to the south.
  16. So the answer to the OP is yes, it is possible.
  17. Agreed, but science makes books and books over time minus understanding equals a bad idea...
  18. Indeed, but it would be based on science. Or at least what we think science is.
  19. You're missing the point, belief is the problem, not the answer. You're obviously correct, as of now, because it's well understood; but surely as a scientist, you can't really entertain that statement as a fact/true. As Swansont said Yet.
  20. Given the number of people he's fired, I think he's confusing real life with reality TV, or maybe he thinks bankrupting a casino wasn't funny enough.
