    No, it’s not “god of the gaps” to deny elementary school education.

    This post is specifically selecting for the complete morons who won’t even listen to a basic explanation of refraction…

    If you say, “well a lot of religious people will say that!” then yes. Yes, religious people are morons.



  • The last time? aaaahahahaa… no. There are several phenomenon that require energy levels that only stellar objects can throw off. They’ll be asking for bigger colliders even when they’re dedicated space stations firing what would be equivalent to weapons of mass destruction at each other.

    Unless scientists can figure everything out just by observing space, there will always be a demand for a bigger collider. Since scientists like to control variables and don’t like waiting for random events that they then almost have to reverse-engineer to explain (without most all of the sensitive detectors built in to these colliders), there will always be a demand.

    Evolution works like a tree’s structure branches over time. That’s why it’s always animated like that. It is NOT that everything gets expressed and then gets tested. It is that the current thing “alive” is changing. It seems crazy now only because you’re seeing the veeeeerry complicated leaves at the ends of very complicated branches. Branches that have mostly ended by now.

    You know what happens to animals with unsurvivable mutations? They die. All the time. Even humans with unsurvivable mutations happen ALL THE TIME.

    That’s why it’s ridiculous to outlaw abortion: Bad things randomly happen all the time, because it’s a complicated process with LOTS of areas that can go wrong. It goes wrong all the time. The body has mechanisms to fix a lot of “wrongness”, but macro-level bad stuff still happens all the time.

    The same thing happens on a species level over many survivable generations.

    It IS basically “trial and error”, but trial and error in a VERY complicated and dynamic system after a very, very long time, currently stemming from the complicated results of that system.

    You cannot dismiss the system just because one aspect confuses you when removed from context…







  • Putin and his regime. I’m not an angry 12 year old that fails to understand a populace doesn’t support every action the powerful do. May as well blame random US citizens for the ills of Hollywood if you believe in collective punishment like Israel does…

    Putin MADE DEALS to leave Ukraine alone. Ukraine gave up nukes under the premise that Russia wouldn’t invade. The Russian government as led by Putin literally cannot be trusted, and the fact I get downvoted for stating the obvious is beyond sad.

    This world is doomed because obstensibly “good” people completely and utterly fail to realize just how shitty the shitty people are, and it’s fucking pathetic.
