good
What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it. Contrary to your understanding, all available evidence confirms it. --Subbie If evolution is shown to be false, it will be at the hands of things that are true, not made up. --percy The reason that we have the scientific method is because common sense isn't reliable. -- Taq

Putting a candle in a cowpie still doesn't make it a birthday cake.

DRL writes: OK How does that work, if someone points out opposing views within science or reps of science they are cults? It depends on whether or not they can support their assertions with a preponderance of evidence. Anyone that deals in beliefs rather than actual evidence is a simply stupid.My Website: My Website

You stand corrected.Trudeau calls the unvaccinated racist and misogynistic extremists I know even less about Canadian politics than the American version but I can smell a rat from the correct side of the Atlantic. The shock headline in the Western Standard (just below an advert for Bitcoin investment) was "Trudeau calls the unvaccinated racist and misogynistic extremists" Its second sentence in the actual article inserts the word "often" "Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a Quebec television station people who do not get vaccinated against COVID-19 are often racist and misogynistic extremists." So now it's not all the unvaccinated that are racist, misogynistic and extremists. They then report some of his actual words that are

I have no idea where this misogyny and racism comes from not being party to Canadian politics but I suspect its related to a problem we have here also where the vaccine take up in some minority groups - Asian mainly - is significantly lower than in others. Anyway, are you vaccinated drlove? Edited by Tangle, : No reason given.Je suis Charlie. Je suis Ahmed. Je suis Juif. Je suis Parisien. I am Mancunian. I am Brum. I am London.I am Finland.

Hey smelly, change your tone. Or talk to someone else OK, thank you for definitively admitting to us all what you actually are, an unredeemnable troll. Completely foresaken even by your own sworn God (assuming that your nominal "God" is YWVH, even though your actual God is Satan and you're still screwed only so much far so). BTW, I have far many more people to talk to that you do. People who actually think. And can reason. Things that you cannot even begin to think about let alone dare to aspire to. BTW, we have had many trolls visit us. We know full well how to identify you trolls and how to deal with you.

I agree. Listing something beyond the natural as science is not either.

I Know. It was most people. General hate speech, basically. Whether or not your nose picks that up from whatever place you may be at

Reminding you to have some manners and not name call, by giving you a mild dose of your own medicine is actually wise and sound. I know how to deal with your type.

Says you. However the top science advisor in medical issues is considered to be the voice of science, and speaks as if he were. However worthless that is doesn't matter. You can have faith in either or neither. It is a matter of belief. The evidence says whatever the hired expert wants it to say!

And there is the voice of IGNORANCE, the voice that places SOURCE over content, FANTASY over reality and BELIEF over evidence.

Not sure why you spam a bunch of *******s? Nor do we see what is of worth or not in your strange posts. You are on the cusp of having all posts seen as truly worthless.
In science, they say a theory basically NEVER becomes a fact! When does a theory become a fact and who decides? | New Scientist Edited by drlove, : No reason given.

Correct. Science makes tentative conclusions, but ALL conclusions are subject to change when new evidence or techniques become available. Edited by jar, : add second sentenceMy Website: My Website
