    Is Science what people think it is? - Do you really believe this?

    I agree with you. I am very careful to make the distinction between science, institution, and academia. Science in its purest form is great. Academia (politics/dogma) not so much. The silent lie is that not everyone can be a quantum physicist, for example. This is untrue; we have all been...

    Is Science what people think it is? - Do you really believe this?

    See, the problem is that very few people understand this about science, and treat it categorically opposite of what you suggest. That is the problem some academics, educators, and now laypersons are having with the scientific community. It is a dogmatic institution that DOES treat itself as an...

    UnBlemished - The Days of Noah

    Oh, I agree and thoroughly founded in it. Though, "us" is a minority of these forums. That bugs me, because think of the time and lives wasted while people just doubted what was in front of their faces. When He says there is a veil that must be lifted, He isn't joking I see. When He says...

    White Evangelicals voted overwhelmingly for Trump

    And then his appointees... My goodness. Trump doesn't even need to do anything. (I think I, you and other said this would happen.)

    Who is to blame for post-election racial tension?

    Nope. I need to see what happened before, before I make my conclusion. It could have been an Indian being ironic, drawing a symbol for peace. Why do we take a PICTURE for what it is, but video evidence always seems to demand more evidence? (BTW the post was sarcasm...)

    Is science really what people think it is? - How science guards its pearly gates.

    I'm pretty confident in what he is saying. It has also been my experience, and the experience of people I have worked with. The last thread, and this one are important insights into academia. You don't have to believe it. But, it is true that what has become "science" has become a dogmatic...

    Who is to blame for post-election racial tension?

    We don't know what happened BEFORE the picture was taken, and what led up to that. We need the full details before and after in order to determine the truth behind the alleged swastika. [/sarcasm]

    I had to click the picture to make sure it wasn't an ad...

    Who is to blame for post-election racial tension?

    No... The 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s alone had enough racism and civil rights violations in public view for there to be no excuses. It has only been a decade since smartphones and instant global uploading began, so of course it SEEMS like this began with the advent of Obama because he has been a...

    Who is to blame for post-election racial tension?

    If people understand partisanship is only for the LAYPERSON, not the politician, the information can begin. There is no difference between political democrats and republicans. The argument of their fluid transformations over the years shows there is no foundation. Who are the people...

    CHECK THIS OUT: 666 IS REAL & PASTORS ARE PROMOTING IT!!! (Part 1)

    I think this is a red herring. This entity called "Antichrist," housing the beast spirit, will be so convincing that even the elect would be deceived if possible. We don't know who the beast is yet. So, we don't really know what its mark is. However, we do know that you are marked for God by...

    Is Science what people think it is? - Do you really believe this?

    When I took my seminars, my class was also relieved of confusion on how academia operates. It showed us the true grit of international adacemia ethics - everything from blasklistings for going against the Status Quo, to post-doctorate professors stealing their graduate students' research. When...

    Is Science what people think it is? - Do you really believe this?

    I went to an American university; our mandatory "ethics" seminars were only on the graduate level. Students weren't required to take a philosophy or ethics of science class as undergraduates.

    Who is to blame for post-election racial tension?

    Right. But, I wouldn't be too quick to call the protests mobs. Even so, we can't be ignorant of the fact that agent provocateurs often cause otherwise peaceful protests to grow violent. It isn't a reflection on the merit or purpose of a protest, but often ignored provocation from hired help...

    Christianity: How many Gods?

    No. Even "aliens" are created. God''s name literally means He exists BECAUSE He exists - Descarte was making a nod to godhood in humanity when he said "cogito ergo sum."

    Christianity: How many Gods?

    The gods of egypt were real enough to where God specifically sent 10 plagues that were specific to the powers of ten of the most powerful gods of Egypt. The Exodus showed "magic" of the God of the Hebrews was better than the gods of Egypt - even Pharaoh. Yet and still, He charged the Hebrews...

    Christianity: How many Gods?

    Because as The Most High, anything else is categorically not the highest.

    Who is to blame for post-election racial tension?

    I said this when OWS happened, only to be ridiculed, and warned off of the thread. This is why I said I don't care about the States enough to hate it. If this was 10 years ago and I was still an idealistic university student, I would have been very active in change (I was then.) But, not...
