Anyone notice that many people are scientifically illiterate

I am the center. Thank you. I figured out when I was in fifth grade that I am the only consciousness that actually exists and the rest of you are just a projection. But all y'all feel real, and that's what matters.

I think that is solipsism

If the Universe is infinite in extent, then there is then everywhere appears to be the center, though there is no actual center. The same is true in a finite universe, so long as you can't see to near the edge. If there is an edge of the Universe, it is well beyond the horizon of the visible Universe.

But one cannot see or determine the edge of reality, the edge of time and space.

Sounds about right.

Here is the fun part: How do I know you are in fact a real soul, and not just a projection?

only if you so desire too . but at least let me clear the facts . There has been a massive falling away within the entire realm of christendom
and now a false solution has come to merge them and the other religoins to be as one . take note i said FALSE solution.
It seems there be so very few these days who actually took and take the time to learn JESUS CHRIST in the scrips for themselves
or the actual letters written by the apostels FOR themselves . rather they just sit under every tom , dick and harry and mary
who claims to be a teacher and they just keep getting duped . so as far as religoin i just want you to know
I am a biblical bible beleiving Christian who aint in the business of twisting anything but rather just learned for myself .
WISH TO GOD everyone would do the same thing . Anway be encouraged now .

Whatevs- none of that is of the
least concern to me.

 

[Astrid]

Perhaps its just me , but does anyone else here ever get the feeling
they dont really care about you , they dont reallly care about me , or humanity .
Just saying . We are getting decieved my friends .

Don't forget, the easiest one to deceive is yourself

How do you know you are a real soul and not just a projection of a higher being?

The Govt doesn’t care, no. But the Lord cares for His lambs.

 

[Marvelloustime]

It seems to me it dont matter what PILL one swallows these days , whether BLUE or RED . they all going down the same rabbit hole
of confusion . Lol . RED or BLUE . Something is not right my dear friend . It sure seems to me
both sides are buying into something they never should have bought into .

Yeh, the religious tolerance act. Does not protect the lambs.

Praise the Lord. I am also a biblical bible believing fundamental Christian. It’s praise the Lord time.

If this thread was a statistically valid sample size for the general population then indeed most people are scientifically illiterate.

And proud of it.

I ain't losing any sleep over it.

Being scientifically illiterate is acceptable, being proud for willful ignorance is incomprehensible.

That's what would be observed in any explosion by an observer within the explosion.

Or expansion. True. The centre of the observable universe is always at the exact point where the observer is.

Yes, the earth's climate does change. The woke left changed the title from "global warming" to "climate change"...

To stop idiots like Inhofe trying to tell people that cold weather meant global warming wasn't happening.

Sen. Jim Inhofe denies climate change, tosses snow ball in Congress

The Oklahoma Republican, who chairs the Senate Environment and Public Works committee, has long argued climate change is a "hoax"

So the earth is observably geocentric?

Being scientifically illiterate is acceptable, being proud for willful ignorance is incomprehensible.

It's particularly alien to our culture here, where
education is so highly prized and respected.

A possible part of it in America is the appeal of getting
something for nothing. Which is of course very
immature, self indulgent and self defeating.

Whatever the reason, it's a grave cultural
weakness in America. It won't end well.
