Jim, I have every respect for you- don't get me wrong. I am very very open-minded- often to a fault, but i also need truth (my family believe the autism and need for accuracy in our children comes from me). So, when I see your views, particularly about transgender which as you say, is irrelevant here- it also makes me doubt your other posts.
And although I don't often post on them, I often read science posts, purely because I like to learn new things x
Absolutely agree with your last post on science x
Naturally posts need judging on their merits. One needles you in science in order to learn something. One needles you re Brexit because you need to change your opinion. Good fun either way.
It is, og ... although sometimes I also just like to learn new things too, that I don't already know about. You need to trust people to do that xx
I'll do my best to ensure you keep learning in Science. Outside AB, I have a somewhat more positive reputation for being able to explain things clearly but also, more importantly, correctly. So hopefully you'll see that side more.

The only thing I can add is that thinking in the right way doesn't always lead to the right conclusions. So if we disagree on a topic, which is often, then it doesn't necessarily follow that my reasoning was poorly motivated or tainted by personal preference -- certainly no more than anybody else's. Also some topics are just far too open to subjectivity anyway. It would be unfair, I think, to anyone to hold their politics against their science.
Jim, I would always have said you would make an excellent teacher, partly because of your ability to explain things well and partly just due to your patience and responsiveness (which I can still see). Tbh, I think it was the transgender views that stopped me seeing you as a scientist and more as confused. Although I also appreciate you may not care whatsoever xx
Scientists, operating solely within the bounds of materialism, have no clue as to how the universe came into being, or how life began.
Reluctant to admit these massive gaps in their knowledge, they ad lib with numerous possibilities, probabilities, and straw grasping.
The same can be said of evolution. They believe it because their contemporaries believe it and so it is a self perpetuating comedy of errors, and woe betide the scientist who strays from their orthodoxy.
Thanks. I've also nailed the left-wing propaganda side of the job of teaching :)
I am a Christian and I have a passion for the truth.
Manifestly not, because you've swallowed the lie that scientists are ashamed about gaps in their knowledge, or attempt to cover them up. Actually, they are excited by them, and open about them. You don't attract people to science by telling them it's all done already.
Glad to hear it jim:-)
Nailit, gaps in science are there to be filled when an answer comes along. Surely just making things up to fill in "gaps," is not better?
Theland... sorry nailit! X
Surely there must have at the very least been some ooh eeh ooh ah ah, ting, tang, walla walla?
