Cats also fail the laser pointer test. They never ever figure it out. You can give them the laser pointer test for hours and hours and they will never be an inch closer to working it out.

Not true. We know that consciousness is not a software program running in the "wetware" of our brains. That idea, that the mind is to the brain as software is to hardware, has been proven false. Humans and some primates or maybe a few cetaceans are self aware to a degree that is unimaginable for virtually all life on…

Your cat will eat your face. If you should pass away in a room with a cat it will eat you. Why? Because a cat is not a little person in a cat suit. It is nothing more than a bundle of behaviors triggered by stimuli. Stimulus, response. That is all there is to being a cat, any cat.

Dolphins are self aware, cats, even your house cat, are not.

So this is only for models. *Most* people really shouldn't be seen in the all together.

Are they functional? Cause I remember a few parties where these might have come in "handy".

Yup, my first thought too.

Leonard Susskind would have also thought it bizarre that you think there is no evidence for the big bang or that you think brane theory is somehow an alternative to it. The very fact you say such things shows me that you have no idea what you're talking about. That isn't an insult, it's just the truth. A condition…

No and. I just think she looks a little bit trans. I can't be sure of course and I have trans friends with more classically feminine faces so you never know but she kinda does. Not that I care, in fact, I'd like them to have an openly trans character played by a trans woman. Did you think I was gettin' mah hate on?…

She looks transsexual to me. Her face is masculine.

Argumentum ad populum fallacy. The fact that a majority of Christians or Muslims or Jews believe that creationism and evolution are not mutually exclusive does not make them so. Your incredulity at the idea that evolution is necessarily exclusive of creationism is yet another fallacy and likewise false. Belief in…

He explicitly denies he believes in evolution. "Until then, I will have faith in a creator" So I don't know where you're getting this idea that one can say one believes in "a traditional, materialist, scientific cosmology and timeline" and then turn around and say you also believe in a creator god. The two are…

Magical thinking is a real bitch isn't it?

Evolution is not irrelevant to his claim that it takes as much faith to disbelieve in creationism as it does to believe in it. Aside from being wrong, it does not take faith to disbelieve in creationism, he is also implying it takes faith to believe in evolution because that is the only scientific alternative account…

"Actually, we don't have scientific evidence proving the Big Bang. "

To be fair there is as much "science" in Star Trek as there is in the Bible or any fairy story.

I don't think I attacked him at all. I simply pointed out some errors. It is not a personal attack to say someone is wrong about matters of fact. I also mentioned he is wrong about the big bang in addition to being wrong about evolution. There was nothing before the big bang because the big bang is the beginning of…

Christian fundamentalism is a modern theological idea that is a reaction to the enlightenment. According to trad. Catholic theology fundamentalists commit the heresy of idolatry because believing the Bible is the literal word of god is no different than believing a statue is literally one's god. Still, it does not…

"it takes just as much faith to believe in creationism as it takes to not believe in creationism"

Teflon spray exists and it doesn't act like the stuff in this video.
