Yes, the United State3s is in there. Look carefully and you can find us.

With all of the global warming deniers, I wonder if it's accurate...

:?:

But the word "deny" suggests that the Truth has been ascertained by science.

Perhaps it has.

Perhaps it has not.

The entire history of science is a tale of false certitude -- of one dominant theory which rules for a century or more, then is dashed on the rocks of new info.

Why did Galileo run afoul of the Inquisition?

Why did Kepler have to publish when he did?

Why did we arrive at the year 1900 before the work of Mendel, Freud, and Planck was pubished in English and changed the status quo in three different fields?

Thank you public schools! Mention science to most public school students and they'll ask you which movie you talking about.

AW, the little faux science denier. Yes, faux, ignorance and political/industrial denial is soooo much more informed than systematic objective observation and educated principle based reasoning and modeling.

All these deniers prove is their ignorance, malice, and dishonesty with every denial.

Charter schools: in aggregate no better to worse than public schools
Voucher programs: in aggregate no better to worse than public schools

As with most things: Republican success is based on hope and ignorance and denial.

Is there anything more self-congratulatory than some poorly educated liberal assuming his political beliefs are tantamount to universal scientific truth?

The little wannabe faux describes the suppression of science and objectivity by totalitarian political bullies and calls it false scientific certainty.

Can one prove oneself to be more moronic than the little wannabe faux? I doubt it. We all doubt it. He obviously has no concept of what science is or how it works or that the world certainty has no use beyond questioning/evaluating the degree of uncertainty. He has said in the past that the development of quantum theory PROVED the classical mechanical model of the universe was proved to be false. Much to the contrary of what quantum theory does do or that simple fact that the simple classical mechanical model of the universe is alive and well in modern science.

Talk about a moronic fool who divides the world into falsely opposing domains (of which he has no understanding) and you have the little wannabe faux. What a dishonest fool is the little wannabe faux.

Seriously, is there anything more self-congratulatory than some poorly educated liberal like Bilbo assuming his political beliefs are tantamount to universal scientific truth?
