Then it isn't science. Peer review would knock it down.

Just because something is published that does not make it science. It is only after peer review and results are able to be duplicated that it starts to form something solid. Anything else is just paid for tripe and is only science to someone who doesn't understand what science is.

Sort of like the video.

And then you have idiots like these in TX that refuse to believe in science and censored a report because it doesn't match their agenda...

I'm speechless... There's no point in voting anymore.


Yea, that's the point I'm at pretty much. On one hand I think the left is absolutely retarded with their give everyone a hug lack of personal responsibility mentality. Then on the other hand I cannot vote for the right in good faith with their hold back human progress because it clashes with the bible views.

That isn't quite necessarily true. There have been a multitude of ideas that at one time were accepted by the scientific community that were later found to be false. Science just tries to give you the best answer that can be determined today.

this is true

which is why i am skeptical when people try to use evangelical tactics to coerce people to believe scientific theories

if your science is valid, it'll stand on its own without nazi cheerleaders

Hyperbole much?

I do not agree with this at all. There are a lot of people who choose to live in denial about science just because it is not compatible with their religion.
