Read what you type! YOU TYPED: You suggested most youngsters find science wonderful and exciting, like I do! Right back at you!!!!!

No, I don't at all mind you saying! If I advocate for humans to become an interplanetary species with increased lifespan options then I think it would...

Of course you don't, and neither should you. My disdain of JK has not put my sister off him either. She buys a calendar of his quotes every year! :rol...

Your welcome, although I don't know why you are thanking me for your own postings on Quora. I would like a link to your question and your 16 answers h...

The existence of other dimensions I expect but perhaps you should ask a string theorist.
May 19, 2022 at 10:57
Not what I suggested. Space IS one big field of potential. disturbances/excitations occur in space rather than space being separate from the excitatio...

I do and I am no youngster, not physically or mentally! :lol: NO! it's a waste imo.
May 19, 2022 at 10:28
I felt the windy woosh as that one flew right over my head? :lol: 'like cooking a small fish???????' Fractals???? Are you referencing chaos theory? As...

Did those who become priests, ministers, bishops, imams etc not attend school? Were they not taught science? You were taught science and look what hap...

Just because you and Tom feel this way about Science does not make it so. I find Science wonderful and exciting.

We should never accept that the label on the tin, accurately identifies the tin contents. From 'The right honorable gentleman/lady' through to priest/...
May 19, 2022 at 09:59
I do agree with your comment in a general, global sense right now that there is a great deal of apathy in the human global population. I think its a c...

So how do you account for the subject of RE (Religious Education) taught in all Scottish secondary schools and the fact that Scottish catholic schools...
May 19, 2022 at 09:31
I support democracy and majority rule but I certainly would never suggest dissenters just 'suck it up.' Organise, protest, campaign, even engage in ci...

This is one of the dumbest, most obvious pieces of made-up Roman propaganda ever put into the mouth of the invented Jesus character. Caesar was a dict...

I think Australians are moving inexorably in the direction of a 'monarchy-free zone.' I hope Scotland becomes independent eventually, then gets rid of...

Thanks but I don't know which analysis you are referring to? But thanks! :smile: Btw. I can confirm I am male so no need for the sir/madam.
May 19, 2022 at 08:30
I have a sister that would agree with you. We often argue about Jiddu. I think he was a flim-flam man who was clever enough to earn an easy living. Fr...
May 19, 2022 at 08:25
At least your interpretative skills are consistent in this area. Unfortunately, they are consistently wrong. Are you trying to get me, who regularly c...
May 19, 2022 at 08:11
Well, thanks for your opinion of the description of 'bootstrap philosophy,' I inlcuded in the OP. I take it that you also read my words: So I have no ...
May 18, 2022 at 20:30
I would loudly and proudly shout for help and expect it. Why suffer in silence unnecessarily when there is help available and if there is none then I ...
May 18, 2022 at 17:52
I am still pretty foggy on the message here. It could be that Agent Smith is roleplaying me and thinks I should be uttering the words in the quote he ...
May 18, 2022 at 17:33
No, I don't think it is by itself, but it's a contributor. I think you are fundamentally correct in your OP. In my teaching career, I found that the t...

Barbarian was from a Greek word that just meant foreigner. It was the nasty Romans who used it to refer to hordes of tribal folks that just charged th...
May 18, 2022 at 16:03
I haven't completely 'sussed' the subtleties of your approach yet agent smith. Your typing above would suggest your meaning is easy to follow if you l...
May 18, 2022 at 15:25
Cryptic! I think you like the fact that I have no idea if you are attacking me or supporting me. Perhaps a little of both? :chin:

I have very little interest in mysticism!

:rofl:
May 18, 2022 at 12:18
You are quite mystical yourself!
May 18, 2022 at 12:18
No science makes effort to discern between what is plausible and what is not.
May 18, 2022 at 12:15
Anything your unfettered imagination can come up with. Anything goes in your world of woo woo. Your universe could have been created by SCIgod from th...

The nation and culture you are nurtured in, will affect your approach to science in many nuanced ways. Some nuances will be strengths and others weakn...

Is the movement in Australia towards becoming a republic not quite significant now?
May 18, 2022 at 11:55
It's not rational! And your alternative offer is god(s) :rofl: Let the people decide!
May 18, 2022 at 11:52
Well, I am not suggesting you are Egyptian or anything but you are certainly in DEniAl.

He could have but I think he chose not to waste his time. He was published and peer-reviewed. I don't think Einstein was ever concerned about being ba...

I think his up-and-coming paper will suggest equations for loop quantum gravity that do not include a time variable. At least, that's my understanding...
May 18, 2022 at 11:34
They are opposites, positive and negative, opposites. The rational people and the irrational people (like you), opposites!
May 18, 2022 at 11:26
Clever man who sadly, was often very ill and depressed. As I have stated before, I will never understand why he associated with a mystic like Jiddu Kr...

Little E's can make big E's but what are the little E's made of. A fundamental E? E's are also illegal in all night clubs in Glasgow!
May 18, 2022 at 11:17
I think he probably does as I think he sees time as not really having fundamental quanta. Many including I think Brian Cox consider gravity to be a re...
May 18, 2022 at 11:13
:lol: What? So for you, North is not opposite South? I cant debate rationality with an irrational thinker, it's a waste of time.
May 18, 2022 at 11:04
