re: What makes you a science denier?

Evolution and the big bang theory have more holes than the Titanic. Science believers can't buy that God could create the world out of nothing, but yet they can believe that life and rocks could erupt out of nothing with no help.
One big problem with science is that it's created by man, who is extremely imperfect and always has a self serving agenda. Science has perpetually proved itself wrong.
Wow. There are adult humans that actually buy into this drivel?

To answer your question, not believing in ADD, ADHD, or Dyslexia would make you not only a denier of science but simply ignorant. "Global Warming" is still up for debate. The Earth actually warming is a fact, but the jury is still out on the cause being solely human. Either way it doesn't matter because there is no reversing the situation. Being a Homosexual is real, there seems to be a lot of those these days. I don't see how it could be a scientific disease, but if that's the way the feel so be it.

Probably, but I feel like I assume that people are trolling when they take absurd positions like that too much. Some people really do hold absurd ideas. Either way my thoughts are fine to be out there for whoever.

So you choose to believe that the universe and life on Earth was all just by random chance? That's like saying if you gave a billion chimps a typewriter that one of them will bang out Shakespeare, it's not happening. We know the universe had a beginning so therefore it is not eternal meaning a eternal creator is the cause of the universe.

I don't know what I believe. Also, I won't mock someone just for being religious. Faith can be an important virtue. I'll mock them if they are 100% anti science. Did you even read what he said? No hyperbole, it may have been the all time stupidest post on this website. Moreso the second part than the first.

it's not a billion chimps
it's an infinite number of chimps
it's a theorem used to display the concept of "infinite"

I don't think that I am knowledgeable enough about the science to have a very firm opinion about the man caused global warming stuff, but there is something to it when a large portion of the scientific community has gotten behind it in a variety of ways. I have been very skeptical of it in the past. Either way I do think that something is happening with the temperature which should be paid attention to. Also, I do know that there is plenty of evidence that man has been causing great damage to the environment, and we should be more conscious of such things going forward at the least. It has been proven that we can poison our resources.
As for the ADD, ADHD, and dyslexia part, it is a thing I'm fairly sure. I don't deny that. I do think that ADD and ADHD have been greatly over diagnosed, and it is a diagnosis that was given to any children of my generation that went to a doctor to seek it. The parents either didn't feel like dealing with the child, or the child wanted to get his hands on the legal speed that is prescribed to go along with that diagnosis either to help study or for whatever reasons. I don't think drugging our youth is a constructive way to deal with an issue. People I knew on that stuff were often miserable. That's my issue with ADD and ADHD, although I'm not sure that makes me a science denier.

No we don't.
Also, your analogy about the chimps is poor. If we had an infinite number chimps to type out an infinite number of unique variations then yes, shakespeare could possibly be found amongst those along with everything else ever.

These I agree with. It's funny how it's more prevalent in affluent areas. Seems to me a lot of parents just want to zombie out their kids. The doctor who "discovered" the "disease" even admitted it was bullshite on his deathbed.

artificial global warming
Yeah. It's being incredibly intellectually dishonest to even pretend we have an inkling of a clue either way here. We have MAYBE 200 years of recordable data. That is way too small a sample considering the earth is billions of years old. Who knows if climate change is just a natural cycle or something we've created. The grant $ tends to lead me to call bullshite on the academic types.

psychology is a load of subjective bullshite.
Some of it has merit, but a lot of it is subjective bullshite---just like any "soft" science.

lgbtqzx is" normal."
Agreed. I think some people are genetically predisposed, but it is clearly a mental issue. Just like people who eat paper and chalk, it's not natural and there's a mental issue going on here. To have someone who is "trans" want to cut their dick off is mentally ill. It's a sham that doctors have to sit there and humor their mental illness and "normal" instead of referring them for mental health help.

I think it's parents who want to be able to say "no my kid isn't dumb, he has ADD!"

No, just cognizant of the fact that organized religion has impeded scientific progress for centuries. Your ancestors were the dumbasses of years past who believed the universe was centered around the earth, etc
Catholics and the catholic church have actually been at the forefront of many scientific discoveries and breakthroughs.
Now the protestants and the "rapture" types have really given Christianity a bad name in the scientific community denying such simple truths as how old the earth is and other very obvious observations.
In fact, many catholics do believe in evolution.
