re: Why do you think that TD is such a magnet for those with alternative beliefs?

Oh, now the flat earth creationist wants to evoke science, genetics, and evolution.
I guess we found out the cheat code to get creationists to embrace science and evolution: let them think it backs up their white supremacy beliefs.

From what I can understand, there are people out there when they hear about such theories for the first time, they feel like they have received information that the rest of the world doesn’t know about. They somehow approach it in that particular manner instead of discerning whether or not the theories in question are true at all. And anyone who disputes what they say always seem to be mere products of the MSM in their minds as if that’s an inherently bad thing. I know that the MSM has their controlled narratives, but I fail to see how someone is ultimately more knowledgeable about things in the world going down kooky internet rabbit holes.
That is cogent, articulate, and well-considered. I have experienced those thoughts often enough myself.

Is this the new evolution thread since the other one got whacked?

Living in their mom’s basement gets boring. Lots of time to research conspiracy theories

I'm going to start an off-shoot thread:
"Why are militant Atheists, Evos, dogmatic muh-NASA Bing-Banger Zombies so triggered by truth that challenges their Cult Beliefs?
You're sooo sooooft.
New name for your cult: 'The Pamprin Brigade'.

I know that you can't explain anything. You don't see an issue with "evoking [lol]science, genetics, and evolution." You clearly don't think about what that actually means and how it applies. You just hear the words and cum in your pants. They just tell you bullshite and say "it's science" with no proof, and you believe it. That's how dumb you are.

You are in the creationist thread(and hint, genetics and evolution go hand in hand, and they both are under the umbrella of "science").

Bitch, are we going to ever talk about how you didn't understand the math the other day?
Also genetics and evolution are part and parcel. If I took the time to explain it, what would I gain? You are operating in tremendous bad-faith regardless and simply want to choose things as though they were in a buffet when they suit you and drop things when they don't.

You are in the creationist thread
You can't prove gravity in an experiment. Gravity is not "things fall." It's never actually been shown in a repeatable experiment that mass creates a force of attraction. Did you know that?
So if you don't believe in God because "no proof" you can't believe in gravity. "Experts" (High priests) with "pictures" (paintings) and "mathematical theorems on paper" (numerology, theology) are not scientific proof. They do NOT meet the rigor. I need a repeatable experiment. Or I have no more reason to believe in gravity than you do in God, scientifically.

It’s because most of us live in the South, so we’re more conservative people. I don’t know about you, but some of the conspiracy I hear on these boards, are the same crap I’d hear from family members for years. I think most of us down here are just immune to it, and we don’t really believe in suppressing thoughts and opinions down here.

But isn't why astronauts experience weightlessness in space a repeatable experiment that has been done several hundred times in practice not valid? I can write out the proof using two-body equations of motion to show why astronauts experience weightlessness, but somehow I don't think that would meet your completely random standards.

You can see bubbles and green screen artifacts in the spacewalks
And multiple astronauts have said earth is flat.
Appeal to authority is not a standard regardless
more people saw Our Lady at Fatima than have been to space. You want the number of testimonies to be your standard?

See, this is the immense type of bad-faith I'm talking about. You saying it doesn't make it true just like me saying something doesn't make it true. You have to provide very specific evidence for claims of that scope, if we are using the heuristic (as in the scientific method) to solve each and every issue.
There was no appeal to authority here though. The proof for equations of motion in an inertial frame is not an appeal to anything. It is just a set of equations that can provide the framework for why a person would experience weightlessness in space. We can test this and we can test this repeatedly. I can write out the proof but if you aren't using consistent standards, then what is the point? You'll deny the falsifiability of the proof based on things completely outside the proof. That's an incredibly dishonest way of discussing these ideas. I hope you realize that.

We're stripped down to nothing but "what about the spacewalks?" And it's pointed out to you. You can look hard for the scientific, repeatable proof and it will always come down to just trust them, it seems to make sense, the math works out. There's no proof. And you have to confront that.
Posted on 7/19/22 at 11:33 am to Gaggle
That is WHY we "went to the moon", to prove it. That is the only "proof". But it's clearly fake as frick if you look at it. It's an absolute joke of 70s special effects, no one would buy it today. Boomers were really gullible

I look forward to your scientifically established basis for creationism's validity.
Please write out or attach your "repeatable experiment" proving creationsim. After all, you did just say that is the basis through which this belief was established.
