Here is a link to a really great ten minute long video that a few here might benefit from.
In a day and age where myth, voodoo, unquestioning religious compliance and ignorance are embraced by so many this is a must see. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-h9XntsSEro |

No surprise utube took it down.
Last I checked it's available here too. http://www.i-am-bored.com/bored_link.cfm?link_id=37441 Damn...you are entertaining raiderfan. Not as much fun as Gio but he has that wonderful Italian Chicago thing going for him that makes him as cute as he is funny. Hey Gio...hope you are well.

A very good instructional video but contains a few biases of it's own, like relating theory to fact in such a tight way that some scientists do.
Having a degree in Physics, I know and frequently converse with a great number of "scientists" and not all of them would share the opinions about the big bang, evolution, or even quantum mechanics that seem to be the mainstream. I like science, but scientists have their own biased opinions about the nature of reality that are reflected even in the way that they design their experiments. Have someone dig up a copy of the Einstein-Rosen paper and give it a nice thorough quality check (you will need a LOT of mathematical and if possible physics experience to see the problem) and you will begin to see how sometimes even recognised scientific theory reduces to gibberish and dreamlike perceptions of reality that are NOT based on observed data. Like I said, I like science. It's kind of my life, and I'm not even going to start with my opinions/theories on these matters as that would go beyond the scope of the post (and the analysis that I have written so far constitutes several volumes), but take everything with a grain of salt, even scientific theory and especially medical and psychological theory. Just my two coppers, the Geckgo |

Good post s1owhand, Richard is probably the greatest physicist of all time, forget about Einstein, Newton, Hawking, and Bohr. If you want something explained properly, Rich is the guy that you go to. He has quite a few books out there too. Good reads all of them.

is it so hard to put a "[ url] [/url ]" in with your links?? really. if you want me to see something, do yourself a favor and make it a link.. Get a browser that allows you to highlight and drag the link to open it in a new window. That's simple too... Or ask the powers that be at Mingle to add a url button to their code, that's simple also. Also you can highlight the address and drag it to your address bar. If your browser can't do that, get one that can. |

but on the topic of the video, there wasn't much there to disagree with. everyone has their biases, even the strictest and most rigid of scientists. I know geologists with PhD's that will swear up and down that global warming is hands-down, man-made, no doubt about it, in the face of contradictory evidence because it fits their political view. Ivory tower intellectuals, the lot of them. Hardly ever spent a day outside the golden cloak of academia, so... It appears there is more than enough ego and arrogance and bullheadedness on both sides of the issue of global warming. |
