Quote from: Bentley Bullet on April 16, 2019, 04:28:37 pmHe was a bit of a loner at school apparently and it must have rubbed off a bit when his goalkeeping talent led him to be sent to Coventry.He might be scoffed at for being as daft as a brush for not having the same views as hundreds of highly skilled scientists, but there are millions of religious people, for instance, who have different views to many of them also.And then there are the many highly skilled scientists that are also religious too, like the great Sir Isaac Newton.

BS.It means entertainers are really good at entertaining, but I prefer to trust technical things to people who understand technical issues. So, I'd trust someone who was an expert in physics and engineering to run a nuclear power station rather than a comedian.And I'd put more weight on the studies of people who study climate science than in the batshit predictions of an ex-footballer who thinks the world is run by reptilian shape-shifters.What religious belief has got to do with owt on this thread has properly baffled me though.
BS. I used to find Rik Mayall quite entertaining but I wouldn't have trusted him to run a nuclear power station.
BBI was joining in the light heartedness until the point where I had to explain my humour. Then I figured folk were getting serious, so I thought I'd join in being serious.Which scientists were you thinking of?
My gobbledygook is out of touch with reality?That might be the single most depressing thing I've read on here from an intelligent person.What you call "gobbledygook" is the process which has given you bridges and high speed trains and mobile phones and computers and jet engines and medicine. It's what the reality you experience every day of your life is founded on. Why on earth would you be so dismissive of it?
Listen to Nick Ferrari? No. I was sticking pins in my gonads. I find it less painful and more useful.
