I'm so glad there finally is a good site to explain this controversy.

Ahaha, I hope everyone realizes that is a joke site spoofing the Discovery Institute, the crackpots that invented Intelligent Design.

Yeah. I almost unleashed a wrath of sarcasm. :redface: I've heard some wild ID explanations, so it's understandable.

Heh, it's not far off the mark, unfortunately.

It was pretty obvious after about 1/4 way through it. Brilliant posting. It's a nice combination of what Creationists say as opposed to what they actually believe. I mean, really, nobody could be stupid enough to believe that ****; it's all political.

I was too, until I read where they call Ann Coulter a "moral giant"!

I met a man the other day who believed that dinosaurs lived with man 6000 years ago and that Carbon-14 dating is a conspiracy.

Up until then, I had my doubts that these people actually existed...

That night, I went home and wept for humanity.

I met a girl who had been taught that when I was in the fifth grade. She also told me that I was going to hell if I didn't accept jesus as my lord and savior. I've not been suprised by much in that regard since then.

The Fundamental Method:

Read religious tome - do not question!

Only hypotheses in text are admissible and irrefutable.

Test outcomes are predetermined by fiat.

Apply belief system to distort observations.

Nothing changes.

Repeat at least once per week.

Under irrefutable scientific proof, reinterpret text every 500 years.

No, this is called crackpottery. (and religious beliefs are not the only domain in which it's seen)

Did not Franck Zappa write a song about catholic girls ? Maybe she just meant she wanted to see you again in Heaven.

I work with a Young Earth Creationist. You would not believe what comes out of this guy's mouth. He is in complete denial. :bugeye:

A social worker told me that the tenth planet is Nibiru, that it enters and leaves our galaxy every 10,000 years. When I asked him how a planet could move faster than the speed of light, he asked me how we know what the speed of light is. I gave up.

Ahahaha.

That's actually so scary. :eek:

The Urians from the 13th planet, who are much more advanced than the Nibiruians (or us obviously) left us a coded message on cave walls in eastern Brazil. That's how we knew first. Then of course, we could also measure it.

I knew a drunk who told me that he was the fifth Beatle.

People who drink are so freaking stupid! :smile:

I went home and cried for humanity.

Oh boy. A coworker was convinced that none of the detainees at Guantanamo were being tortured because "at no point were their lives at risk." When I asked him if putting hot coals against his feet would still not constitute torture since his life was not at risk, he stopped to think a bit.

It's just a theory.

I remember after a day of digging minerals going into the local rock shop to say hi to the owner. There were 2 women in there buying crystals. One was apparently a green horn at this because she picks up a huge quartz crystal and with a smile says, "look at this one!"

Here friend makes this headlong dive behind a display, and lays there in a cold sweat. She yells from the safety of her bunker, "Are you nuts! Never point a crystal with that much energy at a living being ever again!"

Her friend burst into tears. We instantly burst into wild laughter.

FAQ: Can Re-discovery.org Unlock the Secrets of Theory?

Can Re-discovery.org really unlock the secrets of theory?

As a scientist, I cannot definitively answer this question as I am not familiar with the specific website or organization. However, it is important to approach any claims of unlocking secrets of theory with a critical and skeptical mindset. Scientific breakthroughs and discoveries are typically made through rigorous research, experimentation, and peer review, rather than through a single website or organization.

What sets Re-discovery.org apart from other websites or organizations claiming to unlock secrets of theory?

Again, I cannot speak to the specific website or organization mentioned, but it is important to carefully evaluate any claims made by websites or organizations. Look for evidence of scientific research and peer review, as well as reputable sources and credentials of those making the claims. Be wary of any claims that seem too good to be true or lack supporting evidence.

How does Re-discovery.org approach unlocking secrets of theory?

Without specific knowledge of the website or organization, I cannot provide an answer to this question. However, in general, unlocking secrets of theory often involves a combination of theoretical and experimental research, collaboration with other scientists, and rigorous testing and analysis of data. It is a complex and ongoing process that requires a solid understanding of scientific principles and methods.

What impact could Re-discovery.org's discoveries have on the scientific community?

Again, this would depend on the specific discoveries and their validity. Scientific breakthroughs that are supported by evidence and verified through peer review can have a significant impact on the scientific community, leading to new understandings and advancements in various fields. However, it is important to approach any claims with caution and to critically evaluate the evidence and research behind them.

Is Re-discovery.org's approach to unlocking secrets of theory scientifically sound?

Without specific knowledge of the website or organization, I cannot answer this question definitively. However, as a scientist, I would recommend carefully evaluating any claims made and looking for evidence of scientific research and peer review. It is also important to consider the credentials and expertise of those making the claims. If these are lacking, it may be best to approach the claims with caution and seek out additional sources of information.
