Richard Dawkins Q&A at UC Berkeley (March 08)
>> ^schmawy



Totally wrong. The argument is that he never said that they should be 'prosecuted' for it.

Robert Anton Wilson explains Quantum Physics
Great until just before the end, the concept of 'reality tunnels' is a bit too new age-y.
Someone's perception doesn't change what's actually in this universe in front of them (don't forget the other physics).

Richard Dawkins Confronts Skeptical High School Students
>> ^MINK:


"evolution is the explanation for our existence"

HOW? explain to me how evolution is the explanation for our existence you pompous twat. I watched loads of your videos and all you can prove is that we evolved. From WHAT motherfucker?


apes. or much earlier : a bacteria-like lifeform.
before that?
nucleic acids.
before that?
molecules, many of which that came about from the death of massive stars.
before that?
the big bang.
what caused that?
probabilities.
dawkin's doesn't need to use anthropic/philosophical reasoning though, he uses scientific FACTS for his arguments. which is why everyone fails if they disagree with him - because he's right.

Why do people laugh at creationists? (part 1)
i agree regarding the anthropic principle. the reason scientists don't use it though is because it's mroe of a philosophical position rather than something proven, it's of course correct though..

Paul Jay Speaks about The Real News Mission
We'll never know if we're being lied to -for our own best interests (at least in the short term).
Personally, i'd prefer to know the truth.

James Randi debunks Dowsing
that guy made a living out of dowsing, what a dick.
reminds me of how thousands of people were employed until the '80s as psychological analyzers based on people's application form handwriting. if people bother to do some scientific testing before-hand they'd know that they're blowing their money on these people for no reason.

Life on Mars?
>> ^shuac:
I know what they found: oil.


i wouldn't be surprised, i'm suspicious about why they spend so much money on these missions. seems likely those in power are just attempting to gain more power.

James Randi debunks Maureen Flynn (1991)
that last psychologist, Sue Blackmore, did an excellent TEDtalk about Memes and Temes. I'm surprised at her saying she doesn't understand it, she must mean in a strictly scientific way and not what is obvious to skepticism.
