Here's where this kind of thinking leads...false balance and "teach the controversy" instead of informing people. Katie Couric is catching a lot of criticism for it this week

I think the best example of science is the latest finding that black people are predisposed to violence because they have a higher % of the "warrior gene"

science has spoken again...

- most retarded article I've read in a while.ESKEMA
- its said science so it must be true.yurimon
- there's a HUGE difference between simply saying something is science and verified conclusive scientific evidenceZOOP
- factZOOP
- but most of science is theory not fact though...very few scientific principles that make scientific law.yurimon
- aka factyurimon
- there's plenty of scientific factsESKEMA
- I knew it! No wonder I hate these fucking sneaky pussies.utopian
- so can you make a list of scientific facts please that are not theories..yurimon
- how about water solidifies at 0°C and reach ebulition at 100 °C. Is that a theory? Or do you not consider that science?ESKEMA
- who made up the system of degrees? yes it observable but is this aspect true? im a post..yurimon
- "Negative forty is the temperature at which the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales correspond; that is, -40°F = -40°C. Just as ice melts at 33 degrees, just as 13 inches equals 33 centimeters, just as 666 divided by 212 Fahrenheit (boiling point of water) is equal to Pi 3.1415, the serendipitous lineup of Fahrenheit and Celsius at 40 perfectly coincides with Masonic/Mystery school numerological knowledge"yurimon

- is it true also of that fact? similar to the video above. just sayinyurimon
- could be more convincing if you'd referred to zero kelvin as an accurate standard, and less coincidental anomaliesZOOP
- 273.2 lunar months days related to 273.2 kelvin, absolute 0. moon radius .2723 of earths..
tis true? yay or nay?yurimon - please stop feeding the trolls, folkshereswhatidid

This was part of religion.
- Sounds more like math to meukit2
- Part of Hinduism in form of sutras...yurimon
- what Hindu scientific method created vedic math thousands of years ago?yurimon
- People did. Using their brains. It's not hard to grasp.monospaced
- they used meditation etc. introspectively, not by scientific method thoughyurimon
- So what? Math is just truth. It's not a belief system just because the Hindus used it.monospaced
- It's not like it came to them through a fucking supernatural god or some stupid shit like that. Those were some smart guys.monospaced
- Hindu believe god of creation having a dream etc. so go figure. sound pretty supa natural to me.yurimon
- and modern science will dispute introspective observation as bolonie not science.yurimon
- It superstitious at best. I bet they felt special figuring out advanced mathematics. Still doesn't mean it's supernatural.monospaced
- yurimon why don't you go meditate and come up with a cure for cancer then...ukit2
- drugskingsteven
- since that works so well...ukit2
- I don't see anything related to vedic maths that are remotely supernatural in their origin.hereswhatidid
- its part of Hinduism dawg. a religion.yurimon
- the natives medicine men say the plants told them the cures and some of them work..yurimon
- and? does that make it magic or supernatural? not at allhereswhatidid

Great thread, if only we could discuss utopian's love for bronies in the same manner :P

Our reality is a GUI, the Universe is DOS.

So... science isn't a belief system then. It's just a fancy word for "figuring out how shit works." Okay. Good. I know it was hard to grasp but we got there. Figuring out how shit works. That's it.
- Just figuring shit out instead of getting superstitious.monospaced
- Yogis did that also. There are ancient texts that inspired science.yurimon
- Yogis did that also. There are ancient texts that inspired science.yurimon
- So what? Science still isn't a belief.monospaced
- tell that to the vedic yogis or swamis.yurimon
- If someone uses science in a religion good for them. Still doesn't change that science isn't a belief system in itselfmonospaced
- there was no concept of science back then it was considered sacredyurimon
- Science regardless. I consider the truth sacred too. Not a belief system, just more knowledge.monospaced
- There was no concept of gravity either. Did things float around weightlessly?hereswhatidid

This is my knobservation:
Reality is an infinitely complex terrain stretching across an un-ending plane, a rugged surface with deep valleys and mountains taller we are able to imagine. Our perception of reality is a cloth laid over the surface. We desire for these two surfaces to meet - as we progress, we smooth and work the cloth into the faceted shapes below. Where the cloth is close to surface, it reveals the forms beneath, and our perception of reality in these areas is clear. But taking a closer look, we find a finer complexity upon which the cloth does not lie.

OK, so what does a "non scientific" approach look like?
Do you sit around and meditate for the answer? Do you use intuition and feelings instead of rationality?
I'm really curious to hear the answers to this... :)
All this criticism of science and yet I hear no alternative to figuring out similar problems that isn't science. People also seem unwilling to embrace any particular religion, since that's been mostly discredited. So what are we left with? Just some vague new age sense that "there must be more to the world" than what we can see and measure directly. But this is not really a criticism of science...
- they look like tesla., he was a intuitive.yurimon
- you honestly think tesla didn't use the scientific method?scarabin
- not 100% he was intuitive unless his writing or quotes are fake. he talked about how he did it.yurimon
- he might have brainstormed to get started but I'm pretty sure he performed test and experimentsukit2
- he had the whole thing already visualized before he built it. not scientific at all. and admitted knowledge from the etheryurimon
- he took shit further then anyone as far where we are from shit he made and was stolen from him.yurimon
- wireless light bulb late 1800's intuitive bitches http://www.teslasoci…yurimon
- So you're saying Tesla was psychic and designed everything perfect the first time?ukit2

- Tesla was a famous inventor. Has it occurred to you that maybe he exaggerated some of these stories for PR reasons?ukit2
- “Instinct is something which transcends knowledge. We have, undoubtedly, certain finer fibers that enable us to perceive truths when logical deduction, or any other willful effort of the brain, is futile.” ~ Nikola Teslayurimon
- when logical deduction, or any other willful effort of the brain, is futile.”
~ Nikola Teslayurimon - is it true? even einstien "imagination more important then knowledge. "yurimon
- No one is saying don't use imagination. How do you think modern day scientists come up with new ideas?ukit2
- Einstein and Tesla were both scientists.inteliboy
- The world isn't black and white. Scientists don't have evil agendas. And many hold spiritual beliefs.inteliboy
- where you get that from? neither all science lack intuitionyurimon
- Some truth about Nikola Tesla
http://skeptoid.com/…ZOOP - But still. Science isn't a belief system. It's just a fancy word for "figuring out how shit works."monospaced

oooh and
1. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
2. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
3. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.:P
