They failed with and without the human variable. No question about that. Now teaching methods could be improved and made more personal, sure, but starting to teach bullshit is not a solution.WorldisQuiet5256 wrote:Did you factor in the Human Variable?

Re: Happy board
You been digging in Bull Shit? I just wanted you to make sure that you didn't forget to look over the wall that seems to be stopping people thinking for some time. I didn't ask you to dig in Bull Shit.
What I meant by the Human Variable is, if we were still thinking like Animals Eons ago we wouldn't be having this conversation. I know this floor is beneath me, I know what you can and can't do. I'm just saying if you can't do something, defined why you can't. Then Make a Solution from the Fact of why you can't.
If there is a Wall in your way, then go around it. If that same Wall is in your way again, then create something that allows you to turn your Cells Transparent for the moment so you can walk past the Wall.
Just FYI all the simple stuff is already taken.
De'sa Vu'.

Re: Happy board
... ie. tell people about expanding earth,new earth creationism etc. and then tell them WHY it's wrong.
Is this my final form?

Re: Happy board
Why not just tell people WHY we think the things we know are right, because a different flavor of bullshit is bound to creep up from somewhere. Nobody has time or money to organize a "Course in which We Debunk Ridiculous Bullshit People Still Believe" like, flat Earth http://theflatearthsociety.org/cms/index.php, Mayan calendar/Nearest apocalypse www.youdontneedalink.com, geocentricism http://www.galileowaswrong.com/galileowaswrong/, hydroplate "theory" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zkrJG4XUeo, homeopathy...The Kakama wrote:... ie. tell people about expanding earth,new earth creationism etc. and then tell them WHY it's wrong.

Nobody needs to, either. If you pay attention in your normal classes it should be obvious why those things are Ridiculous Bullshit.Anteroinen wrote:Why not just tell people WHY we think the things we know are right, because a different flavor of bullshit is bound to creep up from somewhere.

Your reign is ever growing
Spreading like a moss
across rock, under sky, over roots and the thorns
your reach is ever growing, spreading like a moss

Re: Happy board
There is a differences between Bullshit and things yet to be Discovers. I know the World not flat, people who do are entitle to their opinion, doesn't bug me out they think the World is flat.
They say it impossible to enter a Black Hole and live, but to defined why it can't be done, which is the huge infamous center of gravity would stretch you out like a Noodle. Now we know why we can't do it so we create some kind of Craft we could fit in. The Craft Generates a reverses affect on the outside of the Craft Hull to stabilize the result of entering the Black Hole and survive its Stretching effect. Now the rest after that gets complicated, but that is how my Mind is free of all Boarders.
The only way it would be impossible to enter a Black Hole and Live would be if it was not enter able (as in not in a funnel shape) but merely a Wall.
