Scientists find cosmic ripples from birth of universe

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Define irony:

Someone with no background in science who feels they are qualified to discredit the theses of brilliant individuals who have spent a lifetime contributing to a compendium of knowledge.

Right.

That is my main argument to people who just.cant.get.it. People can accept EVERYTHING that comes from science, computers, satellites, medicine, OUR ENTIRE WORLD, and we KNOW it works. You know, because THAT IS HOW WE WHERE ABLE TO CREATE THESE THINGS! And then people dedicate their entire lives to knowing about how things TRULY work, collaborating all around the world, in the past and going into the future. And when they talk about anything that is at odds with stone aged myths, all the sudden, the 'science isnt in' or any other number of excuses, we have heard them all. Are you kidding me?

The other day, in a single conversation. I had an otherwise intelligent person tell me;

1. 'they found noahs ark, they found it!'
2. Carbon dating has been disproven
3. Humans have only been around for 2000 years
4. The bible was written in the 1800s, after science had taken hold, so science has proven the bible true.

This is why people who understand science, and how it really works, get so exasperated all the time.

Come on.

Yeah, I had a guy once tell me that our history had been artificially compressed and that 'known history' all took place within the past 600 years.

People say weird stuff.

1. Unknown. Ridges of a Ark shaped boat was spotted in Turkish mountains. Unproven
2. Haven't heard that claim. So far, it seems fairly accurate.
3. That's dumb
4. Never heard that one. Person should be committed.

Closed minded people are frustrating for people who have actually experienced supernatural events whether demonic in my case or angelic in other's cases. I could care less personally if Dave Lane (who can't even read and comprehend a post) ,has a good spiritual experience upon death. I'm not here to convert anyone. I just pointed out that parts of science like parts of the Bible have been corrupted by man.
Religions have been used and corrupted by political forces for sure.
If you don't think that some scientific theories have been bent or influenced by political or atheist agendas, you are naive. Sadly NASA is being totally Co-opted for political purposes right now.
Personally, I am fascinated by the Cosmos and I'm amazed when people aren't. I've seen science change its collective minds so many times and realize that they build theory upon theory and if a previous theory was just slightly off, it changes everything. Science is about repeatability. Where it fails is explaining the non repeatable or the non constant like the speed of light in a vacuum.http://www.popsci.com/science/articl...ly-study-finds You know nothing about science if you don't know this.
