Sometimes the men do not convey their woman’s words. If this happens, the woman starts to sing. Men are not permitted to speak whilst a woman is singing. Som…[Read more]

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 1 week, 3 days agoWhy do humans have their particular social norms regarding sexuality and gender?
There is no social norms rearding sexuality and gender for humans. They vary greatly from place to place and over time. Even within the same country there are enormous differences per culture, class, education, profession etc. In some parts of the world women…[Read more]

Human sexual behaviour differs from…[Read more]

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 1 month agoHow did astronomy become a religion?
A short answer is that during the USA/USSR Cold War, a few astronomers became addicted to taxpayer money. Their addiction repeated that of dam builders in the early 1900s, and of highway builders in the 1950s. A lesson is that starting taxpayer subsidies is difficult; stopping them is more difficult.
A longer…[Read more] -

“The Large Hadron Collider mapped the whole human genome in 2001-2002” – This is so laughably incorrect I’m forced to be extra skeptical of every word I ever see you write. It’s like saying Christopher Columbus was the first elephant to fly around the world… it’s THAT wrong.
Also, why have you posted directly into the group rather than making a…[Read more]

The EU model says electricity (lightning bolts far larger than any we know) made the craters–be they round or any other shape.
[…]But the video shows no such lightning. Why should its analogous cosmic process differ?

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 3 months agoJust like me Tom you have rights but your ideas don’t. Telling me I should not debate an idea in a forum is suspicious. It is not name calling. I have read most of the pdf. I cannot see the value of the EU hypothesis.

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 3 months agoWhen someone tells me that their idea, … is not open for debate I am immediately suspicious. It is not debate that they want to stifle, it is dissent.
…calls to not allow debate (in a Forum that demands evidence and reason in its title!) smacks of quackery rather than dissent.

Thanks, Tom – you always seem to give me a healthy skepticism for ‘scientific announcements’.
Strega, when government departments have done what Congress funded them to do, Congress cuts their budgets and they have to reduce their payrolls. This time it’s NASA’s turn.
