Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 7 months 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.

So said a well-educated guy.The evidence for a singularity is as real as the evidence for a god.

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 8 months agoThe Large Hadron Collider mapped the whole human genome in 2001-2002.The upshot was there is no gene for LBGTQ- and most certainly not transgender. There is no such thing.

Incorrect.

“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]

I did say, but not clearly, that I will let the evidence prevail.

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 9 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.

…calls to not allow debate (in a Forum that demands evidence and reason in its title!) smacks of quackery rather than dissent.

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 9 months agoReg, I will ignore the name calling in that post and briefly answer two points in it.
It is only through peer review and open debate that we arrive at a theory that has any scientific merit.
1) Currently there are no EUers among the peers.
2) peer review + open debate. Without evidence?Einstein’s ideas on Gravity and Electromagnetism are a…

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 9 months agoNice video, Beanie. But, prepare yourself for the real shocker–and “shocker” isn’t a pun.
The EU model says electricity (lightning bolts far larger than any we know) made the craters–be they round or any other shape.
There is reason for the name “Electric Universe”.

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 9 months agoA couple primary issues top my list about EU, but I have to admit, it took me a couple of fricken hours to discover evidence against the first one, which is their argument supposedly “debunking” the now, well-known physics of how circular craters are created from angled impacts.
I.e., when a projectile hits (say) a planet or moon at hypervelocity…[Read more]

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 9 months agoMy debunking of some of the statements is not meant to be a proof of or evidence for the merits of BB theory. It is a critic of the claims made in the pdf you linked. It ignores the proofs for Relativity and makes other statements that are false. I will debunk more of them later and you can then tell me where I am wrong.

Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 8 years, 9 months agoReg, in 436 words you debunked nothing. Bangers have produced evidence for nothing.
…[modern physicists] put Inflation before the Big Bang.
By putting Inflation before the Big Bang, they moved what contradicts the laws of physics, is untested and untestable, to where it can never be tested.
