this is a thought that I have been wrestling with for, ohhhh five minutes. So i'm sharing it with you ghost people who may in the future read it. So i'm sure we all know about the tornadoes the ripped through kentucky and beyond. my thoughts initially had to do with the outpuring of food, money, and community resources by local churches, as well as parishes all across the country. I find it to be one of those overlooked elements in the athiests argument. I will add, in an almost painfully cliched way, that i'm an athiest. thay being said , i'm also 31. iv'e come to the very real understanding that people's values are unshakable. And only through deep personal understanding can one develop those values. no ammount of comment trolling or reddit posting will do anything to change the world. so i despise reddit, for it's misinformation (mostly regarding news), and for the way it assimilates people into becoming unsocial, A.D.D-like automotauns. It saddens me to no end to see human discourse and interraction de-evolving. But it was the Church! the church! that renewed my faith in humanity. they didn't donate for karma points, or for self entitlement. they walked out into their community and
got people back on their feet. by no way will this make me somehow a believer in god. but it certainly reinforces the notion that these ghost people, offer nothing to society, and the complete lack of honest discourse in this country is sad. comment as needed.

This is to address the sifters who know me from my
Trolling past. I'm happy to say that I now am
Living a happier life. P.t.s.d is becoming a fading
Memory, I found an amazing girl, and I have a career
That I love. I apologize for my Past transgressions.

I got to say, Astrophysicists are the creationist of the scientific community. Almost every single modern theory regarding this subject is completly untestable. And in every other scientific discipline you cannot even create a hypothesis unless it is 'testable' let alone assert it as being a theory. Try publishing an ecological journal without signifigant testable data to back you up; It would be your last. You certainly wouldn't be visited by nerds, sipping wine at a vineyard talking about your insane ramblings. A theory based on what? the fact that another scientist cannot test it to be false simply because it is physiclly impossible? That logic is exactly aligned with religions 'faith' based principles that we all love to bash so freely. I think We can only say that certain sub-atomic and atomic particles react a peticular way. But making wild assertins as to how, why, and how we can manipulate those wild assertions is where we all went astray. I blame Einsteen, He duped the entire world, and became an icon to astrophysicists. So now they all follow his very arrogant and presumptious methodology. Being right 2 or 3 times when you were wrong hundreds is a terrible ratio for any scientist...well except for...you know fake scientists like these guys. ohhh snap, ecologists talking trash...what Son! We run this bitch!
And Relying soley on Mathamatics it very very faulty. Even newton who was thinking way beyond the scale of any measurable device was innovative enough to create devices to test his hypothosis'ss's. The bottom line is, it's not a theory unless you can repeatedly test a hypothosis as being true, beyond crunching numbers. Face it, you can bend any number into another to bolster a pre-existing concept. So I don't want to hear any rebuttle about how this is different because the scale is so much more vast than 'typical' science.

Much better post. I was searching for a while and I couldn't find anything decent.
