Ron Howard's Call to Action

E_Nygma says...

he was in the movie waitress recently, which is the only reason i knew. not that i saw the film or anything, i just know that my friend had wanted to see it and then told me about it, in detail, and who was in the role of the grumpy long-time customer who likes pie alright dammit i saw it. and he was brilliant.

>> ^Xax:
Neato! And I also suck... add me to the list of people who, for some reason, didn't realize that Andy Griffith was still alive.

Surprising and sad. It's really short though, I wonder what the general context was and also what he followed that up with..?
Anyway, I hope the day arrives soon, well within my lifetime, when scientific method and resultant fact aren't feared and disputed as something contradicting the idea of a creator. It's just plain wrong to compare the two, because science doesn't claim to have an answer to this particular question (yet) as it's based on the set of laws that just didn't exist before the beginning of time (the Big Bang). The laws and rules of our existence are indisputably set and they're here whether we like them or not; by defying them (imagining the occasional 'miracles' and expecting divine interventions) and defying the need to study and understand these laws, one is hindering our progress as a civilization - usually because one is accustomed to and wants to maintain the current status quo (i.e. they're well off) and is afraid (or purposefully intimidated) of change.
All the ancient nonsense that was made up to "explain" the unknown should and probably will eventually be discarded just like the heliocentric model was accepted by (the majority of) the sane world, and all that would remain afterwards would be folks that have been made believe via indoctrination. And when we'll finally be rid of this final despicable abusive parenting malpractice (and I do believe there will come such a day), we will have freed ourselves from one of the most oppressive shackles in our species' history.
Now there's a day full of tears of joy I am so looking forward to!


Except science doesn't deal with the main element of the question people pose with life. Science doesn't deal with truth, only observed trends which can't even be called facts as far as I would define a fact. A fact is a certainty, and I define certainty as perfect knowledge that is total security from error. This can never be achived with sceince as it deals with percived phenomina and not noumenon. Kant was the one who ended up saying that the limmits of reason open up the doorway to faith.

I am not an saying science is useless or anything, it got us to the moon, and other neato things. But it doesn't ever have a claim to truth, or as you would put it facts.

Moreover, the more we learn about the the "laws" that govern all that is around us, we find that it has no certainty in the quantum relm at all. Things do not play by any set of rules, and indeed, it seems random in nature. Thus overuling any model that could say with true certainty that it had discovered the facts of the univerce. The fact is, that science doesn't deal with facts and has no method of proving things true, only methods of proving them false.

Might I remind you that sciece doesn't even have a proper explanation for gravity or even more simple, mass and how it is created. Moreover, those are things that are the basis for all other things built on top of them and yet they go unanswered. Science is the new abuse in it scope of what it says it has answers to and the relm of life that it holds to have answers for.

once again I'm all for science, being a scientist myself (as my frequent mispellings should indicate ), but it will never replace the faith element by Kants own admissions. (I view Kant as the father of empirical thinking, but there are others like hegal and hidigar that point out some of the main problems with the limmits of reason)

edit, or ya, and on topic for this movie, his views on evolution shouldn't have anything to do with his revolutionary ideas on getting back to the small government topology. Completely irrelvant just as what his faith is or isn't. Unless now anyone accociated with faith is now automatically a moron; in which I find to be an very bigoted way of thinking and not conforming to the so called tolorance that I keep hearing people claim should be the order of the day.

Maatc Successfully Pulls Off the Escalopter Trick

How in the heck did this happen? I just google'd escalopter (again) and found the page below with a link to the original escalopter video (the girl) and the thumbnail image is titled "escalopter.jpg". It definitely wasn't there before we coined the phrase, so I ask you, how in the heck did they discover our © term? Neato.

What made you join VideoSift? (Sift Talk Post)

I was reading Mental Floss magazine, which had an advert for Neatorama, which at that time had a widget (?) w/ VS's top 15. Watched those from Neato for a while, then I was hooked. I don't get enough mental/social stimulation living out here kinda isolated like I do... polishing the reproductions of pre-colombian psychoacoustical ceramic whistling vessels that my hubby makes, being a housewife, mommy, teacher...
I don't get out much because every time I do, I somehow always end up thinking what a boring waste it was, that I would have had much more fun if I had just stayed home. Yes, I'm working on that.
You all provide intelligent and fun social relief, but as cool as this is, I can't exactly call any of you up and have you over for dinner & a dip in the hot tub under the stars. I can't ask you to water my plants while I'm gone on a trip & so on... but I like you anyway!
