He's a science major. So am I. I'd rather see people who believe in and studied in the sciences actually teaching SCIENCE.

I'm guessing that by "political indoctrination" he means any science that contradicts his worldview.

Also, just because extraterrestrial life is likely to exist doesn't mean that it has visited Earth. But there are UFOs - as that just means flying objects that we can't identify. That doesn't mean they are alien spacecraft, though.

You should check out a show called: The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. There's evidence now of a portal that goes to knows where at that place, along with U.A.P.'s and U.F.O.'s. Even the government is now interested. Someone or something is communicating on the 1.6 GHz band and it ain't us.

I love how you ask this and yet aren't self-aware enough to come to the obvious conclusion.
The obvious conclusion is that humans have a sin nature that they are born into. LGBT people can change but you all don't seem to believe it.

I wouldn't have regretted it all.

How about all the "normies" trying to convert gays back to straight and causing significant psychological trauma and damage? It's harmful and doesn't work. You first. Stop doing harm.

You obviously haven't watched the more recent episodes. Plus, our military is now overflying the place at night and in broad daylight with their aircraft transponders turned off. Your tax dollars at work if it's a nothing place.

The science that says that:

- Anthropogenic climate change is real
- People are born LGBT
- Vaccines work

And anything else that your favorite right-wing talking heads disagree with.

A BS in Zoology (Now they call it Integrated biology) with a minor in Geology from Michigan State and a year on a MS in Entomology before I got tired of school and dropped out. So once again you try to berate and ridicule, only to show your hate and foolishness. So what degree do you have and from what school?

Wow, so consensus has now become fact. I guess consensus like male can be girls and men have menstrual cycles and have babies is also fact. I can remember when you thought the border wall was preventing migration of animals. You didn't understand the difference between migration and range expansion

If you actually knew anything about science, you would know that nothing is a 100% proven "fact" outside of pure mathematics, because the universe simply doesn't work that way. Even gravity isn't a proven "fact", but that doesn't make it a good idea to jump out a window because there's a near-zero chance you might not fall.

That answers my question, you cannot in fact go 10 seconds without being a bigoted piece of ★■◆●.

You know what the best thing is about the scientific method? It doesn't give a damn what people believe, or what their opinions are. It only cares about whether the objective and repeatable evidence from experiments disproves a hypothesis or not. (As Darth Wang noted, "a hypothesis cannot be proven as truth" is day 1 of most science classes, so you must have slept through that part.) If the evidence is overwhelming toward a certain conclusion, then said conclusion is the best explanation we currently have for the observed events. And the overwhelming evidence states very clearly that sex and gender are two entirely different concepts, and that in some people they are not the same. If you can't deal with that, then too bad, kindly ★■◆● off.

I mean I hope so since our president isn't like with it - I hope there are protocols in place. The Illuminati isn't that crazy, the extent in which the world is affected by them can't be proven but I would believe that powerful families and relationships have influence; look at fraternities at colleges, those dudes always make deals and get each other (and each others' children) internships and jobs. I saw it all the time working in the financial industry - "summer interns!" always had familiar last names to executives and upper management - there are systems and it's not "not in touch with reality" it IS REALITY- it's not even always wrong, family business is ancient business practice.

JFK was not shot by Oswald alone - I don't know that but it seems impossible given ballistic evidence. UFOs aren't crazy because there is no way that humans are the top of the food chain in the Universe - proof is Walmart on a Sunday afternoon.
But you can't believe in a flat moon? Right? Because that would be crazy?
