Science!

Is anyone else sick of "science"?

Seems everything these days is justified on the basis of science. Well, I'd rather live a life free from these concerns.

I gave it up after me Junior Cert, never bothered with it since!

Without modern medicine, the computer you are whining on, technology, etc? Welcome to the stone age.

And english! I mean I've, like, neva used that since I left skool. Total waste of time.

Yeah! This 'religion' thing is more appealing.

'Believing in an invisible being' you say? 'He\she\it created everything in seven days' you say?

Sign me up!

At least someone has the courage to say it! Things were so much better when we were living in hedges, catching smallpox and dying of old age at 40. Screw you science!

I quite like science, it sure beats the hell out of imagination zombies and preachy books written by people on some serious acid trips

Then again.. a lot of science is based on stuff you can't see too ..

Totally...I'd rather justify things based on my own narrow minded views & opinions and crazy religious beliefs I've been conditioned to accept as fact without proof.

Who needs informed research as a basis for decision making - look where thats gotten us.

I suggest you get yourself a time machine and go back to the dark ages where science wont bother you. Of course, you'll need science to get yourself a time machine.

Ok so explain then why you would prefer to live in a world without science?

Typical of what?

And can you point me to some research that backs up your opinion?

I saw that last night. If you start at the top and work your way down really fast, it feels like you're falling.

So, can a person not have an opinion unless it is backed up by the opinion of a "better"?

Thought I was the only one! Yay!

But OP please explain your "typical responses" remark! Does not compute! I mean name one thing humanity would benefit without the aid of science!

I direct your attention to this:

How DO magnets work?

HayleyLyons1 · 04-01-2011 11:49AM

I could start a thread on any number of topics and predict exactly what the responses will be, including the "witty retorts", the intellectual replies, the snobs and so on.

People here won't think for themselves, when a topic is supplied they just wheel out their standard response.

As for science, don't confuse years lived with quality of life.

Why did everyone assume the op is a religious guy? Did I miss something here? Why do people always turn stuff into a religious debate..

Science is based on reason.
Abandoning science = abandoning reason.
Thread advocating abandoning science = unreasonable thread.
OP complaining that pro-reason responses are unreasonable = ironic.
Unreasonable person being unreasonable = predictable.

In any case, hokey religions and ancient weapons are no substitute for a good blaster at your side.

Science!
