Ah BADecker's still here then, peddling pills, begging for Bitcoin, preaching the word of his god etc? Hah brilliant.

More than 180 people is not hundreds, that has to be at least 200 people. How many of these people genuinely had non-psychosomatic side effects? Probably less than 10%

How many people have been vaccinated in the US alone? Over 300,000,000 doses. So even 200/300,000,000 = 0.0000067% i think.

Is this the "truth of the dangers" that you're talking about BADecker? Because it doesn't look too dangerous to me. I bet more Americans get injured/die fallling into the toilet, than from any Covid vaccine currently in use there.
2  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Evolution is a hoax on: December 12, 2017, 12:46:45 PM

I have posted several times that if evolved means simple change, then, YES, evolution exists. But if evolution means inanimate to life, or changes that took a single cell all the way to mankind, then NO.

Cause and effect shows that everything is programmed. I understand why there is free will. But general science doesn't.

Cool

But evolution is not about the first cell or inanimate to life. Evolution is described as ''change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.[1][2] Evolutionary processes give rise to biodiversity at every level of biological organisation, including the levels of species, individual organisms, and molecules''

It is change of course, humans evolving from ancestors is a change.

There are many evolutionists who wouldn't agree with you when you say that evolution doesn't include inanimate to life.

Evolutionists describe "change..." that they have never witnessed enough of, to know that what happens therein is evolution in any form that they are talking about. It's all guesswork, and could be described as part of other things, like creation. The simplest of those other ways is cause and effect, which is seen in many things, and is NOT known to NOT exist in anything. C&E suggests programming. And programming needs a programmer, just to exist.

Why do you keep on battling the evident? Are you really trying to make evolution into more of a hoax than it already is?

Cool

You haven't yet made a single good argument against evolution, all of them have been refuted yet you still insist. You keep repeating yourself about cause and effect but you don't even understand what it means, I already showed you that cause and effect does not invalidate evolution, no scientific law invalidates evolution. You are a religious nut that thinks evolution has to be a hoax in order to keep believing in your fairy tail of god.

The best argument anyone can make against evolution is that nobody has made any factual argument in favor of evolution. The two closest-to-factual arguments anybody has made are:
1. Semantics;
2. Political Science (a lot of blabber that doesn't really mean anything).

Cool

1. Transitional Fossils
2. Matching Traits to Common Ancestors
3. Vestigial Traits
4. Observing Evolution Over Short Timescales (Like the moth example but there are other examples worth pointing out. Our war against bacteria is rapidly producing highly resistant strains, leading to fears of a post-antibiotic era. Similarly, many animals are adapting to pesticides, including fruit flies and even rats. In one striking example, the Colorado potato beetle has evolved to resist 52 different compounds belonging to all major insecticide classes.
5. In addition to the theory of evolution, meaning the idea of descent with modification, one may also speak of the fact of evolution. The NAS defines a fact as “an observation that has been repeatedly confirmed and for all practical purposes is accepted as ‘true.’” The fossil record and abundant other evidence testify that organisms have evolved through time. Although no one observed those transformations, the indirect evidence is clear, unambiguous and compelling.
All sciences frequently rely on indirect evidence. Physicists cannot see subatomic particles directly, for instance, so they verify their existence by watching for telltale tracks that the particles leave in cloud chambers. The absence of direct observation does not make physicists' conclusions less certain.
6. NOT CIRCULAR REASONING AS YOU CLAIM. (“Survival of the fittest” is a conversational way to describe natural selection, but a more technical description speaks of differential rates of survival and reproduction. That is, rather than labeling species as more or less fit, one can describe how many offspring they are likely to leave under given circumstances. Drop a fast-breeding pair of small-beaked finches and a slower-breeding pair of large-beaked finches onto an island full of food seeds. Within a few generations the fast breeders may control more of the food resources. Yet if large beaks more easily crush seeds, the advantage may tip to the slow breeders. In pioneering studies of finches on the Galpagos Islands, Peter Grant and Rosemary Grant of Princeton University observed these kinds of population shifts in the wild.
The key is that adaptive fitness can be defined without reference to survival: large beaks are better adapted for crushing seeds, irrespective of whether that trait has survival value under the circumstances.)
7. Evolution could be disproved in other ways, too. If we could document the spontaneous generation of just one complex life-form from inanimate matter, then at least a few creatures seen in the fossil record might have originated this way. If superintelligent aliens appeared and claimed credit for creating life on Earth (or even particular species), the purely evolutionary explanation would be cast in doubt. But no one has yet produced such evidence.


I'm waiting for you to prove the spontaneous generation of complex life, badecker, since you claim god created us.

Actually, most of the things that you talk about in your points, are the exact things that show that there isn't any evolution, when analyzed in detail.

Cool

Show us a spontaneous generation of complex life and you will disprove evolution, just like that. Very easy? How come we have thousands of different proofs for evolution yet no single evidence for the spontaneous generation of life that you claim your god did?

Astargarth makes a very good post here: He provides some solid evidence that evolution exists. However your rebuttal seems to be "well we didn't see it happen, so it's false".

But this logic applies directly to your belief that humans were spontaneously created by god - if this was true, you need to provide evidence of spontaneous generation of life yourself, to raise your evidence to the same level as that of Astargarth.

But you can't, because no such evidence exists. It's all very well to say "this might have happened", but without any evidence you are automatically behind in the argument, because anyone can say "this might have happened" - that doesn't give them any sort of credibility.

Aliens probably exist.

They probably have not visited earth.

Did I just blow your mind?

Mr Vod, I agree with you 100%.

There probably are aliens, but we can never know for sure (or even begin to put an estimate on the likelihood of them existing), until we discover alien life on another planet/moon.

For the moment we just have a single data point - life on Earth. And while it's probable that there is other alien life in the Universe, the chances of us even finding it are miniscule.

It's possible that life is abundant in the universe; it's also a possibility that life on Earth was a huge fluke, and we are the only lifeforms in the whole cosmos.

Another factor to consider is the vast timescales involved, and how long an alien civilisation would exist - perhaps there has already been an intelligent alien civilisation that existed billions of years before Earth even formed, and has since become extinct. We may never know...
4  Other / Off-topic / Re: Scientific proof that God exists? on: November 28, 2017, 05:21:51 PM
For now there is no 100% scientific proof of God existence, but I believe even science will lead us to God existence.

Cause and effect exists in everything. There is no pure random. The thing we call random or probability arises from our inability to see tiny details, like which molecules move a leaf as it twists in the summer breeze.

Cause and effect are like programming. Cause and effect all by itself almost proves that God exists, and programed everything to be what it is.

When you add complexity and entropy to the way things exist and operate, the only way they could exist and operate is through God. If God didn't exist, none of the universe would exist as it does.

None of this explains what God is in detail. We can draw some conclusions about the nature of God from science and observation of nature. But the details are limited without direct revelation from God, Himself.

Whatever brought the universe into existence, no matter what form or qualities He has, It is still God.

Cool

if I had a nickel for every time BADecker mentions "cause and effect" and "entropy" without fully understanding the concepts of them I'd be a millionai... Oh wait I own some bitcoin.

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say, but the links you just posted are pretty much evidence that the UK will be worse off after leaving the EU.

UK remains at the back of the queue - no good trade deals when we leave.

Banks moving jobs away from the UK. Maybe JP Morgan will only do it when the EU orders it, but the EU has all the power in these negotiations, not to mention many other banks have already said they're moving to the continent. Also many manufacturing companies will move to Europe because they will simply make more money there.

The EU is far from perfect, but the UK will be fucked in a year or two IMO, it has nothing much to offer - the big money comes into the UK from the financial sector and they are already making moves to other European countries.

I find it hilarious how you're spewing all this hate for banks and big business, yet still using comments by them to try and prove your point. It stinks of cognitive dissonance.

When the media talks about the US elections (or the Brexit referendum) being hacked, they are being sensationalist. If you look into it, no-one is actually saying that Russia hacked the actual polling stations, or votes.

What they mean is that Russian propagandists infiltrated social media, news sites and comments etc, to influence the result. I think this is objectively true (at least for the US election). It has been proven that many fake accounts were actively influencing peoples' behaviour in these supposedly democratic decisions.

Not only that, but some accounts were promoting division and hate for the opposite side, to cause rifts between voters acting in a 2 party system (or in the case of Brexit, a yes/no binary vote). This increases contempt and instability in a country.

I actually think that leaving the EU was a fucking dumb thing to do, especially for Britain (which doesn't have much to offer in the way of exports and economic power, other than the financial hub of London) but that's off topic.

The thing to learn from this really, is that people should not just "upvote" and "like" every fucking comment they see on facebook or reddit, and base their votes on those sources, without actually researching a little into the subject. It's our own fucking fault, and we should all be very careful about where we get our information, and be very wary of the "filter bubble".

OK I don't really know what you're babbling on about here, but I will say that some of the other EU countries (eg Scandinavian countries, Germany, the Netherlands) have far better public services and benefits than the UK. The reason that the EU is making it difficult for the UK to leave is because they obviously don't want other countries leaving. Of course, that would weaken their economy and the euro currency.

But that doesn't mean that it was a good idea to leave. Wales, for example, was given many grants from the EU to create things like parks, bicycle trails, leisure centres. Now where will that money come from; Westminster? I'd be surprised if Wales continued being funded in the same capacity...

And similar projects occur across the UK, payed for by money from the EU. Not everything is about cold hard cash, many projects the EU financially support give a better quality of life to UK citizens.

Anyway this is off topic, I already explained how Russia didn't actually "hack" the vote, but they may well have influenced voters through deceptive channels, i.e. social media.

Discord and division in the EU and USA would be very beneficial for Russia, there is motive and evidence for their nefarious influence in democratic issues in both of these countries.

To me  i research Newton theorized and it is now commonly taught that the Earth’s ocean tides are caused by gravitational lunar attraction. If the Moon is only 2,160 miles in diameter and the Earth 8,000 miles, however, using their own math and “law,” it follows that the Earth is 87 times more massive and therefore the larger object should attract the smaller to it, and not the other way around. If the Earth’s greater gravity is what keeps the Moon in orbit, it is impossible for the Moon’s lesser gravity to supersede the Earth’s gravity, especially at Earth’s sea-level, where its gravitational attraction would even further out-trump the Moon’s.

So you researched "Newton theorized" and now think you know more about something than 300 years of rigorous scientific testing. OK.

You're correct in stating that the Earth is bigger than the Moon, but that doesn't mean that the larger object just attracts the smaller object. Both bodies have influence on each other, and Newtonian physics perfectly predicts how the two objects interact. Although the gravitational pull of the Moon is smaller, it still exists.

The Moon's gravitational pull doesn't need to "supersede" the Earth's to have an effect on it, and therefore that is what we observe - a very slight attraction of the liquid water on Earth, that coincides with the position of the Earth and Moon.

In fact the concept of the Moon being responsible for tidal activity is reinforced when we study spring and neap tides, which change the tidal level depending on the position of the Sun. But I'm sure you already knew that, seeing as you're such an expert on Newtonian physics.

Please explain why spring and neap tides occur, without involving the gravitational pull of the Sun and Moon.

Tetsuo: The Iron Man (insane cyberpunk body-horror)
Guinea Pig 1 & 2 (uncomfortable body-horror, not for the sqeamish)

Non-Asian films:

Eraserhead (classic David Lynch madness)

Nightcrawler (not a classic horror but psychologically disturbing)

Comedy horror and slasher films:

Evil Dead 2
Hausu (insane 70s Japanese comedy horror)
Tokyo Gore Police
Yakuza Apocalypse (Takashi Miike vampire ninja slasher)

And I stand by my point that a supernatural being cannot be proved by science, because by its nature it is supernatural, and therefore does not follow scientific laws. This renders the being's existence impossible to prove scientifically. I'm still baffled that some people don't understand this simple concept...


Mediumship is a phenomenon that can be tested. A supernatural or discarnate entity can be shown to be the simplest explanation of certain evidence, like in the paper "The Problem of Seth's Origin" or the case of the dead chessmaster who communicated details of his life and played a game characteristic of the prior personality. The hypothesis that is used to explain the existence of this type of personality is called 'survival'.
http://www.aeces.info/Top40/top40-main.shtml

The problem with this type of research is that it's not repeatable, and in terms of scientific evidence it's very flimsy. Similar to the articles you posted about Deepak Chopra and Stuart Hameroff, they have various theories (some of which do make sense) but it's mostly just speculation. And I don't tend to trust speculation very much when it comes from Deepak Chopra, who as I said is clueless about things like quantum entanglement...

Don't know much about Hameroff, I'll look him up.

Edit: Ah, Hameroff co-wrote the papers regarding the Orch-OR model of consciousness, with Roger Penrose. I've read a little into this hypothesis, and it is very interesting to say the least. But it is not conclusive evidence for any sort of consciousness controlled by quantum computation, their ideas have a lot of criticism.
Their theory is the best one on the market, it helps explain the clever behavior of paramecium.
The criticism of Penrose/Hameroff's theory is outdated, more recent papers provide new evidence.
Chopra is not clueless about science since according to Hameroff his view is the right one!

There are replication studies in Parapsychology. Also:
Mediumship can be produced and observed under conditions of experimental control, see Cunningham's paper "The content source problem in modern mediumship research".
I expected a response from YOU, protokol.

Since you did not reply then it is implied that you agree with me that Chopra is right to say that consciousness drives evolution. Also, you did not dispute the idea that a discarnate being is the simplest explanation for cases like Seth and the dead chessmaster.

Orch-OR theory has been validated by evidence. You can even test it yourself (like a real skeptic) by ingesting qubits which will dramatically improve the performance of your local quantum computer or "brain".

A very strong and simple method is just to put Raw Sea Salt in a bottle, say two spoons in a half liter empty mineral bottle, then to fill it with a good cooking oil; then after 2 days waiting, you can just put ONE DROP on your tongue and feel the effects … I was very surprised to find it SO STRONG ! I let you try.

Anyway, for the scientists, it is THE PROOF THAT THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE SEA SALT, and that when immersed in oil, it migrates to the oil ! And it has an immediate (after 2-3 minutes) effect on our human body after ingestion. You can even just put the oil on your skin and the ORMEs will make there way to your blood and you will also feel them very strongly after a short while.
That’s amazing no ? This ORMES/ORMUS are for real, and just next and whitin us.

OK I didn't reply, but not because I agree with Chopra. You are jumping to conclusions my friend, something that people like Chopra do... And yourself.

Your link about "ormus water" is full of spelling and grammar mistakes. This leads me to believe it is not a reliable source, and some of the chemistry is sketchy at best. It literally says

If you look in any physics or chemistry text book for an explanation of what’s going on here, you will look in vain.

So why do you think that is the case? I think it's because the hypotheses are unrepeatable, and to be frank, woo.

You cannot ingest qubits. They are a conceptual idea of information, not an actual physical thing. Like the classic "bit" they are just a form of information, not a physical, tangible piece of matter that you can hold or eat.

Orch-OR is an interesting hypothesis, like I said, but there is not enough evidence for the concept to be taken as fact. This is similar to other hypotheses, such as string theory or the multiverse theory. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that there is not enough evidence to say you are right.
