Bateleur1 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Same as the Chemtrails conspiracy theory. I am schocked here in the heart of the west how many bloody beleive that cr@p.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Seeing more and more of this popping up in my social media feeds. What say the hub? Isn`t science the same as religion? And is the EARTH FLAT? LOL. Science a religion. LOL. Science is the study of things we do not understand, and the attempt to understand those things which we see / find, and is subject to constant revision should there be sufficient conflicting information. Religion is the attribution of everything to a higher power. Nothing is subject to revision. God always did it. Flat earthers, chem-trailers, moon landing sceptics, anti vaxxers, climate change denialists... the list goes on. All batty, and essentially argue from an ideological standpoint. Meaning, really, that no amount of evidence presented as a counter-argument will change their views.

Believing things people wrote who we dont know and taking it as true...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Much like the religion thread Yep When you're holding on to an ideology, you don't accept normal logic and reason when it goes up against that which you believe.
dirtrider Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 The earth is not flat , that I know for a fact but it's not round either . If you keep on walking in one direction you will eventually fall over the edge .
shova1 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 The flat earthers have a society. Check it out.. https://www.tfes.org/ I haven't investigated what goes on there, but should be interesting/entertaining.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Ok lets say its more like faith? Believing things people wrote who we dont know and taking it as true...Hmmm. The difference being that there is just one source of most "faiths" vs the primary tenet of science being the requirement of any theory having to be repeatable, demonstrable and falsifiable. Therefore it's a faith in the system and how it presents things, vs the faith in some 1,500 year old text that was compiled of "eye witness accounts" and 3rd hand testaments.
MTBeer Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 flat earth & religion. same same. believing in something for which there is no evidence.
