(11,746 posts)I know enough in fact to know that the understanding that you have thus far displayed indicates to me that you are not equipped to appreciate the concepts I related to you. I am also skilled enough to see that you attempted a fairly low level appeal to my ego instead of admitting that you don't really understand current theories about who and what we are and about our universe.
Of course my evidence is circumstantial but them most evidence is circumstantial. I have a reasonably objective argument and I openly and eagerly invite you to prove me wrong.
I presented a truly interesting, no, utterly fascinating twist to opening post. You really ought to open your mind a little. My person here is of no relevance and your attack on me is a waste of bandwidth.
We are learning some absolutely incredible things. As I said we have potential. But just yesterday I was listening to something about how the ocean is expected to rise 2 meters or more by the end of this century. This is good science, but do you know what our fellow humans did in South Carolina? They outlawed developers from anticipating any rise in sea level in their coastal development plans.
Unfuckingbelievable or what? And you question my lack of confidence in our species?
