Don't Believe this Thread x2

Someone should make Emoticons the Movie. A movie about the life of emoticons living and working in emoto City. Featuring all the emoticons and their respective icon personalities.

I would totally watch that movie.

But beliefs don't have flaws?

Science and religion are both based on beliefs. This is true regardless of possible flaws. I suggest you research how many times "Science" was wrong throughout history. You will find in modern times "follow the science" should be taken to mean "follow the money." You are looking for truth and meaning and you're at the cross roads.



Start with the hysteria of global temperature change due to human industry. I grew up with the scare of global cooling. In fact, 4 times in the 20th century, this sensationalism oscillated between hot and cold. The common denominator is man's new age original sin of seeking a better life style AND if we pay more taxes, the weather will be gooder.

I also lived through thinning ozone lie, which needlessly got rid of aerosol spray and the supposed horrors of DDT, which lead to 2 million deaths due to malaria. Look up the scientific origins to the expression about blowing smoke up one's behind.

Per our earlier discussion, could you replace the box marked "Knowing" with "Possesses Justified Beliefs", please?

I can't do that.

I can't do that.

You can if you want to and if you have the right graphical editing software.

Ask yourself: What would be both necessary and sufficient justification for what I believe? Is it always possible to have both necessary and sufficient justification? How do I deal with probabilistic phenomena and uncertainty?
