>having a scientific discussion with my mom >she asks me

There are many retards in the world. They all have opinions and they're all shit. Who cares.

I don't judge my mom on her scientific ignorance, nor my dad for that matter (but to a lesser extent). You really can't expect women, especially who may be >40, to truly know or care about higher pursuits of knowledge like that.

>get in argument with my professor for not adequately addressing the flat earth hypothesis during lecture

I refuse to let them brainwash me

>>38593617
Gods I really hate people like that
>>38593775
Since when were you idiots allowed here?

>>38593617
Well according to "science" IQ is 50% heritable... Which means if you have 2 parents, you get half of your IQ from one and half from the other. And statistically, people are most likely to get married to someone in their rough percentile of IQ... Meaning your mother and father are probably equally smart, and you are probably roughly as smart as the average of their smarts.

So basically science proves you're just as dumb as your mom. which means it's extremely unlikely that you were even able to have this conversation.... Post: busted.

>>38593799
You're wrong anon. Someone with an iq of 150 isn't necessarily born from two parents of an iq of 150 or one parent of an iq of 100 and another of an iq of 200.

>>38593617
I feel for you anon. My mom is dumb as shit too, but at least she's aware of it.

>>38593826
That's because there is statistical aberration and the correlation isn't exact. IE your mom and dad can have IQ 100 and you can have IQ 110. Trust me I took a class all about this shit... and you are making yourself sound really dumb right now.

>>38593799
that literally doesn't make sense

>>38593617
Is your mother religious by some chance?

>>38593893
Or maybe your just too dumb to understand high school biology. Tsch, read a book.

>>38593771
I didn't judge her, she's getting old, I know it gets progressively more difficult to grasp new concepts and learn as you get older. I'm 23, it's going to happen to me if it hasn't.

>>38593874
You did say statistically in your post.
You also said my mom's stupidity somehow "proves" my own stupidity.

>>38593775
Egads... the flat earthers are here... All logic and reasoning is futile against them! Run for your lives and sanity!!!!
>*spreads my cape to reveal badass mechanical bat wings and flys to /sci/*

>>38593908
or you guys have a poor understanding of what IQ is in the first place

>>38593898
She is religious, not very though. Our discussion started from there.
Explained to her what religion the Romans followed before Jesus, why they killed him, why he was a danger to the empire.

>>38593915
Let me explain something to you about statistics... it's not exact. Flip a coin 10 times and you wont always get 5 heads and 5 tails. For example you might get 6 heads and 4 tails, or it might even land on its side... That is called statistical aberration, and margin of error. The same thing is obviously happening to your IQ which is why you're not capable of understanding math, science, and reasoning...

>>38593941
Save me as well, they are like the Tyranids or Necrons.

>mfw a thread about low IQ idiots and flat earthers turns into a thread about Warhammer, one of the most epic tabletop games of all time!!!

>>38593975
I understand that, you clearly don't if you think my story about my mom is proof enough to call me dumb.

>>38593972
I do not wish to insult anyone, but perhaps being too zealous may be a factor. But, I believe you should give her some books, maybe stop her from going on such nonsense sites, and explain to her. This mat be a meme tier response but shows like Cosmos and what not can help.

>>38593799
50% heritable means that half of your IQ depends on your environment, you dumb fuck

>>38593999
Literally Flat earther retards need to be bombarded with cyclonic torpedoes from orbit.

>>38593617
You're too smart for this ignorant world you live in. I'd honestly kill myself if I were in your shoes.

>>38594078
I was talking about bombarding flat earthers, from the orbit of an actual, realistic spherical planet. Pls leave the thread.

tfw to intellgent 4 science

>>38594122
From which planet do you think you could do this?

>>38593744
You have the right to an informed opinion, you don't have the right to be a fucking idiot. Kill yourself for contributing and supporting the perpetuation of stupidity.

>>38594114
Living in the delusion that it is flat is even worse. It is clear that you have a low IQ and need to be explained from like a baby. Now, if you are done snorting crayons up your nose, you may take a sceicne textbook and read it.

>>38594122
No wonder you're a virgin, you demented twat.

I was referencing Warhammer 40k, another science fiction universe which you cannot enjoy because of your stupidity. Cyclonic torpedoes are explosives ehich could be fired from space or from the orbit of a planet. What I was saying is you flat earthers need to be bombarded from orbit. And in the orbit of earth, and the earth is a sphere. Hmm... one thing shich I have noticed is that you have not used sphere at all... must imply something. Sad!

Spotted the retard.
A person who grew up with the internet AKA the biggest fucking library of the world will be smarter than someone who didn't (aka your parents)

>>38594244
They charted the stars, and besides you pleb, what is the logic in spending billions upon billions to decieve the public. Why wate that money? Answer, Cleetus.

>>38594266
*waste* oops, sorry. Anyways, why spend all that money to cover it up. It is a total waste, and illogical. Your theory makes no sense, also, if the earth were flat, then hoe come I can go through the northwestern passage by ship, or hop on to a transpolar flight?

Are you genuinely idiotic?

"50% heritable" implies that only half of it comes from parents, while the rest comes from enviroment etc. Retard.

Y'know, it's near impossible to disprove conspiracy theories like yours

>But there's a constant 24/7 live stream from the ISS!
>It's being faked by the government, open your eyes!

This video adequately describes what I'm talking about https://youtu.be/3kJp8as4fE4

And anyway, look at basic laws of physics and matter. The Earth SHOULD be a sphere - or almost a sphere - that's how matter behaves.

And don't make things more complicated than it has to be by saying 'this isn't the case because *this thing that has next to none (if any) proof, or is referenced in the bible* means that it's possible!' Ever heard of basic concepts like occams razor? Don't make things more complicated than they need to be, or the explanation becomes more unlikely.

And fucking respond to this, cunt - or we'll all know I'm right.
