Can anybody actually refute anything she says as it relates to the inexistant evidence and the massive amount of missing links of evolution ?

no one gives a shit, honestly. don't post retarded crackpot videos
>>8248518
Yeah, that's my job.
>>8248503
Yes, any biology professor, anywhere. Or any of the massive amount of books written about the subject. Here is a good one

Is it possible for someone who is an idiot to become smart? I know that's probably a very broad question and I'm not sure if this is even the right board to discuss this.
I'm essentially the living embodiment of failure. I've been in several special ed classes and I've had consistently bad grades all my life until I dropped out of highschool.
I'm 23 now, and I'm wondering if I still have a chance to redeem myself if I start hitting the books.

quit 4chan and other shit for brains activity and get to work faggot
You have emotional issues that inhibit your cognition.
>>8248417
Trust me, I plan on doing that.
I've been reading books a lot more to. I know stuff like Game of thrones and 2001 aren't exactly the most intellectually fulfilling books but I feel it's a good start for someone who rarely reads except when he's on 4chan.
I always see questions asking who the greatest mathematician or physicist of the 20th century is
what about the greatest chemist of the 20th century, in your opinion?
Despite his whole mess with Vitamin C
I have to go with Linus Pauling
Shulgin and Hoffman did some work, but they did copy, one guy dyacetyled morphine, was my hero. Until that we just boiled opium poppy with vinegar acid. He did so much breaktrought I want my cock to be sucked or fucked or something,.
Woodward is the God of Organic Chemistry
but i have to go with Pauling as well
If it's 0° celsius today and next day is going to be two times colder, what temperature will be tomorrow?
-143 celsius
halfway to absolute zero kelvin from 0 celsius

might want to double-check your math there fampai
Why has there been no Moon landings with people in decades?
I'm not a conspiracy guy, just wondering why aren't we sending up there guys every year to make a base or something and do some ground research?
>inb4money
Let's say all nations stop funding military and start funding international space exploration. Wouldn't we then have enough money to already have a colony on Moon or Mars, despite the timeline and everything. Let's say there is just unlimited money and resources for it.
>Let's say all nations stop funding military and start funding international space exploration.
Let's say we all get together and make world piece and we hug and then poverty and overpopulation magically disappear? :^)
It's not that we don't have the money, but that no-one with the funds has the motivation.
>>8248048
wait for all the science figs to tell you that the laser reflector is proof we went there. as if we weren't intercepting russian radio transmissions bouncing off the moon 2 decades earlier. the moon itself is a reflective surface.
Somebody else is on the Moon
as a scientist?
>>8248017
Levels of what?
Revolutionizing the way people think at large?
Honestly he might have done that a little more effectively than einstein, but time will tell.
In intelligence or scienciness? No. Calculus and unified theories of everything are a little more impressive than finches.
Above Einstein below Newton tbhwu
>>8248017
Contribution-wise? Sure.
Intelligence-wise? Since he did not concern himself with physics, we can never know if he was at the level of Einstein or Newton. Therefore we can't answer that question.
what's the real percentaje of heredability of IQ in children?
>>8247877
There isn't one because IQ is nonsense.
>>8247897
in what sense?
>>8248325
In a sense that small IQ brainlets understandably get buttmad and reject the notion of IQ :^)
>>8247717
No, we should stop at 57.
We really can't comprehend numbers larger than this.
someone explain the 10^200 meme to me i really dont get it
>>8247737
Not enough sticks in the observable universe. Ooga booga.
It is a widely known fact that, if you give attention to your child who's doing it by behaving badly,
you should definitely not give attention for it! Ever!
it is like giving dog a treat every time you want it to stop.
How can we answer the observation that adults still raise children by giving them attention that way.
We can draw a few conclusion from this,
those adults are not aware of this and are just raising them like animals,
or they are aware of that, but want the children to continue badly in the future too,
or they are aware of it, but can't help their behaviour?
In either case, it really seems most people are so stubborn they can't even trust science, the only thing you can trust in this world.
>>8247690
Lol,
it is science, it is a scientific observation that children will begin to behave better if the adults don't give them attention for their bad behaviour.
And since that is science, you are more than welcome to prove that to be wrong.
>>8247675
If you never gives a child attention, does it die ? ...
Assume the system in which humans are living in, the universe, is only controlled by physical laws.
Physical laws are either deterministic (for example in de broglie-bohm theory) or they are probabilistic (for example Copenhagen interpretation).
Thoughts, ideas and choices are formed through processes in the brain. Those processes inturn are governed by physical laws.
From those assumptions we can synthetize that thoughts and choices are governed by deterministic or probabilistic laws.
If we then define free will as the capacity for an agent to make choices in which the outcome has not been determined by past events.
We can conclude that free will is not possible either in a deterministic or probabilistic universe.
What would then happen to such a system (for example human society on earth) in which a great fraction of those agents would recognize that they indeed have no free will?
>>8247580
>Assume the system in which humans are living in, the universe, is only controlled by physical laws.
???
>>8247580
Yes, you are right. But what's the point of arguing whether or not we have free will. Are you able to make your own thought? Then you are sufficiently "Free".
Why bother arguing whether there's some higher level of free will. It's like arguing is number even real??? I think there's a truer number that don't exist in this universe.
For instance, I am able to lift my hand when I want it to, I can conjure thoughts when I want to. Sure, I can't conjure the proper idea of infinity within my brain and some argue that proves we don't have absolute free will but what's the point?? It's like asking to boil water at 50C instead of 100C because why not? It's simply impossible in this universe and that's all that matters.
Maybe when we are able to travel to other universes with different physical laws the discussion is relevant, but as of now, our chimpanzee mind is simply not capable.
Go back to meditating the meaning of life in Amazon

>Why bother arguing whether there's some higher level of free will. It's like arguing is number even real??? I think there's a truer number that don't exist in this universe bla bla bla while jerking off of philosophy.
me again here, with the fixed sentence
"The wheel rolls without slipping. The centre of the wheel travels at a constant speed, Vo. Calculate the magnitude of the velocity vector at a point A on the rim of the wheel as shown."
frame of referance?

whatever makes it easiest to solve
>>8247576
That's dumb
0 with respect to A
So why exactly can't two or more things occupy the same space at the same time?
because there's only space for 1 thing

Can an anatomist debunk the claims made by evolutionists that we have "vestigial" traits present in and on our bodies?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4J3327IoWc
>>8247210
You have a fucking tail bone you dipshit.
>>8247212
You didn't notice the rhetoric used in the statement.
He's an anatomist, not an evolutionary biologist or a paleoanthropologist.
I have a vestigial nipple if that counts for anything.
What is the difference between nothing and something? is it possible to describe nothing? is what we label as something a property of nothing?
>>8247151
Nothing is a word.
>>8247155
That's retarded, how can nothing be a word? it's nothing.
Nothing doesn't exist, it's just a concept that humans created as word to explain the absence of something. Same happens with darkness. Darkness doesn't exist it's just a abstrac idea to explain the absence of light.
Does mass-energy equivalence seem really weird to anyone else or is it just me?
