You know something....the winners write the history. I believe its smart to question everything

What about the radiation?

I googled it in two seconds

That makes it true?

https://www.google.com/amp/s/zidbits.com/2013/11/is-nagasaki-and-hiroshima-still-radioactive/amp/

Cuz Google?

When many sources converge on the same point yes

Ok your choice

Not because google says it, but because many different scientists agree on the same position

You will be disappointed one day when you find out many things may not be true

Until then, keep believing your Google

Lol

And if they’re not... I’ll just admit I’m wrong and move on! That’s how anyone should react when faced with contrary facts.

Consult the Oracle

Huh?

Lol

That's what NSA called Google

the oracle

Lol

What does that even mean?

Thatd funny stuff

Why does the NSA call things things

You dont know what the Oracle is?

Uhh... no...

Ok =)

What is it? Just Google? Lol

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle

An oracle is a person or agency considered to provide wise and insightful counsel or prophetic predictions or precognition of the future, inspired by the gods. As such it is a form of divination.

Oh, I know what *an* oracle is

You were saying *the* oracle

Lol

Listen. You believe your Google. Ill be questioning it. =)

I don’t blindly trust a website... I trust the scientists behind the articles

When Snowden leaked those NSA docs there was a training powerpoint on how to collect open source intelligence. It was titled "Consult the oracle" with instructs to search google

Show me where it says trust in the scientific method

Where does it say trust in the scientific method? Why are we even talking about the scientific method?

Why not trust yourself

Because I’m not a historian.

I don’t study history as a career.

You dont need to be

Others do.

So.

You are an auto believer?

They’re far more versed in the field than I, do we should take what they say about what they’ve studied with more vigilance

You seem like you are part of a religion

What’s an auto believer?

You.

What is it?

you said scientist. They allegedly use the scientific method to get their knowledge. You are relying on them by proxy because you trust them. Something a scientist SAYS isn't science. Trust has no place in science.

Someone who automatically believes something because the authority says so.

Well, I don’t agree with doing that, so...

You do.

You just said you do.

Carl Sagan said this

Except I don’t...

Yes. He also believes the Earth is a ball.

Why do you care what someone that wrong says?

His proof was two sticks

keep trusting scientists ol https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/10/what-massive-database-retracted-papers-reveals-about-science-publishing-s-death-penalty

This is hilarious lol

I’m not trying to be rude, but you guys aren’t trolls, right?

no

Just to confirm

Ok

May I ask if you went to college? Have any degrees?

No

Not a troll

And I guess could you be wrong?

Are you a troll?

What degree do you have?

Are you qualified to be here?

😂

Lol no, I am not a troll. I’m on my second year of Aerospace Engineering

I guess you haven't been following the epidemic of fraud in science and the reproducability crisis

You know... orbital mechanics and thermodynamics and stuff

Orbiting Earth etc

Aerospace engineers aren't qualified to talk about these subjects

Of course not

Which is why we should consult historians for history

Lol

As we do chemists for chemistry

You are a sheep

And mathematicians for math, etc

K so global warming is a hoax?

And of course, do our own research if things don’t add up.

Of course not

Global warming is very real

A chemist said it is

But that’s beside the point

No, the facts say it is

Thank you

Yw

You know all those are appeal to credentials fallacies right?

I guess they don't teach logic in your uni

Sure. It’s not the people that matter, it’s the facts they produce

This guy is fake.
