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.
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
This is hilarious lol
