"Parallel universes, unknown forms of matter, extra dimensions... These are not the stuff of cheap science fiction but very concrete physics theories that scientists are trying to confirm with the LHC and other experiments."


Yeah--well!! Some of us think they are trying to confirm their own excellence and their right to live off the fat of the land. Matter cannot be fully understood with instruments made of matter or by intelligences limited by subjectivity and capacity.

The paragraph quoted from your link is meaningless. They could just as easily be "trying" to create a Star Trek beam up machine. That would at least have some handy utilities.

@Ionus,
Like a well-turned phrase which stands in a metaphorical relation, as a tongue up the arse of the ego does to a tongue up one end of the tube with two ends, to eliciting approval from an anti-IDer.

That's a small amount. And it's enough too. ci. has paid it. And others. ros for example.

e,g.1 "Has I no mr Farnnernan yhat U are a espert gleogolister can U tell me why the erth isnt hollowed out in the middle if these vulcannsoes have bin spuing **** out for zilies of yeers. kepe it simpli cos I 'm yonly fyoreteen.

e.g. 2 "That's well said Set."

It's easy being popular with anti-IDers. You just grease the fuckers up.

@spendius,
spendi, I'll just leave at this; most of what you post are challenged, but mine are not. That "should" be a clue, but that's too spacial for you to understand.

SAometimes you just seem to try too hard. You could have had a witty line there but you fucked it up with "Too many words". Im sure you can do better. MAybe not.

@cicerone imposter,
Come on ci. What about control of the masses. That's what schools are for.

And the election result. What about that?

How many questions do you need to refuse to answer before you practice what you preached and bugger off?

@farmerman,
I just saw Io's reference to the "small amount" and it was the first thing that came into my head. I never said it was witty. And you are free to say what you like about it. With an unfettered choice of banalities chosen from your copious word store.

@spendius,
spendi, "Control of the masses" happen in every way shape and form. It's a combination of choice (or freedom, if you prefer), cultural upbringing, parental influence, schools, churches, government, environment, biology, and everything that makes up our known existence.

You can bottle that, and keep it in a safe place, because that is your answer.

Then why do you keep using the expression "control of the masses" as if it is some sort of disease inflicted upon us by religion? Now you have finally admitted that it is a good thing what system of getting it done do you think best?

Multiple universes, String theory...


All motivated by the certain knowledge of the odds against evolution and evoloserism in the one universe we actually know anything about.

That is, the idiots are trying to save bullshit with bigger and more grandiose bullshit. String theory is bullshit to the fiftieth or sixtieth power.

@gungasnake,
String theory could be BS, but it's an effort, an open mind. What do you bring to the table.

@eurocelticyankee,
Hopefully roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, 2 veg and gravy followed by jam roly-poly and runny custard.

There's no unobservable dimensions to that is there gunga?

@cicerone imposter,
Of course I've noticed. Your straw is damp ci.

I'm in favour of the masses being controlled, particularly in the rumpy-pumpy department, but I'm all ears for your new and improved methods of doing it.

@cicerone imposter,
Why have you assumed the masses dont want to be controlled ? Why do they vote in governments ?
