I spend a decent amount of time trying to improve my understanding of particle physics and quantum mechanics. The subject is difficult, but it’s important in our world today, and therefore I believe it’s worth some of my resources.
By contrast, the subject of climate science is a piece of cake. The reason that Venus has a higher surface temperature than Mercury, even though the former is farther from this sun, is that it has an atmosphere than traps in heat that would otherwise be reradiated back into space.
Here on Earth, rising concentrations of greenhouse gases, especially CO2, are causing our planet’s temperature to increase. Sure there are feedback loops that complicate all this to some degree, but the basic theory of anthropogenic global warming is something I could explain to an average 10-year-old.
Yet millions of people believe that our so-called “scientists” are driven by politics to create and defend theories that are not corroborated by actual evidence.
It just seem so unlikely to me that a few thousand people who have been studying Earth’s climate all their adult lives, and live at the very top of their field, are conspiring to fabricate lies.
If any of us had been asked before Trump’s arrival on the political scene how we would feel if the United States government descended into abject corruption, became the disgrace of the civilized world, and wanted our opinion on the incarceration of an American president, we would have dismissed it with a laugh.
Now that it has actually happened, we say that removing Trump from office and sending him to prison is the very best outcome possible.
That’s why 70% of Americans and close to 100% of others in the developed world will rejoice the moment that Trump is no longer a figure in world events.
Have you ever wondered why our bodies are in a particular shape, or why they have any shape at all, rather than resembling a bag of jelly?
I just the man met who, working in a research lab in Finland, discovered the “extracellular matrix,” a collection of proteins and carbohydrates to which all healthy cells must bind in order to stay alive, which provides the body’s structure.
This has relevance to cancer research, because those cells do not have to adhere to the matrix, which is why they move around inside the body, and ultimately metastasize, landing somewhere and divide rapidly.
I asked him if he is religious, i.e., if thought God created the extracellular matrix. He immediately replied no.
Here’s a short but extremely well-made video in which Steven Miller discusses the physical appearance of “violent, antifa demonstrators.”
