And in the day of Galileo, they were convinced that Earth was the center of the universe. That was settled science then. <br /><br />Today we understand that so long as we pay more tax, the likes of Barack, Al Gore and even Rev. Al Sharpton will protect us from global warming/cooling, which is settled science. <br /><br />Today if you listen to Democrats who revel in the blood of the unborn, killing your child in utero is one of the coolest things you can do, and they'll sell the body of your dead baby to "research/science" so that they can afford executive jets, sports cars and yachts. It's considered to be very progressive. Ultra modern. Sort of like fat lesbians (wearing comfortable shoes) doing an interpretive liturgical dance.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-68291613149796402132018-08-18T06:41:46.109-07:002018-08-18T06:41:46.109-07:00Thanks, Nightwind, I'll check it out.

And now it's "settled science."<br /><br />Regardless, it seems strange that H. Sap should've existed for several hundred thousand years and not have risen above flint chipping and bark eating, ok, with the odd steak, until 7000 BC.<br /><br />Perhaps as time and archeology go by more pieces will emerge and fall into place.<br /><br />Good James quotes.<br />LSPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08120630078039958644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-90762733944442892192018-08-18T06:03:57.865-07:002018-08-18T06:03:57.865-07:00You might be interested in a book titled 'Ragn...You might be interested in a book titled 'Ragnarok' by Ignatius Donnelly. It was published in 1883 and is still in print. He argued that an ancient comet caused the Ice Age and that prehistoric man was the remnant of a more advanced civilization. It's a very well-researched thesis based in both geology and anthropology.

According to James's pragmatism, the value of an idea is dependent upon its usefulness in the practical world rather than its absolute truth. He wrote, "Act as if what you do makes a difference."<br /><br />He also wrote that, "A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices." This seems to be the case when we cast back into time for clues and find them - but the puzzle is incomplete. Half of the pieces are missing. And there are the people who wish to promote the idea that man descended from ape, and are willing to manufacture pieces to a puzzle and try and force them to snap into place. But they don't do it easily because more pieces to the puzzle are found and those visions manufactured by ambitious scientists no longer fit.<br /><br />There are other theories such as the Aquatic Ape Theory (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_ape_hypothesis) where scientists worked to posit their theories as facts, and that's always problematic.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.com
