  Questioning the Big Bang Theory

  by Rod P in

  but halton arp's continuing research will forever change the direction of astronomy.

  or do our observations of nature show things that a theory says are impossible?

  gamow had argued that the stars' temperatures are too low to create elements heavier than helium.

  this is a question i've been puzzled by ever since my days in the borg.

  everywhere i looked i saw tradesmen, cleaner, auto-mechanics here and there some computer technician.

  and i do know there are two doctors, one gp and one specialist in the field of drug rehabilitation.. i've heard stories of some being true scholars though.

  "Science is not Bad, but there is Bad Science."

  by Rod P in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  don't get me wrong here.

  nor will i deny that there are men and women of science who do not work for money or fame or glory, but rather for "truth", and even for the good of the human race and this planet.. scientists are supposed to be unbiased in their research using the universally accepted "scientific method", being completely objective, and working in the sterile environment of the laboratory, removed from outside contamination and social influence.

  they themselves are supposed to approach a subject or investigation with patience and open-mindedness, without prejudice or pre-conceived notions.

  Disempowerment of women – WTBS use of “that woman Jezebel” analogy

  by cyborg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just wondering if anyone has had similar experience.

  i could swallow the fact that only men were given main parts at the meeting (i wouldnt want them anyway) but that im humiliated every time i tried to give opinion or make a suggestion, is just beyond me.

  in fact if i was even mildly persistent to make them see my point of view id be presented with that woman jezebel analogy.

  Don't talk to anybody

  there is no answer for your question.

  if you write to the society, you'll end probably like the swedish brother carl johnsson.

  he collected facts about the topic 587 or 607 and sent it to brooklyn.
