this is like playing chess with a pigeon. It will shit on the board and strut around like it has won...
My contention was there were few new theories (that were true) these days. This claim has been met with a lot of examples of INCREMENTAL discovery and a bunch of guys saying I am an idiot.
I have no time for such foolishness.

thanks for knocking over that strawman!
none of you guys are addressing my question lol.
we got to epigenetics... forgive me for thinking the discovery of DNA was more important!

never a jw, you need to look at what is happening on campuses all over the world. they are infested with SJW ideology (Marxism) which force lecturers to tip-toe around a bunch of crybabies who flies into a fit if they get a low grade.
Just the other day I read how a bunch of students disrupted a university class bc they felt it was racist to have lectures during the Puerto Rico disaster.
Seems reasonable to you?

i have been surprised recently to see so much support by ex-jws for the watchtower's refusal to fight and kill.

in my opinion it is a vice masquerading as a virtue.

of course war should always be a last resort but there are occasions that it has to be done.

hear, hear! The "War is peace" line is one of the things I don't like about Orwell. Sometimes waging war is the only way to ensure peace. For instance, we are now largely at war with the Muslim world, with thousands of Islamists spilling into Europe to cause havoc. War is the only way to ensure peace!

fact is universities these days are rampant with Marxist propaganda. no wonder we are only seeing incremental changes!

epigenetics is not proven to be all that important compared to natural selection or sexual selection...
I ask for recent scientific theories. everyone tells me I am an idiot and give me examples of incremental change. Triggered much?
What THEORY is driving AI?
Neural networks? Been around for 60 years.
See where I am going?

so which new theories have science come up within the past decades?
DNA is like 70 years ago... evolution 150... just seems to me that there are few new theories these days and more shiny tech... not really new ideas.
but perhaps you can illuminate me?

someone comes up with a new scientific idea and it is validated by the scientific method (see the first page).
That wasn't so hard now was it, honey?
So what theory has been discovered in the past 50 years comparable to Quantum Mechanics or Einsteins theory?

great example! planes look pretty much the same today as they did 50 years ago, only you have no room.
or take space X. people are flipping out because someone built a rocket which is crappier than the Appollo rocket which is 50 years old.
Or someone else found a way to put a bunch of laptop batteries in a normal car. quick! give him 100M of taxpayer money!
Those who disagree, tell me about the theory that has been discovered most recently?
