Dick Bastardly posted:The dumb theories are highly unlikely (based on what, all of human experience and scientific analysis of the material world to date?) sure, but you can't disprove them. I think dismissing even the most absurd possibilities outright based on personal bias is unscientific. It's dumb to dismiss the invisible pink unicorn because in the past scientists didn't know everything

It's not even true that people thought the Earth was flat in the 1300s, belief in a flat earth is a uniquely modern phenomenon (it's a theological thing not a knowledge thing, fundamentalists lashing out against heliocentrism because it would mean the bible is wrong) and evidence of our understanding that the earth was a Sphere dates back at least as far as the 5th century BCE

There's a huge gulf between horseshit like the extreme point of an obviously made up thing and a real testable theory that would mean something if verified or falsified. You or someone was trying to argue their punk unicorn dimension aliens as a comment are as valid as any actual theory or hypothesis and it isn't. There are dumb questions and not every obtuse idea that can't be falsified by science is worth consideration.

Aliens aren't real and actually the people who are the biggest proponents of them are narcissistic abusers injecting psychedelics into their genitals for a new high. Evidence? Have you considered that we once thought the Earth was flat? Can you really say this could not also be true?

If we're entertainijg theories that aren't falsifiable I would like to suggest that obsessive UFOlogists are part of a psyop to distract people from their real world conditions by giving them a distant and unattainable goal. By creating a split in narratives there is further "othering" and in fighting such that nothing of effective use can be achieved. Aliens were a hoax created by the 1% to distract us. This is equally valid to theorise on. More so honestly, given the historical precedents.

I think that teacher must have been thinking of this: "I am Italian. Because I learned my maternal family had an anglo-saxon background, I said I was 'Engl-"ish"' the Post quoted Columbus as saying.

There are methods to approach the UFO phenomenon scientifically, but each time I bring them up people call me crazy and call security so what can you do. Basically, we need to shoot one down. A very maneuverable hypersonic interceptor missile could do the trick. Or a laser based system. Both are feasible with our current knowledge, but they do need to be developed. We also need a lot of them to cover a huge enough area. A tactical nuclear weapon could also be a solution, if detonated at the appropriate distance. It's not very complicated, but we do need to spend some money to develop these weapons. There is an old saying where I'm from: Aliens go from unresearched to researched by the way of green.

I think it'd be funny if we made contact with intelligent aliens and they were super advanced, but had their huge nuts out all the time. Like, just slapping them down on tables during state dinners.BigBadSteve posted:Next time ask the man's name. That's just sexist.
