TO SERVE MAN

[substitute]

The Anthropic Principle is the most ridiculous thing I have seen produced by real grown-up scientists.

It's fascinating in a train-wreck way to watch geeks reinvent wheels. Clearly there wasn't any need to stay awake during Philosophy 10, much less do any reading on the subject later on when they got big ideas about the place of humanity in the universe.

Thanks for that, I'll be gentle, as I'm actually very easy to get along with when I feel like someone is being honest with me, rather than purely skeptical. I felt that you earned what you got as we went by crossing the line of honest skepticism in order to willfully deny evidence that many honest physicists and philosophers can see quite well.

There are two kinds of skeptics, but only one is honest with themselves.
