What's the most unscientific thing you believe to be true?
What's the most unscientific thing you believe to be true?
OP sucking dicks daily
Things based of branches of philosophy.
Also that Misato is best girl.
Supernatural stuff.
Fungi are ancient aliens and true masters of the Earth. They are capable of mind-reading and weak mind-control and have been using this for millennia to manipulate the course of human race development for own profit and well-being.
I'm totally serious on this.
I love my wife
That reality is everything ever
Fungi are one of the most important things in the ecosystem. You lost me with mind control though
the Earth is flat
Ever seen a ship disappear into the horizon?
Mathematics is a discovery and not an invention
Is there any meaningful difference?
psychology
It's all the difference in the world
Hell is real
4u
strings theory
Evolution
anthropomorphic climate change
Incorrect. Plant/algae doing photosynthesis in oceans is the most important thing.

So why don't mods just give bans to these comedians?
I'll contribute:
>That there are many universes besides our own, and they each work differently than our own, so the "natural laws" we find in our universe are just subjective to us and there's nothing essential or fundamental in them
>That humans must have some amount of free will, otherwise life just feels so strange
I'm halfway convinced aliens are about, but they aren't really doing anything and don't much matter. The idea that their apparent technology is possible at all gives me hope for the future, however.
love is important
universal human rights are valuable
freedom is overrated
infinitesimals
Cordyceps fungus.

Psych gets a bad wrap. All of medicine is laced with unscience that justworks(tm).

The second statement is true because life actually feels really strange so freewill doesn't exist.
I don't personally believe it, but lots of people believe in a algebraic field called "Reals", which are clearly unscientific.
wildberger pls go
meme magic
its some collective quantum physics manipulation of reality itself
say many ppl meme for something it fuking happens
Hello papa wild, when are you going to disprove the Riemann hypothesis for us? i'm waiting for that delicious proof.
Easy m8, once you get rid of R and C and numbers over 10^300 the proof is trivial
cute
All of science is based on philosophical inquiry.
Do you believe the bibels forbidden fruit was a fly agaric?
Memories can get passed on through gene expression and this manifests itself on a mass scale in a form of collective unconsciousness.
Rei is definitely best girl.

All NGE girls a shit
Extracorporeal entities
I know it's bullshit, but I believe it
Rei looks like a sock

Check out behavioural modification in a number of micro-organisms. Even some schizophrenia has been suggested to have a viral origin.
consciousness
We live in a field of subtle energy which gives life to everything.
I don't need a herpes test.
Neat
>believe to be true
Believing anything to be true
is as unscientific AF, retard
Probably the power of the mind (as in willing things to happen)
Plato's forms.
Jet fuel can't melt steel beams.
...
math
You're able to increase your intelligence. Maybe through some method involving making yourself more curious and spending more time each day studying to satiate that curiosity or something. Not sure.
AI will never happen using currently available types of semiconductor.
Sentience isn't a function of complexity.
Any proofs?

Just wondered if there were because the topic is interesting.
Holocaust didn't happen but I wish it happened again.
When Donald Trump was elected, I gave my life up to the glory of meme magic.
Some form of reincarnation.

RNA self replication
Meme magic is totally a real thing and Kek actually exists
I believe in an objective truth. Silly right?
Science is kinda pointless if there is no objective truth
Tulpas.
Underrated
Silly right?
Uh no, it just needs to be valid to humans, doesn't have to be "really" valid.
I have a chance.
There is no objective truth. Proof: measure the length of your table exactly.
tl;dr everything in science is approximation
There is an objective truth. You simply cannot measure it. All your imperfect measurements are part of it.
Whatever helps you sleep at night
The "Great Filter" is economics. It never is cost-effective enough to scrounge up enough money and labor to build an interstellar space ship, and then resources decline and your species deindustrializes or goes extinct. The universe is littered with the tombs of penny-pinching species that fell victim to the tyranny of small decisions.
If we cannot measure it, can we imply it from our faulty measurements? I would suggest not. Which only leaves perceiving it, which does not meet the criteria of science. Therefore, as scientists we can not say with certainty that objective truth exists.
"Philosophise with him, Bill."
This
I care.
UFOs are alien craft and they abduct people for reproductive medical experiments.
The objective truth is not implied by measurement but deduced from logic.
Scientists don't assert objectivity, philosophers do.
Empiricism
Or maybe that other minds exist. One of the two.
This is the holy pinnacle of mental retardation and bigotry.
>Oh wait my arbitrary HLL concept thinking recognises this a little bit
>It is absolute truth and not my high form interpretation
You're everything that's wrong with science, good job. This is exactly why people thought we were the center of the universe. Our fucking ego.
I have absolutely no idea what you're projecting right now but it has nothing to do with my post
Cthulhu exists
Astrology is ultimate binding force of the universe.
Science does not accept perception as reliable, yet is itself founded on intellectual premises which ultimately all find their source in human perception. Philosophy can never be objective. Some philosophers will disagree.
"All we are is dust in the wind, dude."
That with enough time and effort, you can achieve most things.
Yes, very sad
That autism is actually beneficial to the human race.
Some types of pseudoscience and supernatural stuff.

>Principle of locality is absolute shit and we will find the key to teletransportation
>We overestimate the effect of our decisions in what happen us in life, the complexity of events in universe its overwhelmingly high for our simple minds to understand so we end up just being in a random walk. We could take random decisions and end up even better than with "rational planning"
Every single event and process in our universe can be accurately modelled mathematically
I honestly believe ESP is real and some people have it
Memetics
Everything is a discovery and not an invention
Contrast is necessary for our reality to exist. Everything can be broken down into two extremes. Thing vs nothing. Life vs non-life. Existence vs non-existence. Yin and Yang. Black and white. Positive and negative. Up and down. 0 and 1. It's all the same shit.
