Banned TED Talk: The Science Delusion - Rupert Sheldrake

RE: Banned TED Talk: The Science Delusion - Rupert Sheldrake
It's "banned" because of the massive conspiracy to suppress how right rupert is about the thing...and how wrong everyone else is about all the other things.  Further proof of it;s rightitude.  You know how people work.  Wink
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

It never ceases to astonish me. "banned" videos are frakkin' everywhere on "da toobs" despite their banning. How is that a banning? Maybe on planet sausage.

The scientific conspiracy is bad at what it does, I guess.

Oddly incompetent for a global conspiracy.

I think he just needs to have it out with Richard Dawkins... that's what my dad (a Christian) said... just stick 'em in a room together and lock the door Wink

They'd probably end up having the most intense hate-fucking session in history, which might make them both chill out a bit more.

But the conspiracy is truly epic in scale, thou. Scientists have got the entire observable universe in cahoots to deceive nonscientists about how the entire observable universe is suppose to work.

True, they've got their hands full..I guess things are bound to slip through the cracks here and there.

Religious belief is not falsifiable; that's what makes science and scientific inquiry different than the infinite number of religious beliefs.
