What a dumbass.

Living things versus inanimate objects is self evident.

Cause and effect is self evident.

Sure. You cite yourself as the ultimate authority.

I cite reality. Feel free to dismiss cause and effect though.

It always amazes me how the pseudo-scientists and cranks in these forums, are always the first to get frustrated, angry that the more rational amongst us refuse to respect their unhinged beliefs. I've debated in many forums like this and found very few truly decent science advocates.

I've encountered very few competent educated scientists in these forums over the years, there are one or two here but that's about it. The competent, confident and secure scientists are usually rather quiet, don't try to show off, don't speak down to others.

The cranks though are downright rude, insecure and constantly striving to establish their importance, their unique insights and so on, it's never really about science but about them, their opinions, their superiority.

This goes to show that obtaining a degree in science far from guarantees intelligence.
