Comment on She strongly disagrees
zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 5 days agoI still feel like you have a fundamental misunderstanding of science, and that you’re trying to conflate the gap-filling that religious people do with the evidence gathering that science does. Which is a wholly disingenuous thing to do.

Mate, religious people didn’t fill the museums with dinosaurs without feathers. Scientists gather evidence… then fill the gaps. Flat earth, earth is the center, quantum theory, quasi-crystals, the list goes on and on, if anything is disingenuous it’s saying that scientists DON’T fill the gaps for the things we don’t know. THAT’S ALL WE’VE EVER DONE. Religious or not, no evidence, some evidence, or “a lot” relative to our tiny corner of space, humanity, historically, fills the gaps so we can pretend to understand things we’ve only just recently become capable of even observing

Right, religious people fill their museums with justifications for dinosaurs being on the ark with all the other animals, and pseudoscientific “proof” of a 6000 year old earth that directly contradicts any real scientific evidence.
Also the irony of you saying that “religious people don’t fill museums with featherless dinos” and then immediately following it up with
is insane lol. Like are you even approaching this conversation seriously at this point? I feel like you’re still missing my point, even though I’ve explained it multiple times now. What else can I do to explain it to you in a way you’ll understand?
