... I tell by the pixels...
[–]dumnezero 2 points3 points4 points 12 hours ago
There are some websites that can do a quick check for that, but I can't remember any.
[–]DoctorBurger 7 points8 points9 points 11 hours ago
I think reddit.com does it?
[–]dumnezero 1 point2 points3 points 10 hours ago
I would feel slightly ashamed for not having success with my googling skills.
[–]InNomenHitch 3 points4 points5 points 7 hours ago
Totally fake.
[–]thedeven 3 points4 points5 points 5 hours ago
Original
[–]ZackBraff 2 points3 points4 points 4 hours ago
Actual original.
[–]fjarce 2 points3 points4 points 7 hours ago
That picture is great, does anyone have he context of what made NDT do that?
[–]Harddaysnight1990 2 points3 points4 points 5 hours ago
It's a fake. Photoshopped. How I wish it were real. Look near the top of the full comments thread to get the link to the original.
[–]Voxx101 0 points1 point2 points 5 hours ago
OP why the fuck do you care so much?
[–]shit_reddit_says 1 point2 points3 points 3 hours ago
Because it directly contributes to the suppression of scientific knowledge and fact.
[–]Voxx101 0 points1 point2 points 3 hours ago
Do you believe that absolutely no scientific knowledge should be suppressed? (Asking question somewhat unrelated to post)
[–]shit_reddit_says 1 point2 points3 points 2 hours ago
I can't think of any reason that scientific knowledge should be suppressed...
[–]Voxx101 0 points1 point2 points 2 hours ago
My dad is a metallurgist, he works in developing alloys that are used in tanks and military aircraft, do you think that this knowledge should be made public?
Do you think that the knowledge to create chemical and biological weapons should be made public?
That knowledge is already out there. Procurement of materials and equipment is an entirely different thing.
Incorrect, the formula for some weapon may be available, however the chobam (spelling probs wrong) tank armor is created is not available.
Not to mention you did not answer the question.
[–]shit_reddit_says 0 points1 point2 points 2 hours ago
Scientific knowledge = scientific method. If some asshole wants to experiment in his garage to come up with a Chobam alloy, by all means, let him. While the formula may be unavailable, the scientific knowledge to create it is freely available.
If he wants to come up with a nuke or bio/chem weapons, then don't, because that poses a risk to society at large.
I do not think scientific knowlegde should be suppressed, but that's entirely different than the mandatory release of all proprietary information, ever.
[–]Voxx101 0 points1 point2 points 1 hour ago
So let me get this straight choosing to believe in creationism is somehow suppressing the scientific method?
Your points seem very..... confused.....
[–]darix79 0 points1 point2 points 4 hours ago
no no its real. He was talking to pluto.
[–]Colawar -1 points0 points1 point 3 hours ago
And also stubborn atheists.

How dare you Shop the great Neil DeGrasse Tyson.. Blasphemy!
[–]complex_reduction 0 points1 point2 points 2 hours ago
This post is stupid and you should feel stupid.
[–]jpeger0101 -2 points-1 points0 points 13 hours ago
My feeling towards creationists who have a poor understanding of what science actually is. It's ok to believe in creationism, but not ok to believe that it has scientific backing.
[–]rockoman100 7 points8 points9 points 10 hours ago
Its ok to believe in creationism
"Creationism"
"ok"
Pick one
[–]jpeger0101 -10 points-9 points-8 points 10 hours ago
Give me one reason a person should be put in prison for believing in creationism.
[–]WaluiJ[S] 5 points6 points7 points 10 hours ago
I feel like my image should be retitled to "stubborn people." It's just as bad to be an intolerant/stubborn creationist as it is to be an intolerant/stubborn atheist.
[–]jpeger0101 -3 points-2 points-1 points 10 hours ago*
Agreed. We need to send these people to tolerance camps.
Edit:
Apparently south park references are missed in this thread.
[–]anthorax 2 points3 points4 points 7 hours ago
pro tip for obscure references, it helps to link to said reference.
[–]rockoman100 3 points4 points5 points 8 hours ago
Wow you really put a twist on that. Nobody ever fucking said that.
[–]jpeger0101 -4 points-3 points-2 points 8 hours ago
"ok" is definitively a legal sense. It is ok and legal for a person to be a creationist. They shouldn't be incarcerated due to their beliefs. To say that it is not ok to be a creationist, what lengths would you go to to deprive them of their right to believe in it? So long as they admit that it has no scientific backing, they are fine, there is no problem with them believing in an admitted fairy tale. The moment they claim that they have a legitimate theory and press it into schools is when they cross the line. This crosses the line between church and state, this makes us as a whole look like a gigantic group of morons, and it increases our already growing gap between our education standards and the world's.
Those who attempt to press it into schools should have an injunciton and cease and desist order filed against them, and if the continue to violate it, thrown in jail, fined, or both. Legal process is its due, but I won't fault anyone for a thought crime.
[–]rockoman100 2 points3 points4 points 8 hours ago
First sentence.
No it's not. I say its not ok because its not good. It hinders progress. No legal measures should be taken and it was never implied that way.
[–]jpeger0101 -1 points0 points1 point 8 hours ago
In what way does a creationist in the IT community who believes that the big bang was originally caused by a god hinder progress?
[–]rockoman100 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago
The big bang is not creationism, but it will probably prevent them from looking too deep if they are afraid of threatening their faith. Also, it may not hinder the IT community. But im not talking about the fucking IT community.
[–]jpeger0101 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago
Then you are lumping all creationists in the same pool. There are creationists who accept the big bang theory, along with all other theories associated with it, and call god the 'first cause' or some other nonsense. There are also 'Young Earth Creationists' who believe that this world is only 6000 years old. YECs do cause problems, but as long as they stay out of schools, they will eventually disappear (again, filing an injunction or a cease and desist order against them works wonders).
[–]rockoman100 0 points1 point2 points 3 hours ago
Oh, well young earth creationists are what I was referring to. I suppose regular creationists aren't that bad but can still be slightly problematic when they refuse to learn if they feel threatened by contradictions against their beliefs
[–]IameAuhSomme 0 points1 point2 points 7 hours ago
Freedom of Speech, Religion, and Due Process.
[–]jpeger0101 1 point2 points3 points 7 hours ago
Just so you know, I am actually against putting them in jail. See my other comments.
Oh, ok. Don't scare me like that, man.
[–]Raunch_the_Locket -2 points-1 points0 points 8 hours ago
Whoa, we got a badass over here... lol
[–]CommentsOnFridays 3 points4 points5 points 6 hours ago
No

Sums up my feelings towards stubborn and obnoxious atheists
[–]MaliceRhino 9 points10 points11 points 11 hours ago
/r/atheism is a strange place for you to be hanging out then, isn't it?
[–]ZeDocktor 3 points4 points5 points 11 hours ago
He doesn't mean all Atheists. Just the unreasonable ones. I'm Atheist, truly, but it annoys me when there's an Atheist giving a well meaning Christian hell for believing in what he believes in.
[–]godstalker 3 points4 points5 points 8 hours ago
Define well meaning.
[–]WakaFlockaShane -4 points-3 points-2 points 10 hours ago
hahahha that it is
[–]LobstercockHatesFags 1 point2 points3 points 11 hours ago
I'm so sorry, I'll take all their responsability on my shoulders.
Oh sh-

Childish subreddit is childish.
[–]Never_cites_sources 3 points4 points5 points 5 hours ago
What's more childish, giving someone the finger, or getting insulted by a finger sticking up and stereotyping an entire group of people?
[–]AThievingStableBoy 1 point2 points3 points 4 hours ago
Wait. Who is being stereotyped here?
all it takes is a username and password

is it really that easy? only one way to find out...
