See I'm no biologist, but the first things that comes to mind with this liberal policy is twofold. First, what about virus mutations ? Would this not allow for potential rapid mutations into something more deadly ? And second, what about potential after-effects of the virus ? If any are present, would not exposing the population to the virus cripple millions of people ?

Why do you think public education is shit ? Especially in placed like North America. Governments don't want smart well rounded people, but rather drones.

Can you tell me what the scientific community currently knows about quantum mechanics?

We live in a world where news about Kim Kardashian are printed to the general public but we're kept in the dark about scientific research. I'm an IQ 100 white trash but I still have a desire to know what's going on.
I've been watching Youtube documentaries about double slit experiments, fotons teleporting and quantum entanglement.
I get the feeling all this has been explained already since the phenomena are pretty old and common knowledge, but since I'm not a scientist I can't search the web for the proper terms because I don't know them.

For example, why does light appear to be particles in one situation and waves in another? Back in the day they used to have a few competing theories for this like the superposition theory where some kind of wave function collapses. No idea what that even means though.

Nale "Mike" Tyson is so calm and composed on the tv show but his debate clips on Youtube always show him shouting and ranting.
That kinda ruined my image of him as this relaxing mentor that guides me through the galaxy.

Sometimes people you wouldn't suspect are scientists.

Here's a bodybuilder who at first glance looks like a douchebag meathead, but he is also a PhD physicist. People like Rich Piana fascinate me. They have the best of both worlds.

How does it make you feel when IQ 180 guys believe in God?
These people exist, even today. Not to mention the great scientists of the past.

If you live inside a computer program and you spend a thousand years writing down all the rules of the game, does this mean you jump out from the compiler? No. You just know the rules of the game.
The truth about energy and existence lies beyond our bubble. It's like we're 3-dimensional beings grasping at straws, trying to understand a dimension that we're physically not capable of even imagining. We're so deluded by our "intelligence" that it starts to feel rational that the big bang came out of nowhere, that individual lives are just an illusion our brain creates, there's no meaning to anything, and so on. It's not rational at all. We've just run out of building blocks for our imagination.

The smallest thing we can imagine is a fragment of energy, since everything that exists is technically energy in its different forms. Sadly we don't know what the fuck energy even is. Our universe is basically a dimension that is comprised of nothing but energy that created itself and obeys certain rules. Nothing in nature is a "surprise" to nature, because nature is energy and it does what it has always done and will always do. This is proof that energy has been given some ground rules. I think it's very logical to think that God exists. Not as a bearded man sitting on a cloud, of course, and not even as "energy itself" as some smug idiots seem to think, but as something that can give rise to energy. It's funny how atheists always boast how it's idiotic to think that God created himself, but at the same time embrace the idea that the universe was nothing but condensed energy that apparently created itself.

The first step for the ant to surpass his anthood is to acknowledge the fact that there might be a universe beyond the nest, and even though it is indeed irrational thinking in the context of an ant, it's also the truth.

Atheists live under the illusion that heightened ability in logical thinking will automatically lead anyone to atheism.
Sure, in many cases it does.
But the American scientist who alledgely has an IQ of 200 believes in God. For him it's a rational worldview that deeper than people understand.

When your IQ is high enough, you understand that the big bang, evolution, quantum mechanics, the universe.. everything, is just an energy-driven manifestation with simple rules. It's like a dream that somebody else has dreamt up and we're trying to rationalize it, fearing that we're not in control.
Understanding how everything in the universe works scientifically and coming up with the theory of everything is not the end. If you live inside a computer program and you spend a thousand years writing down all the rules of the game, does this mean you jump out from the compiler? No. You just know the rules of the game and it gives you a certain amount of more freedom - or less.
