So he proceeds to go on about something called Electric Universe Theory (I had never heard of it until then) and how I shouldn't believe all the "bullshit they teach you in school".

I pretty much respond with pic related and he calls me close minded. I say no, I'm gonna need some citations on that shit you just spewed, because scientific consensus says the sun and other stars are made by nuclear fusion.

So we finally get home and he makes me look it up on my laptop. So I put it in Google.

First three sites are .info pages and the fourth or so is a Rational wiki entry

I call him out on his pseudoscientific shit and give him several refutation citations against his theory and he just gets mad, tells me I'm fucking stupid and doesn't talk to me the rest of the day.

My family is full of morons.
