That's a nice way to paraphrase "biology".

>> No.4311468

>>4311452
I am disagreeing with that "fact." You'd have to be completely mental to think that you know everything about a certain field by taking one entry level course.

>> No.4311473

>>4311468
Your reading comprehension also isn't very good. I did not claim to know everything about biology. I only made a statement on the people studying it.

>> No.4311482

>>4311473
So taking one Biology course entitles you to make blanket statements about all Biologists? That's called ignorance.

>> No.4311502

>>4311482
Why is it that you lack basic understanding of the English language?
Nowhere did I say I had taken a biology course.
Someone ITT mentioned mathematical models for biological processes and wrongly assigned them to biologists.
I corrected him by pointing out that these models were constructed by mathematicians.
You can look up the curriculum of biology in any abitrary university and see that the math a biologist learns does not enable him to understand these models.
Now please fuck off and go being retarded somewhere else.

>> No.4311515

If biology is less mathematically precise, shouldn't biology technically be harder than physics? It's harder to find a house whose address is described as "somewhere between road X and street Y" than it is to find a house whose address is described as "House Z on Street X, Q feet from the intersection to the east"

Without substantiating your ridiculous point (What are you even saying other than insulting me?) it is only you being a fool here.
