I ask them questions about their beliefs and then express my beliefs in a nonconfrontational way. Instead of trying to make someone believe what I believe, I just talk about what I believe and why. Usually you can see the gears turning in their head. You won't change their mind, but they'll be more open to conversation later.

Why would you DISbelieve everything you can't prove yourself? If you are sceptical of scientific theories, why wouldn't you hold conspiracy theories up to equal scepticism?

I fucking love "debating" flat earth retards, although I can't really call it a debate because it's really just me running circles around them as they desperately try to spew talking point after talking point. It's hilarious watching them become violently angry, incoherent or just unresponsive when you undeniably debunk their main talking points and pressure them to respond to your debunks. Never fails to put a smile on my face.

Most of the things people deem obvious now took significant effort and experimentation to show 500 years ago.

The average person in this board has absolutely no idea how to take the first step to prove the earth is round in any serious way. Same goes for proving most other "obvious" scientific theories.

Because of this they are literally asking people to believe things out of an appeal to authority. You can't be mad at people for not following that.

Only "I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE" type of people get seriously "outraged" over shit like this. The average skeptical tinfoil hatter has a bigger scientific spirit than most of you. At least they indirectly admit when they can't prove something.

People who don't automatically believe scientific data actually know a thing or two about statistics. They actually have some level of understanding, as opposed to the Orwellian doublethink everyone else indulges in.

The very essence of this question is totally moronic. Believing data is completely ridiculous. Believe in a fact, a law, or a result, not my shoddy measurement of g=8.8 m/s2.

>Bacon is good/bad/causes cancer, along with every other food group. Alternate every 5 years.
>Race is real/social construct and has a huge/nonexistant effect on intelligence

Just look at the replication crisis in medicine. 'Scientific data' is essentially just nonsense. Even if things go perfectly, 5% of p=0.05 results are plainly wrong.

No one can reproduce a Co2 greenhouse affect at human levels of contribution though, so the claim that it causes measurable radiative forcing is not scientific. It’s political.
In every experiment with human levels of Co2 being used vs a control, the control stays the same temperature.

“scientist” is newspeak for “lobbyist.”
“Scientists say” on your favorite CNN re education program really means “lobbyists say.”
Because most scientists work AS LOBBYISTS for their mega corporation or it’s subsidiaries.
