Einstein was an idiot

Cometa

Let the truth be known: this man is an idiot.

Science is by no means based upon the intelligence of the scientist proposing the theory, it might mean that it is more widely read, but makes no difference to the acceptance of accurate theories. Einstein's theory stood up to the test – light was bent by the Sun's gravity, as predicted.

If planes were to fly in straight lines it would make the journey quite strange, how do you get to Australia from the UK in a straight line? Dig to the core and out the other side? He must be a flat-Earther.

I don't think that he quite understood that the 2-dimensional plane is a representation of (3 or 4)-dimensional space. I think that he is mixing the Bible's "truths" with those of science. He seems to think that space-time is nothing due to doctrine and so dismisses the science related to it simply because he doesn't understand, or doesn't was to. But hey, hanging it from nothing makes far more sense.

Does it really matter if Einstein was a Freemason? I don't even know if that's true.

If you get a chance, watch some of his other videos, they are good for a laugh.

In the one linked above he argues that the 2012 Olympic logo is in fact a Freemasonry symbol. He just finds the shapes that he wants to find amongst the mess of lines which have an inevitable symmetry due to the way he created his "3d version".

Oh my. It is abundantly clear he is paranoid, prone to conspiracy theories, insane, and most likely very dangerous. I hope he finds the help he needs.

He'd probably say that he found all the help he needs in Jesus.

Atheism 2.0

“Atheism 2.0” is a 20 minute TED presentation by Alain de Botton in which he proposes a new approach to evangelising atheism.

The Bizarre Bible

Atheists are often told by believers to read the Bible and it will all become clear. Trouble is, many of us have tried that and it doesn’t seem to have helped. Take these verses for example: This does not sound like a great night out to me. “But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master…
