Many scientists don’t respect Christian’s.
I mean, seriously. Does anyone actually respect, for example, RFK jr? Like. anti science and very obviously stupid.
Why shouldn’t he be disrespected? That goes for any Christian who is antivax, etc.
Christian’s what
And this is why nobody respects you.
Unfortunately, respect isn’t earned in capitalist states. It is purchased.
Vought will build up a healthy crop of future university officials who kowtow to him in order to get their hands on grant money. And Vought will crow about how many new professors and accredited faculty agree with him. All while corporate media regurgitates junk pseudoscience to a gullible public behind the mask of “objective” research.
We’re in for decades of Jordan B Peterson tier academics swarming over the University landscape, eager to advance religious bullshit in exchange for a salary and commission.
Self-fulfilling prophecy.
Another cult member put into a position of power to force their agenda. Fucking pathetic parasites
Dismissing young earth creationism (which is just as absurd as flat earthism) is disrespect to these people. Part of the Christian grievance is they know that educated people don’t find their beliefs credible. This feels like a personal attack to them.
I’ve been accused of “hating Christians” because I wouldn’t say “you’re right, no one really knows.” To which I responded “love the sinner, hate the sin, we do actually know and reality is not some kind of social negotiation.” (that was NOT well received) I’ve also been very aggressively told “We don’t like smart people around here.”
“We don’t like smart people around here.”
Nice…reminds me of an old Bill Hicks joke. “Whatchu readin’ for?!”
“Not ‘what am I reading?’, but ‘what am I reading for’”?…
