Link... Scientists find a link between low intelligence and acceptance of 'pseudo-profound bulls***'Pincho says... To be fair that's relative to the test. To me scientists also spout 'pseudo-profound bulls***', and there is only one answer to the Universe, and it isn't the standard model. A lot of things that scientists think are complete aren't even physics at all. Words like 'Centrifugal force, surface tension, pull force, attractive force, bending of spacetime, time travel, Higgs Boson stickiness, mass attracting mass' are all bull***. Religion is also bull***. I am not even 100% perfect myself, but if I get 80% right I am 70% better than a theoretical physicist. So I am happy with where I think I am right. Not only that but I also treat my theory as a beginning, and not an end, and I treat everyone as equally stupid. Pincho Paxton

More here... Study Finds People Who Fall For Nonsense Inspirational Quotes Are Less IntelligentPincho says... Some of those quotes are quite creative, and I wonder if there is a point which the test loses out on creativity. Like this... You can creatively make that work... Good Health... the destruction of viruses. Entangled... involved in your good health. Symphony can be broken down into ensemble which is... Which is a Human body working together from parts connected to become a whole. Force Fields... The force of gravity, magnetism, electrons from which we are made. So creatively you translate that into... Friendly Bacteria are involved in working together in units using the physical forces around them to destroy viruses. Which isn't so bad, and in fact I like the poetic version anyway. So this is yet another case of 'The Emperor's New Clothes' Pincho Paxton
