I don’t know about you, but I enjoy occasionally looking at fox news for personal amusement. I searched for such a thread and failed to find one. We all find it depressing, but sometimes misinformation can be amusing for us sane people.
Also, reading this article made me do a double check, and there is sme really sloppy copy past work. To make their articles longer, or the writer forgot to delete part of his draft?
At the end they site the source of the article as Space.com. So I found the original article, and it does not have these inconstancies and instances of repetition.
I’m pretty sure that is, in fact, an hydrogen atom. But then, the Teabaggers dismiss chemistry along with all other science, so its not surprising they don’t know what it is.
Oh dear God, I had heard about that but actually hearing Sean Hannity’s conspiracy theory voice just about made my head explode.
I just don’t understand how people can take this shit seriously. My father is overall a very intelligent person, but he just absolutely believes everything Fox throws out there or “insinuates”. I just don’t get it.
But that’s the thing, he is. He’s a mathematical genius. Physics, chemistry, a profound knowledge of history… it’s truly quite bizarre. It’s just amazing to see someone with such a strong background in science and logic toss it all out the window because something appeals to his bias.
I have several co-workers, who’s intelligence and ability I respect and admire, like that as well. I don’t think I have to tell anyone that Utah is an incredibly conservative place. Conservative radio and Fox News bullshit is rarely challenged here and no one seems willing to think critically about conservative talking points.
Personally? I blame the religious culture. Growing up mormon as I did, it’s beaten into your head pretty heavily to believe, not question.
