Don't make me throw up my tequilla shot from yesterday.

Hahahah! Tetvatsrar?

Uhm... if you haven't noticed your country is going back about 200 yrs thanks to "science". How is that for advancement?

Going back 200 years in what respect? US is not in great shape for a lot of reasons, but too much science is not one of them. If anything it's due to a lack thereof. Besides, I don't know where this year estimate comes from anyway. You can't just state that like fact. "Why doesn't everybody know the US has regressed precisely 200 years?!" So again... Going back 200 years in what respect/way? Explain.

I'd like to see a quote where I said this. You again are hallucinating on those brownies. If liberal-atheist-scientists can swindle funding to make up crap then I think it's only fair that smaller snake oil producers get a piece of the pie.

See quote in above post... I accept written apologies only.

And purely for entertainment purposes and because I want to encourage the Fizzixist to return... Please tell me what liberal-atheist-scientists (so many "bad" words, oh my!) have made up with swindled funding.
Though, I can't say that I have very high hopes for this... You still didn't really explain how relativity is wrong (I'd like to see it "fixed" and with math that still works out).

So you want advancement, but you just don't want to spend neither time nor money. Makes perfect sense.

And the wonderful irony of that is that you are the one who said that "alternative treatments" like Reiki should get research funding.

They are wasting "time" and "money", both human inventions

"We would support the call for scientific research and evidence gathering on the efficacy of homeopathic medicines. This would help our patients and customers make informed choices about using homeopathic medicines."

Unfortunately, the WHO and company wouldn't bother researching any alternate medicines on whether or not they are effective since for the most part, they are a cheaper alternative and it wouldn't make sense (economically) to do this.

And don't let our Armenian recipe for "Naneh Limone" out to the public

What's limiting advancement is people saying stuff like "we don't know what came before the big bang, so God did it, end of story."

Scientists, on the other hand, are still working on a unified theory.

That's precisely what is limiting advancement.

Whether or not the article you pointed to a few posts ago has scientific merit, I don't know. The reality is that the physical theories we've developed (quantum field theory, general relativity, etc.), which include time, have borne the test of experiment. I'd say that's what really matters.

Time goes by the fastest when we're asleep. We spend roughly 1/3 of our time on Earth asleep.

Ty for sharing that factoid, but Snapple had already informed me of that.

Space is timeless. Time exists only in our world (we created it as a measure of the earth's rotation).

Well, space at any given instant of time is timeless There's the universe now... and now... and now. At each of those instants, the universe is timeless, but in order to progress from one configuration to the next, the universe must change its time coordinate.
