Were they taken at the same tide? Same time of year? Is there any other factor at play here?
...we should be as skeptical of that which supports our beliefs as we are of that which contradicts it.

Then what exactly are you implying?

Nothing, I explicitly said "we should be as skeptical of that which supports our beliefs as we are of that which contradicts it." I don't know how I could have made it more clear.

What does that have to do with pictures of a glacier obviously melting drastically in a short time?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It doesn't. It's almost like you are wilfully ignorant about thinking critically.

So you have no point at all? I've asked you multiple times what you're talking about and your only response is "nothing".

Are you mental?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You asked me what I was implying, I told you nothing, then pointed to my explicit point.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Your explicit point is to be skeptical that glaciers are melting? The fuck?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I can't tell if you are actually this clueless or just disingenuous.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Apparently I'm clueless, because everything you've said has no barring on the post we're in.
