In the confines of a London dinner party, comedian Tim Minchin argues with a hippy named Storm. While Storm herself may not be converted, audiences from Lond…

    Yes, identification is a major factor? for enticing us into a story.

    All of the comments that this is “sexist” are baffling to me. Storm is a pretty women. But in an interview, he has said this is based on a real? dinner party with a real women. At that dinner he, as a polite well mannered person, said nothing about this women and her silly ideas. After he did what he gets paid to do, and wrote a beat poem.

    Yes I agree, unfortunately it doesn’t stop studies influenced by these things being published as “Science”…..? Thats my point.

    I’m sure you? hear worse things about people in religious cults.

    Can you directly quote the verbal aggressions to? her looks? I cannot find them.

    But then it’s not “science”, it’s greed, pride, politics and? propaganda.

    Good point. I just went yesterday to a seminar that showed an interesting quote: Fiction is enticing? because it could be anyone — even you.

    F*uck? me. I just went and watched this YET AGAIN, because someone quoted a tiny bit of the rant somewhere. Another 10 minutes well spent.

    Yes? – Exactly that. And all of the other pumps they have added over the years haha. Such mechanical reductionist thinking has no place in modern science. It was clearly demonstrated as early as the 1940s-50s that that idea doesn’t work. I’m very pro science but the whole process is being tarnished. The science community needs an overhaul. Anyway, I’m not going to get further into this here, A debate on cell pump theory is not something i’m willing to discuss on youtube….Bye

    If you want to redefine? “magic” to mean anything of mystery, then the word “magic” has become a category including deceptions and unknowns. Which makes use of the word more confusing instead of less confusing.

    Easier just to keep “magic” to mean “deception (sometimes pleasing)” and leave unknowns as unknowns.

    Interestingly, Minchin already responded to your comment at 5:43.

    As a clarification, Minchin is anything but patronizing. He’s annoyed with the irrational, which? you seem to be declaring as your side of the argument.

    Fair enough.? That’s part of the process. What pump theory do you mean? The sodium-potassium pump?

    I agree, a process.

    “Badly done work can always be unmasked” I agree again, it can be unmasked, but? often at the cost of being pushed out and discredited. Money talks. My main point was there are many ideas that need to be revisited, some from decades even ideas established hundreds of years ago. They are “Accepted”. I will give one example – Cell pump theory taught in biology at universities – Repeatedly demonstrated to not actually stand up scientifically.

    “Every mystery ever solved turned out to be not magic”—wouldn’t you define “magic” as a mystery, so that this is by definition true? That would mean things CAN be magic, so long as we don’t know what they? are.

    Science is a process. It is not perfect, but if done well there’s consistency and replicability. Great minds lead good ones in science, that’s how it works. Not? all scientists are talented, just like there are good and not so good teachers, there are mediocre scientists. Mistakes are made, some honest, some less than honest. But the thing about science is that badly done work can always be unmasked. That’s part of the process.
