Never did I say I believed that. I make my own truth because that's all you can do in this sick world we live in. I refuse to be a part of something or an idea just because that's what the general public thinks, aside of supposed "proof" of such theories. Until I see a youtube video of some anti-matter exploding and creating the universe...
This tool is king among idiots.
He "makes his own truth?" what the fuck does that even mean? He wants it confirmed by You Tube first? LOL
Something is either true or it is not--something cannot be scientifically true for one person and not true for another.

I don't see what's wrong with that. Perception is everything.
And you've obviously taken his Youtube comment too literally. He's just making a point about what we know as "truth", and how time and time again that "truth" has been disproved as new "evidence" emerges.

Perception belongs to the realm of subjectivism.
Observational consensus--the scientific method--belongs to the realm of objectivism.
so no, everything is not perception.

of course it can
example
two scientists observe same occurence happening, but each have different opinions to how that occurence happen.
both can prove (or at least theorize) and it makes valid sense from scientific method POV

so which scientist is right?
You're confused Yohan.
The yielded results they have come to they have agreed on--there is no opinion. However, each scientist can certainly hypothesis about how "x" came to be. But, it cannot, and does not negate the fact that "x" is true.

Whatever dude, there's no point talking to a person who obviously can't see the forest for the trees.

So you're saying that truth is absolute? Cause that sounds pretty stupid to me.

If you care to read my previous, more detailed post, you'd see that I'd be the last person to make such a silly claim.

No, I don't care to read your post. I just wanted to point out that you've misinterpreted stevechenko's posts.

That obviously can't be the case--because I have shown how his arguments are utterly wrong. And all you've said is "whatever dude."

Cool. You have to to be right all the time, and there's nothing wrong with that. I just don't like engaging in conversation with people like you.
