No one can change their minds, they have already been made up. he knows a bit of physics, but obviously not enough, i read one of his posts where he claims the sun is 32 miles in diameter and converts mass to energy perfectly and only has 1.5 million years left based on his assumed density of the sun. hes a grade a fucktard, as is tom bishop, read some of his posts, they are quite funny.
I can't genuinely discern whether these people are serious or not; some of them have pictures of themselves in suits or their uni gowns with a diploma of some sort in their hand (probably law ones, since lawers dont care so much about the truth, they just want to win their case).
The sadest part is, some of these bias people will become scientists:

Because college weeds out people like you.
That is interesting, because I am currently in my first year studying science (hoping to major in physics) at the University of Sydney. I got in with a UAI of 95.25, which means that in the final exams in high school I came out better than 95.25% of the state. My highest mark was in Mathematics; I got 99% in the exam. And you say college weeds out people like me? Good Lord, who do they let through? "
Thats Osama btw. Hes hoping to major in physics and yet thinks the world is flat and the sun and all other stars for that matter, don't rely on fusion, but rather some sort of magical matter to energy conversion which doesn't require lots of mass (and subsequent gravitational force) to create the pressure and temperature required for fusion to take place.
