While it's a nice pejorative and definitely earned as an insult in many cases, Trump supporters are not technically cultists, at least in my mind. A cult requires not only an information silo, but isolation and dependency on the leader. I've theorized that cults could exist outside of a compound-lik...

My apologies Doctor Scratch, I wasn't very clear. I was rushed as I was to meet a friend for dinner. Funny enough, and I'm not making this up, he's been on his way out of the Church, and has had run ins with online Mopologetics that left a very bad impression on him.

If I understand the thread you linked to, you asked the DS how he would respond to Michelson-Morley; which is pretty epic on your part. I mean, talk about exceeding expectations. The universe is pressurized by the aether. The aether travels with respect to high pressure areas and low pressure areas,...
