Erie Dawg Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Individual scientists make mistakes, of course, but that's the point in peer review. If someone publishes a paper, then you can bet there are 10 people trying to disprove it, especially something as big as the big bang. As for the OJ, that's basically the same thing - one scientist does a study that shows slightly higher risk of disease x, then other scientists corroborate or disprove. Enjoy your drink. I've just got up. your funny...So what you are telling me is that a peer reviewed publication is 100% true with no room for error? Or are you just arguing for the sake of arguing? Cysko put up a link on the problems with the BBT and this thread instantly had crickets chirping. Like I said its to big and vast to put that much certainty in.

Legacy Fan Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Interesting to note the similarities of those images, Vapor - one observed, one simulated. One side of the aisle convinced that both originated from one big bang. Other side of the aisle convinced that both originated from one big brain.

Like I said its to big and vast to put that much certainty in. No, a peer reviewed paper is not 100% flawless. It's saying that with all the technology and knowledge we have, we cannot disprove the paper. That's not to say that in the future it won't be disproved. The point about the big bang is that it is the model that best fits the evidence, and can best make predictions about the future. It's not likely to be thrown out completely unless there's some genuinely paradigm-altering discoveries made. Tweaked, of course, but not thrown out.

calfoxwc Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 There are scientists who were "blackkballed" out of influence because they didn't agree with mmgw. In fact, in '95, the UN report on mmgw? There were 5 scientists' opinions to the contrary in that report. They were deleted. Deleted by a cohort of Maurice Strong, a 30 year UN employee/associate/financier.... It's a long story. But mmgw was a UN farce that was the ticket to a one world currency, and spreading the globes' wealth to poor countries.... and to the pockets of people like Maurice Strong, Soros, and others. Look up the foreign company name "Hara"...or maybe it was "Harrah". Their CEO admits they could make about 500 billion on the acceptance of mmgw and their software that monitors carbon trading etc. And who is a major investor in that company? Guess. Don't know? Al Gore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Yes, yes, everything about climate change is a god damn conspiracy. Thousands upon thousands of scientists and scientific groups resoundingly agree with the current climate change model because they are all on the take from the govt. and liberals. Every study has fixed numbers. All the scientists lie. Gotcha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 The finding is direct proof of the theory of inflation, the idea that the universe expanded extremely quickly in the first fraction of a second after it was born. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/gravity-waves-cmb-b-mode-polarization/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaporTrail Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Yep, that's what I'm seeing - gravitational waves discovered! It's not a direct measurement of gravitational waves, just a by-product of them. Via RESONAANCES blog... One final remark: newspapers are spinning this story as the discovery of gravitational waves. Right, there is a connection: the primordial B-mode amplitude originates from fluctuations of the metric at the time when CMB photons decoupled from matter. So finding the B-mode can be viewed as another (after the Hulse-Taylor binaries) indirect confirmation of the existence of gravitational waves. But the discovery of the primordial B-mode in the CMB is much much bigger than that. They might get a Nobel prize for this, as it invalidates a bunch of theories and resolves three major holes in the Big Bang Theory - The Horizon Problem, The Flatness Problem, and The Magnetic Monopole Problem. This is a major step toward a unifying theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
