Same ol same ol. Touting theories as facts until they get information that gives them a new theory to claim is true. I just with they'd say * i dont know, this is the best we got*

That's exactly what they say. No scientist makes a claim of absolute truth.

That's what religion is here for.

BY STRUCTURE THEY MEAN GROUP OF STARS THAT ARE RELATIVELY CLOSE TOGETHER COMPARED TO OTHER STELLAR GROUPINGS, BROTHER! THE TITLE IS INTENTIONALLY SENSATIONAL AND MISLEADING, DUDE!

Not quite so, friend. Large quasar groups are real structures, with real internal coherence, the same way a storm, or even a galaxy is a structure:

Large quasar group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It's not really misleading. They can be mapped out, exhibit real patterns, and can be explained with equations, etc. They aren't simply random collections of things that happen to be in close proximity.

Well it hasnt been proven that lizards turn into birds but that doesnt stop you guys for calling people who dont believe it stupid. Clearly enough faith is put into the evidence to believe these things are 100 percent factual. I understand though. Sometimes people get carried away in heated discussions and say things they dont mean.

:stopitslime: evolution at this point and time is basically a fact. The evidence is overwhelming at this point and only delusional or stupid people would deny this scientific theory.

We don't have as much evidence for some claims about the universe. But we are learning more each day instead of relying on scripture written by people who didn't understand what causes lighting or that mental illnesses are not the result of demons.

still though that resultant gravity from all of them must be :wow:
exactly..shyt, time must be breaking down at that point with the sheer amount of gravity from all those stars and the supermassive black holes :wow:

and brehs please stop being trolled by mowgli again, hes just trying to derail the thread

But friend humble doesn't get you grants.

Which is the overral issue^. Humble may not get you grants/research funds or mindless internet followers spouting off your theories as if they were fact.... but it may open your mind to the truth and new discovery.

On our planet, you’re a dumbass for not believing an unproven theory that could be dispelled and replace before dinner this evening.

Then again this is the same planet misuses the word ‘structure’ to describe a collection of matter… and even if it was a structure- we assumed it’s non-existence based on the physical laws that we’ve forced onto the universe. ... this Quasar Group is still just a speck.

And not that religion should cross over into science… but most religious dogma disproved the cosmological principle long ago, not to mention provided warnings against blindly believing things know as ‘widely accepted’ assumptions.

I just saved a thread that wouldnt have made it past 2.5 pages tops. Applaud him. Threads like this while informative are boring and dont have enough substance after the initial post from the op. Just a bunch of

*wow, crazy*

*science wins again*

etc. Real boring drab posts. You people need someone to kickstart your thread, lawnmower.

Eh, i think its okay for some threads to be like that. Its ok and funny to troll some threads but it just seems unneceasary as hell in this situation and stifles any conversation we would have. Like i said, i wonder what the properties of time are like in an area that is so dense with immense gravity. shyt could be one big wormhole.
