Assumptions

I know. And one star...is Sol.

A photon leaving Sol will arrive at a human eye in about 8 minutes.

His answer was correct.

I know his answer was correct. He thought he was being clever to avoid answering my real question.

Who told him that it takes at LEAST (see what I did there?) 8 minutes for a photon from A star to arrive at your eye?
 
The first thing that came to my mind was...THE SUN.

I think he thought you were trying to be clever...and he was just going to be a bit more clever.

I am sure he thought I was being clever. The point still stands. He is caught in a trap of his own making.

Certainly you can see that, even?

I must be missing something in your conversation with him, Lefty. I do not get along with him at all...and have him on IGNORE. I was just commenting on what I say YOU write.

I do not see how his answer put him into a trap.
 
Leftists are a cancer.
Absolutely correct. Leftism and pancreatic cancer effectively work the same way, just in different domains. In either case, if you don't kill the cancer, the cancer kills the host.

The odd thing about leftism and pancreatic cancer is that when put under a microscope, they appear identical.

The hydrogen in my body is roughly 13 billion years old, and dates to the recombination event shortly after the Big Bang.

I'm curious, why do you believe this? Do you believe this because you were told to believe it?

Leftists like to feel omniscient, I get it. They regurgitate what they are told to say under the expectation of appearing "thuper thmart.". I totally get it.

My question is why do leftists state with certainty things that obviously aren't known by anybody, much less by them? Have I raised the bar on intelligence to the point that leftists now feel that omniscience is required to merely get into the game?

Warmizombies claim Global Warming while not realizing that humanity is still not capable of measuring the Earth's temperature to any usable accuracy. Climate lemmings keep referring to the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and in the ocean as though they know those values exactly, with zero error. Warmizombies are forever claiming exact average temperatures for Venus. Leftists believe there is such a thing a "paleoclimatology" and totally buy into bogus charts pretending to graph temperatures of the unobserved, distant past.

I could go on all day.

Behind every claim of omniscience is a stupid person. Why are leftists so stupid?

.
 
I asked because apparently you KNOW that it takes at least 8 minutes for the lights from stars to reach your eyes.
I get that you hate the idea of leftists being called out for claiming omniscience, so in your desperation to act quickly, you shift semantics from "omniscience" to mere "knowledge" and/or "understanding."

You are going to have to do better than that.

Leftists know that they have nothing. In desperation, they claim omniscience in order to give their stupid claims an momentary feel of plausibility.

Let's take you, for example. You know that it is stupid and downright shitty to argue for/support the killing of a living human who has committed no crime and who has not expressed any desire to die. However, your slave-masters require you to actively support said killings in every way possible. To do so, and to delude yourself into finding it palatable, you claim omniscience and declare that children under a certain age have no consciousness. Of course, you are well aware that no one is going to believe you can gauge the consciousness, or lack thereof, of a living human still in the womb. Nonetheless, you see that as your ticket to EVADE the question in the first place, as irrelevant as it is to the question.

So why is being a shitty person so important that you would even claim omniscience instead of admitting that you aren't omniscient and ceasing to be a shitty person?

Now multiply that by all the leftists and you have the question that I am asking.

Do you have an answer? Speculation?
 
The photon may have started in Sol's center thousands of years ago, but once expelled from Sol...it takes about 8 minutes.
Frank, do you realize that the photon that is "expelled" as you put it, is created at that moment? The creation did not occur thousands of years earlier. Yes, many photons were created thousands of years earlier, but none were/are that photon that is "expelled" right now.
 
That WALL was taken down by our great Ronald Reagan over in Germany from the Ruskies in 1989.

The Berlin Wall came down in November of 1989, when Bush was President, not Reagan. It was an uncontrolled event, so the President of the USA did not do it. In fact, the Bush Administration was trying to block it from happening immediately, when it happened.
 
Being omniscient would be hell.
Leftists consider hell as being "recognized as the dumbass I am, not as the thuper thmart genius that I desperately wish I were." Also, a separate plane of hell for leftists is having to tolerate differing viewpoints. When someone such as myself comes to such a leftist-infested board, knowing so much more than the leftists on the site, sharing viewpoints that differ diametrically from those of the bent-over collective, the leftist cockroaches all scurry to their dimly-lit safe spaces.

Quite an accurate summary
 
Leftists are so stupid because they have no inner urge to make something of their pathetic lives. They choose to back a socialist ideology
that has been a complete failure over the entire history of mankind on this planet. With socialism there is no need or no need to progress
through life by becoming an entrepreneur, or to just have a vision of doing something/anything that will give them satisfaction, or set a goal
to contribute something worthwhile to society and to your family---that is, if you still have a family after aborting every single pregnancy that
they deem to be unworthy of life itself. There's even a radical lefty at this forum that has the moniker JoeCapitalist who is anything but a
capitalist. Lefties are consumed with wokeness, fear mongering every issue, violently protesting through the inner cities by damaging and
looting businesses etc. --all to get that much needed attention they never got from absentee parents. None of the lefties believe in our
constitution, and most of them are anti Christian to max. However, there is one place for them where they can avoid dealing with we
Capitalists, pro American Christians and Republicans, and that place is called HELL! I understand there's a drag queen story time down
there as well for all ages of radical leftists. They're also quite stupid because they rail against MAGA. Railing against anyone who wants to
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN tells the whole story behind these radical lefties. Any Lefty here willing or able to tell us just how great
America has been these past 2 years under this pathetic biden admininstration? But we all know that lefties downplay and attack all
of America's great institutions and attack our Founders and our constitution on a daily basis. You lefties suck the BIG ONE!

Well that was certainly a lot of ARF ARF ARF!

Here ole' boy- Flip you a fish!

It came down due to Reagan telling Gorbochev to tear down that wall. But yes, it was a year later when Bush was potus when gorby actually decided to tear it down.
Point being is that both Reagan and Trump have been our best modern day presidents in getting things done in a favorable way against our foreign enemies. Now we
have the hapless biden in there fomenting a WW3 by being laughed at and an easy target for our foreign enemies to take advantage of.

This comes down to their various religions, and where they each stem from, and the reasons for the stem. Every single one of these religions is fundamentalist in nature.
As we discussed earlier, each of these religions is irrational. They openly deny mathematics and theories of science to chant their scripture.

The Church of Global Warming stems directly from the Church of Green. So does the Church of the Ozone Hole.
The Church of Green, the Church of Covid all stem from the Church of Karl Marx. The Church of Covid and the Church of Perversion also stem directly from the Church of Karl Marx.

If you look again into his Manifesto, you will find all the seeds for all of these religions there.

To tear down society and to bring it into the auspices of total government rule, the family must be put down. The successful businessmen must be put down. Any competing religions must be put down. Anything that defines these institutions must be undefined. This is the inherent source of the babblespeak you see today that I call the Liberal language. Orwel warned about this too in his fables. So did Jesus Christ. The concept of total control of society and the tyranny it uses appears in modern literature from Star Wars to Tolkien's works. It is often portrayed as 'evil' and put down by a small band of 'rebels' fighting for good and justice. The tyranny described is often show how it came about, and the masses willing to succumb to it, believing their side is the 'good' side, bring 'order' out of 'chaos'. In this way, the tyrants justify their tyranny.

To do it, of course, they must break down all resistance. They must CAUSE chaos so they can replace it with their own tyranny.

The omniscience fallacy is the bread and butter of the elite. They MUST appear omniscient to justify 'saving society from chaos'.

Such evil never lasts, of course, and those that at first consider themselves part of that 'elite' do not realize the misery they are going to cause for themselves yet. Hence, the stupidity.
Mathematics, science, logic, philosophy, religions, capitalism, family, etc. cannot be allowed to get in their way. They MUST put all of these down so they can replace them with their God, the government.

It's always fun to read your posts when you try to talk science. Maybe some day you'll get brave enough to take a science class or two.
 
Are you omniscient?

The speed of light in a vacuum is based on combining two theories of science into a third. Science that you deny and discard.
The distance known to the nearest star is also based on theories of science. Science that you deny and discard.

IBDaMann is correct. According to these theories, which have not been falsified, it takes just over eight minutes for a photon to travel from a star to your eye.

No, the problem is YOU.

It is YOU that discards the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics.
It is YOU that discards the Stefan-Boltzmann law.
It is YOU that discards statistical mathematics.
It is YOU that makes shit up.
