[SteveDutchy]

wtf is sean doing here? didn't I see him in david deangelo's ''how to attract girls'' video?

[zaditenful]

that fact is not for attack science is just that you don't have to put all your faith in this experts, is about feed your soul

[dleiros]

The line "Sometimes you can't trust the experts" is one of the most hurtful things to society. People of faith and bullshit believes use these lines to attack science. As if the fact that experts are so many times wrong means that scientific knowledge is bogus and should be discredited with no logical reason ...I can't stand this type of talks...

[kmica2008]

@dleiros fuck off then, angry, little man.

[SASSJMSCBC]

@dleiros So it is better to trust blindly in humans. He is not using this lines to attack Science.Simply he is telling you to think by yourself(free thinking implies the posibility to difer even from expert).

[chuckwagon1645]

@SASSJMSCBC No he is in fact putting a doubt on science and the opinion of "experts". He is appealing to emotion. Playing off the heart strings. Nothing more. He uses the story of his survival as some kind of evidence that experts should be doubted. This is elementary logic. The experts most likely said it was unlikely that he would survive. He only survived BECAUSE OF THOSE EXPERTS. Not to mention the science they used. Makes you wonder what the chances would be if he'd been born 2000 yrs ago.

[SASSJMSCBC]

@chuckwagon1645 he said "times" in life (ie sometimes not always). He did not mention the word "science" in this sentence either. In case you forgot even experts make mistakes(for instance I heard taking a lot of "expert" how Chaves was supose to lose the power years ago and he still governs Venezuela)

[SASSJMSCBC]

@chuckwagon1645 And by the way I think he is refering to the experts who said that he would not survive not the expert who tried to save his life.

[chuckwagon1645]

@SASSJMSCBC Im willing to bet they are the same experts. It was his "doctors".

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

@SASSJMSCBC making shit up pretty much

[SASSJMSCBC]

@FIGHTFANNERD3 umm I almost forgot the charming of the people like you who have little tolerance to the people who differ in thinking. It is so nasty to deal with these people.

[gryzman]

Looks like their version of TED :)

[cyberdems]

@gryzman Certainly "Ideas worth spreading", so yeah! ;)

[dleiros]

@gryzman TED has sadly turned into %$#@

[postmarvi]

Sean is the man! :)
