Phil's Bogus Journey: Trip to the Large Hadron Collider

Phil Plait takes a trip to the Large Hadron Collider, and makes another video that I have to expose for what it really is.

This time he is called out to Geneva by his faceless paymasters to make a propaganda video about the careless experiment at CERN that is endangering the entire planet.

This video is a fictional reenactment depicting the very real reckless attitude of scientists, and the inevitable consequences of playing God with the very fabric of the universe.



Disclaimer: This video is a good-natured joke at the expense of Phil Plait, and not a product of the Bad Astronomer. It is not endorsed by, or officially representative of Phil Plait's opinions or website.

And if you think this is in any way real, and not the joke it obviously is, you need your freakin' head examined.

Good to see my whack-job "gaydar" is functioning correctly. Thankyou for the confirmation.

[indianrailways]

finally you admitted. that's all i am also saying. divine source. rest all is foolishness. these scientists are working with a brain awarded by whom ? how can humans win over the boss who created them? the more they try in vain, the more they will be awarded with misery, tornadoes, floods, tsunamis, wild fires, earthquakes, milk contamination's, economy collapses, war, terrorism and blah blah. poor scientists. now they are fixing the big bong bong machine.

you are right. not only me but you and all animals, their gross bodies are made of 12 impurities - Oily exudations,Semen,Blood,Fatty substance of the brain,Urine,Faeces,Mucus of the nose,Ear-wax,Phlegm,Tears,Rheu­m of the eyes and Sweat. When humans carry with them always inside, they dont complain but when the same excreta comes out they say - yuck. hypocrites !

And you can't tell me I'm wrong either, because my knowledge comes from a divine source that can't be argued with.

I just KNOW in my heart and soul that it's true.

Okay, so I introspected, abandoned logic and objectivity, applied the neti neti doctrine, prayed to Buddha, released myself from the trappings of materialism, (like the computer you are currently using), and spent 3 weeks sitting half way up the face of K2 meditating in solitude to find myself.

After experiencing a deep connection with the infinite knowledge of the universe, and consulting the four pillars of wisdom I've come to the conclusion that you're full of shit.

before antibiotics, wheel, electricity, etc human civilizations existed and flourished more luxuriously than the modern day confused, diseased, suffering, depressed, fearful civilization. america has all the material comforts still has the largest number of diseased people. the mighty empire is crumbling under its own weight of false ego and pride. i will not be replying anymore since i don't believe in endless mental speculations and arguments, ending nowhere. God bless you. OM

4. and the spanish flu infected man dies when he doesn't get Anti Biotics.

[indianrailways]

a blind man never feels he is non existing. people with amputated legs or hands never feel,they are incomplete inside. even if one gets the best physician or scientist, humans can never escape from the 3 afflictions -

1. caused by his own body as various diseases

2. caused by other humans, mosquitoes, snakes etc

3. caused by nature as floods, fire, earthquakes,tornadoes and so on

i was a boy,youth,man, student,doctor,husband,father,­american etc. the I remains same.only name and form change.

So I understand that when one discovers one's "Self", there's no need for a doctor (you know, a scientist) when you break a leg or get some viral infection? Please send me the manual!

[indianrailways]

you are perfectly right sir. Self can be discovered only by applying the neti neti doctrine i.e. go on negating the outer coverings until you find the Self. Eureka! Even amidst all the material oppulances, you can remain untouched by material contamination's just like the lotus flower blooms amidst dirt still it remains the pure lotus untouched by dirt! No point in going to a cave and still the mind running after sex and intoxication's.
