Why does fluid intelligence not correlate with critical thinking and thinking outside the box? There are a lot of chinkoids and even white people who have a high fluid intelligence are very hardworking but they're complete bots. Why is this the case and what is the reason for why IQ isn't correlated to critical thinking and thinking for yourself?
🧵 Discussion: What field of Mathematics would you choose to master?

As well all know math is extremely broad, nevertheless as the saying goes "Jack of all trades, master of none" what fields would you choose to become very advanced in, and why?
As a side question what would you say are the fields that are there just to bait midwits into a fruitless rabbit hole?

It seems like the universe's expansion is not accelerating but an illusion caused by cosmic voids. Cold dark matter is incredibly elusive, maybe axioms, primitive black holes, or entropic, but it seems like it is an artifact of our models. How can we develop a new cosmos theory based on evidence when the evidence is so elusive to us?

🧵 The Big Bang theory is a huge WIN for all those who believe in Divine creation

The current scientific consensus is that the Universe had a beginning and it will have an end
most philosophers and early scientists (aristotle, avicenna, giordano bruno) believed that the universe is eternal. That it had no beginning and no end. That belief gave a mystical, esoteric quality to the universe, above the material decay and such. They also believed that the universe is sorta spherical or something, they believed in aether, and all kinds of mystical things passing of as secular. The Catholic church even went so far as to outlaw that belief 800 years ago.
Then Lamaitre (a priest and an astronomer) Proposed the Big Bang theory, squarely putting a birth date on the universe. Henceforth the scientific consensus switched to the Universe having a beginning, stripped of any mysticism or supranatural quality to it. It almost kinda degraded and humiliated the universe in way, putting it inside the category of material things, things that begin, decay and die
And as it stands, not only the universe has a beginning, it also will have an end. The current scientific consensus is heat death. The universe will go on for some trillion of years and then all the energy will equalize (entropy only increases)

A lot of people think deboonking flat eathers and creationsits (the rhetorical equivalent of playing basketball against mentally handicapped kindergarteners) magically makes them qualified enough to speak on behalf of The Science™ itself. Claiming anyone critical of the scientific community is in themselves "science deniers". How do we stop their slimy spread and make the discipline slightly less faggoty?

Hello everyone, I am new here.
I came to this channel looking for some help. I've been barely passing maths for three years, or sometimes I can't. I've been doing well in maths for three years now. It's a subject that I really like, but I'm bad at it. Last year I had to choose a course of study I didn't want because I was afraid of maths, as you read, afraid.
If anyone reading this has any videos, tips, tricks for learning maths, anything, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much everyone reading this, have a nice day.
