I call it a waste of time but if Thomas likes to hear from these nut cases that is his prerogative.

It's not that I like it, it's that FB keeps finding new ways to put stuff in my timeline I have't asked for.
FYI, I'm only on FB to keep in contact with friends abroad or who are otherwise hard to reach.

Surely a solar mass provides the necessary energy to sustain a habitable planet. How much energy is generated during a Holy Mass?

An anti-vaxxer:
Welcome to the corrupt world. I think that one day many will see the truth. Although it will be to late by then. I thinhk you haven't even done 10 minutes of research. Don't you think it is weird that it's not people of faith, but rather highly educated people are against vaccination?
As you can see in one of my comments, there are doctors that don't want to take the responsibility should vaccination become mandatory. Therefore they are aware of the dangers of vaccinations.
Ever read the patient packet insert? Ever been offered to you? I haven't, just told that I need a shot and have it done.

But again, don't believe me. But it's strange that people do accept what one person says and not what someone else says.

When I pointed out that my Bachelor degree disproves his claim that I have never done even 10 minutes of research, he responds with more unsubstantiated conspiracy theories:
People who learn by assimilating what their teachers claims. Think they know a lot. But they can only reproduce what their teacher told them. They will never discuss studies that show that vaccinations are indeed dangerous. Because it will get them sacked if they did. So a bachelor is meaningless.

Vaccination has just become news again, because there's been a steady increase in victims in Europe with Italy having made vaccinations mandatory.
Now all the Dutch Dunning-Kruger experts are coming out of the woodworks with their conspiracy theories and unsupported accusations.
They also rely heavily on the 'there's so much evidence I can't share it all, so I won't actually present any' excuse.

Correct from a rigorous standpoint, yes, but of course I was using the term in its colloquial sense, which does indeed refer to aluminium foil. :)

I'm now curious to know what an actual sheet of foil made from tin instead of aluminium would actually look like, and whether it would have any properties allowing ready differentiation from the aluminium version. Mass I suspect would be something of a giveaway, though one would be less able, I suspect, to rely upon lustre.

I'm sensing a marketing niche here. Don't be fooled by common, useless, aluminum foil! Insist on genuine, 100% tin AlienFoil! Guaranteed to block even the strongest mind-control waves, or your money back!

Plus, after the collapse of civilization, you can combine it with ordinary copper wire and forge your own Bronze Broadsword!

Yet another theist who resorts to baseless straw-man attacks to avoid their own burden of proof:
belief in God is based on faith. belief in an eternal universe is also based on faith, belief that universes pop into existence is also based on faith. neither the eternal universe or the quantum fluctuation are "proven" to be true. you may believe evidence exists for them, but i don't believe it's enough evidence. You have to come up with better evidence then speculation.

Now the only difference is, I admit my belief is based on faith but naturalists don't. also you can keep asking for evidence that God exists, but almost nothing will ever be enough for you.
there's really nothing else to say at this point.
