You should be aware that -1*-1=+1 is EVIL educator math, as +1 and -1 are antipodes equating a zero existence. Please work this into your theory somehow. --AKjeldsenGodspeed! 22:21, 15 December 2007 (EST)

Please do not act like a ignorant retard and try to parody me. Thank You. Truthist 23:06, 15 December 2007 (EST)
Parody? Have you been brainwashed by evil and stupid singularity academics? Do you not see that +1 and -1 are polar opposites in 4-corner time with simultaneous 4-corner rotation? --AKjeldsenGodspeed! 06:49, 16 December 2007 (EST)

So, the problem that we (the Rationals) have, is that we blindly accept "Earth's authorities" on these matters? And that there is some secret government organization intentionally working to bias that information so that we believe what the government wants us to believe? Where did this hair-brain idea come from?

Arguably one of the greatest scientific minds in the earth's known history was Einstein. At the very least, he's very well known. Einstein did not learn by route memorization of facts, and reliance upon authority. His intelligence and learning were driven by skepticism, in that he didn't accept anything anyone said unless he considered it, and it was deemed appropriate to believe.

Call me what you will, but don't call me a blind follower of the "religion of science". You can ask my teachers how much fun I was to teach... That is exactly what rational means, it means that you only accept information after reasoning through its position. Facts and information are not accepted blindly by authority, but rather by questioning and challenging the authority; forcing the authority to consider different angles that she may not have considered before. If that "authority" wants you to believe in what he's presenting, then he need prove by reasoning that his proposition is possible, likely, or certain. The information is then taken with the appropriate amount of salt.

Oh, and actually, 1+1 = 0 --Eira yay! 07:44, 16 December 2007 (EST)
