@humanityrising9378 It's easy for most of us to fall into the trap of "confirmation bias feed back loop"....religions rely on it and feed the habit, but some of us are accustomed to checking our premises and others only feed their preconceived notions, often to the point of complete disconnect from reality. (Flat Earthers, Chemtrailers, 9/11 Truthers, Anti-vaccers, for example) There are serious consequences in real life to self deceptions sometimes, even small ones. First you are so clueless as to believe a jet engine can work in space, now ask yourself--what else OBVIOUS have you missed here?

@humanityrising9378 Amazing you think a jet engine can work in a vacuum....too be expected I guess given all the other bullshit you ingested without a critical thought.

@humanityrising9378 Now you do. What ELSE are you missing?

@humanityrising9378 I'm not say'n you are stupid for falling for such necessarily, even very smart folks do it sometimes, just learn to check your own beliefs instead of reinforcing them, it's a discipline that's essential in many walks of life...take investing in indvidual stocks for one--you better be able to cross check your thesis for owning an equity (or shorting) or your likely to lose your money. FIRST--don't get emotionally invested in any belief but instead learn to relish the potential for an epiphany which can only happen when one up-ends a strongly held belief which tends to be highly rewarding. Understand that the best learning happens by challenging yourself not by 'winning' an argument. It's not so bad to admit: "I might be wrong about that."

@mikeparker5008 Your "superior" sense of your own preconceived notions is delusional. Cyanide is pointless and redundant when all you need to do is depressurized and be done in seconds.

@mcfcguvnors Back up your ascertions? How do you know van allen belts are "lethal", over what time frame? What would thermite in paint do?...make it a little more flammable than it already is? Why do you even suppose there is such a thing? Why do you fall for everything that fits your preconceived notions even if it's laughable nonsense like 'same cloud formation every time'?
