I liked Metallica's version a lot.

"¡Ándale! ¡Ándale! ¡Arriba! ¡Arriba! ¡Epe! ¡Epe! ¡Epe! Yeehaw!"

(Definitely not me in the morning)

Thank you, Louanne. I don't speak Spanish, and I always wondered what Speedy was saying.

I tried running this through Google Translate, and it said this meant "Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Yeehaw!"

...

I think Google Translate is lying. Any idea what Speedy is saying?

an Idea … a broad, abstract thought

a theory … a well-substantiated explanation

Where does the science of ‘multiverse’ land?

I think Arriba might mean "Hurry"

I would say it's both an idea and a hypothesis.

 

[Rigor Mortis]

One can have an idea without a hypothesis. That's fine.

Unfortunately, one can also have a hypothesis that evolves into theory and leads to action without a single idea to back it up.

Like a conspiracy theory?

Trying to find the right emoji but just imagine one wearing shades and an overcoat with its hand to mouth whispering:
Don't mention the "c" word.

But yeah, exactly...but not only.

 

[Louanne Learning]

But isn't an idea the beginning of all thought?

 

[Rigor Mortis]

But isn't an idea the beginning of all thought?

Absolutely. But not necessarily the precursor to action.

 

[Louanne Learning]

But not necessarily the precursor to action.

especially if you are not the agent of your change.

Having outed myself with the weiner, I'd better post.

Was Galileo the first science denier to be punished?
When he was under house arrest for saying the earth revolved around the sun.

 

[Louanne Learning]

Going to my sister's in Toronto today. I love going to her house and I am crazy about her family.

But wish us luck with the traffic!

 

[Louanne Learning]

the first science denier

I'm not sure, but there were certainly a lot burned at the stake for heresy before him.

One charge against Joan of Arc was that she wore men's clothes.

 

[Rigor Mortis]

Was Galileo a science denier? I thought he was just a heretic who loaned his clothing to Joan of Arc. 100 years too late, maybe, but that's heretics for ya.

 

[Louanne Learning]

Was Galileo a science denier?

Good catch! he was a church denier, not a science denier

 

[Rigor Mortis]

Years ago, in conversation with one of my sisters, I asked what she thought I should do to become unbaptised. She suggested committing an original sin. Harder than you might think.

 

[Louanne Learning]

an original sin.

yeah, they've all been done before, haven't they?

 

[CatrionaGrace]

Original sin is like writing: all the plots have been used, but the possibilities for twists and original expressions are endless.
