Is the faint glow unrelated to dark matter?
Is it wrong to think that a faint glow in the Milky Way is dark matter?
Why did geologists religiously stick to the premise that continents don't drift in spite of the extraordinary evidence of the coastlines of South America and Africa?
If your answer is "there was no mechanism" why did physics accept dark energy without a proposed mechanism?
Are you aware that Hindus abandoned the sacrifice because karma, or the law of cause and effect, was violated when promised results did not follow?
When Jain tirthankars changed the religion by adding new vows, was that like a paradigm shift?

So your answer to the problem of induction is "sorry, my mood affiliates against that"?
"This problem undermines the philosophical foundation of:
Science, which relies heavily on induction (experiments â' general laws).
Everyday reasoning, like expecting food to be edible tomorrow or gravity to keep working.
We all rely on induction in practice, but Hume showed we donâ(TM)t have a rational justification for trusting itâ"itâ(TM)s a habit of mind, not a logical necessity."
Did brute physical experience lead the epicyclists to conclude the earth did not move, the sun did? Did brute physical experience lead geologists to conclude continents don't drift? How mood affiliated is your interpretation of the sum total of brute physical experience?
What if brute physical experience can be relative (cf. Einstein) or inconsistent? Does your set of axioms become cherry-picked?
To generate consciousness do you have to abandon consistency and become a Trivialist?
What if particles are conscious?
Can math handle "this statement is a lie", or does it simply ban it?
Can an LLM handle contradictions?
Am I free to not care about the bitter opinions of a self-promoting egomaniac with terrible taste?
