Obviously everyone should bow down before him. More power to him. The guy pretty much got banned for being a bit harsh on people who deserved it, from what I understand. Really? When he was an administrator, the guy banned me from Wikipedia when I asked him not to editwar with another user over spelling. Others were treated in a similar fashion.

Fortunately for WMC, Wikipedia doesn't have a "Child of Privilege-big-ego, artificially affected misanthropic, jaded, high-falooting" activist rule, or he would have been sent on his way long ago. Here's the thing, I truly don't belive that WMC, Stephan Schulz, Kim Dabelstein Peterson, or Short Brigade Harvester Boris are really scientists, because I can't belive that true scientists would act as deceitfully, dishonestly, or as insecurely and cowardly as they act. If they are really scientists, I would like to know which universities they teach at to ensure that I don't send my kids to those bush league institutions. To be clear, I respect scientists who truly believe in man-made global warming but recognize that they might be wrong. The ones who don't are the ones who try to use Wikipedia to artificially socialize their positions.

You clearly haven't been in a seminar room-full of philosophers.

You clearly haven't been in a seminar room-full of philosophers. Actually, I have. The scientists and philosophers who are the most humble in their advocacy are the ones I hope my kids have the good fortune to encounter. You want me to name some names? The Japanese ones probably won't have en.wikipediai entries. This post has been edited by Cla68:

Wow. It's amazing that Wikipedia makes Randies in Boisie like Cla68 so confident in their abilities to determine who is and is not a true expert/academic/scientist/philosopher. It is the height of irony that such an arrogant prick as this thinks that humility is the hallmark of a good educator/researcher/writer. Wikipedia is bad precisely because it makes know-nothing idiots like Cla68 think that they're hot shit.
