I think that they are referring to the somewhat adversarial attitude of the comments in this thread. I think that a religious person, especially a self identifying Christian, would feel a bit uncomfortable reading these comments.

Great article, but I'm surprised it didn't end with them saying they planned to follow up with the indigenous people and use their knowledge to help fill in the gaps...
Yet another example of western science thinking we have to reinvent the wheel - the person they interviewed said that all these "new" species were already known to the locals. Obviously we just needed to ask.
From the article:
"The researchers trained 14 sighted and 12 blind people for between two and three hours twice a week over 10 weeks. They started by teaching participants to produce mouth clicks, then trained them on three tasks. The first two involved judging the size or orientation of objects. The third involved navigating virtual mazes, which participants moved through with the help of simulated click-plus-echo sounds tied to their positions."
I wonder if the stars were brighter in the painting when it was new or if they come across more strongly in person or something... It would be an awful lot of effort to make such an accurate night sky and then not make it visible.
And if the comet is what the painting is celebrating, why not make that brighter too?
I think folks are reacting to allegations of sexual assault/rape (a few different women, including a minor).
Then there is the fact that his comeback tour is with Five Finger Death Punch, a band that glorifies police and demonizes mask wearers in their lyrics.
Reading about this is making me feel sick. It's so sad how many people's lives have been negatively affected because of this Masliah's dishonesty. I think people who fake research like this belong in jail.
Sadly I think low key dishonesty is even more prevalent than what this guy did - the way we dole out money encourages researchers in every field to cherry pick data so that they can keep getting funding.
One of my favorite tracks on one of my favorite albums!!! Great pick. This song really takes you on a journey.
Great recommendation!! That was awesome! That might be my new favorite rendition of take five :o
I like this pretty well, feels like it has the fullness of sound from Worlds that I was missing on Nurture
Bomb album, thanks for the recommendation. Other highlights for me were Feelin' Fine, Open Door, Florida Straits, and Three Gentlemen.
Spyro Gyro albums are consistently impressing me :D
Washington was a pretty bad president if you were Haudenosaunee (Six Nations Iroquois).
