Brian Keating is getting a bit cocky

[Open Mind]

This vid about the debunking of Eric Lerner's anti big bang idea's is a considerable spike in over confidence by Brian Keating. He's doing exactly what his buddy Eric Weinstein has been saying is what String theorists have been doing for the last 50 years.

(watch from beginning)

Would love it if one of us had a devoted youtube page to responses to this stuff. Brian needs to be challenged to reduce his cringy overconfidence.

Typical behavior of self-professed 'world's foremost' experts in any intellectually challenging field who will not risk a discussion for fear of triggering their cognitive dissonance because someone may have a better understanding of their chosen field of expertise and expose their inadequate understanding of the subject.

oh weird. Its gone.

Maybe he was embarrassed by the comments and took it down? Oh well. Take my word for it. It was so self indulgent and gratuitous.

Take my word for it. It was so self indulgent and gratuitous.

I have no doubt.

[Open Mind]

maybe that's a good sign? Growing group that rejects this attitude?

[Open Mind]

I see what happened. He posted a grotesque debunk vid. It was way too over the top, and now he's finally released the re-edit of this.

Still cheesy

If you can believe it, this one is more tame than that last one he pulled down.

Keating has the classic body language and vocal inflections conveying emotions of a jilted or jealous lover.

as a stark opposite experience, This has been my absolute favorite episode of the podcast "The DemystifySci Podcast" with guest Gareth Samuel.

Gareth in this podcast presented his sum total of his perspectives. I only ever see him diving into specific subject matter, but never see him synthesize all his idea's together into a full cosmological presentation.

He literally just became a less resentful and confrontational version of Wal. Can Gareth become our new leader? lol

I think Anastasia has more understanding of the diverse subjects than either of the two gentlemen.
