“To my knowledge” being one hell of a caveat there, guy

No skeptic, to my knowledge, ever made a major scientific discovery or advanced the welfare of others.

Deepak Chopra thinks “skeptic” is a vocation. Maybe I would too if I made my living as a professional credulous imbecile.

Yep. It’s like when Limbaugh called Going Rogue “one of the most substantive policy books I’ve read.”

The history of science is an anthology of militant doubters.

Chopra needs to have his aura adjusted.

Open your wallets people. Oops, did I say wallets? I meant minds.

Carl Sagan= total dumbass.

Soylent Green should be Deepak Chopra.

I just left this over there:

Mr. Chopra: how many major scientific discoveries have been made by mystic blowhards? What great conceit, what abject ignorance, to think you and your fairy tales are in any way like “Einstein, Gandhi, Newton, or Darwin.”

Well done, dmd76.

Skeptics know in advance — or think they know — what right thought is. Right thought is materialistic, statistical, data-driven, and always, always, conformist. Wrong thought is imaginative, provisional, often fantastic, and no respecter of fixed beliefs.

Shorter Deepak: I am too creative to be bound by the laws of consistency, logic, and physics!

Embrace my non-conformity or DIE!

Even shorter Deepak: IT’S MAAAAAGIC! Ooooooh!

Open your wallets people. Oops, did I say wallets? I meant minds.

I don’t care if you did just close the book on mocking Deepak Chopra, I’ma keep doin’ it anyway.

By the way, guys, I didn’t bother lifting more quotes because I didn’t want to dilute the platonically ideal stupidity of this one, but I hope everyone caught the part where he drew an antagonistic distinction between “skeptics” and “Einstein.”

Make one offhanded fucking remark about God playing dice and the spiritualists’ll never get off your jock. Good thing Einstein only responded to sneezes with “gesundheit” or we’d have people claiming he was a Christian Scientist.
