Friend of mine put 2 of her kids through religious colleges that weren't accredited and it helped thier careers zero. As in 1 is still doing the same job he was in high school (soccer ref) and the other is now looking to get a voc degree to actually earn a living.

1of5 comments on Mar 26, 2019:

I didn't read the post your referencing, so forgive me if I cover something addressed there. To me the teachers were earning above their pay by showing their students that getting involved can shape policy and that their voice matters. We'd call that civics down here, which needs to be taught a lot more throughout the educational process. Comparing this to Nazi indoctonazation is pretty egregious IMO. Not sure how BC pays their teachers, but in the US it's a whole separate revenue stream from oil pipelines, and if it's also that way up there than your being less than honest about how to pay them and the economic benefits from said pipeline. Pipelines are also fairly hard on the environment, and can do an awful lot of damage if not designed and maintained properly. Also, if you want people to listen to you quit taking potshots just because you don't like what they said. As far as I can tell you've said a few stupid things yourself.

The Emptiness of Atomic Space.

1of5 comments on Mar 21, 2019:

The light doesn't "miss" the atom. It interacts with the field generated by the atom. While it's true that the actual matter of an atom is 99.99% space the field it generates makes it "solid". If your "theory" here were true we wouldn't even be able to see anything. The opacity of a substance has to do with how that substance absorbs than re-emits the absorbed photon. Transparent substances emit absorbed photons in roughly the same direction it was travelling and at nearly the same wavelength as they were absorbed, and many substances can only do this for specific frequencies of light (frequency = energy). And yes, the state the matter is in (solid, liquid, or gas) affects how the photon is both absorbed and re-emited. BTW, didn't finish you little soliquy after the first 15 or so errors, so forgive me if you actually did get around to addressing this.
