Default Remark on a comment made

QED. Not right in the head.

Gerald Kelleher wrote in
:

The contributor who made the original comment that physical
descriptions go beyond normal language but can only be
understood mathematically exposes something that has lasted
centuries. The theorists convinced the wider world that they
exist in a higher plane of reasoning so they reach for analogies
familiar to people to support what is essentially voodoo and
bluffing. Newton did it with his bucket analogy but at least
behind it was the RA/Dec framework which still plagues physical
descriptions of the solar system in our era.

Most people won't give 10 minutes of their time to appreciate
how the motions of the Earth make their life possible even when
21st century imaging while the theorists and magnification
hobbyists really don't have an interest in astronomy other than
exploiting it for their own interests.

It points to a dysfunctional era where those who express phony
concern for our home planet won't even acknowledge basic facts.
The original hope of human space travel after the Apollo project
is currently lost to theorists who oppose humanity journeying
into space so they can chant voodoo from their university
cubicles. Such a strange and dismaying situation.
