Pink Panther my post on Bayes was made with no prior knowledge of the man, his works or the relevance of his efforts to mankind. So i sincerely went looking so as to start to get myself an education.
If I am not mistaken Bayes was mentioned in the context of "New scientific techniques refine carbon dating techniques" and we all know that the science of dating has always and will always be controversial. ALWAYS. That was my main point.
BK Teachings also give rise to questions insofar as their ideas on 'ageing' and 'world history' is concerned, don't they?
The BKs would have us believe that scientists don't know what they are talking about on this topic because the world drama cycle is only 5000 years old. Or do I misunderstand how that idea fits into dinosaur's roaming the planet?
Maybe I do.
The other bits and pieces were simply 'personal' markers that i would use (if I had reason) to delve a bit further. In other words I used the mention of Bayes to start delving into history to see what we are told and who told it; to expose myself to as much as I could in a very short space of time to the context in which Bayes made his contribution to human knowledge.
We are all free to believe whatever we choose till the point in time when we believe something else.
