    Ohh, i realize it. Anytime I hear the term "Scientific fact" or "Scientifically proven." Neither of which will ever happen. Science can only provide repeatable results as evidence of truth.

    Religion is the only entity that can sell absolute truth due to the fact that they can change your faith to make what ever they want to be true.

    There is no truth without faith.

    I have no faith and know no truth.

    Anyone tells you different is selling you something.

    sorry, but truth is not arrived by rigors scientific study. The only thing that can offer absolute truth is religion. rigors scientific study only gives best guess with current information.

    Of course religions absolute truth requires a leap of faith in that truth, where rigors scientific study produces actually reproducible results.

    If he's always wrong then you better find a new job. The company will go out of business soon.

    Or do you just not understand how business actually works and instead just have some academic outlook on it and he does things right but different from your viewpoint.

    If you have all the answers why not go start your own business and run him out.

    Details may be different but in 2000-2008 that, and 1000s of similar things sound about par for the course. I remember first day un-elected president and riots during first trip to the Whitehouse or even harmless things like removing the W from all the keyboards.

    Wow did Steve Jobs molest your dog or something? Where does "I fanatically hate Apple" come from? I can understand "I'm not a fan of their products" but fanatical hate is something usually reserved for Nazis and kkk members.
