7 Times Lawrence Krauss Offended Crazy Ideas
June 27, 2017 by Andrew Hall
The name of this video is 7 Times Lawrence Krauss Offended Your Idiotic Beliefs. I understand why the people who run the YouTube channel called it that. You want a clicky name where viewers can feel good about themselves. Its like the comedian who tells jokes about How stupid those people are. Sure, youll get applause while giving out handjobs. But youre still giving out handjobs
Meh.
Enjoy the video!

Just the author, in a hasty attempt to justify choosing a less inflammatory title, cast shade on their own position.
Hoist by their own petard, as they say.
