NASA says humans could land on Mars in 25 years

That probably just means the corporation he plays for doesn’t want a guy who generates so much revenue for throwing a ball around to alienate some of their fan base and lose revenue by making himself look like a lunatic. When anonymous trolls do so it just provides a laugh. I’m sure there are plenty of people who might otherwise wear his jersey or shoes think “yea maybe not”.

So you agree he was controlled?

Yea why have his own opinion? Follow what everyone else says, sheep.

I don’t watch basketball, but any athlete who plays for a franchise is controlled, of course. They work for that company and depend on viewers and merchandise sales to make everyone and themselves money. There is a line between having an opinion and saying ridiculous things, and people with a public image to maintain have to be much more careful of course. He might say “I feel women shouldn’t have rights and gay people should be killed”, but it would be career over, unless he was a Muslim I suppose.

If you want to compare having an opinion backed up by evidence, with those statements that's on you.

Ignoring blatant evidence, for only a story from authority, some film and images. That seems ridiculous to me. It's a religion to you.

I mean no offense, but it's cult like.

You mean no offence by telling me I ignore blatant evidence that the earth is flat, and I’m cult like for going by what every scientist worth a damn for centuries has believed, and that they aren’t all coerced by some global conspiracy force.... I wasnt exactly about to be outraged No offence either, but if you aren’t trolling, I feel sorry for you.

I feel the same way for you. You're welcome to stay asleep.

You talk of scientists, but fail to realize that formal science is an artificial language, man made, has standards and norms, suits the purpose of the intended measurement, mathematics is an example, and maths proves nothing, theorems describing effects are not "Proofs" of reality or causation.

Natural science is observable, testable, repeatable and scalable.

But I won't say another thing on the matter.
