Clearly, CLEARLY you don't understand the question. You truly have a simple mind don't you.

Rob, I have a degree in Biology. Do you think I am an expert in Biology?

Imho, this leads to 2 potential trains of thoughts. The first being that it was rhetorical question and you were indeed implying that your degree made your belief that there are no nerves in bones just as legitimate as the experts in the field. Given the nature of the rest of the exchange it does seem that you were claiming expertise in the field.

The other possibility is you wanted discuss what separated you from the experts being cited. I don't know where you work or what you do for living. The "experts" cited tended to have doctorates and/or working at medical research universities. I'm not sure if you still work in the industry. I seem to remember you mentioning your degree wasn't in human biology, so those would be some major differences. Ironically, since you're the one with a degree in the field, you're probably the most qualified person on the board to answer the question you posed.

It seems unlikely that you were genuinely asking what separated you from the experts in the industry. If the question was indeed genuine, that implies you would accept their "belief" about nerves in bones based on their "greater expertise."

So I was wrong. They have documented proof the FBI had paid plants in the protest. They have actual payment records.

The FBI Paid a Violent Felon to Infiltrate Denver’s Racial Justice Movement

Mickey Windecker encouraged violence, accused activist leaders of being police cooperators, and tried to draw demonstrators into elaborate stings.

Technically you didn't claim to be an expert. You just implied that your degree made your "opinion" as valid as the "opinions" of the experts in the field, ie the doctorate professors and MDs who incorrectly believe there are nerves in bones and write research papers about nerves in bones.

It should be noted most these doctorate professors & MDs work at universities and therefore are probably liberals, which increases their probability of being incorrect on any matter significantly.

I wasn't even taking it that far. I simply wanted to know why he would value another persons opinion over mine if we both had the same knowledge and degree. Why would he pick the other person. That all I wanted to know. Nothing more, nothing less.

No. Your claimed biology degree with extensive study of anatomy does not make you as much an expert in virology and immunology as Fauci and all the people involved in creating the COVID vaccines.
(Since you probably don’t recall, you asked the “question” in conversation about the vax creation and efficacy).

In fact, some things you have said actually prove you may be LESS of an expert in a field you claimed to study extensively: anatomy.
Your false belief that bones do not have nerves in them is demonstrative of a lack of expertise.

Also, the fact that you would even have to ASK if simply having the degree makes you an expert is indicative that you are, to put it simply, blissfully unaware of basic realities.

I have a degree in Business with a Finance concentration. I do not think this makes me as much of an expert as Warren Buffet.
I have a drivers license and have driven race cars on the street and on a track. I do not think I am as much an expert as Lewis Hamilton.
Basic realities.

Good for you. Keep dodging the original question with smoke and mirrors, misdirection and illusions.

I was contracted by the U.S. Government for my knowledge of biology and worked on three different military bases. My knowledge was enough for them so honestly Rob's opinions are irrelevant. I am not currently using my biology degree for employment.

As for the nerves "in" bones discussion. The term Rob and yourself are using for the word "in" is clearly not the term I am using. We are not arguing the same thing. When it has been explained to the both of you the responses are laced with smart assed comments.

I get it, you object to the use of the word "in." But that's the word the experts consistently use. They are not using "in" in some oddball industry only way, they're using in a way consistent with normal usage.

True story, my neighbor had a pipe burst in her wall on Xmas and called me over for assistance. Clearly it was right there in the wall. The main shut off was also in the wall. To fix the pipe the plumber cut into the wall and replaced the section of pipe in the wall. You might feel that's a smart *** comment, but it's really just the standard usage of the word "in".

In but not part of. The pipe is a separate thing as is a nerve passing through a cavity in the bone.

But nerves don't just pass thru bones. Nerves, according to "the experts," control functions in the bone, like growth, blood production, registering pain, bone regeneration. Nerves are indeed part of your bones.

Additionally, I'd say the pipes in my wall are part of the wall. The are not an essential part of my wall, but indeed part of it. OTOH, if you removed the nerves from my femur, the bone would die.

I guess we will agree to disagree and you can go on trusting internet experts.

I heard the military jets by my house. They closed down airspace around my area, Lake Michigan, the UP, Lake Huron and parts of lower Michigan. The one in Alaska and in Huron looked to have payloads attached to them. I know the local Coast Guard was sending up divers and what not. The UP has a Air Force base and a ton of other stuff critical to the US Defense Network. Just glad if war does pop off I am in an area that won't get hit. One advantage of living in the middle of the Northwoods.

Internet experts? These are published PhDs working at university researching the subject being discussed. The internet is how information gets disseminated in the 21st century.

Accessed via the internet. Internet experts is a valid title in this case. Always quick to argue the left is. Hmmm.

Comprehension is not your strong suit. I very clearly answered your question

I guess we will agree to disagree and you can go on trusting internet experts.

Internet experts are people like you, who make claims such as “there are no nerves in bones”, or claims that millions of election votes were stolen by Biden.

I look to actual experts, like the doctors who write medical textbooks and journals, and have the hands-on experience day in and day out.
