The fact a full third of the human population everywhere is like this is why we haven't been to Mars and likely never will

I thought it was because Mars has no oxygen, same reason why we don't visit the Moon any more

Severely lowballing it. More like 7/8ths

Humans evolved to have a complex, reality interpreting mind stronger and faster than anything in the observable universe and these nignogs actively try to go against it with their mysticism.

It was fire with a host of speculative fuel sources. It's not a magical superweapon unless you're some kind of hill pajeet.

>what do you mean it was just a mix of various resins and naturally occurring petrochemicals, that can't be right, they must have had secret future tech factories even though they hadn't even figured out electricity

it's not that we can't replicate it you retard
it's that we don't know exactly which mixture they used out of a variety of mixtures that could have plausibly served the purpose

and before you mention it, the reason we don't use greek fire is because we have a wide variety of substances that are far better at what greek fire did, because we're a more advanced society

Space travel is as unrealistic as aliens/wizards/god. The more you learn about physics and astronomy, the better you'll understand that fact.

Mysticism is part of said complex reality interpreting cognition.
Humanitarian midwit literalists trying to appeal to actual science is embarrassing to watch.

I wasn't talking about fake science. I'm talking about how humanitarian midwits intentionally seek out discussions on topics without scientific consensus (that's their specialty after all) and proceed to act like they're Copernicus, without adding their own conjectures to the topic.
Sure, there are some people who claim a "wizard did it lol" but most of the time they're trolling or it's just a commentary on the insofar unknowable nature of the matter at hand. There's also a minority of people who actually believe a wizard did it, but they're such a small fraction of the population that they get brought up much more often than they take part in the conversation. It's just a really dumb and useless strawman, used by people with nothing to say, who want to feel smart.

How do you know that's true without an epistemology based on measurable facts? I personally believe asserting greek fire was aliens thoroughly undermines the human mind and serves to decrease our collective confidence in interpreting reality correctly, leading to mystics gaining more dialectic power. This is elitist in nature, leading to philosopher kings (or aspiring ones) who want to dictate what is real and what isn't. Man can know the truth, he necessarily must know the truth in order to live. That is how humans evolved to conquer the planet.

Literally 85% of the planet is religious, retard.

I believe we know how they did it we just don’t know WHICH method they used.

They did recreate it, it’s called Napalm
