Is Max Eberle as big as a goof as I now think?

no one here is making fun of him as a person or saying he isnt a great guy or not intelligent. or calling him personal things, but are calling him out for his views on things that are obviously stupid thoughts about the earth. which also probably lead to other outlandish views in other segments of life.
Be hard to believe with over 500 post on em.
 
no one is making fun of him AS A PERSON. but sure as hell making fun over his views on the earth.

i think he has thick skin anyway. it is those who want to protect him that need thicker skins.

as far as i can see he is loved everywhere as a person. and likely laughs at himself as well.

I've followed threads here and on Facebook where Max has shown a very good sense of humor about it all.

I've often wondered if he has been putting one over on everyone all this time. (CJ, too) He's very convincing tho. If he has been, its the greatest punk ever...

I agree that he certainly seems like a good guy, by accounts. I've never had the good fortune to meet him.
 
I got to know Max fairly well over the years, even traveling with him on occasion. He is a very interesting man with some interesting points of view. Yes, he believes in the Flat Earth theory, which I've attempted to explain the fallacy of this to him on more than one occasion. And yes, he is into other conspiracies as well, as someone else pointed out on this thread. I guess some people are just wired this way. All this said, Max is an excellent pool player and a very talented artist. And I think we all know that very creative type people can be eccentric.

By the way, the Universe as we know it, is still in it's infancy, only maybe fourteen or fifteen billion years old. It has been postulated that it should last for billions and billions of years before finally dying out. We are babies in this Universe, on a planet that is only four or five billion years old and humans have been here a relatively short time, maybe two million years at best and modern man (Homo Sapiens) only about 250-300,000 years. A blink of the eye in the Universe's history. There may well be (or have been) other intelligent life forms in the Universe long before us that have died out, and almost without question there must be other intelligent life out there now, probably billions of them on different planets. All of them far different from us and yet with some similar qualities. They have the same problem we do, the inability to reach out far beyond their own locale. All life forms are suited for life on the planet they exist on, just like us. Of course, the correlation here is that with so many worlds out there that can sustain life (oxygen, nitrogen and water should do the trick), shouldn't there be some like ours. And yes there probably is, but we will never know! We are very frail creatures, barely able to hang on here and we may be extinct a million or two years from now. It sure looks possible from what we are doing currently to destroy the environment that gave birth to us.

We nearly died out about 75,000 years ago, after a major meteor hit the Earth and sent us into a long ice age. We were down to maybe only 10,000 to 50,000 people on the entire planet! That we survived is only due to our superior intelligence and ability to adapt to severe weather conditions. It was only after this episode in our history that we really started to make breakthroughs in using the resources we had available from the Earth like agriculture, solar and wind power. I have been corrected by Westcoast. It was a huge volcanic eruption and not a meteor strike.

Am I a scientist? You're damn right, as much as anyone else who claims to be one. If you have a working brain, you can theorize as well as they can. And maybe I'm just as nuts as Max! :)

Very interesting post.

It is a bit anxiety provoking that we almost went extinct around 75,000 years ago. Minor clarification, I think it was due to a huge volcanic eruption, not a meteor strike.

You are correct. I got my global calamities confused. The giant meteor wiped out the dinosaurs many millions of years ago.
 
30 pages?

This one is so easy, ask yourself a simple question.

What would happen to the "Greatest Planet Known to Mankind" if an X-class solar flairs super charged particles hit it?
 
at some point in time in the distant future the sun will consume the earth and earth will be uninhabitable.
so mankind on earth is temporary until then, and iffy during that time span.

at that moment in time all expensive cues will become instantly worthless.

Except for Jackpots. :)

I'm not so sure Jay.

I’ve asked on AZ of Max....what would you say to Buzz Aldrin if you met him....no reply...he was still active on here
....seems moon landing denying goes with flat earth thinking

it would make a good fit pt.

but you already know that jfk and elvis are still alive and well.
 
I've been in the flat earth conspiracy since 2014 and the topic fascinates me in a funny way, I always watch the debates on youtube for a laugh of what a flat earther might say because non of which make sense....Most of their arguments comes from misunderstanding of sciense. I've studied flat earthers and I still watch/follow them for laughs honestly.

I've seen all of their arguments, first of all let me tell you I am a Mechanical Engineer and I know exactly how they can misunderstand each and every argument they're into, some of which are just plain stupid and others are just the typical "Oh it made sense to me" or the other "I trust my senses" which is always flawed with us humans. I can literally show you pictures of straight lines and your eyes will deceive you thinking they are zigzagging, the human senses are just not as good as you may think. But tell that to a flat earther and he'll just disagree.

Anyway, as I said I've studied flat earthers and there are some traits in humans to become gullible enough to think the earth is flat.

1- A flat earther must be a government hater, this is a given fact! If you check all the flat earthers they have this in common, all of them think the governments are lying to them. All of them will never take the vaccine, all of them think the 9-11 is an inside job, all of them don't want governments at all.

2- The majority of flat earthers (Not all, but most) are uneducated, you can check their background. Most of them probably did not went to college or university, their highest education is probably grade 8 or 9 depending on the country but to put it into perspective, most of them quit schools at the age of 14-15.

3- To become a flat earther you must be in love with drama and conspiracy in general. You will never find a flat earther if they haven't been into conspiracies prior to flat earth, it's one of their traits. I mean you can check their eyes once you put a youtube video to them about the holocaust being fake or pyramids weren't build by the Egyptians, or a video of the moon fake landing...you can see their eyes will shine, this is something that's inside of their blood being in love with conspiracies. So if you found a guy like that, he's more likely to become a flat earther after watching an Eric Dubay (flat earth) video. Find me one flat earther who doesn't believe the 9/11 was an inside job, you will not find one, because it is usually a guy who loves conspiracies, he starts with the moon landing being fake, then into 9/11 then few conspiracies after that and in the end he'll find a flat earth youtube video.

4- All flat earthers find their resources and researchs on youtube by other gullible flat earthers, they think youtube is a research, they never read peer reviewd science books because yet again, they don't believe the system/goverment, they hate goverment as said in point 1.

5- A flat earther is most of the time just not smart enough, sorry to say this but it is true. He should be slow in general, if you give him an exam he'll do miserably, but then again he doesn't believe in education so he'll tell you that what is in the exam is just wrong.

These are the traits of a person who is more likely to become a Flat Earther.

So common latitude and longitude (GIS SURVEY) information crush flat earth non sense. Maritime compass information also prove the earth is rotating.

However Max is one of the few people I have never heard a bad word mentioned. And he has contributed to pool, both team USA and instruction. So I find the insults on Max offensive.

I also find it sad that "haters" run many pros off this forum. Leaving those clowns and wannabes to "pass on" pool "knowledge". 😂 What a joke!
