Just to elaborate, if we assume that a top bellwether is wrong once every ten elections, then the chance of 16 of them being wrong in the same election is 1 in 10,000,000,000,000,000.

Those are also roughly the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot TWICE IN A ROW. Absolutely insane imo.

People believe in organic life out of nothing; 10 to the 156 power an amino acid is able to form through "natural means". That's more than all the atoms in the universe. The more things change, the more they stay the same. "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools".
