I'm sorry the universe is unintuitive, but there are better ways of dealing with it.
Hi Cu, and thanx! This is what I have been saying all along.
Maybe, I misunderstand what you mean by intuitive, so perhaps you should give your definition. If we wish to make an appeal to popularity, we can use this Google definition (which I have posted b4):
Intuition: Using or based on what one feels to be true even without conscious reasoning; instinctive.
Based on that definition, you can see clearly see that I have not been saying that at all. I have repeatedly said that in a hypothesis one must rationally define their key terms. It seems like you and others here are guilty of basing your "beliefs" on what you feel to be "true" based upon what you have been told, and not by actually applying the scientific method.
It is a shame that I have to repeat myself so often because folks refuse to actually read what I am saying.
