Ok, let's take a physics class to learn biology.
 


All of the MD/PhDs that I know surely did, lots of them in fact.

It helps to understand the theory behind the equipment design and the processes involved, expecially if you are building the equipment. But you and all your crackpot buddies over at sci.skeptic are just pushing buttons, and you aren't even very good at it.

But, you claim ignorance is better than knowledge and understanding, and specialization is better than versatility, skepticism is better than useful results.

Watch how easy this is...

I'm a geneticist and I'm doing a series of experiments to map genes.


Using equipment that was designed using scientific methods, which surely involve interdisciplinary knowledge within the domains of mathematics, physics and chemistry, which have their foundations in QM and GR and classical mechanics.

 I have
no doubt you know how that would be done.  Tell me, oh great poster of
irrelevant weblinks who can say nothing by himself, how do I control for
quantum level effects?
How would *you* design the experiment?   hmmm...????

Here's your chance to shine.
 


You mean light? Emitted from atoms?

I'm studying character traits in a ring species as I'm interested in the
role of reproductive isolation in speciation.  How do I control for the
uncertainty principle?  You design the experiment and make that subatomic
stuff relevant.


It surely is relevant within the framework of scientific methods.

 Idiot.

You are fucking kookstain, nothing more.  Deal with it.

Work through some of the science links here, none of these technologies are possible without a fundamental understanding of almost all areas of mathematics, physics and chemistry. These technologies did not just appear out of nowhere, they evolved, apparently without your participation. I'm sure you have made great contibutions to land use policy on the vastly overdeveloped East coast of Florida, though, for which amphibians and reptiles everywhere are so grateful.
