30 People Share Stories About “ Professionals” Who Had Some Controversial Opinions

Rokas Laurinavičius and

Publish Not your original work? Add source It's one thing if your Uncle Dave said he doesn't believe in time. But it would be a completely different conversation if the same words came out of a clockmaker.

Inspired by a tweet where a microbiologist expressed his disappointment after learning that one of their colleagues was an anti-vaxxer, Reddit user u/MoniMokshith made a post on r/facepalm, saying "I had to teach a historical geology class because the geologist who was supposed to teach [it] was a Young Earth Creationist." The post immediately blew up. As of this article, it has over 98K upvotes.

And that's not even the most impressive part. The comment section got filled with similar stories, with people talking about "professionals" who made a career despite their controversial -- and often contradictory -- personal views. Here are some of them.

Image credits: foamtherunway This post may include affiliate links. #1 I'm an RN and worked with FAR too many people in the healthcare field as a whole (not just other nurses, but also lab workers, RT's, pharmacists, hell even some MD's) who think/thought COVID was a hoax or "greatly exaggerated" and are now refusing the new vaccine, even though we all KNOW how mRNA and vaccines work. Plenty of anti-maskers too.

It's like they just used their degrees as tissue paper or something, I seriously don't get how you can learn what we learn, understand it well enough to practice in the field, and yet still allow political stances to override all that, it's freaking ridiculous. zombie_goast , Jonathan Borba Report Final score: 366points POST Robert T Robert T Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Never underestimate the power of stupidity. 130 130points reply View More Replies...

I always wondered why people go into professions that are directly opposed to their beliefs. Seems like a miserable existence.

Zeno_The_Alien , pxhere Report Final score: 262points POST Colin Matthews Colin Matthews Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago It's because they want to prove it to themselves to try and answer the huge doubts they have about religious dogma 47 47points reply View More Replies... View more comments #3 I’ve worked with an aerospace/aeronautical engineer once that believed the earth was flat.

It was so weird because in order for the calculations to function properly, you have to take into account of the earth not being flat. humanCharacter , pxhere Report Final score: 260points POST Grumble O'Pug Grumble O'Pug Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago (edited) This is getting ridiculous 104 104points reply View More Replies...

The cognitive dissonance is real.

Of course none of them came up to help on our covid units ThisisMalta · , Hush Naidoo Report Final score: 251points POST Grumble O'Pug Grumble O'Pug Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Really sad 48 48points reply View More Replies... View more comments #5 Degree is Psychology here.

So many peers with devout faith, one brain dead moron took psychology as a way “to know god better” he told me and convert more to Jesus.

Once took a course literally called, “Belief in Weird Things” which was for Psych majors. 300 students enrolled, nearly half dropped out because they were offended at some point when we broke down their weird beliefs.

Melancholic_Mando , Startup Stock Photos Report Final score: 196points POST Sian Edwards Sian Edwards Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I'm all for people having faith in any religion or moral code, but they have to accept that others don't necessarily share those beliefs. 81 81points reply View More Replies... View more comments #6 Used to be a science teacher and I always got flack on the evolution chapter from parents that were doctors.

Like babe I hope you at least believe in bacteria and viruses evolving...

I've also come across many nurses who don't think mental illness is real. deathbychips2 , Andrew Neel Report Final score: 195points POST Bowtechie Bowtechie Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I once had an uber driver who claimed she was a semester shy of completing her nursing degree.

She said vaccines caused my T1 Diabetes. I was diagnosed so young I didn't even have all my first doses yet.

I asked through the grapevine why he washes his hands before and after handling food and the reply was “that’s common sense”. But somehow the scientific medical community saying that masks help prevent illnesses is just a big hoax. It’s beyond frustrating.

SilkwormAbraxas , Tanya Gorelova Report Final score: 194points POST Robert T Robert T Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago So he'll wash his hands, but will still breathe a respiritory-born virus over people's food. Damn I'm going to need a big bat.

She's a pharmacist. S0mber_ , Bru-nO Report Final score: 168points POST Martha Meyer Martha Meyer Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I think the homeopathy trend has more to do with the fact that many people haven't found the medical help they needed from traditional medicine.

When I pressed him on being a former pilot and believing malarkey he claimed the schools indoctrination into round earth didn’t work on him and that the pilots windscreen was a very thick and curved glass that made everything appear to be curved. epidemic , imcckpit Report Final score: 167points POST Roger Haywood Roger Haywood Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Flattards.

Practical-Purchase-9 , National Cancer Institute Report Final score: 81points POST Samantha Lomb Samantha Lomb Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Honestly, research, publication and supervisory skills are totally different anyway.

I know a number of PhDs who were horrific supervisors. One actually got banned by the department from taking female grad students as she was horrifically emotionally abusive to them and they had to scramble to find new supervisors. No one would ever warn the incoming students though.

Their PhD work actually involved the analysis of heavy metals in an environment and how it impacted a childs likelihood to develop autism. I got into it with them, and they were able to reference a handful of scholarly papers to justify their stance. howmuchforthissquirr , RF._.studio Report Final score: 63points POST Samantha Lomb Samantha Lomb Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Honestly, having a PhD myself, its not about intelligence but more about the ability to complete tasks on time.

A lot of really smart people never finish cause they are either perfectionists or terrible at time management. And A LOT of scholars cherry pick information to fit their points of view 62 62points reply View More Replies...
