What is wrong with physicists? Why is physics poisoned by this psuedo-religous nonsense?

>>	Anonymous Tue May 5 21:30:57 2020 No.11641396 No one thinks like this and physics formulas are not elegant at all. E=mc2 or whatever is just a shortened version to a very specific scenario, but the whole messy formula applies to any conditions
