Skinner is by no means universally accepted. Anti-skinner sentiment has been rising for the past three decades. Behaviorism at its core is pretty stupid.

I knew they were omnivores but i didn't know that the "Blood" Frenzy thing was a myth.
I thought they were like some species sharks in that regard

Same here. I could have been ruler of Spain, the Netherlands, and Austria, but new dynasties rule all of those.

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

I thought you could still use the title, just without it being a legal thing that matters like it would be in countries with a monarchy.

Sharks aren't 'mean and evil killing machines' either
They just confuse humans with seals, tuna or something, sometimes ;D
I think that piranha-myth came from their little, razor-sharp teeth, their swarm-intelligence and because they eat drowned/drowning animals, sometimes. They're not strong enough to pull animals underwater, though.

To my knowledge the laws in Austria are pretty clear that titles were abolished and can no longer be used. "Von" isn't even permitted in names, officially.

You can bring up as many names as you like, but a bad idea is a bad idea. Aristotle understood foundational logic very well, and syllogisms are just a basic fact, but was a shitty observer when it came to biology. Most thinkers are deficient in at least one area regardless of their excellence in others.

That's good, at least one line you can stick to. Same with my relatives, funnily. Dad's family is full of radical Catholics, mum's is nice and open-minded.
He abandoned his Nation?
That's...I can't even comprehend that to be honest.

I have only be that close to babies though.
Sharks are such majestic creatures.
