hedgehog-goulash7:tellmevarric:fuckyeahtonystark:#a man with multiple PhD’sActually, this is good scientific thinking. You have a problem, you don’t start with the most complex solution, you start with the simplest solution and see whether it would work. If not, you move on to the next simplest solution and so on and so on.So, in this situation: The problem is that Thanos needs all 6 stones and they don’t have a lot of time to find a solution. Easiest way to fix the problem is to deny him 1 or more of those stones. Easiest way to deny him a stone in a short space of time? Destroy it.Given that Tony has dealt with 2 infinity stones thus far, I doubt he thinks it would actually work but the other part of science is the concept of ‘there is no such thing as a stupid question’, especially when presented with new and/or unknown variables. So, even if he doesn’t think it would work, he’s dealing with an object that’s a little bit outside even his breadth of knowledge and he’s talking to people who have abilities he doesn’t, so… you ask the stupid question. Can we destroy it?It just got much better -- source link
