Do you expect the community of physicists to accept that
a shark is a fish predator when their beloved and superingenious
Giant Guru has announced, that it is a four legged grass eater?
Common sense is a collection of prejudices, never forget
about it.

As Giant Guru has defined - whoever thinks that a shark
could be a fish is a stupid, uneducated crank! Howgh!
And he doesn't know the Holy Scientific Method, too.

I see that you're as ignorant of taxonomy as you are of relativity.
"Fish" is not a recognized class, but a grouping of several classes, of
which the best known are bony fishes (most fishes) and cartilaginous
fishes (sharks etc.). So although a shark is not a bony fish there is
no reason why you shouldn't call it a fish if you like.

I see you're a good relativistic doggie, smoothly fabricating,
lying and slandering against the enemies of your holy
religion, like a good relativistic doggie should. Good.
Scientific method obligges.

Unless, of course, an ingenious guru define shark as
four legged grass eater, simultaneously announcing
(defining?) common sense as a collection of prejudices.
In that case - whoever think that a shark can be a fish
becomes a stupid, uneducated crank.
