From my vantage your post showed up originally and now is linkless. I was not familiar with that guy. Listened to him for an hour or so while i handicpapped equines. Just a little too verbose for my liking. So nothing against his analytical capability just not my cup of goat cheese. Reminds me of Rachel Maddow. She drives me nuts. Get to…[Read more]

I remember when Lance Armstrong was dominating bike racing, our CEO came out wearing a little bike racing outfit and gave a video speech to his thousands of employees about being a winner like him.
Two weeks later Armstrong was found to be cheating with steroids.
Frankly, fuck the trajectory of sports. The commercialization, and the “win at any…[Read more]

Here, Armin Navabi shows footage of Gazans getting aid from the Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) and praising both the U.S. and Trump for the aid, as well as condemning Hamas:

Armin also gives a fair criticism of GHF that it has a logistical problem with organization,…[Read more]

We’re all sympathetic with trans people, but it’s a difficult dilemma to resolve satisfactorily. In the UK it’s just been decided legally that for some purposes, such as women’s safe spaces, a person’s biological sex is what matters and not their social and psychological gender. So, in effect, we’ve decided that for some purposes, you can’t c…[Read more]

Armin Navabi, who runs Atheist Republic, does a superb job of defending Israel, trashing the Mullahs of his homeland of Iran, as well as giving a balanced thrashing of Abrahamic, Vedic, and Oriental religions. Here’s his YouTube site, with links to the main Atheist Republic site and his other social…[Read more]

Before I begin, I recognize that Trump and MAGA come at this issue from a either a hate- or religion-based angle. Let’s set that aside and realize that it’s a real issue that would eventually come up without them.
How seriously to take gender identity is becoming impossible to sidestep in the world of…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 year, 5 months agoThis guy is pro israel and pretty much a straight shooter. “Tell me in what other war has a country supplied humanitarian aid to its enemy?” This thought has occurred to me repeatedly. When the allies were terror bombing the Germans they were sending food? When the Germans were killing civilians and causing the worst humanitarian conditions in…[Read more]

Gemini AI didn’t mention that there was no October 7th in Czechoslavak history after it broke up, and after they went their separate ways, neither the Czech Republic’s legitimacy nor Slavakia’s legitimacy was ever questioned, and no ethnicity was blamed for every evil in the world. And no one wanted to bring “The Seven Day War” to every…[Read more]

Of course the Jew-haters in our streets are sickening too! I’ve been on your side all alone here.
I’m just saying that Goat-Talk vs. God-Talk is the Greatest-Of-All-Time False Dilemma Fallacies. You’d expect this from Apologetics but not from rational thinkers. I’m sure J-Street-ers and AIPAC-ers would agree with me and say: “Get off…[Read more]
