Predictably CNN downplayed the role of Islam and terrorism. One of their guests opined it was most likely a pilot who lost his marbles. Fox on other hand if memory serves said, “it was a Muslim from Oman.” Lefty media is forever downplaying role of Islam in motivating terrorists or wrongdoers. The rapists of Europe are just part of the pat…

Fellow Unbelievers:
Here lately, there has been too much in the news to think about MST3K. The zone has been so flooded with so much crap, it’s enough to make even the most gentle of us start blasting at the many turds coming our way!
Fortunately, there is a harmless way to do it without innocent collateral damage: The MST3K. Episode with the…[Read more]

Some time ago, one of the big-wigs of Alternatifs fur Deutcheland actually converted to Islam and said he wanted to “build bridges” between German Muslims and German Right-Wingers. Ecumunism of this sort usually means going after a third, which in Germany means: Get the Jews and LGBTQ.

100 percent analogy is not analogy. Just is not.
This is precisely what I’ve been saying. To use a simile of my own, looking for a 100 percent analogy is like sending some on a prank errand to buy a Non-Genetically Modified Seedless Watermelon. Doesn’t exist. (Nor for that matter does any Non-Genetically Modified food since the time…[Read more]

100 percent analogy is a contradiction in terms. If there is no line of demarcation, no variation and no way to distinguish things being compared then it is not an analogy.
Recall, I said: “Obviously, no analogy is 100 percent perfect, otherwise, it would be a tautology.”. So we are saying the same thing, only differently.
By the way, my…

I would like to quibble…I might be wrong so won’t swear on the holey bibble….but would a 100% analogy not be an ‘identity’? A tautology is a statement true by its logical form. An analogy that matched in every respect would simply describe the same thing twice?
You are right on all counts, Reg. A 100 percent perfect analogy is an “identity…[Read more]

It is kind of unreal that you adduce Speed Racer as a model for the assimilation of technology. But there ya go. Loved that show when i was a little’n.
Obviously, no analogy is 100 percent perfect, otherwise it would be a tautology. And we would be driving on OpenAIs and Anthropics as well.

The past is not a defendant. Criticizing earlier cultures is lazy and useless, we should learn from them instead.
Actually we can criticize and learn from history at the same time. And people could and did also condemn and resist slavery and imperialism during the times when they occured.
