I despise as a descriptor ‘people of color’ but if we are going to use it then whites are ‘people who don’t see color in themselves but see it in others’

For deadly famine starvation in East Africa: nutrition deficiency issues

For the deadly Fentanyl addiction overdose epidemic: heart-beat maintenance difficulties

While we’re at it, ‘cancer’ has become a bit of a daunting term lately. It might soften the blow if we refer to it as ‘exceptional cell growth’.

My point is, not all of those offences in the pyramid are rape. So it’s inaccurate to call it all rape culture. But all of it is rapey. So it would be accurate to call it rapey culture.

Genocide and holocaust are unpleasant also. What should we call em? Ethnic cleansing is taken.

Anti-social sexual behavior?
That is a horrible euphemism. Simon, you want to sanitize culture that fosters rape and discourages reporting of rape?
And once again Enco is the champion of the powerful and the oppressors. The full power of the law must come down on those who would dare to falsely accuse a suspect of rape. Concomitantly we must…[Read more]

Enco,
Your bias in favor of the oppressors and the entrenched power is apparent. You use words like smear to describe any perceived criticism of capitalism or the reputations of those accused of rape. As to laws that would/do protect the vulnerable from historical and ongoing irrational hatred you label TRICK LAWS.
What a ridiculous contention…[Read more]

IDK if Reg has linked this for Sunday School but i think it is pretty cool and such a horrible disease that touches so many lives it is worth knowing.

You’d be a wonderful lawyer or any number of professions.

No, Enco, no.
And after any trial, if the accused men are found innocent, there should be civil damages and criminal counter-charges of false accusation and imprisonment. Writes Enco!
Accused are not found innocent. They may be found not guilty. That does not prove innocence. The burden of proof on the state is no small thing. Just cuz a jury…[Read more]

Schtick?
Hmm…never really considered the connotations. In a sense we are all actors on a stage with schtick. If it comes naturally is it deschticked? Yeah i suppose schtick does indicate some deviation from one’s normal persona.
In any event i don’t find him clever. He is the guy down the street that is sort of amusing for ten minutes. And…[Read more]

Simon, you are going to go there?
Dawkins v. Craig character test?
Craig is utterly lacking in integrity. He is a christian soldier/apologist who has made an art the sophistry of his christian polemics. As such he has a direct impact in perpetuating an ideology in which women are subordinate and more susceptible to abuse. Dawkins is a…[Read more]

It wasn’t Dawkins inviting her to coffee. It was some other guy. All done politely. I would put this very much in a grey zone of behaviour. I don’t think politely asking someone in an elevator at 4 am to have a coffee in your room is inherently a bad thing to do. It could be scuzzy under some circumstances at worst. I do think broadcasting…

Michael, does that passage from Luke have room for interpretation, so much so that to label it ambiguous scarcely conveys the latitude afforded the believer?
What is the point of a rhetorical question?

And the angel told Michael17 if he’d be a good boy he would have god for his father and never want joy.
Though the morning was cold Michael was happy and warm as nonbaryonic UFO’s swarmed.

Just go ahead and dazzle us with the connection between pyramid UFO’s and prophecy.

Yeah Reg, digression is the oxygen of intelligence.
Is it treason to derail flights of fancy, flights of reason…which makes me wonder whether the neural tracking is hampered or restricted by the untimely imposition of indoctrination? That is a rhetorical question.
