Enco,

De rigueur has many spellings and most of em aint propuh including my de rigor stopper.

Don’t give ALL enlightenment figs too much credit for being divorced from their contemporary biases. Diderot for instance was a Jew hater. Voltaire not much more enlightened in that manner.

Keep in mind that it is ultra important that criticism of…[Read more]

Simon there is one major exception to the vulnerability and feeling unsafe as a result of a political statement. Jews. It is not only tolerated it is deriguer to make Jews feel unsafe and unwanted.

54 percent of Americans are dead nuts certain of God. Yeah there is hope for us.

Yikes, here I am, late to the party!

Thanks, Reg!!

The best democracy money can buy?

How about best University Qatar can buy?

Reg, you articulated the dynamic accurately. No issue with anything you’re written. I confess i was unaware or perhaps forgot about Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Yeah Enco,

UN is a bad joke. I was just listening to an Iranian woman and her jeremiad regarding lefties, and how the cause of human right have been abandoned to an ideology. One amusingly disgusting woe regarding how the UN Council on Women’s Rights was headed by Islamic Republic of Iran! Also how badly fucked over they were by OBammy and Bidun.…[Read more]

Enco,

One story from one survivor quoting JP.

A Holocaust survivor gave a speech in Hebrew at the United Nations General Assembly session to commemorate the Holocaust Remembrance Day for the first time in history on Tuesday.

Born in Poland, Weinstein talked about her life before the Second World War, her parents and siblings, her grandmother,…[Read more]

@Jake  I can’t disagree with any of your comment regarding intelligence, and I particularly like the capitalised Actual Intelligence. Really good food for thought.

Enco,

Those labels might be applicable to Trump but it does not negate the essential feature if my guess is correct.

It should not be a badge of honor to be an atheist. Nor is it some feat of ratiocination to be an atheist. The persistence of religion is testament to how very amenable to manipulation we are. If you discover life on some other…[Read more]

When i read about the following it made me think about the issues of discrimination against trans people and even whether it is real.

‘researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Canada have discovered a specific group of neurons in the brain that acts as an “on/off” switch, showing profound differences between male and female brain…[Read more]

Enco,

I was not aware of that. It is so obvious that ideology robs ideologues of their compassion. If one is not part of the in-group then fuck em. Let em fucking die a miserable death.

Don’t forgot Trump also abandoned the Kurds. And i think it was Trump who got US out of Afghanistan which enabled the Taliban to be purely Islamic and the…[Read more]

Enco,

Can you even construct the degree of fake sympathy for the innocents in Iran if it were Jews who were doing it?

The protests, riots, propaganda, attacks, violence against Jews would be WW2 like.

It is a sick fucking world. Humans can’t think with a few exceptions and their norms and morality are dealt to them like a dealer with his cards.

Just some heart-warming news to be aware or not…

Thanks Reg!

The lights may be dimmed as the worst storm ever is forecast.

So severe it may snap the ship in two!

Simon,”

It occurs to me we have no clue. And the ones who are educated only slightly greater enlightenment…maybe…

I thought as mass approaches speed of light it becomes infinite?

Simon,

If the universe is a block that does not register local events then why would the big bang be an exception?

And if big bang is a beginning at what point does blocking become the nature of the thing as a whole?

Just reread Reg’penultimate entry & it makes sense to me except that i don’t think it follows that humans experience something that is subjective in our perception of time. Einstein allowed us to revolutionize our understanding of time. And yet that does not alter the reality of physical laws of time and the physical evidence that seems to be…[Read more]

If fossils from age of dinos appear near the surface of earth and recent fossils below and without intervention or natural explanations then i will consider the notion time aint nothing. There is order precisely because there is time. The endless concatenation of events, of cause and effect, are consistent with linear notion of time that we…[Read more]
