Jake,

The consequences of assuming free will in others as it relates to their beliefs/norms is disastrous. Lets take Muslim martyrs. Kids that their mothers are proud of for agreeing to die so that they can kill innocents for a cause they imagine is more important than their lives makes us look at those diehard Muslims as despicable. No wonder…

@Jake

There’s nothing “indefensible” about believing it’s indefensible to use starvation as a political tool.

The way lefties arrive at the indefensible?

It is not a product of reason. That is for sure.

It is a mythology. Beliefs. They didn’t reason their way into those positions and most are incapable of reasoning their way out. Again, is there anything so fucking stupid, retarded, degenerate, outlandish, improbable, transparent, juvenile that it…[Read more]

Enco,

E N C O and that rhymes with Aamco. My second case as an attorney i represented a franchisee of Aamco. Can recall climbing rickety wooden steps to his office and feeling inadequate as a fledgling. Also feeling i want the case/don’t want the case. In the land of the blind… Well he signed that retainer agreement. First case was a total…[Read more]

Thanks, I appreciate those examples of radio history. Even that recently, I was in a stage of ignoring most radio shows. Even as an atheist back then, I didn’t like Dawkins or Hitchens because I thought they were too strident or disrespectful. It took a while for me to mature enough to appreciate them. I was more in awe of Dennett at the time.

PopeBeanie,

Although I don’t agree with Neal Boortz (or anyone else) 100 percent, his program was Talk Radio Gold!

Here he is off the air not taking any bait from Alex Jones

And here Neal Boortz is taking on a practitioner of The Religion of Peace and Compassion! Though Neal is an eclectic sort of…[Read more]

Jake,

If you posit free will and a modicum of intelligence, say on the level of a border collie, how do you get to the point in which progressives are defending Islamism? Literally everything that progressives want to achieve, their values; Islam seeks to destroy.

So how do you get to the point where progressives are turning a blind eye to the…

Jake,

That is the me who can’t help but see things on a personal level. I am doing what we all do-ascribing intention to the mindless indoctrination of mindless and readily influenced majorities. As long as our species continue to operate on that understandable and yet errant assumption prospects are grim. How can we or at least the true i…

Jake,

The crew in Mystery Science Theater 3000 had the idea that “The Desiderata” could be an action-packed comic book
graphic novel, as well as invented many children of their own comic Universe:

Jake and Fellow Unbelievers,

Cracks in the Big, Beautiful House of MAGA. Their paranoia, bigotry, and self-obliviousness have turned them upon each other:

Enco,

I am not trippin man. I am questioning the implicit assumption that almost everyone seems to make about human behavior. It does not require an exhaustive examination of history to reach the conclusion that we are as easily led/trained/conditioned as our dogs. The vast majority are the antithesis of Reg. They form hardcore beliefs and those…[Read more]

Jake,

I know that October 7 as well as time and events before and after it are all real. But you can’t say that and take your Strawberry Fields Metaphysical position:

No core beliefs about reality except nothing we would recognize as such exists. That is my gut talking.

And, as a side note, that Beatles song frightened me as a kid, even…[Read more]

In keeping with the theme of beliefs driving behavior and indoctrination driving beliefs check this out. Look how powerful the lefty BS is in driving acts of jew hatred. I am confident that the far right is going to be emboldened as time rolls on and the acceptance of collective Jew guilt is unchallenged.…[Read more]

Jake stops, pops & gives props to Enco.

You nailed the Desiderata out of that one. The presumption of God in that work is an error. Even so a generally good message is conveyed.

Took me a few seconds to decipher Strawberry Fields. I like that song and decided some time ago it is a stream of consciousness song. Even if it is not intended as…[Read more]

That is hilarious! (I actually did laugh out loud, but didn’t rotfl.)

Jake,

Was October 7, 2023 real? What have all of us been going back and forth on all this time?

Jake, you’ll really want to reconsider the Strawberry Fields stance. There are others who don’t mean well standing there in the patch too who want you there making fertilizer.

And “The Desiderata” works best in a Desiderata world with Desiderata people.
