Humans are debating the possible moral status of AI while using AI systems to help formulate their arguments.“I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that.” To give AI rights is the most frightening idea I’ve ever heard.

Christian racists and conspiracy driven fascists will gather in Texas to plan how to seize power in the name of their imaginary god.
Congress’ only humanist sounds the alarm on Christian nationalism. If only there were more “common-sense Republican focused on solving problems, not creating more division”.

Politics 4 days, 3 hours agoMore on “last minute” attempts of election tampering, in progress. My link skips about 6-1/4 minutes into the video to save time, getting right to the news kernals. I’d say then that about 6 minutes that follow are worth watching.

It’d be most cool if MAGA recognizes and revolt against how Trump/DOJ/Election Deniers push plans to corrupt election results.

Sunday School 1 week, 3 days agoHave a great week! The first video Bad Faith 2026 is very good. Christian Persecution in America is the intolerable injustice of Christians being subjected to the same rules as everybody else.

I remember Oct 17 1989, as the day a big quake, the “Loma Prieta” hit the SF Bay Area. I saw ripples move through the pavement of a parking lot, about 25 miles north of SF. Yet I’m still not prepared well enough for the next big one.
