Robert,

If we arm every ape/human with a gun, what could go wrong? The NRA has an entire anti-statistics department working overtime to make 1+1=3. Because 6.3 school shootings a week keeps the kids awake and alert.

Cite?

We don’t need one gun for every ape/human, just one for every would-be victim. Anybody have have statistics on who that could be?

Reg,

I am not sold on the multiverse theory. Too many strings attached.

Occam’s Razor cuts those strings easily. One Universe with lots of unknowns is the best catch-all.

Jake,

As far as that bearing arms amendment and what i want is good regulations and major penalties for arms bearers failing to attain the requirements beforehand. Prove you know what you are doing with a gun safety course or test passed. No sales to minors.

Alas, all that was in place in Israel on October 7th and there were nowhere near enough…[Read more]

Jake,

Every Jew a 22, stay alive with a 45.

Ah, you’ve seen the good side of the steel-and-brass pill.

So i was wondering what Dawkins meant in his famous quote…god of the old testament is arguably the most unpleasant charcter in all fiction…sadomasochistic capriciously malevolent bully…

I’ve never understood that Dawkins quote either. The G…[Read more]

Reg,

The Slippery Slope of selective recognition: The Anti-Hinduphobia Bill of Georgia

There is a very simple Occam’s Razor to address this: Every individual has equal rights before the law that deserve equal respect, regardless of thoughts, beliefs, or conditions of birth.

Thoughts and beliefs, however, do not have rights and do not deserve…[Read more]

Jake and Unseen,

Here, Armin Navabi shows footage of Gazans getting aid from the Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) and praising both the U.S. and Trump for the aid, as well as condemning Hamas:

Armin also gives a fair criticism of GHF that it has a logistical problem with organization,…[Read more]

For some reason, my post don’t show up initially and I end up repeating. Here below is my post.

Jake,

Armin Navabi, who runs Atheist Republic, does a superb job of defending Israel, trashing the Mullahs of his homeland of Iran, as well as giving a balanced thrashing of Abrahamic, Vedic, and Oriental religions. Here’s his YouTube site, with links to the main Atheist Republic site and his other social…[Read more]

Unseen,

Gemini AI didn’t mention that there was no October 7th in Czechoslavak history after it broke up, and after they went their separate ways, neither the Czech Republic’s legitimacy nor Slavakia’s legitimacy was ever questioned, and no ethnicity was blamed for every evil in the world. And no one wanted to bring “The Seven Day War” to every…[Read more]

Jake,

Of course the Jew-haters in our streets are sickening too! I’ve been on your side all alone here.

I’m just saying that Goat-Talk vs. God-Talk is the Greatest-Of-All-Time False Dilemma Fallacies. You’d expect this from Apologetics but not from rational thinkers. I’m sure J-Street-ers and AIPAC-ers would agree with me and say: “Get off…[Read more]

Jake,

Ok so i am assuming you want a more detailed explanation of hearsay and exceptions to hearsay rule.

No, I was wondering what’s with the fixation with goat impregnation. This serves no end except as an ipicac.

Jake,

Yeah Enco you are debating the allegations and avoiding whataboutism. Reminds me of law. HEARSAY! Hearsay as a general rule is not admissible. Objection, hearsay! The proponent counters with one of the exceptions to the rule like excited utterance. “Oh my fucking god that guy is naked in public and trying to make that goat pregant!” Ear…

Unseen,

The fallacy of composition is a logical fallacy that occurs when one incorrectly assumes that what is true for the parts of a whole must also be true for the whole itself. In other words, it’s the mistake of attributing a characteristic of individual members or parts to the entire group or system, without sufficient justification.

War, G…[Read more]

Reg,

Perfectly explained. His followers are not smart enough or have enough experience of living independently to see behind the curtain, which is woven from a fake sense of profundity. He seldom answers a question directly and when he does, he employs terminology that sounds intellectual but is always either vague or overly complicated. I have…

Reg,

I was very deliberate and careful in my wording of the post

No need to be careful with the phrasing of the post except maybe on YouTube or BlueSky or another site that’s gone beyond Woke to Weenie. Then the post may get “unalived.”

Dating of The post is another matter. I questioned my eyesight and sleeping patterns when I saw the first…[Read more]

Reg,

What’s it like to be an AI?

Again again, Bullwinkle? I’m detecting a pattern here.

Look, there was talk that AI could have been used to write RFKJR’s MAHA Report. Until AI becomes smart enough to resist being used by proudly delusional, oblivious jerks like RFKJR, I don’t want to know what it’s like to be an AI.

Reg,

The role of migration and population dynamics in shaping human history does not necessitate a return to the flawed ideologies of the past.

Coincidentally, I was reading this Quillette article yesterday. I agree with what you say.

Proper study of ancient DNA (aDNA, as it’s called) does not mean revival of Gustav Kossinna’s Kultur-Gruppen…[Read more]

Unseen,

Why do you assume they all speak with one voice? I’ll stick with genocide for myself. It sure looks like Netanyahu and his ilk won’t be done until the last man, woman, child, and infant is pushing up daisies. Apartheid was more applicable before the genocide began.

The Anti-Israel protestors are alleging all three.

So, if Israel is gen…[Read more]

Unseen,

So what is it, War, Genocide, or Apartheid? Anti-Israel protesters keep moving the goalposts here.

And while Whataboutism is a Logical Fallacy, isn’t is also a Logical Faux Pas to have the soft bigotry of lowered expectations for Islamic and Third World peoples?

Again, October 7 happened on Netanyahu’s watch, so he’s not above scrutiny here.
