And of course Jesus did not allow himself to be born in China where people could read and write and did Science.

@jakelafort….of course we are still going to fact check you 🙂 I know you wouldn’t expect less!

Yes, China had a unique floating orchard ship in its fleet during the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) to help prevent scurvy among sailors on long voyages.

The Ming Dynasty “Floating Orchard” Ship:

During the early 15th century, when Admiral Zheng He l…[Read more]

The cognitive dissonance and suicidal ideation are amazing to behold.

Yes, I am still surprised that I am still stunned into bafflement at times by the cognitive dissonant statements that trickle down their enfeebled brains and dribble out of their mouths.

I usually have the thought “If I could only remember where I parked my damn spaceship so I…[Read more]

Enco the Chinese were way ahead of Europe until they were strangled by Confusionism. Is that a word? You know the guy. It was another sleep of reason and the masses going along with the current. I think it was known as the star fleet. And it was well before Magellan and Vasco de Gama et al. They knew about scurvy. They had a ship in the fleet that…[Read more]

Back in the mid 80’s I designed a searchable database* for the Dept. of Health in Westminster. It was used to pull info on the number of reported AIDS cases submitted by all the British Embassies around the world. The report from China read (I hope the official secrets act I took has expired!!) that there were 2 cases in China (out of a population…[Read more]

It is a horrible way to be conflicted. Are you, the queer for Palestine, going to be faithful to your religion of Jew hatred or are you going to be real about what they would do to you?

Sick fucking world. Sleep of reason and all of that jazz.

Enco,

I read about the history of China a long time ago. So i am more than a little shaky. But Chiang Kai Shek who we supported of course but many Chinese did not because they got shit from the communists and Mao’s forces had a bloody war killing some 2 million Chinese. And you have to examine antecedents before jumping to conclusions.

Just a few things.

The notion of Palestinians as an ancient people is false. Ancestry is from all over the Levant. Some who are known as Palestinians lived in and around Israel for centuries. Same for Jews. Others came there during British Mandate to work. There was a newspaper founded in 1932 in what was to become Israel. The Palestine Post. In…[Read more]

Strega,

Agreed. I must say having lived in NYC and South Florida, I found many Jewish folks to be some of the most interesting, intelligent, funny, creative, pragmatic, attractive, open-minded, and irreverent people ever. They roll with the punches. Most were atheists. Many travelled back and forth to Israel, in support.

I have little doubt that…[Read more]

Re the ‘starting point’ comment. This seems absurd to me, having been born and brought up in Europe, in a country that has thousands of years of history both good and bad.  History moves in waves, each ‘starting point’ having been triggered by earlier event crescendoes. You can’t just pick a reference point in history and call it the ‘starting…[Read more]

Unseen,

You are wrong on so many counts it is incredible. But you are not baiting me into it. No way. Honest brokers of opinions only. But you just keep reading and listening to garbage sources. Make sure you never have a thought of your own.

What a beautiful little girl and what a tragic life. Horror in living color. I just read accounts of Thai workers who were murdered by Hamas. Fucking horrifying how they cut their heads off with knives.

So you are young and naive. You were never taught critical thinking and you have classical liberal sentiments. (I do as well) Those professors…[Read more]

I think the Kibbutz is a great idea. Many Irish people worked on one for the summer back in the 70’s and 80’s. I have never met anyone who had a bad experience there.

I am sick of hearing from ignorant lefties who think that social media educates them and that their ill-informed opinions are of equal value to freethinkers who study the facts…[Read more]

Enco, i was not thinking of the communist rev. in China. Could be any place. But your take is a gross oversimplification. I oppose doctinaire thinking. Unfortunately we see the overwhelming numbers married to their ideology and incapable of analyzing their betrothed. Regurgitation of political rhetoric is the outer limit for the masses.…[Read more]

Enco,

I inadvertently wrote capitalism when i intended communism in relation to a dalliance.

So yeah communism has proven itself to be abhorrent. However and let me be concrete. Lets assume a famine, a bloody revolution. People starving to death and eating corpses. That happened during the Chinese revolution in fact. THAT may be the time to…[Read more]

“I’ll never understand the christian logic of hating Jews because they turned hay-zeus over for execution. Let’s set asides the lack of evidence of any of this, beyond accounts written in Koine Greek by cultists 40 years later. Did they not require a human sacrifice to be “saved”? They should be thanking the Jews for delivering god to himself…[Read more]

The following article is short and worth noting. Quoting from article, on Good Morning Britain “During a segment on the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, attended by King Charles, presenter Ranvir Singh stated: “Six million people were killed in concentration camps during the Second World War, as well as millions of others because t…[Read more]

Enco i made it through about half of Das Kapital. Not fun reading!

I am not in any way endorsing communism. Only saying that there are phases in which fledgling nations in exigent circumstances are or may be better served by a dalliance with capitalism than say a fucking ruthless dictator. Imposing from without and having no regard for the people…[Read more]
