As if you could kill time without injuring eternity.

A moment isn’t precious because it will be gone. It’s precious because it is what it is. In the Block Universe, time and eternity are not “things” that can be harmed.

“If there is no fundamental particle… no beginning and no end… there is no reality as we intuit.”

Yes, correct. That is exa…[Read more]

As if you could kill time without injuring eternity.

You’d be thoreau.ing it away. Every moment is precious. Not if it is blocked. Locked and loaded or blocked and unloaded, loaded and fired.

If there is no fundamental particle, irreducible and finite, no fixed location, no absolute measurement, no beginning and no end it follows there is no…[Read more]

Writ of habeas corpus.

Corpus Christ.

It hangs in the balance. Ideas that central figures must honor or else!

The fox guarding the henhouse and the Great Writ. Yeah, a Republic if you can keep it…..

The paramilitary murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti is exactly what arbitrary force without effective oversight looks like in practice.

This just in.

Donald Trump was caught telling the truth. Shock to his central nervous system has resulted in his placement in intensive care. Is expected to make a full recovery and resume his mendacious cant.

Don’t knock sexual repression. It is great for creating teenage and early twenties suicide bombers.

Yes, it is all in the data but but the truth is likely more nuanced. States with higher percentages of evangelical Protestants, theists, and biblical literalists tend to have higher overall frequencies of Google searches for the term “porn.”

Similar work connecting religiosity and web searches found a link between state-level religiosity and sea…[Read more]

Your query is so very…

Adam Kinsinger served as a savvy and (relatively) good-hearted Republican Congressman. He and Liz Cheney had the gumption to be the only GOP to serve on the Jan 6 select committee. Kinzinger was one of ten House GOP to vote for Trump’s second impeachment.

Also taken from Wikipedia: ‘On February 4, 2022, the Republican National Committee called…[Read more]

Pope,

I like how that guy in the vid rhymes Trump and chump.

It is also kind of amusing he sees Trump as the most imbecilic and narcissistic and yet he says he is gonna die soon and have to answer to his maker. hahaha

Ya know it has occurred to me over and over that not one reporter who questions Trump has the gumption to ask him to justify…[Read more]

Enco,

Who is Auerbach? You are not talking about Red are ya? The all time great basketball coach of the Boston Celtics who would light a stogie during game when the issue was decided or a foregone conclusion. Would also take out his buddies weekly to his favorite Chinese restaurant where he held court and entertained his guests.

I doubt that is…[Read more]

WHOA! This is something to remember! I hope Trump stays up all night on social media for this gem…

The rationale switched from Theological irrationality to Pseudoscientific irrationality.

Yes, that is a good point and a good distinction. I agree that Classical liberalism did not generate antisemitism. It was probably a 1,000 years too late for that. Classical liberalism attacked the fusion of church and state and religious privilege or legal…[Read more]

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]
