I know, right?

:up: They only look out about a century, right?

It's changing in Russia right now. They're transitioning to a command economy. They will continue to export coal and gas because they're dependent on ...

To really halt excess CO2 production instead of just slowing it down would require some sort of global covenant: a new global religion, basically. It ...

Ok.

If you accidentally end up in Turkey, maybe you could visit Gobekli Tepe and take pictures.

It's time for the birds and the bees, Harry. First black woman on the SCOTUS! Yay!

Not really.

I know. Trump didn't care about human rights. That's why it's good to have actual laws.

We have schizophrenia.

Separating science from religion is a recent development. In Europe, Christianity disintegrated so that "religion" came to reference the conflict betw...

Isn't Zelensky the reason this is still going on? If he would have left the country, Ukraine would be part of Russia now, right?

:up:

Yes. Gotta keep that under wraps and pass for normal.

Like I said, your psyche is a wasteland.

There just kids. If they surrender, you shouldn't kill them.

:up: You're still crazy though.

That's because you're fucking crazy.

There's a labor shortage right now, so that's happened organically. Although inflation is high too, so it's hard day to day to get a handle on what's ...

It's more the sound of self-loathing, though. Maybe not you so much, but others.

The extreme right is the anti-status-quo bloc now. Unfortunately, they're as insane as they can possibly be about it. They're splitting the GOP., and ...

It's artificial though.

I think COPD is a bigger killer than lung cancer isn't it?

It's not academic that the USA and Canada didn't exist 500 years ago, when measles was the biggest killer of Native Americans.

You mean the elite?

They were still mass murderers. Sure, they don't have the scale of the two countries that top the list of mass murderers: USSR and China, but give the...

The Hittites were pretty cool. Egypt was in a class by itself. Obviously. Aztecs, though. Talk about mayhem. :grimace:

I don't have any objections. I didn't really get why we were talking about freeloading. However, I feel as though yout DNA might be dispersed a little...

Oh. OK.

Right, so it's not

If the sanctions were supposed to undermine Putin's popularity, they don't seem to have done that. If anything, the Russian elite is more closely tied...

It doesn't look like selfishness has been deselected.

Plus, at this point, the real issue of concern is what the sanctions are about to do to the Russian society. They're set to run Russia into the ground...

I think it would be fruitful to ask why Ukraine wanted to join NATO. Is there some path Russia could have taken that would have made Ukraine happy to ...

I'm not a biblical scholar either. "?????" can be translated as either eagle or vulture. Vulture fits the meaning of the sentence better, so most cont...

You were quoting the King James Version. It's got a lot of mistranslations in it.

I think the situation is more complicated than that, but I'm thinking we probably can't discuss that.

Yes, I guess so. He actually was pretty cool.

Jesus never claims to be the son of God in the gospels. It's said of him (in Matthew, I think).

Benkei! You know too well how China deals with destabilizing forces. They re-educate. They do exactly the same things they did during the their revolu...

:up:

There was this one time where God zapped it into some pieces of stone, whereupon the guy carrying them threw them down on the ground and busted them. ...

Jesus' answer was that all of the law means one thing: have love. The Neoplatonists continued that theme with: "Love and do what you will." The basic ...

It hurts to think of women I know being raped. I just extrapolate out from there. It's a feeling with a "no" at the center of it.

I've long thought the solution to climate change is a new global religion. The binding and what not.

They're huge. It's awful. I got off of processed foods a while back and then discovered how the whole American scene is geared toward obesity. As alwa...

I don't think you understand what I was asking, but I think I do get it now.
