Funny how I already said something very much like this.
July 21, 2018 at 14:57
It is painfully obvious @"JeffJo" that you have not read the thread and as a result don't understand where these arguments are coming from.
July 21, 2018 at 12:44
There was an entire section of the thread in which we debated the role of Y. Clearly @"JeffJo" you didn't read it.
July 21, 2018 at 12:37
I have already comment on all of this, read the thread. Don't just lie about reading it, actually read it.
July 21, 2018 at 12:35
Notice how I have yet to post another thread. I have another problem lined up, but with the mods hacking out relevant content and the general performa...
July 21, 2018 at 12:31
I don't think @"JeffJo" even understands the other argument.
July 21, 2018 at 12:22
I specifically said that my simulation is not about finding expected results as that entire argument is flawed. Which I pointed out in a different pos...

There is a recognized difference between gender and sex, one is biological while the other is considered learned. I have yet to see evidence that sugg...
July 21, 2018 at 12:03
What? I never said any such thing, also you misspelled my name.
July 21, 2018 at 11:30
Well, I do also have the benefit of personal experience being gay in our society, and I have also spent an incredible amount of time studying and disc...
July 21, 2018 at 03:59
That was the point. To turn the argument back onto itself.
July 21, 2018 at 03:46
Why would you even edit out the fact that I think my solution is correct? Am I not allowed to have that view?
July 21, 2018 at 03:40
There are probably a lot more gay people than people realize, and by oppressing them society is not letting them fill their evolutionary roles.
July 21, 2018 at 03:35
This needs to be cleared up here. I have never lived horrible abuse and discrimination due to my sexual preference. That came from the bigotry and hat...
July 21, 2018 at 03:32
That is because it is homophobia that is contrary to evolution.
July 21, 2018 at 03:26
No, I didn't like it. I have observed that a predilection for male intimacy can serve to deepen social bonding even between a pair of males who are no...

I never truly engage a bigot, but I use them.
July 21, 2018 at 03:02
I am not as young as some may have concluded. I am not old, but neither am I young. I am middle age.
July 21, 2018 at 02:59
I was put in a mental ward for "unhealthy sexual desires". The doctors prescribed me medication that had the "beneficial side effect of reducing sex d...

It is better than your black swan story.
July 21, 2018 at 02:53
Going a little chop happy on my posts there.
July 21, 2018 at 02:46
In the social paradigm of majorities and minorities it is true that both face prejudice, but open of these two is swimming up stream against much fast...

People need simple answers, they like them.
July 21, 2018 at 02:04
An entire society sitting around debating if you are a mistake or not, all your life over and over. It never ends. No wonder homosexual youths have a ...
July 21, 2018 at 02:02
Personally, I think it is deeply offensive calling for gays to legitimize their presence, as if they have to defend their right to even exist.
July 21, 2018 at 01:50
They use to leave children behind when it became too much of a burden. I would assume they also left the old behind.
July 21, 2018 at 01:46
And what is the survival advantage of a species that breeds out of control until it no longer can support the community? We are at 7 billion people an...

The message was never intended for him.
July 21, 2018 at 01:02
How do you know?
July 20, 2018 at 23:34
How is this any different than a white racist saying blacks are less evolved or a misogynistic male claiming a woman's place is in the kitchen? It is ...
July 20, 2018 at 23:11
I am happy with my correct results.
July 20, 2018 at 21:35
@"JeffJo" I have already stated I am done debating this problem. So I am sorry if you have an issue with my correct solution.
July 20, 2018 at 15:42
Or I could just not worry about an outcome of zero since it has zero impact.
July 20, 2018 at 15:35
July 19, 2018 at 22:19
I am well aware 0 was a possible outcome, the code just runs better without the loops, and it was not significant enough to care. Sorry my simulation ...
July 19, 2018 at 21:36
Feel free to look at my simulations on page 26 and point out specifics.

In the 50s and 60s the KKK claimed it was protecting traditional family values to recruit new members and push their views. Does that phrase sound fam...

The goal of "Trump derangement syndrome" is to negate a reasonable voice of concern by distracting people with a caricature.
July 19, 2018 at 11:46
None, we are totally problem free. Now back on track. . . You are pretending your binary interpretation of the political spectrum is anything other th...
July 19, 2018 at 02:52
So then what you are saying is that all our current problems were caused by the Right.
July 19, 2018 at 02:43
You are evading. The truth is, you have a shallow and narrow perspective, in which you stereotype and generalize people based on your subjective inter...
July 19, 2018 at 01:45
If your best summation of the difference between the Left and the Right is overly simplistic ambiguous colloquialisms then you are not being very prac...
July 19, 2018 at 01:24
Yes, it is. When you judge what is "practical" you are judging that state based your personal standards.
July 19, 2018 at 01:21
Remember that the Right was so upset with Obama's election that they tried to deny he was even an American. In fact Trump was a big part of that effor...
July 18, 2018 at 23:20
Practicality is relative.
July 18, 2018 at 23:11
It is just a ploy to distract people from real concerns. If nothing else Trump plays the 24 hour news cycle well and he rather people be talking about...
July 18, 2018 at 22:53
Phase One: Push a phony condition Phase Two: Get people talking about it. Phase Three: Call legitimated concerns Trump derangement syndrome. Mass stra...
July 18, 2018 at 22:33
It is not a real condition, so I am not sure why it should be treated as such.
July 18, 2018 at 22:27
You didn't look at them all. If you had you would had noticed I raised the same objections. Then you would have noticed I simulated a data set based o...
