Re: Romney on Pardoning Trump
I honestly don't see how the GOP escapes Trump's thrall before his death. Every GOP politician with a shred of integrity has stepped aside. The rest are simpleminded lickspittles.

Re: Trump's Religion vs Obama's Religion
*edit - I should explain myself with regard to Romney. I thought he had figured out universal healthcare, and I believed he could move us to that with good policy and little political damage since he is an R I'll tell you what... if Romney ran this cycle, I would be inclined to vote for him. He has...

Re: Trump's Religion vs Obama's Religion
The difference is that Obama isn't a career criminal that all his fans are ignoring, pretending he can do no wrong.
Plus, it's not pathetic to think Obama was a decent President. It doesn't make me think something traumatic happened to you when you were a kid. Big difference.

Re: Anti-Christian Magas
MAGA proves that claiming a belief in Jesus doesn't make anyone moral. It's been my experience that the opposite is likely true. If someone tells you they're a Christian, hide your wallet. That depends on what you believe to be true about Jesus and whether or not you yank scripture out of context. ...

Re: Florida woman who posed as 14-year-old to molest middle schooler faces additional child sex charges
I've never encountered anyone who put so much effort into defending an imbalance of power in a relationship. Maybe there is something we don't see. :( I'm certain that is the case, but if we waited to understand where everyone was coming from before we spoke, nobody would ever say anything. All we ...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?
"The age of the universe" is the age that would be measured by a co-moving observer—that is, by an observer for whom the expansion of the universe is equal in all directions. That kind of co-moving observer is a lot like the old Newtonian concept of an observer who is at absolute rest. And it's tru...

Re: Anti-Christian Magas
This MAGA Christian brags about giving counterfeit money to homeless people so they go to jail. He's "cleaning up the streets." You know, because that's what Jesus would do. MAGA proves that claiming a belief in Jesus doesn't make anyone moral. It's been my experience that the opposite is likely tr...

Re: Florida woman who posed as 14-year-old to molest middle schooler faces additional child sex charges
I honestly suspect that these days, more women than men commit statutory rape. I don't believe the 'honestly' bit. I honestly suspect DT obsesses over this topic way too much. I've never encountered anyone who put so much effort into defending an imbalance of power in a relationship. He might as we...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?
The glow of the "good ole days" tends to cloud how we look at our current time. I listened to someone (I really wish I could remember the reference) who was saying that studies show the "nostalgia of the good old days" happens to everyone who ages. Every generation feels like they came from a bette...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?
I think humans are living longer due to advances in medicine and especially dentistry. Plus, we're slowly learning the diets that promote life and which ones promote death. One thing I do want to ask Neil Tyson is, if time travels at different speeds all over the universe, how can we be sure the uni...
