Re: Traveling Back in Time

Laws should be made with consideration to our collective population. Our elected officials (local straight up to the White House) are meant to be representatives of us. ALL of us. Exactly. I don't know where these dead things are coming from. Can you explain further? Dead things aren't coming from ...

Re: Traveling Back in Time

I'll say this again (in a different way) to add clarity (and I feel the need to do this because I've calmed down since writing that post): when I say "religious nuts" I'm talking about the specific people who don't consider the repercussions for everyone in society when they try to enforce their bra...

Traveling Back in Time

I think I'd like to visit Arizona. Apparently, it's 1846 there. How exciting. If anyone is curious (I doubt it, but on the off chance someone might wonder) why I've taken up the fight against religion after having abandoned it for so long, it's because all these unverified claims are the premise beh...

Re: doubtingthomas’s topics MEGATHREAD

Some Schmo called me a creepy predator for no reason This right here is reason enough to never respond seriously to DT. If he can't find the reason I called him a creepy predator in this 100+ page thread, he clearly posts without actually thinking about what people are telling him. Over, and over, ...

Re: doubtingthomas’s topics MEGATHREAD

Okay, so the answer to my question is "yes." Here's a revelation: Regardless of what society says, young girls DON'T WANT TO DATE YOU. Even if everyone on this message board--and society in general--suddenly changed their minds and decided that it's O.K. for older men to date young girls, young gir...

It's wondrous experiences like this eclipse that make me sad I'm eventually going to die.
I feel this way about potentially missing a 49er Super Bowl Championship, should one happen after I'm gone.

Re: Eclipse

I find myself amused that such a completely insubstantial event should be so striking and memorable. It was after all a passing shadow. Heh. I've never really thought about an eclipse creating a huge shadow across the face of the earth (as opposed to one object blocking the light of another), but o...

Re: An odd case of liberal intellectual honesty on COVID

It never ceases to amaze me how much Trumplicans actually hate free market capitalism, and the fruits it bears. It just took a Democrat being President for them to realize it... although, they naturally just blame the Democrat for the entire system. Because, that makes sense. Negative emotion imped...

Re: doubtingthomas’s topics MEGATHREAD

Or society should simply stay out of our dating lives. Hold the phone. . . you think SOCIETY is what's keeping young girls from wanting to date you?? Well, it is a cultural thing to avoid dating creepy predators... isn't it? I mean, movies, television, novels... they're all painting a picture of ba...

Re: doubtingthomas’s topics MEGATHREAD

It might be easier to illustrate my point with simple numbers. Lets say there are 1000 men in the world. 70% (or 700 men) are 25 or older, and 30% (300 men) are younger. Let's next say that from these 1000 men, 100 assaults were committed, 46% under 25, the rest are over. That means that 300 men com...
