Marsha Hunt, actress now aged 102, on her family: "I lucked into the most fortuitous, warm, constructive kind of family context imaginable. My father was a top scholar, a Phi Beta Kappa. My mother was a voice coach and…
The Middle-East was actually pretty Ok until the secular West decided to interfere and upset the balance of powers. As for harm more generally, historically religious wars are at 7% of the total. But it's also arguable…
How was what I wrote a 'flamewar'? And especially in the context of the anti-religious views that elsewhere were not flagged nor called flamewars. What's your agenda, Dang? Politics, religion, philosophy, these are…
A great deal of speculation in that article. Sounds more like psycotherapy ideas than real psychology/neuroscience. Meanwhile, let's look at the (paraphrased) claims: "Science is not compatible with religion." Yet the…
Veganism unavoidably implies a moral superiority where vegetarianism doesn't. That's pretty irritating. It also just doesn't mesh with most people's understanding of simple animals as simple and food-driven, not in any…
The gender gap is an IQ spread difference. Search "iq sexes" and look at the graphs. The average is the same (in most studies), but there are far more extremely dumb males and far more extremely intelligent males than…
I heard Fred Hoyle when he came to lecture at my school in the 80s (a prestigious, rich boys school). It was one of the few places willing to give him the time as his views were vaguely in line with Christian…
Aquisition/immersion learning is rapid. Thegovernment metrics are likely based on academic learning methods. Forget the books and turn on the radio and TV instead.
"Ultimately, homosexuality in humans is fine not because it's natural, but because we should, by default, let consenting adults do what they want together." Including adopting children? I don't think so. I didn't grow…
I saw a dog on heat being followed around by a cluster of dogs. One of them tried to hump her head. Animals have no idea what they're doing. Calling them 'homosexual' is highly presumptuous. A lot of dogs, for instance,…
Languages don't need to keep up with trends to stay used. But updating languages is the fun stuff; there won't be a problem with volunteers for that especially at universities. All the hard work has been done, unless an…
That argument applies to something like Linux. Here we are talking about a language and wrappers and an essentially completed framework (granted new ideas mean no framework is every completed). And unlike a google…
What do you mean by "burned by Dart 1.0"? Dart was rejected by the community it was aimed at, Javascripts devs (and for pretty dumb reasons, I don't have much respect for either Javascript or its devs). Google…
"The native population tends to have a lower birth rate also eroding the lead. Plus what is your point here? I cant think of a reasonable reason for even bringing it up." Lol! Sure you can't.
The win gap was at least 4%. (48 vs 52). Further, the native population was far higher pro Brexit. As for misinformation, I don't know any Brexiters who were voting based on Boris Johnson's obviously politically gamed…
Atheism has a long history of redefining terms. The OED changed from "To deny the Gods/God" to "To deny or disbelieve in the gods/God" The latter - disbelieve - fits the greek, but the former was the intended meaning by…
