Can you touch on the Hammurapi (however you spell it) and its lack of animal food prohibition (or as far as I can remember, pork at least was not prohibited)? > It deepened my faith but I must say most are terrified at…
And it's weird how people bring up the idea of an elevator to the moon more often than they bring up putting cars to run on rails. They could be 100% self-driving that way, and accidents would probably be nil.
> That young white men feel entitled to shoot people when their lives don't work out (and apparently others don't) If I said that Jews feel entitled to slander people and call them racist when their arguments about the…
> How does it hurt men, hurt competition, for women to have their own prize? This has already been answered and I'd like to hear your rebuttal. It hurts men and competition by devaluing the prizes. To quote jstanley…
What the mainstream corporate media in America and the American Psychological Association have in common is they both spread lies and confusion through their social-engineering efforts. Something else they have in…
Sometimes it does. Fight fire with fire, an eye for an eye, history is replete with references to common sense refuting what you are saying.
Another sacred artifact in Science is WWII gas chambers. Fred Leuchter (manufacturer of equipment for gas executions), Nicholas Kollerstrom (Science Historian) and Germar Rudolf (Chemist) amongst others, were all…
And yet you and other commenters keep getting downvoted because many old-time HN'ers with the ability to downvote seem to have a hard time coming to grips with the fact that men and women have different capabilities.…
How is it derailing the conversation? Are we keeping you from having your arguments in other branches of the comment section? Why should there be a section for people who want to talk about the aspects you want to talk…
> I do think that legislation should be avoided if it's not necessary. In other words: if legislation.necessary? then enact else avoid. > On the other hand, if an issue is important and legislation can get the job done,…
Honestly, that is in the same level of saying that you doubt the consensus on Evolution. I say this not to disparage, but you are simply ignorant about the subject. If you read about Psychometrics and perhaps work by…
I really meant reify, as in "turn an abstract thing into a marketable thing". Monetize would mean something else. > Is this really a workable view of criminality and justice? It worked for 400 years in Medieval Iceland.…
Again I must take offense at your misconstruing what I said. If I actually had said that Jews are trying to destroy the world, you'd be able to quote that. In fact I do not think Jews are trying to destroy the world,…
On the other hand, there's a consensus in the scientific community that IQ is the best predictor of outcome in life, despite the factors you've mentioned. In other words, all being taken into consideration, it turns out…
Thank you, dang, I appreciate the concrete guidelines. I was actually thinking of emailing you over this. I promise you I will try to behave as you have proposed here. I think those are fair guidelines. In fact I very…
What did you expect from making schools Gun-Free Zones? Did you expect criminals to obey the sign? How many school shootings do you think we would have per year if schools were full of security guards? How many bank…
I take issue with your accusing me of trolling on the other comment. I am being playful but I am not trolling. What I am talking about is a concerted effort that began with Psychoanalysis in the beginning of the 20th…
The movement for the better brain started much before half a century ago. If you study Jewish history you will find out they have been doing this all along. For instance, as a very literate culture, they would encourage…
Let's put together a bunch of what you said, because you are indeed so close to guessing, and I don't doubt you can, as a fellow anarchist. Behavior patterns of Group X (that is then passed on to other groups): - being…
Who started it? Who is the group X that started the routine of saying "we are group X and we are special and isolated from the rest of human kind because of our unique suffering and/or significance"? I'll give you a…
If you're being serious then I'll give you a serious answer. Exempli gratia, let's pretend I was raped. I should be able to reify my victimhood and sell it to a lawyer, thereby transferring to that lawyer the right to…
You're committing the Tu Quoque fallacy. Also, questions are not arguments. Did you mean to say, that actually instilling a sense of civic responsibility in foreign nationals is easy? If so, please argue this case.
I'm pretty sure pmlnr meant "the only way to peacefully/morally force companies is by spending your money somewhere else". We all know violence and threat (what you suggest) works. Some of us are trying to decrease the…
