"You wrote that “god is not a religion.” That doesn’t make much sense. The definition of religion is a belief in and worship of a personal supernatural (outside of nature) god or gods. You can't...

I glanced at a post below and have noticed that Dodge has already mentioned the IMF report. I suppose that it's not the first reference on the thread, and there should be more since these reports...

The IMF is addressing climate change in a most rigorous fashion, and if there's money to be made turning lemons into Koolaid then we can continue drinking up like there's no tomorrow.

Dodge,

Perhaps you might recall the Ayn Rand discussion I initiated back on the SPLC thread over a year ago. It rapidly resulted in an exercise of futility, of far as I was concerned. If my...

Dodge,

I find your practice of gaining traction (by whimsically constructing rhetorical questions to manipulate a provocation) to be boring, and do not apologize that I haven't the luxury to...

For anyone vaguely informed, over the past decade NPR has become (not so subtly) hijacked by this nation's Oligarchic faction.

How can any "unbiased" news agency be true to their mission when the...

In an effort to show good "will", I add the following as a contribution to this thread. As one can see, even the "experts" aren't immune from incorrect hypothesis which result from human foibles.

I will expose myself to the risk of breaking one of FN's "rules" by interjecting the following Dodge:

I can educate myself with this topic far more effectively by exposing myself to venues such...

Josh,
and with all due respect-

Once again, the actions of the forum appear to condone the same motus operandi of some of its members: there's a glaring coincidence between the closing of SC...

Hi Shadowcat,

I walked away for a couple of days to let things clear, both internally and externally. I have only now read your post. And what a heartfelt and validating post it is for yours...

To Dodge,
My first instinct is make this post as indignant and harsh as socially acceptable. Information has been made available about recent, dubious ongoing with respect to the moderator's...

For those following the hydrolic fracking that oil companys employ, and the mounting evidence of earthquakes being created from the activity, I have come up with a theory.

Could it be possible...

BIG UPS TO SHADOWCAT AND SAM!

(Whatever your flavor of religion is this week.)

You have made my day. :)

Message received!

In many of the higher echelons of academia, a 95%er is simply considered "good", and in no way "gifted". That occurs around an IQ of perhaps 150, give or take a few brain cells. I'm totally...

Greeting returned Shadowcat,

I don't get out of the house much these days! Seriously, it's been an epidemic in my world these days, and a major distraction is what the doctor had ordered for me. ...

Dodge,

Due to your self imposed state of separation from the super set of the bourgeoisie, there's this little social convention that may have slipped your awareness called "consensus". It's when...

Salutations SGNG,

Excellent examples. The committing of such faux pas shows certainly betrays one's class.

But the obvious must be visited from time to time. :rolleyes:

Dodge,

Let us be in agreement on this point: All the diatribe has been exhausted.

Now, to continue further would require a serious detraction. You should recall the dynamics of this forum in...

Dodge,

IMAO, a prime example of what (I find) is commenting that falls somewhere between superficial to sarcastic. Furthermore, any intention towards some clarification is obviously lacking. I'll...

OK Stage,

I must thank you for giving me the important kernel to reconstruct the popcorn trail. :)

It has been relayed to me in a PM that the "New Josh" is not only new, but an obvious Trojan...

To the contrary, the very appearance of your post "out of nowhere" is all the qualification needed, SD. Now, if you don't mind, I was looking for the chess boards, not checkers. :)

I missed you...

Smyrna, my attempt to PM you was futile. Like that came as a great surprise. So here's a smoke signal until I get details.

So, just in case your eyes just happenstance across this text, I have...

In their world, they compulsively validate only that which they know is errant. Hence, their vehement attacks are made to mask the duplicate efforts.

Smyrna is Banned?

Have the NewAge...

Smyrna,

Some have proven over and over a superior ability to achieve the "selective memory" status when overextending their own agenda- beyond credibility it can be added.

Good slam dunk.
...

Josh,

When I've been away for a few weeks, I admittedly (attempt) to read a few posts before jumping in. I usually fail at the quest, and this time have ended up putting a keyboard in my mouth.
