lizardskull··on Scorching Summer in Europe Signals Long-Term Climate Changes
Actually I did take a moment and within the first 39 minutes of research I discovered laziness or a lie on Obama’s part and from there I could not help but wonder what other forms of misinformation must exist.

“Very little is actually about execution, because the execution's primary purpose is to represent the idea. It's the actual idea that contains the values.” This quote from the article is a strange reflection of what the world of software development teaches.

CNN, the guardian, and the Washington Post could also work under that principle after all the misinformation and falsehoods they have published this year.

Unless you are building a time machine, what are the other distractions more beneficial to improving the present than using that precious time to consern yourself with the far past mistakes made by humans?

I am about to go put myself at risk right now with a casual partner. I believe in a another simulation where porn did not exist I’d be snuggled up and listening to some snores of my beautiful wife and newborn. But it exists and grows.

lizardskull··on Craigslist takes personals sections offline in response to FOSTA
The craiglist Casual Encounters section destroys lives. It laid waste to mine. There have been many tear filled nights spent wondering who would I be now if I could delete that site from my history. A string of uncountable months searching for one new sexual partner after another. The principle expense paid includes a ledger of a life of total neglect for those who felt true love for me. And then the hot pattern takes hold again. The emails pile up of mostly men wanting pixels and sizes as a small part of my mind tells me to stop. But the fingers keep clicking. One blue link after another until I find what I do not need. Sex is a fire which begins to burn out of control for some of us. I cannot be the only one since the act takes at least two.

99 cent here in South Georgia. The alligator tail is still ten dollars a pound, but we are getting that as close to zero as possible. When you do not have much to spend, you are thankful for cheap food.

lizardskull··on James Damore has an above decent chance of winning his legal case against Google
That is a good question. What are the labels the right uses to marginalize the opposition? Perhaps new words will need to be invented to describe people who are the classical definition of racist and white supremacist.

what adjectives would you find for the following comment....

'The study findings of increased prefrontal cortex blood flow in women compared to men may explain why women tend to exhibit greater strengths in the areas of empathy, intuition, collaboration, self-control, and appropriate concern. The study also found increased blood flow in limbic areas of the brains of women, which may also partially explain why women are more vulnerable to anxiety, depression, insomnia, and eating disorders.

lizardskull··on Increased blood flow in areas of the brain in women
"The study also found increased blood flow in limbic areas of the brains of women, which may also partially explain why women are more vulnerable to anxiety, depression, insomnia, and eating disorders." That is the claim James Damore made in his argument.

lizardskull··on Nation of Reason: Coming Out of the Religious Closet Together (on Atheism)
I thought one point of the essay was to express your belief that humanity needs to create a new 'community that is based on logic, reason, science, and compassion.' My point is those qualities already exist in the church I attend.

Bacon was silly on my part.

Another point I found in the opening paragraph places the blame of many conflicts in the world on Christian beliefs. If you see someone killing another in the name of Christ then they taking teaching from a confused source.

From my perspective the quality of life for us is ever increasing. The cause behind these improvements can be found within the influence religious doctrines have held on the minds of each successive generation. If our human nature is naturally so good how do we explain all the suffering we subject each other to everyday?

It is wonderful that Ben Fathi is so loving of humankind that he would take the time to write such a 'loooong' post as you worded it when the author could have used that time to do so many other things. I believe there are a few misunderstandings in this writing that could use a little light. To conserve time, I will stick to the first paragraph.

Christians have a much more sophisticated view of the universe than the author must realize. Also, there are some flawed thoughts held by the author concerning history as it is recorded. The idea that during the Middle Ages Christians destroyed scientific progress is not supported by historical research. Since you mention the scientific method, Roger Bacon, a Franciscan friar and the father of the modern scientific method existed during this time period. Comparing what is going on now with the followers of Mohammed to the Crusades unfortunate shows the author should spend some time studying both. As for the creation of a global community based on logic, reason, science, and compassion you have just described the the life of powerful follower of Jesus.
