  1. Re:Big Wikipedia Bang - Identifying pseudoscience on 'Alternative Medicine' Clinic Attempts To Silence Critics · · Score: 1

    Two cardinal rules of the pseudo-science method.

    2. Everything is related to everything.

  2. Re:Kick'em all out on Debt Reduction Super Committee Fails To Agree · · Score: 1

    The local parties(the one that's not very, very, very, very, very, very silly) should try to form up coalitions.

    Not sure how diverse local political elections and how ambitious the smaller parties( thinking of more then just Green, constitution, and libertarian party here) are.

    But i think if parties on county levels, form up to win state seats, they can then build up more rep and offer themselves as a serious alternative to the status quo, and then maybe merge officially.

    Maybe a rallying points for the minute parties with a specific interest and ideology could be one the three major third parties. Call them them the nexus parties or something.
    Of course, this won't work if Ideological dogmas gonna reign supreme, needs to be about sharing interests and making concessions...in short in needs to be about politics, not Red .vs Blue tantrums.

    So just solve locals issues, then regional issues, then state issues...THEN maybe people remember you when the federal elections are in.

    The germans also had in mind to carry a "quick decisive victory", even if it meant going through Belgium.

    You do know what Intelligent design is DON'T YOU!

    Its the concept/hunt for a higher powers design in THE MATERIAL WORLD! aka "conformation bias: The game".
    They use their preferences to tailor the facts/evidence to their preferred narrative.

    Haught does NOT! He actually understands science. He knows that the concept of god(s) is not falsifiable, and if it was it would make faith useless.

    I am an atheist, but i can honestly say that some religious concepts are more logical and honest then some other religious concepts, and can still be compatible(does not interfere to me more blunt ) with human endevours in new discoveries.

    MAD sometimes use stillshots from movies and adds their humorous quip onto them.
