racocn8 comments on May 4, 2020:
Religion causes a broad variety of behavioral disorders and personality disorder. Whether it's PTSD, sexual molestation, the constant drumbeat of hate against others, etc., the effect is to disable various cognitive functions. Thus, religionists may lack empathy, lie a lot, act out, project their weaknesses on others, etc. Religion screws with their heads, and then they latch onto like-minded sick people. Perhaps religions damages people because damaged people are easier to manipulate and control.

racocn8 comments on May 4, 2020:
We may never know why Trump failed so utterly. As most notorious pathological liar in history, nothing he says can be reliable. Either: 1) Trump was continuing his treasonous dismantling from the inside under the directions of Putin; or, 2) He imagined that it would be better for the pandemic to 'wash over the country' as he once said. He may not have know how a fully unleashed pandemic would undermine the economy and his reelection. 3) He sought to profit off the the pandemic and skim testing contracts for domestic companies, rather than buy those available through WHO. However, his favored companies couldn't get their tests to work properly, and it became a fiasco that was so frustrating that he just handed the mess over to Pence (Who is equally incompetent). Other scenarios?....

Not really. Trump Jr. only endorsed the notion that Tara Reade could be credible, whereas Pelosi, Gillibrand, Harris, Abrams, Whitmer, Klobuchar & Hillary were bowled over by the stench of political manipulation. Put simply, Reade's grotesque embellishment of her complaint from last year is so over-the-top as to be easily disregarded. The only real question is whether Trump or some of the Bernie Bros put her up to it. She is a desperate, pathetic pawn. Like Trump Jr.

racocn8 comments on May 2, 2020:
Other countries have gone through a similar shift where a major share of residents lose their allegiance. Maybe Covid will speed it up a bit too. Many people will worry that the loss of declared affiliation will mean a rise in immorality. The unswerving allegiance of the Evangelicals to Trump proves they refuse to be offended by the most vile, degenerate and corrupt politician in American history. So much for Christian morality! The loyalty of each Evangelical to Trump proves they will ditch the morality their religion teaches; and then enact fawning fealty to a personalty cult. Gross!! And they are proud to be deplorable! They embrace the term. Eff'd up! No one expects Christianity to go away. But, in a millennium, perhaps Jesus will join Wotan, Zeus and Horus. Granted, something just as silly would likely replace it. And then there's Islam, Hinduism, etc. Perhaps humans will advance and fix whatever flaw it is that allows unlimited belief. Or, we might even learn a Truth. In the meantime, we should continue our efforts to support science education and critical thinking.
Biden to Discuss Tara Reade allegations tomorrow morning on Morning Joe.
racocn8 comments on May 2, 2020:
What is the motivation here? Is it Reade's fascination and adoration of Putin? Was she frustrated that Biden won over the Progressives she supported, Sanders and Warren? Or did she flirt at Biden and Biden rejected her? Or a combination of them all? Can this complaint be seen as a final bid for justice, or does it represent yet another political hit job like we've seen with Gary Hart, Al Franken, and Robert Mueller? Sanders campaign exec's have immediately called on Biden to withdraw from the race, even though Biden could be completely innocent. What is Tara Reade's explanation for waiting until Biden got the nomination to 'elaborate' on her complaint from 2019? Notably, Tara Reade's absurdly crude and lurid description cannot possibly be substantiated. Claiming to be manually penetrated with no previous flirtation is not just out of character for Biden, it's out of character for anyone, except a psycho like Trump. Someone like Biden would never do shit like that unless they were drunk or they had paid for it. Does anyone imagine that Tara Reade concocted this lie on her own? That kind of ugliness can only be coached. Still, for Ms. Reade to put it out there signifies a special kind of mental illness, the depravity of false accusation. It is the infamous reality that a few women engage in false accusations, and these false accusations are the bane of women who really have been treated unfairly, and want justice.
Why Religion Is Not Going Away and Science Will Not Destroy It
racocn8 comments on May 1, 2020:
Bull. Last sentence: "Its advocates would be well advised to stop fabricating an enemy out of religion, or insisting that the only path to a secure future lies in a marriage of science and secularism. " Only a liar would claim that advocates of science are fabricating that religion is its enemy. No fabrication is needed; Creationism is still religious nonsense. As for insisting that science and secularism not be married, just what non-secular (religious) system should be married to science??? Yikes. Is that like Sharia Law? Elsewhere the author weaves in the cowardly insecurity of a religious believer. It's textbook cognitive dissonance. And yes, the US is a hold-out in terms of a majority of citizens identifying with established religion, but that majority is moving towards minority status at a good clip. We are approaching the maximum slope of the hysteresis curve right now.

racocn8 comments on Apr 30, 2020:
40 years ago, my Dad gave me a really cool watch. It was a wrist-watch with an alarm and glow-in-the-dark spots around the face. These spots were, I believe, a mixture of phosphor and radium. I was working at the Wistar Institute and had a chance to check the watch out with a Geiger counter. The underside had a plainly higher amount of radioactivity, but above the face, the counter took off. I was taken aback at how hot the thing was. Not long after, I left the watch in my bag while I played racquetball. After my session, the watch was mercifully missing. I was glad to be rid of the thing. (In the lab, they had a big Erlenmeyer flask to filter and collect liquids that contained tritium and other isotopes. I noticed that no one wanted to empty the thing, and that the level got up to the vacuum line. I checked that out and found that the whole lab vacuum system was radioactively contaminated. Years later at the Arco Quality Control Lab, they detected high amounts of mercury in the basement air. Technicians would dump mercury into the drains, out-of-sight, out-of-mind (After blowing out a manometer). Problem was, the mercury wouldn't go back up out of the drain and sat there until the drain rusted out. The mercury plopped into the mud underneath the building. They had to excavate to try to recapture it and contaminate someplace else.)

1. Remember, it's not the popular vote that counts, but the Electoral College. 2. The Republicans have rigged the election every way they can. They don't have to get away with it. They just have to win, and Trump's Justice Dept will back them up (not prosecute). They will get away with it! 3. The real question is what the U.S. citizenry do when faced with a (another) patently stolen election. Last time, Obama, the supposed wonderful leader, let Trump and Putin get away with it. Hey, nobody blinked when the bankers stole 40% of the equity saved up by those earning less than $200K per year. Not one person went to jail after 2009. Trump's team have learned that lesson.

racocn8 comments on Apr 28, 2020:
Perhaps it was Voltaire who rejected atheism because he worried that too many people in the population would behave much worse if they weren't fearful of a hell? The threat of immoral or unethical acts committed by unbelievers must be balanced against the damage religion does to each person. As fewer people identify with established religion, we should soon see if this leads to a corresponding increase in immoral/unethical behavior. This shift toward agnosticism has been seen in other countries, so the answer is probably out there.

Of course, some means is needed to tear their attention away from GRU posts. Then some termites for the sticks up their arses. But, as far as voting, forget it. They won't vote.

What do you/people think about China's role in this epidemic?
racocn8 comments on Apr 21, 2020:
The media in both China and the U.S. are severely controlled and limited by their governments. While China may not have been forthright, the U.S. had intelligence on the ground. That intelligence was relayed and ignored by Trump. For months. Whatever shortcomings are made against the Chinese pale against Trump's ongoing refusal to lead an effective response. The daily refusal to pursue testing is treasonous, even as it works against the economic recovery Trump pretends that he wants. If Trump really wanted a good economy, we'd have testing. So, Trump wants this pandemic to be as bad as possible, and only the state governors can mitigate it. They are utterly on their own. Shame on the military for not forcibly removing the traitors in our midst, and for not volunteering more tangibly to protect our nation. They should be forcing the issue to demonstrate Trump's true intentions. (But thank you to the Army Corps of Engineers for the instant hospitals). Shame, shame, shame on China for continuing to allow the wet markets. A lot of the animals are stuffed full of other covids just waiting for an opportunity.

racocn8 comments on Apr 20, 2020:
Readjusting the wealth disparity is hugely desirable, but how to do it? You could raise the tax rate to 70% without denting the wealthy lifestyle. Also, most of the money is inherited. Warren's ideas have merit, but only if they can be enacted, and there she has the same problem as Bernie. Just try to grade Biden against Trump as being suitable for being president. I would rate Trump at something below 10 while Biden gets something over 55. It's a shitty system that promulgates these guys. Mainly, though, is that Bernie would be around 65 if he could deliver a blue Senate. Without it, he sinks to below 50. Liz isn't far behind.

racocn8 comments on Apr 17, 2020:
(In the past, Christians felt the mere existence of atheists or other religionists worked as a repudiation of their beliefs. We now have more active forms of atheism because being atheist is less dangerous to your health.) Christianity engenders a broad variety of psychological pathologies, paranoia being prominent. The paranoid variety love to make up lies about all those who refuse fealty to white, straight, male dominance. Among those lies is this: ' Atheists hate God and deny He exists. ' While it may be true that a minority of atheists claim no god exists, most simply don't believe in any of the gods. Again, the common definition of atheists as denying god exists is the definition promulgated by the Christians, not by atheists. Your profile says you love critical thinking. Please, spend some time critiquing your text, fix the mistakes and be succinct. You lose most of your audience if you just cut and paste a crude mass.

Christianity has never been more than a big slimy cult. Science proved it to be utterly false 150 years ago. That means those who still believe it at this point are psychotics, and potentially dangerous. It's one thing to have your own opinion, but to persist in spreading known lies should be criminal, or at least deserving of close monitoring. These people should be deprogrammed, against their will if necessary. It is a scourge to allow them to brainwash their children; that is psychological child abuse. How to remedy the situation becomes the question.

racocn8 comments on Apr 14, 2020:
And where is the wisdom or truth within the Sermon On The Mount? The words have become familiar like Christmas carols, but where is the underlying take-home meaning? Be merciful? Be righteous? Be peacemakers? Be pure at heart? Historically, Christians are famous for disregarding these notions. How about: 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits. It is Christianity itself that should be thrown into the fire, were we to judge it by its own measure. These epigrams sound nice. However, in their absolutism, generate the exact opposite results from their intent. Those who insist others believe the same or die negate the original flavor. Again: 13 “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet. - - Again, Christianity fails its own test. Christians are anything but Christian, and, truth be told, neither of those paths, Christianity nor what Christians practice, have salient merit! No fiction, no matter how florid, becomes true. That is the take-home.

I became aware of the conflict between evolution and western religion early on. When I was young, I was particularly struck by the precise correspondence between the leg bones of my dog compared to my own leg. The religionist claim that humans were not animals just didn't jibe. In college, the biology class used a chart that showed the number of amino acid differences in Cytochrome C from various species and how the number of those differences closely matched the distances in the evolutionary tree branches. Perfect evidence of imperfection, and epiphany. Wonderfully, that was just the start. Evolution is science's Old Testament, and physics is the New Testament. And this time, they don't contradict each other.

Scary to see so many deluded people in one place and time. -A haunted hayride ended up in the loft of a barn where the lead wacko shook a gory leg bone at us to scare us into submission. Someone had a squirt gun that distracted the mood. -Going to a Hillel social where a few young ladies knelt in prayer. They seemed so nice up to that point. -Went to a cult meeting in midtown Long Beach where a psychic had built a following. The members dressed in uniforms closely resembling Star Trek uniforms. The leader gave quick readings to whoever lined up. -I interviewed a priest for a paper. While there, I was bemused at the alcoves that held dolls dressed in finery that represented various South American saints. Some time later I went to an exhibit on Voudou in a museum north of New Orleans. The exhibit had a bunch of alters that were strongly reminiscent of the alcoves in the Church.

And don't forget the Crimson Contagion exercise conducted from January to August 2019, whose report was completely (intentionally) ignored by Trump. I just don't buy that level of incompetence... The really ugly corruption has still not yet been found. The 4th Estate needs to keep looking...

Trump’s Lost Months Are Killing Us. Here’s How to Make Them Politically Fatal for Him.
racocn8 comments on Apr 7, 2020:
How about: No-test Trump killed your co-worker. Businessman Trump is the Pandemic Profiteer. The Liar's Lost Months killed your loved ones. "I like the numbers where they are" Trump testing: "I'd rate it a Ten." “No, I don’t take responsibility at all.”
This is what Democracy looks like. Going to the polls in Milwaukee.

One may hope that people will be influenced against those who seek to suppress voting by every nefarious means. As always, those who wrap themselves in flag are the ones that actually hate democracy, and their neighbors. Major kudos to the stalwart voters who endured the inhumanity.

racocn8 comments on Apr 7, 2020:
This is a conflict between the ideal of the Golden Rule and the innate instinct for fairness. Ideally, no one would wish harm to come to others. It is a wonderful sentiment, but quickly runs into trouble when one person's freedom infringes on the freedom of someone else, or in this case, infringes on the mortal safety of someone else. The hope that the irresponsible party suffer the consequence of their irresponsibility is a simple desire to see justice and fairness prevail. It is the extension of the reactive frustration where massive injustice comes from the president they elected. Certainly it would be better if people did not have such thoughts. However, few or no people have trained their minds so completely. It's just a wish; a wish not acted on. When one considers the problem of choosing who lives and who dies, one should hope that Darwin's justice might somehow prevail, even if it doesn't. It is the instinctual thirst for fairness that comes ahead of the intellectual Golden Rule.

Is this Pandemic a Form of Chinese Biological warfare ?
racocn8 comments on Apr 5, 2020:
The rates of infection are very poor evidence or indication that the Chinese released it. Also, motivation is completely lacking. The Chinese need some serious depopulation of their own and a virus would be effective for that. Covid 19 failed on that account. So... No.

Bernie spent a lot of time early on in the company of infamous Communists in Israel, and provided photo ops supporting the Castro regime. He has a lot of skeletons in his closed the MAGgots can't wait to trot out. Being Jewish, Bernie doesn't stand a chance with his 'Democratic Socialist' label. Christian bigotry is very much alive and well, especially among non-White Christians which Bernie would need to get elected. His traction among Las Vegas Hispanics was only because of a concerted effort, kind of like Buttagieg in Iowa. No similar interest among Hispanics anywhere else. Bernie has a terrible track record of getting anything through Congress. Biden was always the favorite up until the revelations about his son's supposedly corrupt dealings. Bernie looked to have a chance for the brief period between Iowa and North Carolina, after which he was creamed by Biden as everyone paying attention expected. This due to crappy turnout and minimal Black interest. Bernie's supporters were easily persuaded by the Russian's social media not to vote in 2016 and they're doing it again. Bernie has wonderful ideas, but would polarize the swing states back into Republican hands, giving Congress back to the MAGgots. Even if Bernie did win, he couldn't get a thing done with a Republican Congress. There's your progressive progress.

racocn8 comments on Apr 4, 2020:
Absurd. Each of those issues is complex but absurdly simplified, and ignores the reality that the Democrats have to negotiate with the GOP to get anything done. One could easily argue that Dems oppose most of the points in the middle rather than embrace them. Religious separation, LBGT, education, health care and a lot more aren't even mentioned. That makes the whole diagram bullshit troll propaganda.
The National Security Council Gave Trump a 69-Page Pandemic Plan Three Years Ago — He Ignored It
racocn8 comments on Apr 4, 2020:
And then last year in August, a pandemic simulation was conducted and results written up. It was also ignored, supposedly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimson_Contagion Do you start to see a pattern? Significant interest in the effects of a pandemic, but no interest before or after in stemming its impact. Could the Chinese be right that this was planted by the U.S. "military"?
Why Do So Many Hate Religion? What's ToHate?
racocn8 comments on Apr 2, 2020:
It is entirely possible to be a non-believer and to not hate religion. However, to do so, one must be obsessively naive and shut out every aspect of how religion perverts and corrupts human behavior. That's a tall order. Most non-believers have discarded blind faith because of their revulsion over religion's cruel values. It is entirely understandable and even laudable to seek to not hate. But if hate sneaks in, don't demean yourself unduly. As always, it is your obligation to ennoble others and enrich their life experience, and hate does not lend itself to that task. Most non-believers are committed to education of themselves and their children or associates. In many respects, education is a partial antidote to religion. Religion is the worst social disease. It inflicts pain and death as well as insanity. STDs have nothing on religion. Carriers can seem to lack symptoms, until you engage their critical thinking. Blind credulity is nothing less than a virus-borne lobotomy. Basic reasoning can be wiped out, and truth goes out the window. Religious study becomes a liar's club competition as to who can tell the biggest whopper. The conflict between Belief and Reality short circuits logic to the point of psychopathic behavior. That dysfunction manifests itself in a broad assortment of personality disorders that everyone has encountered. No one has to hate that shit, but for a lot of us, it makes it easier to tolerate.

racocn8 comments on Apr 1, 2020:
-Without working measures to contain the pandemic, the mortality is 1-4 % and infection can only stop when 40-50% have been infected (I only recall those numbers being spoken, I don't have a source). So, mortality is (1%)(40%)(population) or 0.4% * Population. For the world, that is 0.4% * 7,000,000,000 or 28,000,000. For the US population, 0.4% 300,000,000 is 1,200,000. That is way above the 100,000-200,000 being cited by the White House. 28 million is more than a thousand times what shows above, and way above the total of all the categories, including the asinine abortions number. And that world total could go as high as 140,000,000. Abortion does figure into the Covid 19 issue because the Christian obsession with abortion is the primary issue that cements evilangelical support for Trump. The anti-abortion kooks own a significant piece of what is about to go down in the U.S. Trump is about to oversee the deaths of tens of thousands of actual conscious American Human Beings. these deaths occurring over months when other countries successfully stopped Covid 19 in weeks. The anti-abortion kooks own a significant piece of what is about to go down in the U.S. Look at Trump when he presents his briefings and ask yourself if this man cares? Do you see genuine concern in his eyes about those dying, or is it still all about him? Was it really just heedless arrogance and incompetence,... or is his resisting and slow walking every measure something more intentional and sinister? Are you sure the Deep State is not that insidious? Christians still don't own up to their role fostering and supporting Nazism, and WW2 killed 85,000,000.

"Sadly, the Republicans in charge are often our weakest links." What the heck does that mean? It's not sad; it totally predictable. Republicanism is anti-progressive, anti-fairness, racist, sexist, representing and embracing every stripe of bigotry. It is probably naive, but we can hope that changing demographics will provide a chance to defeat them. However, the reality is that the American Constitutional system and the American Culture have fatal flaws that defy serious improvement.

racocn8 comments on Mar 29, 2020:
While the US laments Trump's utter bungling of the pandemic, the rest of the world that would depend on the US in such an emergency is entirely on their own. They certainly cannot expect Trump to help. After all, they're all shitholes according to Trump. They will lose 4% of their people in an agonizing, traumatic debacle. The US and Americans will be cursed forever because of Trump. This tragedy is a train wreck in slow motion.

racocn8 comments on Mar 29, 2020:
The question is whether Trump thinks he is a Christian Messiah. He is arrogant enough to have given the thought credence. Facing a trial and jail from the Ninth District if he loses 2020, he may figure he doesn't have much to lose. He's a psychopath, so all bets are off for his being a responsible human being.
