Thank God that Putin is not an Atheist. He frequently demonstrates his Russian Orthodox faith in public in front of cameras. He wears a gold cross around his neck (under his clothing), which he says was “miraculously saved” from a fire in his house many years ago — stating the event was one of the turning points in his life of faith. So God can save Putin but not a 7 year old kid with cancer?

The Universe is not part of objective reality. A question that we cannot answer is whether there is such a thing as an objective, observer-independent reality. Many of us assume that it does, and we build our interpretations of quantum physics in such ways that they admit an underlying, objective reality. Others don’t make that assumption, and build equally valid interpretations of quantum physics that don’t necessarily have one. All we have to guide us, for better or for worse, is what we can observe and measure. We can physically describe that, successfully, either with or without an objective, observer-independent reality. At this moment in time, it’s up to each of us to decide whether we’d rather add on the philosophically satisfying but physically extraneous notion that “objective reality” is meaningful.

White Supremacist groups have claimed that Anthony Johnson, a Black forced laborer who became free in 17th century Virginia, was the first legal slave owner in the British colonies that became the United States. That claim is historically false and misleading.

Carl Sagan was a big influence for me and he never outright degrades religion, he simply said they should evaluate their beliefs honestly, and in doing so, they would come to the most rational view of reality.

The title now is X question.
Elon Musk acquired Twitter in a controversial transaction that cost him $44 billion. He later merged the social media company into an entity called X Corp.
Musk is not shy about the changes he wants to make at the company. He's also now looking for anyone, literally anyone, to come up with a new logo, calling out for new designs for X logos on his Twitter account. “If a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we’ll make go live worldwide tomorrow,” Musk tweeted.

Trump used the concept of the Big Lie which he got reading Mein Kampf. We have a voting base that believes big lies. This will eventually destroy the USA.

from Rogel Alpher:
There is no God. An individual who believes in a God that actively intervenes in earthly events, keeps an eye on him personally, and listens and responds to his prayers is mistaken. He doesn’t understand basic facts about the world and the provenance of the phone from which he sends text messages, the car that he drives, the antibiotic that cures his bronchitis and the electricity that brightens in his home. Belief in such a God is such an ignorant mistake that there’s something mentally disturbed about it. There’s no dispute at all over whether such a God who created the universe exists. There’s no need to assume his existence in order to explain the world, and there’s no objective evidence of his existence.

A big lie is a gross distortion or misrepresentation of the truth primarily used as a political propaganda technique. The German expression was first used by Adolf Hitler in his book Mein Kampf (1925) to describe how people could be induced to believe so colossal a lie because they would not believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously". You can see where Trump got the idea to overthrow the election of 2020. Trump kept a copy of Mein Kampf on his nightstand.

You know that there wouldn't be any Jesus if people had smartphones 2000 years ago? Because we have them today, you don't see God talking from a burning bush.

Jesus was never mentioned in any Roman sources and there is no archeological evidence that Jesus ever existed. Even Christian sources are problematic – the Gospels come long after Jesus' death, written by people who never saw the man.

Jesus Never Existed: An Introduction to the Ultimate Heresy
In the space of this hard-hitting monograph and supplemental interview, dissident scholar Kenneth Humphreys interrogates the biblical and historical evidence to offer this concise and pithy exposition of a “fringe” idea whose time has come. Not content to merely poke holes in tall tales from antiquity, Humphreys presents a surprisingly straightforward case that Jesus, thought by millions of naïve believers to have been God incarnate, or at least the Son of God, was not even a man.
Until now, most scholars of religion have, at least publicly, been content to repeat the safe and conciliatory assurance that a Jesus “probably” existed. But we may well be approaching a tipping point when those same scholars, confronted with powerful evidence and an inquisitive public, will summon the courage to aver that Jesus “probably” never existed after all.
Having devoted much of his life to the careful study of ancient history, Humphreys harbors no doubt: Jesus, the non-existent son of a non-existent father, will soon be consigned to a place among his ancestors–Adam, Noah, Abraham, and Moses–in the realm of mythology, not history.

Highly intelligent people see a world and possibilities most don't. They recognize patterns and interconnectedness differently; they see abstractions where others see only tangible things. They see the underlying themes, the causes, and the consequences.

Within the United States, and much of the world, it is the cultural norm to classify people as male or female – this is called the gender binary. Many individuals have a gender identity that does not fit within this binary, and use the umbrella term non-binary.

People who are intersex have genitals, chromosomes or reproductive organs that don't fit into a male/female sex binary. Isn't that poor design?
Sexual desire is created in the brain to impel reproduction. When neutral pathways are malformed it can create a desire for the same sex.

From your link: Cluster munitions have demonstrated military utility. Their elimination from U.S. stockpiles would put the lives of its soldiers and those of its coalition partners at risk. Moreover, cluster munitions can often result in much less collateral damage than unitary weapons, such as a larger bomb or larger artillery shell would cause, if used for the same mission.
