When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.

      How You Doin'?

You know that I'm Schrödinger, don't you?

 Most theoretical physicists now believe that our universe is just one of a vast number of universes all with very different physical properties.  And all of these different universes originate from the same fundamental principles.  So there’s not one solution to the crossword puzzle.  There are many solutions to the crossword puzzles.  In that case there’s no possibility of explaining why our universe is a necessary consequence of the fundamental principles.  There are many, many different possibilities.  Some of these other universes might have 17 dimensions.  Some of them might have planets and stars like ours.  Others may have just an amorphous field of energy with no planets and stars.  Some of them might allow life like our universe.  Some of them may not allow life.  And our universe is just one lucky draw from the hat.

In which case we are accidental.  We are an accidental universe.  And so, the historic mission of science, and especially physics, to show that we are – our universe is the unique result of a certain set of fundamental principles – that historic mission is no longer feasible. It’s no longer possible.  This conclusion makes theoretical physicists extremely unhappy because it means that a lot of our mission is an illusion.  But that may be the way nature is.

Balanitis happens when the head of your penis becomes irritated and inflamed. You’re more likely to develop it if you aren’t circumcised.

    I see that now you are a big fan of Elon Musk.

     So, you aren't a big fan of Stormy?

Why does God let children die from cancer?   The Universe is an accident.

At the moment of the Big Bang, the universe had 10 dimensions, but only three of these spatial dimensions expanded. So, the three-dimensional space we experience could have formed from 10 dimensions, just as superstring theory predicts.

Atheists are smart and religious people are stupid people that need an opiate. Evolution has produced countless amazing life forms, but you need look no further than to the human body to find examples showing that evolution has also produced a number of poor constructions. "The many flaws of evolution makes it impossible to believe in the theory of intelligent design," says Professor Glenn-Peter Sætre at the University of Oslo. An obvious example of "unintelligent design" in the human body is that women have a narrow birth canal, which makes childbirth both more dangerous and more painful than in other species. "The human body is also constructed poorly in a lot of other ways. We are for example not able to synthesize the all-important vitamin C, unlike other mammals. Therefore, we must either obtain vitamin C through our food or die from scurvy. It is unreasonable to claim that this is the result of an intelligent design," Sætre points out.

A 2004 JAMA study was among the first to suggest a modifiable risk factor, finding “high ejaculation frequency” may be associated with lower risk for prostate cancer. The present research builds upon these findings with the “high quality data” collected from nearly 32,000 men participating in the Health Professionals Follow-up study; the men were followed for a total of 18 years. At the start of the study, men aged 20 to 29 and 40 to 49 were asked to calculate the average number of times they ejaculated per month, including the number of times they ejaculated during the previous year. Researchers then used both averages to compute a lifetime average.
The results showed men who ejaculated at least 21 times a month reduced their risk for prostate cancer by 20 percent compared to men who ejaculated four to seven times a month. 

Yes, Hastert was the longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House in history. After Democrats gained a majority in the House in 2007, Hastert resigned and began work as a lobbyist. In 2016, he was sentenced to 15 months in prison for financial offenses related to the sexual abuse of teenage boys.

Maybe it's, if you believe in God, you immediately start committing crimes, stealing, and basically just being a menace to society.

You know, like Televangelist Jim Bakker.  Bakker was indicted by a federal grand jury on 24 charges of mail fraud, wire fraud, and conspiring to defraud the public in 1988 following a 15-month investigation. 

Remember that if you do believe in God, you are more likely to fly an airplane into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

Allahu Akbar!

Well, when Einstein, Hawking and Elon Musk found out that there was no God, they didn't immediately start committing crimes, killing people they didn't like, stealing, and basically just being a menace to society. Also Bill Gates Gates has said he's "pretty much an atheist" and that belief in a god "makes zero sense." 

Yes, former President Donald Trump, who repeatedly pressured and even threatened to fire Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell to continue to keep the interest rates low to aid his re-election campaign. Our high inflation rate is totally Trump's fault. Fortunately, his base are the ones that are suffering.

It's too bad BdotK is not a Muslim. Muslims are still the largest single religious group to circumcise boys. In Islam circumcision is also known as tahara, meaning purification.
Circumcision is not mentioned in the Qur'an, but it is highlighted in the Sunnah (the Prophet Muhammed's recorded words and actions). In the Sunnah, Muhammad stated that circumcision was a "law for men."
The main reason given for the ritual is cleanliness. It is essential that every Muslim washes before praying. It is important that no urine is left on the body.
Muslims believe the removal of the foreksin makes it easier to keep the penis clean because urine can't get trapped there.
Supporters of circumcision also argue that excrements may collect under the foreskin which may lead to fatal diseases such as cancer.
Some Muslims see circumcision as a preventive measure against infection and diseases.

When it comes to dating, teen-beat country singer Taylor Swift has two rules for her men: one, she must write a heart-wrenching song once they’ve split, and two, the helmet has got to go.
Swift’s latest breakup with heartthrob Harry Styles of One Direction apparently ended because the British boy-band member didn’t have a bris milah (in all fairness, it’s not his fault: they seemingly don’t do that over there).
Their split, following two months of romance, was because Styles allegedly was sick of being nagged to have his penis circumcised, Huffington Post writes.

You know that Jesus was circumcised, don't you?  Luke 2:21 records the fact that Jesus was circumcised: “On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived.” Later in the same chapter, Luke emphasizes that Joseph and Mary followed all the Jewish requirements, doing “everything required by the Law of the Lord” concerning their newborn son (verse 39). In following the law, Joseph and Mary would undoubtedly have circumcised Jesus. Failure to do so would have been a clear violation of the law.

On Feb. 28, 2017, President Trump signed H.J. Res. 40, effectively ending the Social Security Administration's requirement to enter the names of people who receive mental health benefits into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. This is the database used by the FBI to determine who is able to purchase firearms.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A Texas man went next door with a rifle and began shooting his neighbors, killing an 8-year-old and four others inside the house, after the family asked him to stop firing rounds in his yard because they were trying to sleep, authorities said Saturday.

FYI, the shooter was not black.

I see what you are saying, the Romans were the ones who actually crucified Jesus (Matthew 27:27–37). Crucifixion was a Roman method of execution, authorized and carried out by the Romans under the authority of Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor who sentenced Jesus. Roman soldiers drove the nails into His hands and feet, Roman troops erected the cross, and a Roman solider pierced His side (Matthew 27:27–35).

OMG, they are going the same way as

Oh, sorry, I thought this topic was about Trump's small arms and hands.

Why isn't God on TikTok talking to people from a burning bush?

The world's happiest countries are also among the least religious, according to a UN report from 2018, 

The results are pooled from Gallup World Poll surveys from 2015-2017 and are based on six key variables which the report says have been found to support well-being: income, healthy life expectancy, social support, freedom, trust and generosity.
The chart, which for the first time measured the happiness of immigrants in each country, is striking in that the happiest 10 countries in the world are also among the least religious.

I agree with you on this. An Intersex baby’s genitalia may also look completely male or completely female. In other words, they may have male anatomy on the outside but female anatomy on the inside or vice versa.
It could be that a child’s status as intersex doesn’t become obvious until puberty when their body produces more of a hormone that doesn’t match their assigned sex.

Yes, Sometimes, a baby can have genitalia with some male characteristics and some female characteristics. And even deeper than external appearance, some people are born with a mix of male and female biological features (such as a uterus and testicles) that can’t be seen on the outside.
When someone doesn’t fall exactly into the “male” or “female” sex designation, the term “intersex” may be used.

I think she saw you talking about the American Automobile Association (AAA).

OMG, do you think Kaitlyn is a gold medal-winning track star who set a world record in the decathlon at the 1976 Summer Olympics?

By Dr Steve Brewer:

Morality has both subjective and objective components. The objective component is provided by the laws of Game Theory. The subjective element is the strategy selected by a player attempting to maximize their personal reward.
Game theory describes the competitive or collaborative strategies that a rational agent can use to maximise their benefit in any situation. (In this context, a rational agent is someone capable of thinking about then acting in their own best interest.) Often, cooperation provides the optimum outcome for all interacting parties, but at any time an agent might break the contract in an attempt to increase their own rewards. Such an action might have short term benefits, but it has been shown that in a series of interaction games, such a cheat will lose out because the others will soon refuse further cooperation. There are, therefore, substantial individual and group advantages to keeping such a contract. This ‘reciprocal altruism’, where the group rewards collaboration and punishes the cheat, is modelled by the ‘tit-for-tat’ strategy in Game Theory.
I would argue with the Mathematical Platonists that abstract mathematical ideas are mind-independent entities. Like any other object, they can be discovered and verified by anyone with the right equipment – in this case a skill in mathematics. Therefore, the outcome of our moral behavior, subject to the laws of relationships determined by the mathematical objects of Game Theory, in this sense are objective. However, the strategies are subjectively chosen by agents acting in what they perceive to be their own best interest. Their choices may or may not coincide with supporting the social order.
Human civilization is highly dependent on the operation of Game Theory’s reciprocal altruism. A society’s moral codes are attempts to ensure that individuals choose the collaborative strategy over many ‘plays’, that is, social interactions. Although the moral rules encapsulated by the Golden Rule (‘Do unto others…’) and Law of Retaliation (‘an eye for an eye’) are simple, in practice they can become very complex. Human agents are playing many parallel games in an ever-changing social and physical environment, with no guarantee of group success. To retain social cohesion, the moral code may incorporate many complex taboos or ritualistic actions, lack of compliance with which can be used as an explanation of the group’s failures. An agent, however, is always free to challenge the code by choosing the antisocial strategy. In such cases the agent will find themselves in peril of retribution in the form of tribal or civil law.

Remember that your life is one billionth the life of the Universe. I pray to our Simulation Creators that you all find Humanism.

Just to recap.

The population of Lesotho is estimated to be around 90 percent Christian. Roman Catholics, the largest religious group, make up around 45 percent of the population.

From Bloomberg's Loren Grush:

Rarely does a commercial rocket achieve a fully successful flight during its inaugural launch, and SpaceX itself suffered three losses of its very first rocket, the Falcon 1, before it finally achieved orbit on its fourth attempt.
But the inability of the Starship to separate from its booster, one of the very first steps to getting the vehicle ready for prime time, highlights the challenges ahead for Musk’s grandiose plan for Starship to open up space to human travel. The ultimate goal — making the vehicle capable of carrying people and cargo to the moon and beyond — will likely take years and perhaps billions of dollars to achieve, requiring advances in engineering the world has never before seen.

I think that there are major errors in the Starship's design and the whole project will have to be redesigned.

         Yes, that was $10 billion well spent.

Well, In 2020, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper referred to Lindell as a “snake oil salesman” for pushing oleander extract as a therapeutic treatment.
During his interview with Cooper, Lindell said promoting the unproven extract was what “Jesus has me do” and claimed the extract had been studied, though he failed to provide any details.
When pressed, Lindell shot back at Cooper: “Why would I do this? Ask yourself why would I ruin my reputation if I didn’t believe in this product?”
“Money,” answered Cooper. “You don’t have a great reputation. … You have an ‘F’ from the Better Business Bureau.”

One of the biggest movers to the upside and downside over the past day in the cryptocurrency world is Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE). This meme token, often tied to self-proclaimed "Dogefather" Elon Musk, has seen its token price gyrate on various Musk-related catalysts over the years.
This morning's disintegration of SpaceX's Starship in its major test flight led immediately to an implosion-like move in Dogecoin, which has plunged 8% over the past three hours, as of 12:15 p.m. ET. Prior to this move, the stock had moved steadily higher. Thus, over the past day, this token has declined only 5.8%, which is still a considerable move, even for this volatile meme token.

A good design works in a test.  A bad design fails in a test.

 I thought you would say it happened because Elon Musk is an Atheist.

I have no idea, check Dr Michael Banner's reasoning.

It's called failure for a reason.

Well, Jesus could have been transgender, according to a University of Cambridge dean.
Dr Michael Banner, the dean of Trinity College, said such a view was “legitimate”.

Actually, like Trump, I pay Stormy to do it for me.
