Paul's Message is Irrefutable
Stephen Hawking spoke candidly in a 2011 Guardian interview about what he believes happens when people die. He told the Guardian that while he "wasn't afraid of death," he was in no hurry to die. "I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail," he said. "There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark." 

Wow, SkepticalOne sounds like Hawking and PGA2.0 sounds like Jim Bakker.

While an explosion of a man-made bomb expands through air, the Big Bang did not expand through anything. That's because there was no space to expand through at the beginning of time. Rather, physicists believe the Big Bang created and stretched space itself, expanding the universe.

In a lengthy phone interview with Fortune, the Tesla CEO and world's richest man said he was delighted about the change in the White House, given that Joe Biden seems determined to rein in climate change—a jolting break from Donald Trump.
“I’m super fired up that the new administration is focused on climate,” Musk says, adding that he follows Biden on Twitter and is watching his moves carefully.

What about Albert Einstein?  Einstein was a committed socialist, who viewed the capitalist economy as producing a series of “grave evils” that could only be abolished by the “establishment of a socialist economy, accompanied by an educational system which would be oriented toward social goals.”For Einstein, a socialist economy didn't mean moderate reforms with the context of the market economy, as many social democrats would advocate, but a planned economy where “the means of production are owned by society itself” and production for use replaces production for profit.
As a socialist, early champion of LGBTQ+ rights, anti-war activist, and sympathizer of the civil rights movement Albert Einstein shared many of the views of the modern left. Today, Einstein would probably find himself at home with the politics of BLM and similar movements, and would insist on tying questions of equal rights into the struggle for socialism on an international scale.

Educated people tend to skew democratic/liberal, and engineers are highly educated.
Engineers are also trained to understand real world issues, including the details, and work through them. That eliminates many republican claims, like climate change denial, or that tax cuts for the rich fix all problems.
Anyone studying engineering in an American university is likely to interact with many foreign students and professors. That probably has an effect on social attitudes and foreign policies, and not toward isolationist, nativist policies.
That said, some engineers get rich and support conservative policies that benefit them.

 good-looking people are more likely to be conservative,
I don't know, I'm very good looking and I'm not conservative. People used to say that I looked like Robert Redford. You have to be very good looking to get into my fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha. I guess I'm not conservative because I have a high IQ. There aren't many conservatives that have degrees in nuclear engineering.

An anti-vaccine right-wing radio host in West Palm Beach, Florida died  last Wednesday from COVID-19 complications.
Dick Farrel, 65, used his local talk show and social media to rail against Dr. Anthony Fauci, who he called a “power tripping lying freak,” and say that no one should get the coronavirus vaccine.

A 17-year-old Georgia high school football player died of COVID-19 complications after he was sent home twice by the hospital where he sought care, according to the teenager’s parents.
Tyler Fairley, a student-athlete at Douglas County High School west of Atlanta, succumbed to the disease on Aug. 1 just over a week after testing positive for the virus. He did not receive a COVID-19 vaccine.

Abortion - Responsibility and Rights
This is from:  Abortion: is the fetus human?
                            by Rochelle Forrester


If I compare a fetus, say a few weeks after conception, to me I
seem to have little in common with it. It not only doesn’t live in my
world, it doesn’t live in any world, as it has no nervous system and no
brain. It has no awareness of anything, it doesn’t even know it exists. If
the fetus existence ends early on in the pregnancy, it won’t miss anything
as it was not aware of anything. Obviously this changes as time goes by,
but at least early on the fetus has much more in common with a plant than
with a human being.

Or the vaccine might destroy any cancers you have growing in your body. Companies like Moderna and Pfizer's partner BioNTech, whose names are familiar from COVID-19 vaccines, are using mRNA to spur cancer patients' bodies to make vaccines that will – they hope – prevent recurrences and treatments designed to fight off advanced tumors.

President Donald Trump dismissed a study produced by his own administration, involving 13 federal agencies and more than 300 leading climate scientists, warning of the potentially catastrophic impact of climate change.
Why, you ask?
“I don’t believe it,” Trump told reporters, adding that he had read “some” of the report.

Well Trump is the lowest IQ president ever elected.

Is Donald trump racist?
The Ku Klux Klan has grown faster since Donald Trump’s inauguration than any time in recent memory, a Klan leader has claimed.
“I’ve been doing this for over 20 years and I haven’t seen the Klan grow at the pace it’s growing now,” Chris Barker, an Imperial Wizard of the KKK, told The Independent. “I mean, it’s even hard to keep track of the numbers you’ve got ’cause there’s so many coming in.”

Yes, didn't God really kill Jesus because he was gay? The Scriptures (Matthew 27:46 and Mark 15:34) record Jesus saying as He is dying on the cross for the sin of the world, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me.”

Did they mention that Jesus was gay?

I still do not understand how the Trinity is a coherent concept

It’s nonsense. A huge lie that millions believe. Ancient Babylon had trinities and that is where the “Christian” version was adopted from about 400 years after Jesus died. 1+1+1=3 even a 2 year old could tell that ,but adults try to tell you it equals one. People have taken a simple Father/Son relationship and turned it into something no one can understand and that the Bible doesn’t teach.

lso, for the third time, it is impossible for the FBI documents to be propaganda when they were not released in 1968. How would the American public be exposed to this "propaganda" if they never saw it? Why would the FBI make "propaganda" but not release it?
The FBI–King suicide letter or blackmail package was an anonymous 1964 letter and package by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) meant to blackmail Martin Luther King Jr. The suicide letter was part of the FBI's COINTELPRO operation against King.
On November 21, 1964, a package that contained the letter and a tape recording allegedly of King's sexual indiscretions was delivered to Coretta Scott King, wife of Martin Luther King Jr., and later to King Jr. himself. Although the letter was anonymously written, Martin Luther King Jr. correctly suspected the FBI sent the package. Coretta Scott King described the tapes by saying "I couldn't make much out of it, it was just a lot of mumbo jumbo." The letter does not specify precisely what action it is urging King to undertake; King understood the letter as advocating that he commit suicide, although some have suggested that it was merely urging him to decline the Nobel Peace Prize (which he won in 1964) or step out of leadership.

I saw Joe Rogan’s test score on his Instagram and decided to see how I stack up
So I took the online IQ test at test-iq.org. 
It said:
Impressive! You completed the test in: 16 m 36 sThat's faster than 97% of people tested.Your strongest category is Pattern Recognition where you scored higher than 99% of people tested.

I didn't want to pay the $19.99, so I didn't get the actual score.

Science (from Latin scientia 'knowledge') is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations  and predictions about the universe. Without science Man would only live to be 30 years old and  3/4 of his children would die before they were 15 years old.

Yes, new research suggests that the layer of insulation coating neural wiring in the brain plays a critical role in determining intelligence. In addition, the quality of this insulation appears to be largely genetically determined, providing further support for the idea that IQ is partly inherited.
