Nice Skipperku.

Everything is real within it's own context, within the context of the Universe.

Does that mean everything is true.

Objective and subjective are just words coined to propose subtle differences in the understanding of data input..

I think therefore I am.

I am therefore I think.

@Malcharaz.

More mumbo jumbo on the religious channel.

Faith will either pay off or not.

You will have to wait and see.

Or wait die and disperse your component parts back to the Universe from whence they came. Eternal existence in the kingdom of heaven if you like.

All good metaphors.

For sure. Og was out hunting Woolly Mammoth when his I Phone rang.

Science is as science does.

And the reason why do what we do now, and not what we once did.

Science is the practical application of intellect and knowledge.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Fearing science is denying the future.

One would assume that Christianity was the house of Christ.

Jacob was just one of those guys that tripped on something and heard voices.

Belief is uncertainty.

You believe that it is.

But you don't know that it is.

Accent and social development/integration.

Come to the UK and I will show you what I mean by social integration and the adoption of accent.

I don't think that there are no answers.

There's an answer to everything.

But we don't necessarily no it.

And so someone had an idea, and as people spread so the the idea spread.

And as the idea spread, so the idea became modified.

A bit like a dish of meat and vegetables.

But you forget to factor in material evolution which must also have been ordained by GOD.

Notwithstanding that the Bible was written by men and not by a GOD.

Yep, the devotee of Kim became the devotee of the Jesus MANGOD.

Either everything matters,

Or nothing matters.

One of these is true.

Therefore truth, is universally irrelevant in both contexts.

Though also relevant in narrower sub-contexts.

But, I'm not sure if facts and truth are synonymous.

Britches, now there's a word I haven't heard in a while.

My dear old mum, (the Universe rest her component parts), was always referring to britches.

Perhaps we are as smart as is necessary at an given time.

Though I think that there is a scale of smartness, with fewer at the top moving things forwards, and the bulk slowing things down like a great big heavy burden of human responsibility.

Probably slightly higher if one is unvaccinated.

And probably increases as one gets older.

But for sure, it really is a get knocked down by a bus and gotta go some time thing.

Correct me if I am wrong.

But my assumption is that vaccination doesn't actually prevent one from acquiring the Covid virus, but just limits the effects.

Therefore aren't unvaccinated people only really a threat to themselves and their fellow anti-vaxxers.

So if I am sat at a desk with my anti-vax colleague and a third party agent wafts by, I might have a few days of work, whereas my colleague might be off for longer.

What I conclude from this is that vaccine mandates are not really a health consideration per se, but primarily all about productivity and financial considerations.

Nora and her beau,

Having a go.

Beau let's flow,

And exclaims,

Arrrrrrr Nora.

Pencil and paper was fine.

Do we do all this stuff because we can?

Or because it's necessary.

One might suggest that necessity implies purpose.

Is this tiny speck of cosmic dust, the be all and end all of Universal success.

@Malcharaz

Perhaps theists are dumber than atheists.

Or perhaps not.

Dumb is as dumb does I suppose.

SO with the fertility rate dropping, demand for food and water will decrease.

So why would anyone abort/kill a foetus at 9 months.

Can you give me examples of where this normally occurs in the U.S.

Homelessness is something that a few people worry about a lot.

And a lot of people think about only when their memories are temporarily jogged by the TV.

Such is the variability of  human consideration. 

If we were a truly caring society, then homelessness wouldn't  be an issue.

King Edwards off to the seaside.

Couch potatoes maybe.

But you are right.

An easy lifestyle creates far too many people not bothering to consider their own well being until it's too late.

Terminating pregnancies at birth is generally referred to as either giving birth, or a caesarean section.

And good luck with the plan, which seems to mostly hinge upon reforming the criminal justice system.

Status Quo.

Sweet Caroline.

Yep, as I've said all along.

It's always older stuff rehashed.

Unless the Egyptian Pharaohs  were actually big-headed aliens.

I imagine that it all started with the Sun and the Moon and some naked dancing etc.

And got more elaborate as time went by.

And people went and spoiled it all by saying something stupid,

Like it's sinful.

In the style of Frank and Nancy.

Where there's dope there's a heightened state of detachment from reality.

That's assuming that normal isn't a reduced sense of attachment to reality.

The assumption being that normal is what we think it is.

Which could lead one to conclude, that normal is as normal does at any given moment.

We will all be arrested by our own mortality soon enough.

I use the acronym GOD.

That which might command devotion.

An acronym of ones choosing.

How about.....Genesis of Destruction.

I don't believe that Jesus was any more than he was.

I accept that there probably was a real person represented by the biblical character of Jesus.

And that said character was considered noteworthy at the time.

Have a nice day.

Well done on the Economics.

Hope it was a successful assignment.

Bitcoin et al, is the new phase (electronic money) of wealth assumption, relative to techno.

 Wads of paper and chinkley metal discs  are certainly done for.

And as techno evolves the device will surely go and the implant will follow.

And then we will all eventually be uncontrollably linked to something.

And who or what will control that something? 

For as long as money is the One True GOD that governs the success and progress of humanity..

Not trying to be sci-fi scary.

Just Sci-realistic.

Material evolution in progress, for a reason MAYBE.

Plenty of food and a big coat if you live North.

Plenty of weed, water and love if you move to the desert.

And don't forget to take your guns.

Because every mad arsed American will be doing the same.

Probably more chance of being hit by an AR15 than an AK47.

I was primarily thinking G20.

And then the fact that India doesn't formally recognise the ICC.

And then India's current Right Wing trend, and it's recent support for Putin.

And trump still lost legitimately. 

Soon, a chance for another go at the next election circus.

Watch this space.

Not that I'm saying that the Presidential election process is perfect.

Far from it.

That's one of the drawbacks with pandering to history.

Not much chance of the Indians arresting him.

Virtually everyone embraces technology.

And as time passes the power of technology will only get Lefter and Lefter, until it becomes extremely Right. Big Brother.

We possess the ability to observe and internally reinterpret what we assume to observe.

Internally creating a simulation of what we confidently assume that we observe externally.

99.9 % is everyone, with a margin of error of 0.1.

Very few stationary hermits absorbing nutrients from the atmosphere.

And I don't actively attempt to conclude, I just formulate opinions and present them as ideas.

And you and I, peas in a pod. we should start the Non-Voting Party.

I wouldn't be voting for us though.

And do we agree then, that it is the right of the pregnant female to decide, (except where it is agreed that she is intellectually incapable of making such a decision). Within agreed limits.

OOOPS there's that agree word again.

Do you agree that it's nigh on impossible to get the human race to agree about anything.

Would you believe that some people still say that the Earth is flat.

Though I don't think that they actually think that the Earth is flat.  I think.

For sure, but who is doing it correctly.

We all assume that we are,

And that includes you Trade.

No real answers currently available though.

And the life sustaining ability of Planet Earth will inevitably end one day.

Though whether or not we will have escaped this Earthly prison in our current form, will depend upon the application of science.

Rather than the reinterpretation of old Middle Eastern folk tales. 

My opinions of course.

And don't forget that there are a whole load of tough little critters who have the potential to out live Homo-sapiens without even thinking about it.

No sin or love required.

GOD principle maybe.

@Malcharaz.

Logic is.

GOD might not be.

And obsession is not just a fragrance by Calvin Klein.

@Malcharaz the Blocker with the most closed mind of all.

Because they have issues which they are unable to deal with.

One can only guess that their formative conditioning was quite strict.

We must remain tolerant.

Though it is quite clear that they do read our responses, so their block is more a sort of defiant arrogance than an effective avoiding strategy.

In fact the whole blocking thing is pretty pointless really. Because blocking inevitably stimulates a response, and human nature dictates that the blocker is unlikely to ignore our comments.

And the religious debates will carry on ad-infinitum......... Well, unless GODDO pops out from behind a cloud one day doing happy-hands.

I share your assumption.

And also your lack of depth on the subject.

And I would suggest that Mr DeSantis functions relative to his own personal hormone and data management diktats. Same as most people, but variable in output relative to expected benefit, as only we should expect.

And if people vote for Mr DeSantis, they will have put a cross on a piece of paper, because they thought that it was a good thing to do at the time. And if enough people do the same, then Mr DeSantis will have achieved his objective. Temporary Alfa-Male status.

Though basically  "woke" is a dialect corruption of the English language. Sort of a cool and trendily alternative way of saying awake.

And the dog barks woke and the flock bleats woooooooke. 

What it is to be human.

Sort of my point.

That it is your assumption,  (which is probably based upon your own assumed political leanings)  that all "left wing" are pro-choice.

What ever "left-wing" might be in your mind.

Is it simply the self opinionated folk down the road who didn't vote as you did? Or is it a pseudo-mythical alternative  life-force, out there somewhere in your dark recesses.

Nonetheless, it's nice to see that your support is wholly in favour of the mother and her choices, irrespective of any assumptions regarding her political leanings. Which of course, could easily be regarded as a pro-choice and therefore a "left-wing" principle..

Though I would suggest that it is still reasonable for any individual regardless of classification, to formulate an opinion. Given the nature of the beast and it's on-board data processing unit. In fact, I would further suggest that it is nigh on impossible for a fully functioning  data processing unit not to form an opinion.

And selective morality in regard to living matter, is something that 99.9% of the human race suffer from. It's a basic survival strategy. (In my opinion)

Just start at the beginning and finish at the end.

Or for fun, read it backwards.

Underarm deodorant.

Necessity for the vainglorious.

Only joking

But I think that the species could quite easily manage without it.

There you go Trade, off interpreting  again.

Just as I did.

Some might even say that death is the inevitability of life relative to innate programming.

And some might further say that sin is a concept relative to the species ability to over think.

And further still, some might suggest that love is an overused word, relative to any pleasant response to a sensory stimulus.

Does every living organism die because of sin?

What about trees. What did trees ever do to embarrass GODDO.

Was it the apple thing?

I expect that the stick impeded the cats progress.

I once beat a tortoise.

But I've never beaten a hare.

Next time I will give the hare a stick.

Let's see what old big ears makes of that.

@Malcharaz the Blocker.

Can you prove that any of this is more than your imagination.

Hmmmmm.

There's government and then there's the faceless autonomy of material progress.

And then there's human beings and their money thing.

I would suggest turning you stash of paper into gold Mr S.

And they shall be known as Malcharaz the blocker.

What's up Doc.

If GODDO always had resurrection up its sleeve then why would it need to be wrathful?

Actually, given it's omni-capabilities, why would a GOD be wrathful at all.
