A Zedku for Doc and Lunar.
And floaty about GODS have also been debunked trillions of times.
(Just referencing your dodgy statistic Doc).
Not that it makes a lot of difference,
Because all the relevant data,
Is, out there floating around,
Anyway.
So in simple terms,
A GOD has never healed an amputee,
Because GOD is a concept.
Though amputees do heal,
They just don't regrow,
The bit that was amputated.
Though,
Some go on to be,
Athletes.
Whereas,
Some entire people,
Go on to be,
Fat and lazy.

A Zedku for n8nrgim.
Laws are as Laws do.
And Attorneys work to a budget,
And the bigger the budget,
The less relevant the Law becomes.
Law is traded like any other commodity,
And legal reason and purpose,
Becomes largely inconsequential.
Other than as a media product,
And stock to trade.
Someone once said that,
Power corrupts,
And absolute power,
Corrupts absolutely.
Such are the workings of a society.
And the Law,
Becomes an Ass.

Atheism is derived from theism.
If there was no theism, then there would be no atheism,
There would just be databases void of certain contrived data sequences.
Though irrespective of popular contrived religions,
It does seem that humans have always felt the need to understand,
And therefore attribute the reason for everything,
To something worship worthy.
Currently, the device is proving popular.
Head down,
Thumbs a go go,
The new prayer machine.

There is only ever one variable system.
So depending upon ones view point, left is either left or right,
And right is either right or left.
Feminism and Trans are labelled concepts relative to actions and possibilities,
And as such are all a part of the ongoing system,
Of material development.
As Athias suggested to me earlier:
It doesn't matter which way we are facing,
As long as we get there.

Not a trick question.
I was just emphasising the point, that as dictated by RM's axiom, I had turned around and was walking backwards.
My dilemma is:
As I am making a pre-determined journey between reference points A and B, am I not still moving/walking forwards?
In terms of time and space, don't all events move forwards?
And as I am facing my point of departure A and not my intended point of destination, although axiomatically I would be regarded as facing forwards, am I not also facing where I have come from, therefore backwards?

Well the reference points are A and B and Me
And I am travelling from A towards B whilst facing A.
So my ambulatory mode would be regarded as backwards, but in terms of my journey I will still be moving forwards.
And relative to B, I would be facing backwards, but my body position would imply that I was facing forwards.
So relative to myself, I bow to the axiom, but relative to my reference points A and B , I'm not so sure.
And I believe that instantaneous velocity can be both positive and negative, and if the path I take is well defined, then I am unlikely to go sideways.

Syntax and punctuation are vitally important,

So
If I walk from A to B,
But rotate 180 degrees from the recognised norm.
Am I walking backwards, whilst facing forwards,
Or am I walking forwards, whilst facing backwards.

Nope, hardly modern day.
But unfortunately modern day.
But probably why we don't see many Somalians aboard the Space Station.
Not that there aren't clever people of Somalian descent,
But I expect that not many such people,
Opt to live in Somalia.
All recognition though,
To those clever people who do....Surgeons et al.
It's such a pity,
That non-sensical religious ideology,
Still strives to drag humanity backwards.
Maybe for a reason?
Mustn't get too ahead of ourselves.

A Zedku for sui-generis.
Most people fit into one of two categories.
Egg producer,
Sperm producer.
Then there are the occasional developmental anomalies.
And then there is a separate issue,
Sex.
There is reproductive sex,
And then there is recreational sex.
To achieve satisfactory outcomes,
There are nowadays,
Various recognised options available for both activities.
It is very easy to conflate the two issues,
Of gender,
And half an hour in the sack.
And consequently,
Come up with,
All manner of stupid stuff.
Throw in a bit of psychology and surgery for good measure,
And Bob's your Aunty,
And Fanny's your Uncle.
So to speak.

So are we suggesting that Jesus was in fact Bangladeshi?
Or his dad was?
Or what the f**k are you two arguing about now?
I would personally suggest that judging from all the pictures I've seen of Jesus,
His dad was probably of Northern European or Scandinavian origin.

I prefer debates like what you mention as well mharman.

What you mention as well mharman, is probably way too niche for a lot of people.
So beforehand, can you be sure to provide a list of what mharman mentions as well?

Probably not advantageous, because they would probably already be doing it.......As their marketeers are undoubtedly a whole lot cleverer than you.
And as Intel said.....One sells things for a price or gives away for free.
I think that the "desired consumer" for your ideas, probably falls within the 5 to 10 age range.
Just an observation.

The mask is designed to reduce the spread of the virus.
The virus is transmitted on airborne mucus particles, sneezed or coughed out by an infected person.
The mask will prevent the spread of such airborne particles, and in doing so will prevent the spread of the virus, from the infected person.
It's pretty simple stuff.
Some uninformed or misinformed people, seem to think that the virus particles can crawl out through the mask and ambush unsuspecting victims.
D'oh!

Chiefly vanity as I suggested, and as I will suggest again.
I doubt that many people seriously consider serious theory.
And gullible numpties are easily persuaded by any sweet talking bullshitter.
And one can choose to drink or not, in a bar with a vain, dictatorial bartender in charge.
I expect that other bars were available.
Though if serious theory were to be believed, then it was perhaps wiser not to gather in crowded bars.
And the wise probably didn't, and the less wise probably did.
And hate is a powerful emotion, and not really applicable when considering whether to wear a protective mask or not.

@Yassine
I must agree that the invasion of Iraq with it's phoney pretext, was nothing more than an oil based, soft target war.
And the insidious Bush Blair bromance is worthy of condemnation.
As is the constant meddling in and destabilising of, deliberately misunderstood Middle Eastern and North African regimes.
If you wanna crusade against tyranny and injustice then why not invade Israel too. Etc.

And the trouble with religion is:
That there are always hypocrites who consider themselves self righteous enough, to make up and impose this sort of vindictive bullshit.
You must believe in my GOD.
And you must do as I say GOD says.
Because I am better than you.
Because I say my GOD says so.

I understand that.
I was merely suggesting that De Santis is too right wing and unappealing to the moderate public.

Well, most religions lack a provable Godhead.
Though all religions are true, in as much as they are recognisable data constructs, and cannot be denied as such.
Islam is just a derivation of Christianity......Both being founded upon the same unprovable Abrahamic Godhead.

Do you not think that De Santis will continue to alienate the moderate voter?
After all, it is the moderate centre that decides elections.
Or do you think that Far Right candidates, will prove more attractive next time?
Or are there just no moderate Republicans available.
Does the average Joe or Jodie or gender neutral, only worry about guns and abortion?

Ok.
So I will concede that it is perhaps unreasonable of me to expect that your English syntax and punctuation should be perfect.
But I'm still far from certain that I understand your question.
Though I would suggest that not wearing a mask maybe more of a vanity issue, rather than being based upon any real application of scientific understanding.
Stupidity rather than irony.

Not to Poly's discussion.
Humans are inherently selfish,
They want what they want.
Altruism is a rare thing indeed.
And the ability to be selectively moral is simply a response to conditioned sensibilities.
And you perhaps lack the "capacity" to understand this.
Maybe you weren't invested with such "capacity".
We all have to succumb to group think beliefs,
Which shapes and limits our "capacity".
State is as State does.
And in a two party State,
One's conditioned capacity is relative to one or the other, or neither.
And the options are quite stark.
Oppression or tolerance.
All with the capacity to be selectively moral.
There's no obvious high ground.
