I don't love London.

I'm not sure if homeless Americans would like the weather and the sheep here in Wales...LOL

And I would imagine that people move to Texas, Florida and Arizona for the sunshine.

Not ancient at all.....Victims of the R.C. Church are still alive.....I don't think that you have fully researched this issue.

European colonialists enslaved Africans and Africans enslaved British people (generalisations)....... I don't think that you have fully researched this issue.

You need to prove GOD first....And children learn what they are told....So not by choice...Therefore not consensual.

Yep tithes...10% tax....I thought that you didn't like tax.

And America is similarly democratic to Western Europe (generalisation). And in the true sense of the word, nowhere in Western Europe is a socialist state......You definitely haven't researched this.

In fact...There are no truly socialist states....But let's not digress.

I don't think that you ever really research your ideas.....Which is why you have to eventually resort to insulting a City. LOL.

Nonetheless entertaining though.....Keep up the good work.

The reason for it happening, was an asteroid was on a collision course with Earth and it collided.

I don't think you quite understand how the "Church" acquired it's wealth....There's nothing squeaky clean about the Church.

And there's nothing consensual about brainwashing children with religious non-sense.

And for example, there was nothing consensual about incarcerating unmarried mothers in brutal Roman Catholic sweat shops.


Over here in the U.K. the workhouse was abolished a long time ago........We sort of evolved into a more caring society.

So it's sad to see that certain sectors of U.S. society haven't evolved with the same level of social concern (morality).


I would suggest that if there is one good thing about moderate governance, it's that it freed us from RELIGIOUS TYRANNY.

Eliminating welfare is just fine, until you find yourself in need of welfare.


Nonetheless.....One assumes that welfare evolved because human social morality and ethics evolved.

That is to say that we became more considerate as a species.

Though true.......We certainly  haven't all evolved at the same rate.


Perhaps if people on welfare weren't allowed to vote.......How would that work for you?

If god is real, god is amoral.
This is a reasonable statement.



Is it right or wrong to initiate a Universal sequence of events?

How would a GOD know?

Perhaps this is not the first time......So either, without consideration GOD hasn't bothered to modify things, or GOD has modified things, only with consideration for it's modifications but with disregard for the outcomes of it's modifications.

Of course we like to think that we are a special outcome and therefore should receive special consideration.

But we might just be one of many standard outcomes.


If only GOD wasn't incommunicado, we could just ask it.

So perhaps we do just make this stuff up.

Or perhaps GOD is amoral.

"Testing" if you like.

And Qualia and ritual speak are derived  from internal data management.....And internal data management is a seemingly remarkable, electrochemical process.


Evolved from what?
The same as everything else.......You might feel the need to include a GOD in this process.....And I just see the need for a GOD, as being an inevitable part of this process.

So we acquire, create and transfer data relative to experience.....A. Creates an internal need for a GOD, and also creates an associated database......Z.  Doesn't create an internal need for a GOD, and creates an associated database.....Same electrochemical processing, slightly different conclusions reached. Output will obviously contrast, though neither is irrational in terms of process.....Both are Qualia.

Though neither proves or disproves the existence of an actual GOD.

And spirituality cannot be demonstrated to be more than an internal electro-chemical response to an external stimulus.

Well....... I think that you advocacy of unbiased social inclusion, is both admirable and liberal.

I share the same liberal principles of social inclusivity, but principles grounded in a knowledge acquired from a more moderate/realistic view of human nature.

In so much as the management of acquired data relative to any aspect of our social systems, is subject to an inevitable personal discriminatory process.

We perceive differences, we think, we make relative judgements, we conclude, we output or we store for later.

Which is slow the Government or the Law.

I'm not sure about the U.S.....But here in the U.K. the Government is a separate institution to the Law.


So you want independent Police companies that are regulated by the Government of the day, voluntarily paid for by the people?

Now...I can see a plethora of problems with that system.....But let's just leave it there.

You have state Police regulated by government, rather than government police.

Government Police would be private Police. which would have to be replaced every 4 years. (Hopefully)


So if you have private Policing companies ....Would they be regulated or not?.....And if regulated, then by who?......And who awards the contracts.

And if not regulated, then what?.......Sounds like trouble to me.


And just maybe, the poor conviction rate is not the fault of poor Policing, but perhaps has something to do with the legal system and it's private practitioners.

At any level.

You over-egged the custard there Mr S.

In essence a republic and a democracy can be regarded as one and the same.

Both are systems of government by the population, based upon the principle of elected representatives and leadership.

Of course, sometimes these labels and principles are inappropriately applied or subverted.

Once again you have changed the original hypothesis and created your own......So let's forget about that.


And you like to think and say that you don't make discriminatory judgements......But you do......All the time.....It's a normal function.

And you're typically pigeonholing racism as a Black and White issue.....It could just as easily be a White and White issue or a Black and Black issue etc etc.

And in my line of work I meet people of all hues and sub cultures.....And although like you, I instantly make an internal discriminatory judgement.....I will always treat everyone with the same level of respect.

And it's good to know that you behave in the same way.

As for ideological persuasion....I prefer to be  non-labelist.....But for the sake of this discussion, I would prefer to be regarded as a moderate realist.

And if anyone is professing liberalism here....It's you.

Qualia was your choice of word.....A bit of data output derived of human processes and function.......In the same way that  meaning and spiritual are derived.

Qualia has a very simple definition which aptly exemplifies the process of data acquisition and management.

And for sure, quite an amazing process, but that's just the way things have evolved.

Reading more into it, is no more than the same process though.

In my opinion.

You will have your opinion.....Which in my opinion is also no more  than the same process.

My hypothesis was specific......And I would strongly suggest that the young respectable white guy would naturally lean towards the white neighbourhood. 

Your own social circumstances are not necessarily relevant to the hypothesis, as other considerations such as affordability and social conditioning would need to be considered.

And I would certainly consider the make up of my neighbours....As would you in a nanosecond, almost without thinking.....There's no avoiding obvious differences.

Racism as popularly defined, is not about perception but about subsequent behaviour relative to perception.

Which specific sex culture is leading to transgenderism.
There is really only one culture....Human culture.

And obviously, all aspects of human evolution have given rise to todays culture...I'm not disputing that.

Though at a base level we are still the same basic organisms, which can only be split into three main groups relative to acquired sexuality...1. Male, sperm producer....2. Female, egg producer.......3. Non-Typical Dysfunctional.

My argument is, do transgenders actually belong in categories 1 and 2...... Or in category 3.

So if physical attributes dictate that a person is distinctly 1 or 2, then one can rightly question, wherein does the psychology of transgenderism arise.

Inherent data transfer or acquired data?

Maybe there are environmental implications?

I honestly don't now, and I also think that you don't know.....Perhaps you just toe a popular politically correct line?

What say you?

They deny the necessity of the State, they deny the necessity of taxation.

No State, no taxation, and now only laws that suit them. (Any law is relevant to the State anyway, something of a contradiction  there).

So what's the alternative?

Yep as I continually state.

Apart from the rare physiological anomalies, everyone else falls into one of two categories.....Egg producer or sperm producer.

Modern definitions of gender have arisen from the human relationship and recreational sex culture.


Though 2% means that approximately 158.000.000  humans are intersex, which I would suggest is perhaps not accurate.

Everyone participates in a collective, no matter how remote one places oneself.

And I would suggest that you "involuntarily participate" when it doesn't suit you, and actively participate when it does suit you.

And taxation probably suits no one, but we all reap and expect the rewards of taxation.

Or are you another anarchic, hunter gathering hermit?

The State is a collection of people of which you are one.

Whether or not you choose to actively participate in the management of the State, is up to you.

You know the difference and you don't hate people for it.....Good....Me too.

Though I'm not sure if I hate anyone...Hate is a very powerful emotion, but the word hate is used very cheaply.

Most active racism is just a strongly conditioned aversion relative to perceivable difference.


I'm referring to a more passive, inherent form of racism and discrimination, that inevitably set's you apart from others that you perceive to be different.

So let's say that a young respectable "white" guy was offered a choice between two smart apartments, would he choose the one in the "white" neighbourhood, or the one in the Chinese neighbourhood.

The very fact that we are having this discussion tells me that you perceive difference.

So you will therefore inevitably discriminate. (Think difference)

Though this does not mean to say that you will be disrespectful.

Black haired and blond haired, see how you discriminated there.....Quite interestingly I might add......I've never really  thought of it as a hair issue.


And I've never mentioned fighting, as in physically fighting....Though I expect it does  occur in isolated situations.

Nonetheless, the ongoing race argument is a fight of sorts.....Just depends upon how one chooses to define the word fight.


An inherent internal discriminatory process, is a part of our survival mechanism.

See.....Hug, fight or run....We usually make the decision in a nanosecond.

And the other guy with the darker/lighter sin and the blue hair does exactly the same.
