He's ready:

Trepanning was sometimes performed on people who were behaving in a manner that was considered abnormal. In some ancient societies it was believed this released the evil spirits that were to blame. . . . The primary theories for the practice of trepanation in ancient times include spiritual purposes and treatment for epilepsy, head wounds, mental disorders, and headaches, although the latter may be just an unfounded myth. Studies show that trepanation was used on individuals that were diagnosed with epilepsy, scurvy, frontal sinustis, intracranial disorders, diseases, hydrocephaly, and osteitis.

Exactly: Trepanation for Trump.

Anytime someone refers to my employment history of about six months working the front entrance at a bathhouse in a large city, I'm going to give some details.

What if we were to ask about your posting history of being crazier than a fecalhouse rat? Can we get more details?

"You can not force [phenomena like Trump and Kennedy] to happen like has been attempted time and again.
It just has to happen.

God's will, no doubt?

Or random effects? What causes it to just happen?

FTA: In a new book chapter, Cook and coauthor Dominik Stecula outline the five common techniques of science denial.

Fake experts: presenting an unqualified person or institution as a source of credible information
Logical fallacies: arguments where the conclusion doesn't logically follow from the premise
Impossible expectations: demanding unrealistic standards of certainty before acting on the science
Cherry-picking: carefully selecting data that appear to confirm one position while ignoring other data that contradicts that position
Conspiracy theories: an explanation for a situation that rejects the consensus view in favor of a secret plot by powerful groups with a malevolent goal

The article's closing paragraphs:

"In short, despite a few oversimplifications, the scientific descriptions in 'An Inconvenient Truth' have largely withstood the test of time, and the climate impacts outlined in the film have continued to worsen in tandem with rising global temperatures. But international agreements, domestic climate policies, and accelerating deployments of ever-cheaper clean technologies have started to bend the emissions curve downward.

"I think that if Al Gore's 2006 self were to visit 2026, although more action is still needed to meet the Paris targets, he would be encouraged by the progress humanity has made in addressing the climate crisis."

4. The link at 5 comes with details and is not, as yours promotes, an opinion piece.

You've been around here long enough. If you don't want the source skewered, don't post opinion pieces on matters of science.

Unless you're just a troll.

4. Ok. Try this one. From Yale University.

73. I'm curious as well. I don't know much about Talarico, but claims about butchering the gospel when it comes to holding the most compassion for what society has cast away tend to be nonsense.

This long winded post shows my teacher side.

Still awaiting a post of any length that shows your educable side.

I think it was OCUser (if not, my apologies) who said years ago, when her name started becoming more known, "When I hear her name, all I can think of is her hair on my pillow."

That'll be my sexist remark for the day, until the next one.
