And corporations who abort jobs soak up subsidies.

The concentration of power, the dictation of rights and the mistreatment en mass is their point.

They didn't frame a constitution, but an oligarchy safety net.

I don't care if black people like Thomas or not. It really isn't relevant one way or the other. It's not a popularity contest being on the supreme court.
Look at how low it gets........
"He seemed to revel in it"
and
"he even appeared to derive weird pleasure"
are great examples of what I'm talking about. Not substance. Rather, attempting to assign pleasure to the man when in fact they have zero clue what pleasure Thomas gets from anything.
Sure, there is plenty to criticize about the man and fair criticism to be sure.
But it always boils down to the comments I just referenced.
It's a very unhealthy way to view the man.....to assign perverse pleasure to him. That's taking it too far which is why I don't care what black people think about him.

Florida just straight up banning Christian literature. You'd think all the religious loonies would be upset about removing Christian books from schools.

Mind blown here. Raising a goddamn lion in an apartment is Christian literature? Are the two guys missionaries when they go to Africa? If it were a book about Florida Men or New Yorkers, that'd make much more senes.

These missionaries are essentially being tossed onto a bonfire of other literature right here in the US.

This saves Africa time - evangelicals are demonstrating their efficiency. :]

Truth,
Liberal public schools teach God is made up by delusional people.
Why not have a private school that's teach God is real?

Do you mean another discipline, like anthropology?

Religious studies can be included in sociology I would imagine, is that what you are referring to?

I can see many religious teachers open to all every Sunday. Are those the places that teach what you want taught?

When you say "made up", you are referring to archeological studies that might conflict or support a religious presence?

Much of your interest in 2000 year old presence is supported by diving into the roots of cultures.

The existence of all kinds of people is supported and explored by Western orthodoxy. Except for one. The eighteen years of travel and interactions never seems worthy of more serious cultural studies? I'm shocked how "believers" cannot accept more than one perspective when you're own doctrine is so varied in origin.

The decent onto the surface shows it shambling down the ramp, then abruptly stops at the tiny crater. The next part shows it having crossed already. Why snip that tiny bit out from every video? Does it take three weeks to render?

Speaking of which, does anyone have any idea why we never see Pragyaan go over a crater? Would only 1/6 of the audience appreciate that?

So. it seems his begging for mercy was just an act, nothing more.
And he still seems to be unrepentant for what he did, or more specifically, the cult leader he chose to follow without question.
That is one thing I have never understood about cults.
How do their leaders seem to be able to assert such control over those who follow the cult leader?
Why does charisma seem to be so much more important to the followers that what, or who, they are following?

I forget the year, but when I saw Sting at the new amphitheater in Salem someone sent him a message in a loaf of bread. Passing hand-to-hand, once it reached the stage he actually read it. What a great guy, I dig his enthusiasm for baroque.

Where is the actual footage from the lander?

"Why are you so willing to NOT know if it was a leak?"
Mostly due to the irrelevancy.
Why are Deplorables so obsessed with something they have no control over?
In terms of the public health response -- masking, social distancing, vaccination -- it's not actionable information.

A reply from the extensive article which appears to miss key elements:

.. It is one thing to point out the relative paucity of viruses in labs compared to in nature (as Palmer does), however, my understanding is that it seems to be unique with Cov2 that, unlike all the other major outbreaks of animal-to-human viruses, Cov2 has a 'missing link' problem. While we have tracked down prior cases of animals infected with immediate relatives of these other viruses, that has not occurred with Cov2.

The Huanan market seems to me to be a fairly obvious red herring. An outbreak in that market at the end of December 2019 seems unlikely to be the initial spreader event.

Re-testing of blood samples in the US from early January showed antibodies to Cov2 already present in a few different US states. Consequently some of Palmer's argument for the lower likelihood of a lab leak appears to rely heavily on a timeline which seems unlikely.
