Abbas Rejects Calling Israel a Jewish State -... →
History
OK, people, if Abbas cannot accept Israel as a Jewish state, where laws some 6500 years old have been refined into the democratic process where Arabs are accepted as equals in the Knesset and are represented, the THERE IS NO PALESTINIAN STATE POSSIBLE TO BE RECOGNIZED. The purpose of a so-called state doesn’t exist. They might as well become Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Lebanon...

“We now have the first direct proof that the young universe was teeming with exploding stars and newly-born black holes only a few hundred million years after the Big Bang,” he said. He is Edo Berger of the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
Are we sure it was ‘the’ Big Bang or maybe ‘a’ pretty big bang? That’s were Science is still...

Update: CBS news: ‘The flyover — apparently ordered by the White House Office of Military Affairs so it would have souvenir photos of Air Force One with the Statue of Liberty in the background — had President Obama seeing red.’ -white and blue?

Why can’t we just make Gitmo a ‘care center’, better food, hugs and a few mullahs like Farrakan to teach the prisoners that they just need mommy’s and daddy’s permission and Hussein Obama’s permission to go Jew-killing, and other Jihad activities like those who-aren’t-us-and-might-be-Jew-friend killing. Maybe wack some Shia, too,...

Comment: I was a little tough on Lutherans, and didn’t mean to ignore Pope Alexander VI, who was trying to murder Luther, and Pope Adrien IV, who kindly gave Ireland to my great… you know Anglo Bro.

Finally, Diogenes, we have found an honest man. ‘Consensus Science makes no sense’. Truth is not elected, it is constructed using goodness (honesty), righteousness (data), and truth emerges in that struggle. That’s why they have double-blind studies, placebos… man tends to self-fulfill his own prophecies.
But follow the money and notice how...

Well, just wanted to put in that CH4, methane, is 25 times as potent as CO2. Is that im-potent? Or I m Potent? 2nd one. Wham!
Now some people realize that the 354 million cubic miles of ocean have some impact on the global condition. Maybe more than my exhaling CO2 and my butt’s CH4. Stay with me here: as we kill off the estuaries (Florida...

Dedicated to the serious review of what we believe we are responsible for. Free will or just ‘Free Willy’? We see what lights up eyes in children; it is kindness; it is the freedom to suspend our disbelief, when magic, and fantastic visit us.

Salmon Rushdie’s ‘Satanic Verses’ comes to mind.

History
I like Michael Totten’s style. Pay for news that you can read for free. Here, when Hezzbolah speaks to its own of nukes, maybe it is time to prepare. There is so much hate built up and so little hate of hate, and not many, including my nearly 60 year old butt has had to endure a memory of a mushroom cloud. I missed it by 4 years and about 12,000 miles, thank you very much.

It occurs to me that even with the end of say slavery, the brutality does not end. It may be diminished and it is not appeased, therefore it is a step ahead. Today, brutality continues, even with no market for the captured victims. Darfur, Somalia, Tutsies, Ivory Coast, Mideast. Some might argue, it is even more brutal now, with video of Hamas using children as shields...
Nobility Obligates or Fr. Noblesse Oblige
History
As a child, I perhaps was not reminded enough of what I was given. Nobility is a state of grace, self given perhaps, but recognizes that they are blessed with a history, an of of which has the potential of being as good as the past… or at least as wise as not to repeat it.
