    Fiat currency and fractional reserve banking

    All currency is fiat. Pegging a currency to a commodity boils down to the government promising that the currency will be backed. They can always just print more money. All currency is promissory in nature. Even coinage; it is a simple matter of mixing the gold with another metal. Fiat currency...

    Why You Should Be Wary Of "the Secret!"

    There is no hope for people that cannot see the difference between science and pseudoscience between reason and irrationalism. Atheism is not supported by science anymore than theism is. What part of we don't know and it not possible to know, from a scientific viewpoint, do you not understand?

    I paid for 'the Secret'

    Again what is this Battle of the Loonies? The first guy says the Secret is bunk because of the spiritual either and rebound. The second guy says that all the universe is is thoughts (which I showed him links pointing out two major fallacies that he still believes). Then the third guy says...

    Why You Should Be Wary Of "the Secret!"

    You got me I was typing fast and made a typo. I guess Thor and his karma hammer finally got me. But... you say that I got nothing but it is obvious that you can't deliver on the goods you promise. The funny thing is you could have just said 'my beliefs are legit I'm just not powerful or...

    Why You Should Be Wary Of "the Secret!"

    I picked a site with a concise yet accurate presentation. There are plenty of more sources that you can look up yourself that destroy this 10% of your brain bollocks. But what does any of this matter? Why do you ignore the simple test that can be performed to prove you are right. It should...

    Why You Should Be Wary Of "the Secret!"

    It isn't possible to prove that something isn't so. I can't prove that the mythical powers you describe aren't real not because they are real simply because you can't prove something doesn't exist. Why would I have to train my mind when you can simply prove that your mind works by doing a...

    Why You Should Be Wary Of "the Secret!"

    I side stepped something that was totally illogical. Mind masters agree that mind mastery is possible, uh ok. Guess what Christian monks after years of meditation agree that Christianity is legit. Buddhist monks after years of meditation agree that Buddhism rocks... You have neatly side...

    Why You Should Be Wary Of "the Secret!"

    Uh... why should my mind have to be trained so that you can use your mind powers? Use your mind powers to put a star on my front door and I will believe you. Simple. Or is all this stuff really just a bunch of mumbo-jumbo placebo self-delusion?

    Why You Should Be Wary Of "the Secret!"

    Does your universe preclude you from providing me with the evidences that would persuade me?
