Competitive currency devaluations heating up, Gold going nuts, stocks dropping 2% a day, corporate profits are locked up in company vaults, QE3 being tossed around even though 1 and 2 didn't solve anything.. Are we heading into the big one? What's going to save us?

Sorry, Stu - I don't see any meaningful violation here. "The universe is everything you call god" allows that the universe may include more than everything he calls god or only what he calls god hence my "..what we call god is included in the universe". The main point is that if what he...

I'm not suggesting the possibility of that sort of universe/god. If I were the first thing I'd point out is that your statement can be fairly converted to an arbitrary definition:"A real universe is one in which pregnancy can't be magical.". Even if you're careful with your definitions you...

Not to worry.. Stu will come back with a good rejoinder.

Hi, Stu.. So the universe is everything we call god. If the universe is everything we call god then what we call god is included in the universe. If the universe exists then everything included in the universe exists therefore what we call god exists. God as universe, universe as god.

You sure? She hasn't moved a piece yet and she looks like she's trying hard to figure something out - like "Is that what they call a bishop?".

Earnings season: Earnings good, guidance bad. Market goes down.

I doubt the viability of Dawkins' estimate. Any attempt to establish the probability of God as < 100% is based on arbitrary pseudo-science. We can, however, simply redefine God to the point that God is 100% a certainty (eg 'God is the Universe'). In any case who cares what Dawkins says...

The problem is that traders look for logic where there is none. Too many unknown unknowns. "There are many ships at the bottom of the sea. I am quite certain all of them had chart rooms." --Rick Santelli

According to the technicals the market's quite oversold but the market can't hold on to a gain for more than a few hours.

The FED leaked B's speech to their friends on Wall St. That's why we got rumors and a surge up before the selloff when B started yapping.

BTW I`m not implying that FED insiders move the markets by their own buying - just that they leak info to certain key financial institutions.

Forget about individual stocks - what about entire markets making sudden moves just before news is released re interest rates? A lot of people in and around the Fed get the news before it's released. Money's there for the taking; somebody in the system's going to take it.

Why is the obvious not so obvious? Why is the obscure not so obscure? Why are my stocks the only ones going down in a rising market? Why me?

Note that much has been made of the fact that the majority of Madoff's victims were Jews. Why? Why does it matter that a Jew victimized Jews? Is the idea that a Jewish scam artist is expected to victimize only "gentiles" (etymology: 'heathens')? What does this tell us about our perception...

The US will soon be hosting a billion.. Mexicans. Canada will be hosting the 100 million Americans who have fled the US on the eve of Mexico's annexation of their former territories (California, New Mexico, etc.). Just joking. 200 million Mexicans, tops.

The point is that GS presented bundled doomed mortgages as being viable instruments when they KNEW they were worthless. The mortgages were selected for their certainty to fail. It was blatant fraud.

What this? You mean there's a gov't agency taking action against GS? There's a gov't agency that isn't headed by GS alumni? Or is it the same old same old and GS will be exonorated after a mock investigation/trial? There is NO WAY any top GS people will go to jail, no matter how blatant...

So you see only people where I see race and ethnicity - well, aren't you just too sweet for words.. Listen, fool, I see race and ethnic divide where it in fact exists. Toronto is a patchwork of ethnic communities. In many of these communities English is seldom spoken and in some persons of...
