Yep, he's a major dumbass, no doubt about it.

For each of us being at least thrice as smart and at least five times more decent than you ... yeah, that sounds right. :p

+10 Moreover, jem seems not to get it that he is arguing for Deism, not for Christianity. Even if he succeeded in establishing evidence for Deism, how does he plan to cross the immeasurable chasm between that and his believed Jesus the Messiah?

If by 50/50 you mean zero expectation then yes, the smart move is no move. This is why the Kelly fraction for a zero-expectation scenario is itself zero. Depends. If by long-term you mean long-term successful, then such a trader is either very lucky or very skillful. Q2 - not everybody is...

Don't talk out of your ass and pretend like it's my problem. The bottom line is this: how can you be outraged (or feign outrage) over Benghazi and not be outraged by this:

It's just a pic that's been around for a while. If some people find it attractive, that's their issue, not mine. I find it telling that you ignored my comments on the article itself. Seems to me that's the far more reasonable criticism of Rolling Stone. If the article told us nothing new...

Fortunately I don't look at pics of dudes and try to gage how attractive they are. Now if you have a chick cover you want to discuss, I might have something to contribute. :D But the cover aside, I've heard from a reliable source that the article provides absolutely no insights. It's just...

+100 Outstanding post.

Jodi Arias provided some tasty eye candy. :D Total psycho though. :(

I am 10 that IF he said it, he was quoting Myers, probably with attribution, but some idiot along the way falsely attributed it to Einstein. I am 9 that he never said it at all, given the abundance of other quotes misattributed to him, so why should this one be any different other than wishful...

Thanks, stu :)

No you're just too ashamed to admit that your "Einstein quote'' has all the validity of young George Washington cutting down a cherry tree. Only a lawyer, or perhaps only a shyster, would go to this extreme to try to hold on to a bogus quote.

I know you don't have much common sense but this is still a bit surprising. I link to a book citing the quote by Myers back in 1912. The earliest cite you can come up with is 1979, decades after Einstein's death. So either your 1979 source is bullshit, or Einstein was plagiarizing...

He can't even give the source for his alleged quote. Patently ridiculous.

This is typical shyster horseshit. And you are ridiculous. I've posted a source attributing the quote to someone else. You've posted no source for your alleged Einstein quote. Ergo, you have lost the argument.

You are correct, modern libertarians are morons or worse.

It's right there on the first page. How could you miss it?

:)

Do you know how to click on a link? It's right there. The quote is real but Einstein didn't say it, which pretty much deflates the heavy significance you tried to pump into it by saying/insinuating "the great Einstein said thus and thus.". No, somebody else (a non scientist) said thus and...

Calling for peace is only "purely political" to those with purely political reasons for seeing it that way. So if Sharpton and Jackson don't immediately get on jet planes and fly to LA, they can't be serious? You should see a psychiatrist for your delusional worldview.
