And I think we can't forget in the analysis of the mass migration phenomenom and islamization of europe the correlation between this fact and the mess American put since 1979 in their countries...
And we don't must to forget too the british and french colonization... sort of backlash...
kaik : More power to the Left only will signify deep economic, cultural, and political decline of European states
Since 50 years, we are, in Europe, under clearly right conservative power. And we are in deep economic, cultural and political decline.
But I agree, that Left won't do better! But they won't do worse neither.
truth is absolute.
there is no such thing as 2=1 or 1=2.. if one starts out with the equation 2=1, one has already failed.. truth = truth.
you cannot change whether something is truth or not.. when the organization teaches one thing as a truth (ex.
Truth is absolute in the sense that it does not change depending on who is talking. Opinions do change depending on who is talking.
Yep. Good point! But I think we must to restrain a little this point to be totally accurate:
Truth is absolute in the sense that it does not change depending on who is talking and from where perspective he's talking.
jan used a famous scientist to garner misleading support for creation, quoting rama singh as saying "the opposition to evolution goes beyond religious fundamentalism and includes a great many people from educated sections of the population.
2015 jan p.3) whilst the quote is accurate, it misrepresents singh's intention.
singh continues in the same paragraph, "there are several reasons why facts of evolution are not easily comprehensible by the general masses.
There is not such thing in America like the french "droit de réponse"?
It would be quite funny!
In fact the "droit de réponse" (can be translated by "answering right" in english)is a legal right for each incriminated person. In that particular case, on a France-based media, they (the publisher of Awake) will be in obligation to reproduce integrally this letter in the next Awake.
Would be funny.
In some things, yes. In another, no.
I became more tolérant with people, because, clearly I understand perfectly what's to be lost in a seducing ideology
But I became extremely intolerant at all kind of ideology, religious, political or economical.
But Is that really immoral?
in the discussion about race i adopted a position i am not entirely comfortable with.
i think there is a sense in which it is useful to distinguish categories of description that can be fruitfully defended (apples and bananas) and those that cannot (caucasian or other racial descriptions for example).
but there is a more fundamental sense in which i believe that everything is socially constructed, every single line you can think of.
A religious believer says we just have to believe that God knows what he's talking about.
No, only monotheist believers. And only those who believe at a personal God among them.
A scientific believer says we just have to trust that empirical methods deliver answers corresponding to the world in itself.
No! Not a single scientific will say "I am empirist"....

How can you prove that humans are capable of asking and answering questions about the world in itself that make more sense than the dog who asks how the cupboard produces food?
but the question of the cupboard making food makes sense...

Science assumes human rationality is the measure of everything
NO

In other words what if the question itself betrays a misunderstanding of reality so fundamental that we cannot even begin to understand how the question distorts the world in itself that it seeks to explain?
The first question, distort or not, doesn't have importance. The important is how you handle the question :
* Like religious people, you stay on this first question, rejecting all facts discordant
* Like scientific people, you can change the question according to the new facts...
What is important is not really from where you start, but where you go!
