If thou gazest long into the Pit, the Pit will also gaze into thee

I think that the quiz is idiotic, anyway. The sentence "I have never been raped" is put on the same level of "I didn't have a car at college".

I'd find it much more fun to question why Ham assumes that God would care about killing other intelligent beings. Just because humans are the only ones offered the option of being saved, it doesn't follow that there couldn't be other beings who simply weren't given the option. If the response to th...

Sure however that does not exclude the fact that we are alone because we are first, unique. It's very possible that we are unique, but we may never know for sure. The fraction of the universe which is available to our searches is extremely small compared to the universe as a whole. The duration of ...

And even if it is the case that a particular intelligent alien race decides to stay at home rather than explore, we are talking about generalities - would that apply to all possible intelligent aliens? Might not some decide to explore new territories? Sure. The catch here is that only a fraction of...

That said, you might expect that a sufficiently intelligent race on some planet would eventually be able to develop space travel - perhaps not for themselves but for robots/machines they construct, and use these to explore the universe. You're assuming that an intelligent race is similar enough to ...

Zinnia's rhetoric skills are impeccable, though. There's a new name for this fallacy now, reductio ad Thunderfootium.

A correction: where I wrote "most stars do not have planetary systems" I was wrong. It seems that most stars actually have planets. I based my posts on an old book I read, but apparently recent microlensing observations say that stars with planets area rule, not an exception. My bad. The relevant st...

That Myers post annoys me. Mostly because it's like watching a spoiled brat kick a dying dog, but also because he's implying that there is intelligent life outside the earth when there is no evidence that our planet is not unique. Sure absence of evidence is not evidence of absence (which I hear Ch...

On another note, does anyone know of a major Athiest celebrity that PZ hasn't attacked or berated yet? If so, perhaps we can start a pool as to when PZ will strike. He never said anything about Daniel Dennett, as far as I know. Ham does not believe that there can be alien intelligences. Because, by...

Either she was a gold-digging whore or Maher is an interesting person capable of attracting a high-quality partner.

[SJW mode]She's obviously a victim of Maher's emotional abuse who's too afraid to speak up. Give us three weeks with her alone, and we have ways to help her talk. [/SJW mode]

I apologise for the â€œsugar daddyâ€ comment, which implies that the woman had no say in the relationship. That was not my intent; Bill Maher came off as a sexist pig, but she was actually quite an interesting person. She seemed more intelligent than Maher, thatâ€™s for sure. But if she was such a...

Sasha went on a date? With a woman? Shiiiiiit. My gaydar was well off with that one. Maybe that "someone" was right, and the woman Sasha dated was a trans woman. Which wouldn't make him gay, of course. But in my humble opinion, if you are sexually attracted to pre-op trans women you may not be gay,...

It's California. If a bill like this has any chance of passing anywhere in the USA, it will be here. If the bill is passed by the Senate, do residents of California get to vote on it? I don't know how it works in the US, but in Switzerland all changes to criminal law that weren't approved at a Conf...

Senate Bill 967 is a good example of how toxic SJW ideology is

Does this bill has any good chance of passing? Which politicians are pushing for it?

The one that always baffled me was the whole "Polish people are morons" thing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_joke Some of the early 20th century Polish jokes might have been told originally before World War II in disputed border-regions such as Silesia, suggesting that Polish jokes did not or...

While his thesis is unsupported, I think he makes a good case for something we all know here: religion is only a manifestation of a combination of flaws intrinsic to the human experience, including ingroup bias, outgroup homogeneity bias, confirmation bias, projection, attribution bias, framing eff...

I find it funny that a feminist like PZ is telling women who they're allowed to date. SJWs love to tell you who you're allowed or not allowed to date. Just like they love to tell what you should think, what you should eat, how you should talk, what you should do with your money, etc. They're worse ...

Isn't that a bit of a 'female privilege' argument? I thought life for women on the internet was one long ordeal of harassment, rape threats and PTSD? Only for those who aren't "cute". The problem here is that radfems are incredibly obnoxious and aggressive to everyone ("I'm reading, fuckface", etc,...

Seriously, the top comment on that video is some fool whining that he had to stop it at the word nigger in case his two-year old heard it. It's called Anti-Feminist advice on Rape Culture: Part 1.

That seems to be the MO of most these people. Take a minor-day-to-day slight and magnify it to epic proportions and have a hissy-fit. I'd fire you too. Nobody needs an insecure drama queen shitting up the department on a daily basis. Typical trans SJW reaction to people telling them to be less of a...

Newsflash: according to feminist SJWs, "sexual responsibility" is an MRA code word used for blaming and shaming women. Even when the word is used in a gender neutral context. People can't be responsible for what they do when they have sex unless they're males, in which case they're always responsible.

I've seen this come up several times from other feminists, with the added bonus that men should not be approaching or speaking to women they don't know, since that makes them "potential rapists" and "reinforces rape culture." Feminists want to have the privilege to act like assholes to someone and ...

Were all men in Switzerland always allowed to vote or was there a process of reforms based on land and income first with the majority of working class men denied the vote for centuries like in most other European states? Actually the Constitution of 1848 already had universal male suffrage. Switzer...

Where as most of western Europe waited until after the second world war to give women the right to vote. Switzerland waited a lot more. Women's suffrage was introduced at a federal level only in 1971, although some cantons had it since 1959. Appenzell Innerhoden granted universal women suffrage onl...

Does it sounds crazy, undemocratic, to take away from men the right to vote? Sure! But no more crazy or undemocratic than women until 1921 lacked equal suffrage. Even if this is a joke, what's the logic behind this sentence? "If something crazy and undemocratic happened in the past, we must do it a...

Did he really expect the photographer to say, 'hey -- you trans* whores over there, can I take a picture of your faces & paste them all over newstands across America?' If the photograph showed their face it would have shown their breasts, too, and that would have been seen as vile sexual exploitati...

however, could explain a state of complete, permanent asexuality, one emanating from birth. That's what the SJWs claim it is, which would indeed require de novo mutations.

Or a debilitating pre-birth disease that inhibits the production of the proteins responsible for sexual desire.

The idiot did try to sue Buzz over it. The judge basically said "Yeah, so I'd have punched you too. Stop fucking with 86-year olds" I read somewhere that Sibrel (the idiot in question) was deliberately looking for an excuse to sue either NASA or an astronaut and promote his book. He didn't win the ...

At base, most feminist buzzwords translate as "all men are bastards". I'd add the feminists' logical conclusion of this idea: "all men are bastards and therefore I as a woman deserve special treatment in every context and from everyone". I was having a "discussion" last week with a feminist dude wh...

I'd add the feminists' logical conclusion of this idea: "all men are bastards and therefore I as a woman deserve special treatment in every context and from everyone".

The SJW people, however, are the ones minimizing what happens on Third World places like Islamic countries or India, because ~~multiculturalism~~ it's always the White men's fault anyway and POC are always victims.

FTFY.

I don't understand why that numbfuck Elliot Rogers didn't consider as a better option that "mass shooting", even if he was a little cray-cray He considered it demeaning. Not to the prostitute, to him. In my humble opinion Rodgers didn't give a fuck about sex (pun intended). He didn't want to get la...

Are there no living ones they could WoW? As for Feynman, he chased skirt and figured out a great way to be successful at it. Good for him. And, of course, as far as anyone knows, all those women were willing participants in the horizontal mambo. They were brainwashed by Feynman's dudebro powers and...

Wow, Steve's video is so bad that even its first argument fails. He tries to argue that telling people to leave their doors unlocked is "victim blaming" and "telling them they've done something wrong". The suggestion that rape must be dealt with by telling women to dress more conservatively doesn't ...

So enter the idea of â€œfree bleeding.â€ More of a mindset than it is an action, the idea is, as this blog title gives away, letting ourselves bleed. No judgement, no worries about messiness or cleanliness. Just letting it happen.

Personal hygiene is part of the patriarchy!

I made the mistake of reading the comments to Peezus' Bingo article. There's already someone who compares Feynman's womanizing to Jimmy Savile's rapes.

Execuse me while I bang my head against the wall.

So picking up women is sexist now?

Yes. It's okay when a woman does it (in a Feminist Approved Way) but evil when a man does it . Even if the women were more than happy to fuck him because, let's face it, he was damn good looking man, he was brilliant, he was charming, he was talented and he was down-to-earth. The part in bold sums ...

To McClary's credit, it should be said that some kind of metaphorical description is called for, and even necessary, but I should like to suggest that none will be satisfactory or definitive. This might be true. However,of all metaphorical descriptions about power and strength (and there are plenty...

Well I think the point is that its a woman's health issue. Should women get to decide whether or not men should get prostrate treatment? Penis pumps?

Yes.

Also forgot "none of those things because it's just a field of study, and, moreover, whether some of its practitioners are in fact those things is irrelevant to the question of the field's validity (see ad hominem)." Logical fallacies from SJWs? Surely you're joking, Mr. Aurelius! They would never ...
