It's been my theory from day one that his purpose is to act as a carbon-offsetting mechanism for PZ's air travel to conferences. The A+theism environmentalism platform isn't very convincing at the moment.Dick Strawkins wrote:What was the point of that post by Chris Clarke?
I thought he was brought on board by Peezuz to write some more environmentally orientated articles. This current one is like PZ-lite on social justice warrior mode. He complains about MRAs not recognizing evidence and neglects to add any evidence of his own to the entire post. I guess it was more a rant about MRAs in general but it's a silly idea to complain about others not accepting evidence when all you are offering yourself is a whiney anecdote.

An 'angry vagina workshop'. Seriously? I could understand if it was an angry vagina conference, but what does it have to do with atheism/skepticism?

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Thanks muchly for the link and the data sets to download.barkbarkwoof wrote:The raw data for the National Crime Victimization Survey are available via NACJD. The raw set breaks down rape vs. sexual assault into separate variables.
In the DS4 incident data set, V4094 records rape, V4095 records attempted rape and V4096 records sexual assault. V4241 and V4256 can be used to crosstab to find rapes perpetrated by attackers unknown to the victim.
Unfortunately, downloading the data requires registration, the DS4 data set is 50MB, and the survey is weighted. Calculating the rate of stranger rape from the data available is nontrivial and would require either access to statistics software ($$$$$) or a spreadsheet and a fair bit of skill.
Out of curiosity though, or as a point of reference: what do you mean by “weighted†in that case? Some extrapolations or assumptions made? Any indications as to exactly how they are weighted?
Thanks.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Weighted sampling is a statistical technique used to compensate for non random sampling within a survey. Sample weights must be taken into account when analyzing a weighted survey or the results will be meaningless.Steersman wrote:Out of curiosity though, or as a point of reference: what do you mean by “weighted†in that case? Some extrapolations or assumptions made? Any indications as to exactly how they are weighted?
In this case, the dataset states that 17 out of 570 respondents report having been raped but the rate of rape is not 17/570 =~ 2.9% because that calculation implicitly assumes that all 570 responses are of equal weight (equally important). Getting the correct result means either doing stats math that's above my education or using a tool, such as SPSS, that can handle weighting automatically. The weight of every sample must be considered to get the right answer.
The survey documentation goes into detail about how the samples are weighted and which variables are used to find each sample weight.
Anyone with either a better stats background or access to stats software can figure this out but it's not trivial to do without either.

Thanks to Spence for proving my approximation from before. I had a more elegant proof, of course, but it wouldn't fit in the margins...

Apart from being the leading contender for this week’s Godwin Awards, it should be obvious, at least to those not committed to the same agenda, that there’s just a small amount of disparity between the elements of your own “parallel-logic†analogy: X [“go die in a fireâ€; “have a porcupine shoved up your assâ€; "too ugly to be raped"; "if I were a woman, I'd kick you in the cunt"] = “The Holocaustâ€.

The theists have a nice grip on the military. "God, Country, Corps" is what I heard plenty during my time in. If DADT got overturned, I don't see why this wouldn't be though. This being a health care issue, it's really up to the civilian leadership. What control does the lay service person have over their healthcare options? Not enough to paint them as misogynists, or responsible for this policy...

And what the hell do Wooly's actions have to do with Becky's?
You, perchance, have a psychiatry degree or a photocopy of that assessment from one? Links to chapter and verse proving that case beyond a shadow of a doubt? As the mantra frequently used by skeptics has it, those making the claims have to provide the evidence. Unless maybe you too think that our justice system should be changed to “guilty until proven innocent†– and by the defendant to boot ....In this case believing Becky's blog - the babblings of a proven chronic liar and criminal sociopath.
Once again, it is you making that claim and you’re the one who has to provide the evidence – not me, not anyone else. If you actually have any of that – and aren’t just blowing smoke out of your arse – then I’ll certainly consider calling Watson on that in that post of hers – providing that Amy hasn’t blocked me at the same time as she deleted some of my posts in that dog-and-pony thread of hers. But you could presumably have done that yourself as I at least have posted links to Watson’s article and quoted from it several times over the last couple of months.She did not correct it in "minutes" - but after a few weeks of laughter as the community slowly discovered her mindless, uneducated, ill-read stupidity. She eventually owned up to being an abject moron, because it could no longer be dismissed or laughed off, and only then corrected it - then blogged about how "cruel" people like us are and how much we exaggerate to pick on her over trivia. She added that she corrected "minutes" later precisely for uncritical, propaganda eating buffoons like you.
Although maybe you missed them because you had your head in the sand, sorry, because of your filter. I wonder whether you realize how ridiculous that is and how similar it is to the behaviour of religious fundamentalists: because you don’t see something that means it doesn’t exist nor does the audience and their reactions to that “policy� ....
I thought I might get an unbiased view here on a number of topics which, while generally the case, certainly isn’t entirely so. Again: your claim; you have to provide the evidence. I generally have other fish to fry and don’t have a lot of time to waste on the claims of those who wish to be coy about them or play games with them. Rather than wasting the time of both of us, not to mention those of the audience who might be interested in the credibility of those posting here, you could have used my “apparently†as a teaching moment to provide the relevant links to further discredit Watson. Instead of playing the victim, the put-upon “keeper of the faith†....Why are you here? You have no interest in reality and are too fucking lazy to fire up a search engine and research your own questions.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Big trouble in my neck of the woods...
'Around the 13th of September 2012. Freethoughtblogs posted this article , referring to a comments by a commentariat member named 'trinioler' also know as Justin Trinioler, Scribe for the A+ movement. http://freethoughtblogs.com/butterflies ... oler-said/
At the time I did not know that it referred to us. Through some odd circumstances I found out own Zena Ryder recently responded to said article, so I can only guess that it is about our local CFI. http://freethoughtblogs.com/butterflies ... -responds/
So I did a little google-fu and with some backchannel help I found out who 'trinioler' is...our very own Tyler Liang.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
We get blamed for everything. I wouldn't be surprised if they accuse us of the Libyan attack, the bombing of the World Trade Center, and even the crusades (bet you thought I'd go for the Holocaust - well, Ophie might). Who is Tyler Lang, and why should we care what he does? He doesn't represent anyone here, I mean - if he did something shitty, then bad on him, but we don't even need anything to happen to get blamed. Aunt Ophie will go to the grave screaming about MRAs and kicks to the cunt, and will continue to do so even if we were completely vindicated in the eyes of everyone else. I didn't read any of the links, so I can't make any comment on what this kid did. I did see Ophies post, and if he did anything with CFI I could care less - they don't represent me or want atheists like myself in their organization, so I return the favor by ignoring them.Mr Danksworth wrote:Big trouble in my neck of the woods...

Sorry if this seems a bit short - I'm currently feeling lousy and in the can thanks to (I hope) switching meds for my acid reflux, debating if I need to use yet another sick day and push my test review (and test) back a day for my kids.
Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
No ETA, but if he did do something horrible and you did catch him at it, then I do have to say good job on that. Don't count on getting any accolades from the FftBunch, although if you post stuff here, they are guaranteed to get the info - unless they got it from you already, that is.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
The weird thing is that Benson's post that you linked to (here) complains that the community has divided in a way that she didn't want to happen, and that is somehow proof that the divisiveness of the baboons was necessary. (Oh and of course blames the slymepit for it all, while at the same time calling for more divisiveness)Mr Danksworth wrote:This little shit has been manufacturing non-troversy for over a year.

Guess that must be something to do with the parallel logic she's been smoking.
Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Not quite sure that it was a wise idea to have outed trinioler- assuming that that is the case, particularly considering the flack that Justin Vacula took just for posting Surly Amy’s address.Mr Danksworth wrote:Big trouble in my neck of the woods...

Not quite sure what you’re referring to there with that “blatantly misrepresentedâ€, but maybe it’s related to this post by notanasshole:How does everyone feel about being blatantly misrepresented like that? Unfortunately, I am not surprised a such underhanded tactics.'
Apart from being a little obscure – are all of the “slyme pitters†engaged in nefarious, fifth-column activities in other spheres of influence? – was that some sort of accusation that one of those spheres included that CFI branch which was being subjected to a full-court press of harassment by the entire brigade of said pitters? [How come I didn’t get an invitation?]Let’s refresh our memories about what, exactly, “trinioler saidâ€.
Okay, so, people believe that the slyme pitters are just trolls on “the internetâ€. Well, disabuse yourselves of that notion.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
I think, although I might be mistaken, that Mr Danksworth was quoting someone. There are those apostrophes at the beginning and end of the chapter.
A little aside: I think Franc may have to call Randi and collect his prize. Prescience from February 2011:

Interesting article by franc, this in particular leaping out at me:
Though one might point out that franc was somewhat reluctant to provide evidence for his claim about Watson’s “minutes†comment ...Nor do I think Plait ever considered that in the space of 31 minutes and 7 seconds he effectively undid what precious little was left of the great Age of Enlightenment Freethought / Humanist legacy. In one swoop, the new paradigm became that:evidence if it’s going to upset anyone.
- yes, people do have the right to not be offended,
yes, people do have the right to expect that you will curtail your language and temper your opinions for the sake of their precious and sacrosanct “feelingsâ€, and
conversely, you have forfeited all of your rights to demand outrageous statements be supported by empirical

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Maybe this could be of some help? I will have to go back up the thread to be sure what you are talking about. Please keep in mind that you are on Franc's ignore list, so he may not read your requests for evidence.Steersman wrote: *snip*

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Thanks for the link to the other Grey Lining post. However still doesn’t look like a smoking gun to me. The upload date on the YouTube video in Watson’s post [September 29, 2011] shows September 9, 2011, but I can’t view it at the moment [have to install a newer version of Flash Player and running out of time] so I can’t determine whether she might have actually changed it “within minutes†as she is claiming and as franc is disputing ...Phil_Giordana_FCD wrote:Maybe this could be of some help?

Though I wasn’t really expecting much of a response from him – it was just a bit of a friendly needle aimed in his direction ... :-)
But time to call it a day; night all ...
Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
He can do what everyone else here does - pull his fucking finger out and look up the fucking evidence himself instead of waiting for it to be hand delivered on a silver spoon.

Beyond belief that this peabrain presents blogs from Skepchick as "evidence".

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
What I remember is we all had a few good laughs about the Galileo stuff for a couple of weeks before the retraction came out. Investigating the ERV archives might help solve the "issue", but personaly, I don't give a flying rat's ass.

Who the hell seriously believes that Rebecca Watson is any sort of expert on religion or science. She is bound to get things wrong. She is also stubborn and arrogant and will try to avoid giving the impression that she is fallible - but she's hardly the only one like this, it's common across the skeptical community, on both sides (although one would have to admit a certain concentration of it eminating from the Minessota mafia - Peezus, Laden and Svan).
Move on and look for something serious to get worked up about.
Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
It did take weeks. And the admission of error was only made grudgingly as a last resort. But of course that's all a big fat lie - the real truth is what Steersman presented here: the Skepchick blog version, which is guaranteed truthful, error free, never based on anecdote and so unquestionable that getting a second reference to support it is only for losers (and also insulting to people's intelligence).Phil_Giordana_FCD wrote:What I remember is we all had a few good laughs about the Galileo stuff for a couple of weeks before the retraction came out.
