hilarious and yet so sad

Great link. Putting aside allegations that IQ is really a measure of education and not intelligence (two very different things), its still a striking chart.

While most people will take this as proof that Bush was the wrong choice (high IQ states supported Kerry), I take a different position: If the majority of Americans are less educated, why SHOULDN'T they get to choose the President?

Don't forget, the notion of the educated minority running the country for the great unwashed borders on facism, feudalism, etc. Not that there's anything wrong with that - I think a little benevolent dictatorship might be good for the country actually.

I LOVE IT!!!

thuggish, i love it..hey guess where the churches and religion are strong? yup, the retard states but we knew that

oh, and guess where the hate, intolerance, xenophobia is? yup, the red retard states...fuck politically correct BS, lets be honest here...

most people who believe and are heavy jesus freaks, the nascar types, are fuckin hate filled, gay bashing morons...in 2004 if u believe in the virgin birth but not evolution u are a FUCKING IDIOT!!!

peace and love

Evolution exists, it's just not Darwinian evolution. Nor is it to say that simply because it exists that is has ever occured in our world.

If simple chance (i.e., blind and dead forces) dictated evolution, then it would always and forever be "one step forward, one step back," so to speak. There's no getting around this merely by acting on blind and dead forces. In short, evolution is infinitely improbable acting on just blind and dead forces, even given and infinite amount of matter and time.

The solution which solves this problem is that evolution is *required by the laws of physics.* In physics it is just as accurate to say that time "flows" backwards as it does "forwards." In short, the end determines the beginning just as much as the beginning determines the end (even within quantum physics, with the the multiverse as a whole).

So there is a point to evolution. In other words, "Not for nothing, folks," as they say. That point is God.

This is not to say that evolution is occuring in our world, since God could have used a finite amount of His infinite amount of computational resources to perfectly render our universe a split second ago, and we would never know it unless God wanted us to know. In short, our world could have been created as it is now a fraction of a second ago, and we would never know it unless God wanted us to know.

Rather it is to say that evolution is a fact of existence *in general.* This is to say, evolution guided by God, guiding universes back into Himself--or more accurately, creating worlds within worlds. As I explained this matter some time ago:

**
If [Prof. Frank] Tipler's Omega Point is a reality, and the known physical laws require that it is, then it is an almost perfect statistical certainty that we exist within it already: the difference between the finite populations that exist before the Omega Point verses the infinite populations that will exist after the Omega Point and inside of it--also the difference between the finite amount of proper time before the Omega Point verses the infinite amount of subjective time inside the Omega Point. Over time an infinite number of levels of implementation would be created, i.e., perfectly simulated Omega Points within perfectly simulated Omega Points. That is, Worlds within Worlds within Worlds, etc., ad infinitum. To invent a new term, we might call these Alpha-Omega Point simulations, i.e., perfectly simulating new universes from the beginning of their Big Bang singularity to their ending in a Big Crunch singularity wherein the final causal-boundary is another Omega Point. These new universes could eventually be populated, if so desired, with pre-existing consciousnesses which have voluntered to undergo a forgetting so that they may have the pleasure of re-experiencing life as a humanoid.

As a physicist, Tipler did not spend much time on this near statistical certainty implied by his Theory (i.e., that we already exist inside the Omega Point). The reason for this is, as a physicist, Tipler wants to keep his Theory a testable theory--but as Tipler well knows, there would be no way for us to test whether or not we already exist as a simulation within the Omega Point unless the Omega Point wanted us to know. Also, if we alreadly exist on a level of implementation inside the Omega Point then the Omega Point Theory would not necessarily be an empirically testable theory from our viewpoint, since the laws of physics, at least from our viewpoint, need not apply should the Omega Point choose to alter the course of events.

It should also be noted that the Omega Point has all the attributes which have been claimed for God. The Omega Point will be omnipresent, as it will be the totality of the universe; the Omega Point will be omniscient, as it will know everything which is possible to be known; the Omega Point will be omnipotent, as it will live for an infinite amount of subjective time, will be able to perfectly render any environment or experience which is not logically contradictory (such as a "square-circle," a stone so large that even It could not move it, or 2+2=5, etc.), and indeed, will be able to resurrect us (assuming we don't exist in the Omega Point already).

And second - in trying to prove how smart you are, you are actually accomplishing the opposite. By writing all that crap that's so hard to get through, you are getting through to a very narrow audience. So while you may know a bunch of big fancy words, your knowledge of effective communication is akin to that of a 3rd grader.

None of your above complaints are relevant to the truth or falsity of my arguments.

Secondly, I am a Christian and a "Jesus freak," so to speak. I used to be a hardcore atheist, until discovered that that position was an untenable one, at which time I had no honest choice but to aknowledge God's existence. As far as bias goes, with your above little childish temper-tantrum you hardly seem to be a model of non-bias in that regard. And I fail to see what bias or non-bias has to do with the truth or falsity of an argument--the truth of an argument stands or falls on its own merit, regardless of who stated it.

As far as me referring to God as a "He," there exist no gender-neutral third-person singular pronoun within the common English language, so I went with the most common convention in this case. Although obviously God is transgendered, and is equally male and female and all sexes in between and to the sides.

[Jamie Michelle]

when u write a post and not cut and paste a lengthy silly piece, then ill read it, and my sincere apolog. if u wrote that...it just seemed very impersonal...

Yes, all of it is my own writings.

lets cut to the chase, albert einstein the smartest guy in recent history was an atheist, if he didnt buy the BS, i dont...he said it best (despite tons of people trying to take his statement about god and dice out of context):

Einstein wasn't the smartest guy in recent history. It turns out that Einstein stole "his" famous E=mc^2 equation from an Itallian physicist who published the equation earlier. Also, Einstein was a socialist, so simply because he may have been smart in one department (although even this is debatable, as apparently his wife helped him with a lot of his work) doesn't necessarily make one smart in other departments.

Also, physics had to advance before the Omega Point Theory could be developed. For a specific example, the Bekenstein Bound had yet to be formulated and proved in Einstein's day, of which is a vital part of the physical proof of the Omega Point (see M. Schiffer and J. D. Bekenstein, "Proof of the Quantum Bound on Specific Entropy for Free Fields," Physical Review D39, 1109-1115 [1989]).

Einstien spent his whole life trying to prove that there are LAWS to this universe, things that must occur constantly without deviation...if there was a god who could be prayed to to reverse or disregard these laws, it goes against the very grain and concept of these laws..thus there can be no personal god, only science...

its not a coincidence that religion exists most heavily in areas with little education and hate...its the opiate of the masses and something for poor suckers to hang their hat on...

The ruling elite have intentionally distorted religion for their own gain and power. The cause isn't the existence of religion, but the existence of government.

[speck]

I find it kinda funny that with your high IQ(Do I presume too much?) you were unable to locate the link on the very same page that fairly effectively debunks the result of the study you cite.

People who call others idiots for political views without explaining why tend not to be very bright.

For instance, I can effectively call someone an idiot if they state something like "all the Bush tax cuts go to the wealthy" because sufficient factual evidence exists to prove that statement false. Furthermore, most of that evidence is readily available to people(when they do their federal income taxes each year) and therefore people ought to know better than to make a statement of that nature.

However, I cannot effectively call someone an idiot if they make a statement such as "I do not believe that god exists" or " I believe that war is wrong". The reason that I cannot call that person an idiot is that there is significant evidence that supports both sides of these arguments. I can DEBATE a person on these ideas, and perhaps persuade them to my side of the argument. But I have no inclination to assault them verbally for holding views that might be opposite mine.

[GroobySteven]

Are you saying that because Einstein believed in Socialism, that doesn't make him smart?
What do you base that theory on?
seanchai

[Jamie Michelle]

The truth is that both Republicans and Democrats are ignorant (I won't say "idiots," as some others here have done, as that word seems to speak towards inate intelligence, whereas ignorance simply denotes lack of knowledge).

Kerry is a cousin of Bush, and they are both members in the Brotherhood of Death (a.k.a. the Order of Skull & Bones). Their agendas are the same, i.e., the establishment of their self-termed New World Order.

A vote for Kerry was a vote for Bush, and vice versa. Whichever one wins, they both win.

But under U.S. law, George Bush, Jr. qualifies for execution for mass-murderous high treason. And again, George Bush, Jr., as with all Presidents, is just a puppet of the globalist elite--but even so, he is still responsible for his own intentional complicity in the 9/11 attacks.

Certain segments of the White House were certainly intentionally complicit in the U.S. government-staged 9/11 PsyOp. Bush, Jr. certainly was. The below is merely some of the evidence which proves this.

In the case of the 9/11 attacks the intentional complicity certainly goes all the way up to Bush, Jr. Bush obviously knew that he was in no danger during the photo op at Booker Elementary School, even though he knew that the first jet crash into the WTC was an intentional attack and had been told that before the photo op even began [see Note A below], i.e., long before Andy Card wispered in his ear supposedly concerning the second jet crash into the WTC. Keep in mind that this photo op was widely publicized in the news, so if the attacks had been by terrorists not under the control of the U.S. government then Bush would have been putting himself and a whole bunch of elementary school-children in mortal danger by staying there. But of course, he knew that he was never in any danger by staying there.

As WhatReallyHappened.com recently commented:

Now that George W. Bush is disappointed to learn that the rah-rah Ronald Reagan funeral coverage won't be extended until the November election -- or the capture of Osama bin Laden, whichever comes first -- it is time to look back at his least Reaganesque moment...If you want to see the video of that moment, you have to go to alternative Web sites, or see Moore's film.

If you cannot wait for Moor's film, that video fo Bush just sitting there while the US is under attack is HERE. http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/schoolvideo.html But contrary to Antonia's view, this video reveals more than just an immobile Bush. After Andy Card informs Bush of that second plane impact, Andy just turns and leaves, PROVING THAT ANDY CARD ALREADY KNEW BUSH WAS NOT GOING TO SAY OR DO ANYTHING AT THAT MOMENT. - M. R.
*

That is, Andy Card, after wispering in Bush's ear about the second jet crash into the WTC (as we're told), doesn't even wait to see if Bush was going to say anything back to him. And of course, Bush doesn't say or do anything concerning the attacks, but simply continues on with the photo op. So the whole wispering in the ear thing was scripted beforehand (meaning they knew a second strike on the WTC was coming).

In addition, we have Bush, Jr.'s Presidential administration's own official statements regarding how helpful "a new Pearl Harbor" type of event would be for their agenda.

Below is the relevant excerpt from the document "Rebuilding America's Defenses--Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century: A Report of The Project for the New American Century," September 2000 ( http://www.newamericancentury.org/Re...asDefenses.pdf ):

Page 51 (or 63 in the PDF browser):

"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event--like a new Pearl Harbor."

And they got their "new Pearl Harbor" twelve months later. How very fortunate for them and their globe-dominating "Project."

Note A to the above:

---

George Bush Jr.'s response illustrated a similar indifference. The New York Press continues to note that meanwhile, in Florida, "just as President Bush was about to leave his hotel he was told about the attack on the first WTC tower. He was asked by a reporter if he knew what was going on in New York." ABC News has confirmed this. John Cochran, who was covering the President's trip, informed Peter Jennings on ABC TV:

"He [the President] got out of his hotel suite this morning, was about to leave, reporters saw the White House chief of staff, Andy Card, whisper into his ear. The reporter said to the president, 'Do you know what's going on in New York?' He said he did, and he said he will have something about it [i.e. a statement] later."[353]

As the Press reports, "He said he did, and then went to an elementary school in Sarasota to read to children."[354] Another statement from Vice-President Cheney provides further insight into this: "The Secret Service has an arrangement with the FAA. They had open lines after the World Trade Center was ..." Cheney never finished his sentence, but it is obvious that he had meant to say something along the lines of "hit."[355]

Those who control the U.S. government didn't just know in advance and intentionally let the 9/11 attacks happen as a Hegelian dialectical PsyOp in order to obtain more power and control--they funded, shepherded, trained and protected the terrorists every step of the way. They didn't just intentionally let it happen: they made it happen.

The below post by me contains the November 10, 2003 article "September 11--Islamic Jihad or Another Northwoods?" by Tim Howells, Ph.D., which is a very good, short introduction to just some of the more damning mainstream major media articles and U.S. government primary documentation which proves up one side and down the other that the 9/11 attacks and the following anthrax attacks were a Hegelian dialectical PsyOp staged by the U.S. government as a pretext in order to obtain more power and control. I append my own additional end-notes at the conclusion of Dr. Howells' article, in order to add further mainstream documentation.

Are you saying that because Einstein believed in Socialism, that doesn't make him smart?
What do you base that theory on?
seanchai

It certainly means that he wasn't smart on the subject of politics and economics, unless I am to believe that he actually knew that socialism was a total scam and power-grab and that its economics were unworkable, but that he promoted it for nefarious reasons. What I base this on is economics, as well as political theory, and political history.
