The idea of the 'great filter' isn't that a necessary item's absence prevents advancement -- the idea is that through technological advancement, something happens to destroy most civilizations along the way. but stated i

These comments are reminding me why I like analog cars. I do wish I had adaptive cruise control, though.

the fucked up part is that the government is apparently living their life as if you're planning a bank robbery any minute.

I biked every day of the year for about ten years in NYC with an average commute of about six miles each way. This included a ride over either Manhattan or Williamsburg bridge, which get icy faster and stay slushy longer than terrestrial ro

Citation needed. When he sees something he disagrees with he flatly calls it fake and moves on. That's not debate.

I'm not sure I understand your question, or assertion... Mystical experiences change beliefs, ideology, and alter the way we interpret reality in the long-term. Whether or not those beliefs exist in the physical brain, is, I guess, an

I've suddenly found myself very much in favor of the reinstitution of blue laws... and sort of observing Sabbath. Shut down all the machinery once a week.

That'd be pretty to think so, but the wide majority of the Satmar community lives in poverty and is dependent on government benefits. The tendency towards entrepreneurship -- if there is one -- is more likely to be the result of being
