Money: Philosophy vs. Mathmatics. 
  I think I understand it if math says: 'Money is nothing' or rather 'nothingness with substance'... so it I go to a strip club... I'm getting something for nothing, right? I get something... the attention of a 'spontaneous' girl and she wants 'nothing' in return for it... That does work... I'm ok with it but... philosophy's perspective is that it is your... more »

90% of current US debt can be attributed three Republican presidents 
  ...Ya think that after all these years Repugs could have had a change of heart? Maybe rightards really _are_ worried about deficits as well as granny getting kicked off federal state cooperative programs. On the other hand they could just be bat crap insane. Bret Cahill

Think how much more your Father loves you! 
  We have always considered the teachings of Jesus most suspect. One of the most amusing statements he made was something like "See how the birds are clothed and fed and then think how much more your Father loves you." (Your Father here meaning his Daddy). If you look at this statement using your brain and... more »

What is energy?

Sets as the limit of mathematical expression 
  Is the mathematical set {} a sign, a glyph, a drawing... or what? Some mathematics is pure syntax. For example, when we derive "1 = 2 - 1" from "1 + 1 = 2". Here the signs speak for themselves as it were, they balance themselves on the paper in front of us. In this case, the balance rule is "change sides, change signs".... more »

Christianity as Deliberate Lie and Political Dominance Strategy 
  I have written a new theory called 'CPD' (Christianity as Deliberate Lie and Political Dominance Strategy) that purports to explain Christianity as a systematically manipulative lie used to derive free labor from its target group and reduce the target group's power of resistance. According to this theory, members of the target group,... more »

Who says "I am God" 
  Some say that lunatics and madmen have delusions of grandeur where they think they are God. They do not only think it. They KNOW it! But as an intelligence exercise and for interest, this "I think therefore I am" when used in conjunction with "I am God" is an interesting experience. For a while you can experience how it "feels" to be... more »
