The evidentiary standard for judging the non-existence of gods (supranatural beings operating outside of the laws of nature) is reality. All the mysteries that we have yet to solve are not answered by saying that a god did it (god of the gaps).

Interesting. 🤔
@mcuban 15% flat tax as an interim measure. Limit government spending to its proper purpose: the protection of individual rights. You're welcome.

During the #covid pandemic, people failed to listen to the world’s preeminent infectious disease epidemiologist (left), instead relying on a bunch with limited ability to understand public health (right).
In sum: Columbia and Bernard students are intelligent but not rational; they have the ability to be logical, but behave illogically. They have a great computer, but they fill it with garbage.

First, spy agencies broke privacy laws for mass surveillance. Then, militaries and security agencies created secret committees to monitor social media posts and demand mass censorship. Now, governments are demanding the right to read your private and encrypted texts and emails.

I like the idea of public opinion rallying around a new "Ivy League," but the list in this article is off the mark. The new Ivy League consists of CLEMSON (the new Harvard), Georgia, Florida, FSU, Auburn, Alabama, Tennessee, & Ole Miss. @elonmusk @BillAckman…

I’ve always enjoyed and found meaning in work, and always had other projects and hobbies and social things and luxuries that brought me happiness. But family is 4 to 16 hours a day, every day, of building and inhabiting a soul-shaping meaning structure with your favorite people.

I was happy before I got married and had children, but having a wonderful family is a happiness spigot. It’s an enormous, life-altering commitment, a commitment in virtue of which you can turn on a spigot and happiness comes out.

American taxpayers shouldn't pay for any activities not directly related to protecting individual rights. Get Gov out of education completely. Voluntarily, fund whatever you want (that does not involvce violence/fraud)
