    New Model of Evolution Finally Reveals How Cooperation Evolves

    hunter goddesses

    I expect that there were always some female hunters. That they were hunters in early civilizations, where men likely did most of the hunting, probably meant that they were particularly good hunters. Shake, stir - female hunter goddess myth.

    The Issue with Modern Day Science

    Never underestimate the power of the cult of personality on susceptible individuals. Many people confuse affectation and presentation with substance. Of course, these types of individuals tend away from strict rationalism and empiricism.

    Will the Religions Ever be Completely Driven out by the Sciences?

    The only problem is that there are still plenty of people who try to argue that religion does serve the same purpose as science, and better.

    Obesity: Why are we punished for eating?

    Denying yourself pleasurable things is always a virtue. Except for the engaging in the pleasure of telling people they're going to hell - that one's a virtue.

    Jewish Atheists?

    Jewish is a religion. Jewish is a cultural identity. Many don't fall into the overlap. Having known many Jewish people throughout my life, the one thing I can say is that whatever it is that actually believe, it's often hard to get a clear answer on what it is that they actually believe...

    The Young Pope

    The understated humor in the show is top-notch. It's well-acted, excellently shot, and is an all-around solid show. Like many contemporary shows, the themes and subtext take some work to understand and appreciate and, like many good shows, tends to have slow pacing and meander a bit. However...

    Very Strong Evidence Against the Existence of the Supernatural

    Is there any religious argument that isn't circular in nature? That's a rhetorical question.

    Very Strong Evidence Against the Existence of the Supernatural

    Every day - countless times. Fortunately, we have other people who are trained and intelligent and actually work on coming up with actual explanations for things, so that we can move beyond our primitive, fearful, superstitious state. Well, at least some of us.

    Oh, jeez. "Racist" Walking Dead T-Shirt pulled due to complaints

    Whiny people have now found ways to get offended by something from ages ago that nobody even knows about anymore. I'm surprised, as I thought they'd never run out of things to be offended by today. Why is it that humorless people never seem to understand anything about context?
