  1. In terms of the previous mod crew, there was an obvious bias toward allowing a right wing cabal rule over political, global warming and other discussions. I could list any number of problems, but upon Sean’s return he listed as to what is not allowed!
  2. I agree! This forum has had far too much of this over the last few years which was approved by the former mod crew.
  3. Climate Change

    Are you denying human caused Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW)? It was Frank Luntz that manufactured the current meme called “climate change”, which is dishonest and leads to doing nothing!
  4. How to be on topic?

    If so you shouldn't be here!
  5. Climate Change

    Would you translate that to English and as opposed to gibberish?
  6. How to be on topic?

    The OP should be banned for posting absolute nonsense ad infinitum! Nothing but preachy New Age nonsense!
  7. Climate Change

    You are off topic here! If you have something to contribute then do so. If not don't post in this thread!
  8. Climate Change

    The article outlined some important points that are right in line with the current research. Extreme weather events.
  9. Climate Change

    The sun is not a factor in human caused AGW. That is a fact! Solar heating is a favorite argument put forth by deniers and their arguments have been thoroughly debunked. CO2 as well as CH4 traps heat i.e, greenhouse effect, which is where the fallacious argument by deniers originates.
  10. Climate Change

    AGW is causing serious problems which are compounding! I take it very seriously!
  11. Climate Change

    Are you stating that the scientific models regarding AGW lack sound evidence of human caused AGW?
  12. There are no guarantees for what you wish for! Many gurus are hunting for willing victims with promises for what you seek.
  13. Women and Buddhahood

    I put the blame for this on the patriarchy. There are any number of excellent works online that are free to read. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=begining+of+the+patricarchy
  14. Exactly what are you seeking? A full blown kundalini awakening experience? I would advise being patient and not pushing it which can lead to physical problems. Relax!!!
  15. Climate Change

    Key Largo has been flooding for around 80 days with no end in sight.

  17. Climate Change

    I read about tipping points yesterday. This is exactly the way in which non-linear dynamic systems behave! All life in this biosphere is in serious trouble and it can only become worse!
  18. Theory by Bruce Lee

    You won't find absolute answers here! Why not read and think for yourself. The Dao is not what you think.
  19. Cushions for meditation

    Glad you mentioned blood clots which are a real danger with tight folded legs.
  20. Do What Thou Wilt

    Please keep this discussion going since now it is much more interesting and to the point! I think it is apropos to this in defining the HGA.
  21. I would venture to guess that your belief system is, “I create my own reality?”
  22. I can spot a vet suffering from PTSD from a mile away without even a word needing to be spoken. Two vets live close by and one is always dressed in camo fatigues and saluted me when we were out walking a couple of days ago. The other was in Naval Special Forces and who knows where his mind is or was.
  23. I don't recall seeing any officers that were persons of color. My basic training drill instructors were both African American NCO's both of whom were in your face nasty at times. As to the ratio of persons of color to whites I would need to research that one.
  24. To further your point, military service would remove racist classism barriers which would for the most part would level the field. That was for the most part what happened in WWII with the exception of the Red Ball Express, an Army Air Corp squadron of African American pilots. Regular Army and Navy was segregated for the most part.
