  1. How much money should a master charge

    Hey ST, did you wrote about these experiences ? For what I have been reading about Liping that sounds... well... impressive.
  2. French elections May 7

    There are obviously some strong economics factors that determinate more than we would like our politic so we can no more follow the ideas that lead to our ideal and we are paying for bad industrial choices, few factories left. It is said all over the place that we can't be cheap as spain nor equal deutsche qualitat and on the same time many of us feel stuck in a European instance that is not democratic but ruled by Germany, things we cannot tolerate since they beat us on soccer in '82 and '86 both EPIC GAMES !!!! look at this it's still a national tragedy for us... So... yes sounds rather locked out for now but now is always changing !

    To prove you wrong I'd need your english language mastery and try to master datas of a specific intellectual field. Even with that it would prove not that I grasp some truth but only that you are wrong. I'm not really aimed at intellectual knowledge... Thus it is my family's path it has been proved wrong by all of them. Note that their are not failures as functioning individuals, logical systems or loving humans but that is not my understanding of life not what I'm looking for and I can read them well enough to understand why. Maybe it's not true with you, I can't tell because I don't know/understand you. But... whatever the tons of knowledge one ingurgitate if you are honest with yourself you'll always know that you know nothing. So everything you do in that field is a megamix of boxes opening, role playing, side taking, puzzle/equations solving. There is for sure plenty to learn and many things that bring lights a living but ultimately there you stay. Intellectualism doesn't change much of a person's essence. I know you disagree. Have a nice evening Edit : still I'm curious... but curious is the word/world

    Sometimes I'm under the impression you do anything you can to not understand. I'm certainly not the person that will extensively try to prove you wrong.

    You know sometimes doubt is welcome. But yeah I rather agree with your analysis and with no disrespect... how and why one behave tells more than anything else.

    Founder and President CPRC was founded by Dr. John R. Lott, Jr., an economist and a world recognized expert on guns and crime. If you want to read about "More guns, less crime" http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/M/bo6686900.html Do I have to comment ? You were talking about biases.

    I seriously have no affinity with that article nor that whole website... sounds like they really trying to prove something... don't you think ? The reality of what is called terrorism is something that is constantly in evolution since today change every day. Of course war is not terrorism and casual family shooting is not mass public shooting.

    Are you trying to manage with some cognitive dissonance Brian ?

  14. Ideological Media Bias

    I said that because I think the most prevalent bias is the filter you put on the medias you read. And I still don't get yours. You remain a mystery for me
  15. Ideological Media Bias

    I did actually, interesting very coherent so not very surprising.
  16. Ideological Media Bias

    Are you saying you are less biased than the medias your read dear Brian ?

    I did not compare US to a terrorist association I think. Do you know in Morocco there is no homeless people ?
  18. Aaand... another election

    What would one say after that ? Start a list of US evils ? a sociological study ? Remember your history ? what it cost to the world to build that kind of empire ? Talk about your stats concerning prisons and homicide, mental illness ? Sorry if that sound harsh but you seem as beautiful than disgusting in your own way. Lynch pictured it with magnificence. I like my country but I have no reason to be pride of it regarding its history. We, as past superpower, have been both great and terrible. Maybe that's the price of ambition... or not. Anyway, pride would be misplaced.

    Thank you for that post, dust. You give me the appreciable feeling of being useless

    If we agree on gay people won't marry you, Saudi or daech won't rule you sounds the same to me... stop being scared. Let's defend against offenders and that's all. By putting different kinds of people in a same big bag with a sticker "evil" on it. One do worse than stupidity he creates enemies. It's all a process. Now the debate is focusing on few tens of thousand lost human... with the feeling half of the world wants to rule us. Remember the story al qaeda, then daech have been favoured by ? by ? bye...
  21. Position of the tongue in the meditation

    There are several positions. Just behind the front teeth feels slightly electrical (have you ever put your tongue on a 9v batterie ? )

    and I'm not against you at all. In fact I'm against people that follows the stigmatisation of a whole population/religion according to the oversimplifying signals of our fast evolving time. There are many things I dislike too among the Islamic population just like among westerners. You better say contemporary because historically the lights was here and this is well documented. Contemporarily you still can find pretty things this I found easily but that will find very few echos. http://www.la-croix.com/Religion/Actualite/120-savants-musulmans-ecrivent-une-lettre-ouverte-au-chef-de-l-Etat-islamique-2014-09-26-1212430 "120 muslims scholars write an open letter to the boss of islamic state" "n avoir fait « une religion de dureté, de brutalité, de torture et d’assassinat ». « C’est un grand mal et une atteinte à l’islam, aux musulmans et au monde entier »" "they made of it a religion of hardness, brutality, torture and assassination. That's a big evil and a strike to Islam, muslims and whole world."

    That's all you have got ? After her first wife died he had many others "wives", asked by people to marry them for protection or linkage and widows. You have to understand that 15 centuries ago so another time and culture. In this time, to marry a widow sounds rather like an act of generosity. But still he lived monogamist with her first wife 25 years. An older and socially powerful woman. Why ? Why the same exact treatment ? For the record Islam is a religion that emphasize knowledge and science (yes science) much more than it is believed. And after there is what people do with it... The good makes no sound.

    I think west tends to simplify the complexity of an huge living religious community. Islam is a much more intelligent and divided religion than it appears. I'm not a big fan of religions either... but common, before you state like you know it well, better understand it just a little further. Among muslims there is considerable part of them that think that the Quran must be interpreted, that Mahomet was a modernist that had to deal with its time and culture. For instance he had only wife he loved and stayed monogamist with a powerful and older (than him) woman until her death 25 years later. And the Quran says to treat each wife the very same manner. Can one man have several wives and give each one the exact same thing, a similar attention ? No that is not possible. Jihad is a controversial concept among muslims, I think the acceptation of Jihad as holy war is minority by far and most by far understand it like an internal fight and all of them will understand the internal fight as a the priority. From all the french muslims I know, not even one think to harm someone in any relation with Jihad. Homosexuality punishment is not clearly stated in the Quran but in some Hadiths. The Hadiths in question are all subjects of criticism from the muslim community. I'm no expert but you see, with these simple arguments that is just a bit more complex than it can appear in the stubborn self obsessed west reflection. It's a living religion, debates and reflection are going on.
