5:39 In much of Europe, that's the huge contributor to Muslims replacing us.

["the one consoling thought is, that will only last one generation"]

8:03 In Chesterton's day, governments were sterilising people.

That's not "more fresh" ...*

12:34 Chesterton also said, Capitalism and Communism are so similar.**

Right now people in Anaheim are evacuated because a factory had the Capitalistic freedom to produce for such a large amount of customers and the Capitalistic corner cutting to not ensure proper safety for such large a factory.

* "Take out God, the government becomes the God" and they argued "when governments were more fresh"
** "Whether the share will be delivered in motorcar or balloon" and they argued "people say Capitalism won't work, but Communism will" ... Chesterton had attacked Communism, not specifically defended Capitalism

17:43 You can* observe angels by their actions when they do Tychonian orbits or "annual aberration and parallax" ...

If a rationalist claims that this is just because Earth moves, the problem is, his only proof for Earth moving is, lack of God and angels.

God doing, as per Romans 1, the daily movement of the whole shebang.

The rationalist pretends God and angels not existing is the default and is worth denying Geocentrism, despite universal observation of it by 8 billion people.

I say, believing your eyes (especially if backed up by so many other ones) is the default and is worth God and angels getting a proof via physics. As in, the universe couldn't turn around Earth by just inertia and gravitation, nor Venus do that pentagram like figure within that (i e in relation to a zodiac that moves daily, not to earth that doesn't move).

20:34 I happen to have a formula for saying that carbon dates can square with Biblical chronology.

Clearly not the same thing, but I have it, and I have also made tables with details. Right now, some Christians like very much to link Abraham (1900's or 1800's BC in Biblical chronology, depending on dating of Exodus and a few more) to carbon dated and archaeological 1900's and 1800's. So, they put my tables in a limbo, because I link Genesis 14 to carbon dated 3500 BC. But in carbon dates, Asason Tamar / En Geddi has no population in 1900's or 1800's BC. Therefore the Biblical dates need a reduction of carbon dates. I show this is possible.**

23:59 You certainly did have a right to feel wrath against the mean boy, I hope you didn't kill him. There are people I don't know how to deal with except by killing one, but it doesn't sit with my habits.

Note, they have gone out of their way to make normal reactions self defeating.

However, as an argument, I think Dawkins would argue sth about "the selfish gene" ...***

25:46 In Catholicism, you pray twice around a meal.

Before, you ask a blessing. After, you thank for the blessing.

* In response to:

if someone comes up to you and they say well you know what I I I've just used my mind and Science and I come up with these these conclusions um how can you believe in a world with Heaven and Hell and Angels and Demons you can't say well good let's let's go to the to the science lab and I'll I'll I'll show you the angel the angel particle or the demon particle you can't actually observe these things
