The Holocaust should have been a wake-up call to the Jewish people to determine what role they might have had in the way they were treated. Instead, that history is buried and they are even more stubborn in refusing to listen. Even when the criticism is well-meaning and constructive. Of course they are not the only religion that should have reformed themselves.

So still no predictions specific enough to be testable, still no objective evidence or compelling arguments. Just the usual unconvincing anecdotes and poorly informed ramblings, this time accompanied by an exceptionally nasty attempt at victim blaming.

I think I'm done here.

Yeah, that was pretty raw. "Jews, listen up, ok? You know that whole 'put your people in ghettos, then exterminate a few million of you by shooting, gassing, medical experimentation, etc., etc." thing? Yeah- maybe that should make you wonder if you should own a little of that, for being, you know...Jewish. And stubborn."

Next up- "hey, black Americans! Time to re-assess, maybe that couple of hundred years of slavery, followed by another hundred or so of lynching and state-sanctioned discrimination, was really your own people's fault in some way."

All only well-meaning and constructive criticism, of course. :rolleyes:
 
In my (limited) real world experience interacting with hardcore conspiracy theorists, they are equal opportunity consumers, embracing every goofy CT you can imagine. A good many of those CTs involve Jews.

If there was a contest to create software that identifies nutty conspiracy theorists, I'd win because I'd cheat: detect "Jews".
 
God helps me. Late at night I get answers. This is what I should have said about obesity and EMFs

This was the answer. EMFs affect the brain and they affect the cells in the intestine. Both affect food cravings. The EMFs also tend to make people depressed. Depressed people tend to comfort eat. EMFs affect the nerves and muscles giving one pain. One exercises less and takes more pain tablets.

Although there are many contributors to obesity - and sugar and high calorie foods are key - it does not mean that EMFs have zero effect. I am not arguing EMFs are the sole cause, just that they contribute to the problem. This might explain the link in the study.

I did not bring it up. It was brought up in the context of what hand God had in prior disasters. And Holocaust is a Jewish disaster. Never mind the countless millions that have died in other disasters. The question Jews ask themselves is where was God and why did God allow it to happen. The questions of good and evil are explored. Any atheist would ask what were the circumstances leading up to the Holocaust, and whether the Jews just innocent bystanders.

We have been over this antisemitism topic before. Give it a rest. You just want to add another derogatory description to someone you disagree with. That is an unethical debating tactic.

What a poor analogy. Firstly, why is slavery only a "Black Thing". The poor and the uneducated and the tribes of the world have always been exploited. It continues to this day. There are large numbers of "economic slaves."

Jews have traditionally been at the top of the power pyramid, and keep paying the price for their elitism. Their high standard of living throu8gh out history has brought about many highly intelligent people who have contributed greatly to society. It is when there are excesses that unbalance society that there are revolts and pogroms. You need to read real history and not be taken in by the history shown in the movies.

Do you prefer a false populist history or would you rather have truths even if they are unpleasant?

Yes. Me too. Maybe I will come back in a year or two.

He hasn't made any predictions. He's just rambled vaguely in a way that will enable him to interpret whatever actually happens as validation.

Rarely have I been so utterly disgusted by something I read on the internet.
 
I needed a break from my project work and thought I would have a closer look at the study put forward by abaddon.

After reading these statements in the Introduction I decided I would not waste my time. Just wanted to let abaddon know my opinion.

These statement are clearly supportive of the Telco industry and dismissive of the many studies (which they do not include) finding non-thermal harm. The trick that is used is to appear unbiased but give more weight to industry position statements to reinforce them - over and over again. And sprinkle with "emotive" words and phrases such as "nocebo".

I will look at some of the papers another time so that I can consider myself informed of the current state of research.


…Summaries and conclusions from such studies are regularly published by both national and international committees containing relevant experts. The conclusions from these agencies and committees are that low level RF exposure does not cause symptoms (“Idiopathic Environmental Intolerance attributed to Electromagnetic Fields”, IEI-EMF), but that a “nocebo” effect (expectation of a negative outcome) can be at hand.

…Some studies suggest that RF exposure can cause cancer, and thus the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified RF EMF as a “possibly carcinogenic to humans”.

…There is further no scientific support for that effects on other health parameters occur at exposure levels that are below exposure guideline levels, even though some research groups have published non-carcinogen related findings after RF exposure at such levels. Environmental aspects of this technological development are much less investigated.

…Exposure limits for both the general public and occupational exposure are available and recommended by the WHO in most countries, based on recommendations from ICNIRP or IEEE guidelines. These limits, which have considerable safety factors included, are set so that exposure will not cause thermal damage to the biological material (thermal effects).

Just winding down here. You seem to be predicting that I will be wrong.

I have always maintained that I cannot be sure that God spoke to me. I think it is highly probable and the only thing that changes is that my talking to Hod may either improve in probability (if right) and decrease in probability (if wrong).

Oh please. Not the moral high road.

That is what many on this site use instead of fact and logic. Throw in disgust and emotion, accusations of lies, statements of delusion and craziness. Find a way to blend in racism, sexism, ageism, misogyny, bigotry, antisemitism, perversion, stupidity. (If possible accusations of supporting Trump :jaw-dropp :D)

Perhaps if you stop doing that people won't be as disgusted or amused by what you post?

What poor reading comprehension. Where did I suggest it was "only a Black Thing"? Many words pointlessly sputtered...

"I have a shovel, and, by gosh, i'm gonna keep digging!"

Seriously, PS- all this holier-than-thou pontificating about "god's tired of the sin so he's gonna thin out the population a little!" would be a little easier to just laugh at and pass by if it weren't for the sniffy hypocrisy and bigotry in it.

You have provided not one scintilla of data, or hint of a methodology, by which an assessment of that probability could even be made, let alone an increase or decrease in it measured.

And no, a feeling in your water is not sufficient. No matter how intelligent and all knowing you are.

so the 80% dieoff and the massive social change are just hopes you have? Not predictions?
 
Last night I asked God to prove to me personally beyond any doubt that he existed. He made me an offer to do so.


He said he would give me a fatal heart attack, and then I could meet him.


I decided not to take the offer and accepted the doubt of not being sure.
