It is the exact opposite of "clever garbage to take your focus off whatever you're taking about". In fact it suggests we focus on what we do know, and avoid complicating problems by introducing additional unknown variables to explain them.

And yes, there is compelling evidence of the scientifically calculated age of the universe, look up the cosmic microwave background.

More cosmic drivel.    Cool

The same cosmic drivel that allows you to see things, watch TV, listen to the radio, take x-rays, reheat your food and ironically, type what you just typed? The electromagnetic spectrum, that cosmic drivel?



You misunderstand. The fact of microwave radiation isn't the drivel. Rather, the cause and source of background radiation is guesswork. It's nice ideas. But that's all.

The point that I am getting at is, if science/media/politics/universities are not honest enough to say that they don't know when C-14 came into being on Earth, and that they don't know to what extent C-14 varied over past millennia, then they certainly don't know anything about the past of background radiation. And anything that they might say about it other than that it is detectable and measurable, doesn't necessarily have any fact behind it.

Trump can put tariffs on goods exported by Mexico to USA.

What's the point?

More money from import/export means less needed from income taxes.

Cool

But in both cases it's the citizen who pays it.
Where I agree is that it's an indirect taxation... But I'm not sure it's better than direct taxation :/

If we make our own products, there is no import. If government makes export tax too high, we simply don't export. If government wants any money at all, they have to balance the tax so that products can come and go. Government shrinks to the right size.

I guess you know nothing about islam when you say that it hates people. No religion hates people, people hate each other.
You have a point there. Islam is a peaceful religion. Islam wouldn't hate any people. Non-muslims are strong blinded by newspaper, social-media networks that we create an bad opinion to muslims.
If you only belive to the people from newspaper, social-media networks etc. without much knowledge in that topic itself then I strongly recommed to research the topic.

Then again, Muslims may be strongly blinded by newspaper, social media networks, etc that we create a bad opinion to non-muslims.  Such as in Jordon, Pakistan, Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia and so forth.

If you only belive to the people from newspaper, social-media networks etc. without much knowledge in the topic itself then I strongly recommed to research the topic.

After all this strong blinding, Muslims hate many people.
Journalist sometimes being paid by rich to manipulate what's coming out in news and other article. That's a dirty move happening and it will still happen as long as there are journalist that's no integrity.

I have to agree with your comment.

Could we say perhaps that in addition to the other mentioned causative factors, "journalist sometimes being paid ...."


I think other reason is they are being threaten that if they tell the truth their life and might be their relatives also will be put in danger. They have no choice, that's why they follow what's being told by them that is to hide what's true.

So people are being forced to say "Islam is peace" at the point of a gun.

At least in some cases.  Sounds reasonable.  But other people probably actually believe it, at least from the responses here.  Sure, some of them are from propagandists and manipulators, but others sound sincere.

Ehy sorry but...

Where did you see a journalist claiming Islam is peace? Oo

I mean I never saw anyone saying that. Most journalists say that "Mulims are not all terrorists" but not that islam is peace.

What back woods or hermit hill have you been living in or on? All over America Muslims are constantly saying that Islam is a religion of peace. And when journalists record what Muslims say, they are saying it, too.

Btw, the parts of a crankshaft where the bearings ride are called journals. Did you mean that the machinists who machine crankshafts are journalists? Most of them probably DON'T claim that Islam is peaceful.

What's your view on Occam's Razor?

Just as an example, let's take your hypothesis that carbon 14 decayed at a faster rate in the past than it does today. That would explain a 6,000 year old Earth, right?

But without any evidence that this is the case, it's not a valid rebuttal of carbon dating, according to Occam's Razor. You're simply thinking of ways which validate your beliefs, with no supporting evidence.

I could just say "well that Jesus guy that was supposedly resurrected and walked out of the cave, he was just a look-alike who pretended to be the real Jesus, the real one never came back to life." The argument has just as much validity as the carbon dating rebuttal.

(I know C14 dating isn't accurate to billions of years, but it does provide compelling evidence against a 6,000 year old Earth.)

If there was absolutely not one atom of C-14 in the atmosphere prior to 5,000 years ago, 100% of our carbon dating that we interpret to be older than 5,000-year-old would be wrong. And much of our dating AFTER 5,000 years would be wrong, as well.

Nobody knows when C-14 came into being in the atmosphere. It's all guesswork.

Maybe, but that won't stop immigrants. As a comparison, the UK and France have a sea between but immigrants still get into the UK illegally.


The difference is, in Britain, immigrants enter lawfully if not legally. But this is not true in France. Lawfully and legally are the same in France.

In America, if any man or woman calls out any government man or woman in court, the government man or woman must answer lawfully rather than legally. This is called common law, and it came from Great Britain. France doesn't have it.

Karl says it best when he says be a man (or woman). No offense meant by this. Karl doesn't mean to offend anyone when he says this. All he means is, do it man to man, whatever you do with government.

Get an attorney to guide you through the legal system processes. But don't be a client of the attorney. Let him be your co-council. Then talk to the PEOPLE in government, man to man, not man to a governmental office, not a represented man to government.

How do you do this? Do it the same way you would send a greeting card to your next-door neighbor. Except for one thing. Certified mail. Registered mail if you want the government person to receive it immediately. And, finally, process server. Man to man.

After all, a government without people can't do anything... not one thing. So, it is people holding government offices doing it to you. In other words, it is people. Talk to people man to man.

Ultimately, if people don't respond, make your claim in your (qwik2learn) court at Federal Court (in your State).

You really need to watch:

It is almost 6 hours long, but it gives you a lifetime of easy law. After all, what's 6 hours compared with some humongous fine by government... especially if you can get the fine out them instead, for filing a false complaint/claim against you? Download it and use it for reference until you know what you are doing.


Could you summarize the process needed to liquidate the commercial contracts (CoLB, SS Card, Driver's License, vehicle title, etc.)?
It's called rescission of contracts. Google it. Karl's method is to be humble and polite and even sweet. "At one time I believed that blah blah blah was a benefit to me. I no longer feel that it is a benefit to me. I wish my signature to be removed from such and such ab initio."


Could you also summarize the process for acquiring property?
Thanks!

Buy the property?

Whatever it is, if it is your property, it is proper to you. For example. If your car is titled, this might appear that it belongs to government. So, when you have a problem with any man or woman ordering you to do something with your property, find out through letters what claim they, personally, not in their governmental office, have on your property. If they own part of it, then you guys own it jointly. Otherwise, charge them whatever they would have charged you in their operations... plus court costs, and inconvenience costs... for making a false claim on your property.

Don't go off half cocked. Karl says to make this (being a man) a lifestyle.

Besides America turning to God in their hearts, there is only one way to make America solidly strong, rather than having the appearance of strength, only. Here's what it is. And it will take time.

Introduce a second currency, a U.S. Treasury currency, that is gold and silver backed at the current rates of gold and silver. Gradually, over a period of 10 years, phase out the Federal Reserve Note while replacing it with the new Treasury currency. At the same time, bring the price of gold down to a level of 1 to 1 with the new Treasury dollar. Set silver legally somewhere between 1/5 to 1/8 the price of gold (people can do what they want regarding values between themselves).

An additional thing would be to phase out income taxes on the people over the same period of time. Make all taxes come from three places: 1) international import/export; 2) import/export between the States; 3) income taxes on Federal corporations.

Do this, and by the end of 10 years America will be the best nation in the world hands down.

Cool

Epic fail. There is only one way to make America great again: stick to the constitution and bills of rights.

Absolutely wrong! People should NOT stick to the Constitution and Bill of Rights. That's for government to do. Money is for the people to use as a fast way of trading goods and services.

A Muslim man's split-second decision
saved hundreds of lives in his home country.






A Muslim man's split-second decision saved hundreds of lives in his home country.

Credit: Twitter

Fear-mongering in the U.S. has culled a large percentage of citizens into believing that ISIS is synonymous with all Muslim believers. Nothing could be further from the truth, and a man's recent actions are a testament to that.

IndiaTimes reports that when a suicide bomber from the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham (ISIS) attempted to blow up the Sayyed Mohammad Shrine in Balad, Iraq, a man named Najih Shaker Al-Baldwai did something most people couldn't. He ran up to the suicide bomber and hugged him to physically dampen the explosion.

Al-Baldwai's split-second decision saved hundreds of lives, according to a Joint Operations spokesman in Iraq. 70 injuries resulted from the explosion and 37 were killed. However, because of the man's heroic actions, the death toll was much less than what it could have been.

Reportedly, Daesh aimed for the Shrine's explosion to match the death count of the recent Karrada attack in Iraq which claimed 300 lives. To date, that is the deadliest single attack in Iraq since the war began to oust Saddam Hussein 13 years ago.

ISIS bombers disguised themselves as the local militia in an attempt to storm and destroy what is considered to be one of the country's most important Shia shrines. The last time such a monument was destroyed, a civil war was sparked.

Al-Baldwai had but a second to decide to put his life on the line, and because he did, many more people are still alive today. The honorable man's activism is also helping to deconstruct Islamophobia in the U.S. and elsewhere.

Shortly after the story broke, it went viral on countless media outlets around the world. The U.K.'s Metro and a post about his sacrifice even became the most popular submission on Reddit.

That's okay, Fluffer. You simply happen to be one of the many people who don't understand the difference between factual science and science theory. No matter how great the percentage of scientists that THINK theory is fact, theory isn't fact until it is proven to be fact. That's why it is called theory. This is why Big Bang and Black Hole Theory will remain theory. Neither will ever be proven to be fact.

Makes for good sci-fi though. And you might even formally proclaim it a religion... science theory as fact, that is.
