@yvilletom The Bangers’ gravity-only universe doesn’t do it; gravity requires electricity.
LenHazell53 replies on Feb 7, 2021:
That is basically the basis of the unsolved unified field theory
Magnetism is connected to gravity
Magnetism is connected to electricity
Therefore there should be a connection between gravity and electricity
It seems this article may provide the beginning of such a discovery

Oriental is referring to of, from, or characteristic of Asia, especially East Asia.
LenHazell53 comments on Feb 4, 2021:
Americans have a weird idea of what constitutes oriental, manly because they feel the word is racist.
LenHazell53 replies on Feb 4, 2021:
@altschmerz the islands of Japan are Asian in the same way the islands of Britain are European, politically affiliated to the continental lands but not part of them. This is why a lot of Brits (especially f'ing Brexiteers) don't like it when Americans call them Europeans.
Maybe it is an Island race thing
Japanese are not Asians as British people are not Europeans and like the British the Japanese have been at war with most of their continental neighbours on and off for hundreds of years.
This is why if you mistake a Nihonjin with a Huárén they will both become very offended, in the same way a Scot would be heartily pissed off if you called him a Frenchman, or an Irishman , English.
Think of it like this how would you as an American feel if people insisted Canadians were Americans, because they exist on the American continent.

Far east I suspect. Chinese or Korean. Oriental refers to the Middle east, & the eastern middle east.
LenHazell53 replies on Feb 4, 2021:
Maybe where you come from, but to most of the world the Orient, is China and anywhere east of China, before reaching the occidental countries again. In most most literature dating from the 19th and early 20th century the Orient is synonymous with China and oriental was considered a polite way of referring to anything or anyone Chinese.
Middle eastern peoples were and to some extent are, in Europe recognised to be the Semitic races and Asians are the peoples of the Indian sub continent.
I know that in the USA Asian is a catch all term for anyone who is neither white nor black but is resident on the continent of Asia or east of it, but this is not the case for the rest of the world, Japanese people for example would never be considered Asian by anyone other than an American, but I have often heard them referred to as such in USA films, TV and Literature, they would and sometimes still are however considered oriental, a word that outside of the USA has NO racist connotations whatsoever, but is considered a little old fashioned.

@barjoe I never said that FDR was a bad president, and I agree with almost all that you say, but pushing political definitions to the point where the point they stop bending and threaten to break, FDR could be described as a failed but well intentioned democratic socialist.
The true test of socialism is how the people are cared for, and the failure to bring about and make his first priority universal health care and the curbing of the power of commercial medicine and pharmacology disqualifies FDR from being considered an orthodox socialist.

@barjoe I never said that FDR was a bad president, and I agree with almost all that you say, but pushing political definitions to the point where the point they stop bending and threaten to break, FDR could be described as a failed but well intentioned democratic socialist.
The true test of socialism is how the people are cared for, and the failure to bring about and make his first priority universal health care and the curbing of the power of commercial medicine and pharmacology disqualifies FDR from being considered an orthodox socialist.
But thank you for your post and your eloquent defence of a great man.

"May I suggest that all, whether rich, poor, right wing, left wing, communist, anarchist, liberal and conservative try to achieve the intelligent agenda of pursuing & implementing action that benefits all people living on this planet and not just their favoured group?"
You can suggest it, however, the evidence of history is against you.
Your spurious aphorism is sadly based on observably incorrect presumptions of universal idealisms, morality and universal ethical standards. However, capitalism, monarchism, communism and economics are all based upon the false pragmatism that personal (or state) profit is the ultimate measure of all good, moral and worthy achievements no matter what the cost in ANYTHING else.

"Can you name some ideas that you don't agree with that are legitimate ones to have?"
Matters of preference based on personal taste, such as Apples taste better than Pears, rainy days are more refreshing than windy days.
Any idea however that advocates for hate, violence, suppression, torture and murder (or other negativity) is invariably for the purpose of establishing power and or gaining wealth by appealing to negative and base emotion of the greedy and hate filled can not be thought to be simply an idea or opinion.
The correct word for such I believe is machination, and such machinations pose a genuine threat to the wellbeing of society as a whole and must be opposed.
This is why freedom of speech and expression are essential, both to expose and oppose the peddlers of destructive mendacious perfidy.

Today many of us are ashamed of the cultural items, TV shows, music ect from that era that propagated the idea of people, especially women, as something to be used, abused and acquired as property.
However we are not that generation, nor are our children and grandchildren, and I hope you and the other female participants in this discussion can, as you have, bare that in mind and spare us from the disgusting doctrine of "visiting the sin of the fathers on the children, unto the third and the fourth generations"

Punish the guilty, draw attentions to wrong doing, be strong as women and be equal in the eyes of all, BUT be equal, do not try to better the lessons of your oppressors by giving in to hate and fear, human beings should be by nature better than that.*

I have been an activist fought for sexual equality all my life. A movie actor/ director/ producer regardless of gender has the right to do as they please within normal boundaries of respect and self respect.
This is all I am saying.
However there is also a need for mutual respect.
Drawing on your bad experiences is irelevent to to the context, we have ALL had bad experiences with both members of the same sex and the opposite sex, I suffered spousal abuse for years from my first wife, it makes no difference to how I think of women in general.
Rape has nothing to do with "The male gaze" which was a term coined by Laura Mulvey in the 1970 to explain certain parts of film theory. It has nothing to do with sexual assault which is a foul crime when it happens to anyone.
I have a wife, two daughters, a daughter in law and a son who is F to M trans.

@bbyrd009 Please don't just cut and paste sections from Bible study tools dot com and not credit it.
The Aramaic word for snake is ḥiwya and the word for serpent is neḥas.
In Hebrew the word nachash is used as a slang word for serpent but actually connotes in context something like sneaky or slippery in the sense of a clever dick, but the book of genesis is NOT written in Hebrew it is written in Aramaic.
The word used in translation from the text can be read ( by adding in the vowels) as Nachash but can also be read as Nachesh which means user of arts, and is also a word for a witch.
As I said the only reason the creature that tempts Eve is assumed to be a snake or a serpent is because it is forced too crawl on its belly by god.
There is also of course the fact that in Aramaic he name of eve is written חַוָּה where as the word for snake is spelled חִוְיָא and have a very close pronunciation, which may have added to the myth.

@bbyrd009 Please don't just cut and paste sections from Bible study tools dot com and not credit it.
The Aramaic word for snake is ḥiwya and the word for serpent is neḥas.
In Hebrew the word nachash is used as a slang word for serpent but actually connotes in context something like sneaky or slippery in the sense of a clever dick, but the book of genesis is NOT written in Hebrew it is written in Aramaic.
The word used in translation from the text can be read ( by adding in the vowels) as Nachash but can also be read as Nachesh which means user of arts, and is also a word for a witch.
As I said the only reason the creature that tempts Eve is assumed to be a snake or a serpent is because it is forced too crawl on its belly by god.
There is also of course the fact that in Aramaic he name of eve is written חַוָּה where as the word for snake is spelled חִוְיָא and have a very close pronunciation, which may have added to the myth.

@Willow_Wisp Sorry but you are wrong, all prostitutes had to be licenced and registered, as did brothels for tax purposes, in fact famously one of the major factors that lead to the assassination of Caligula was his attempt to raise the prostitution taxes to 75% and to abolish "patronage" which was a way to avoid taxation by moving your you own sex slave in to your household for personal "usage" and pay her with board and lodge. Something much of the senate benefitted from.

"most of these activities were illegal in Rome,"
Who on earth told you that rubbish, a significant part of the Roman Empires economy was derived from the tax on brothel owners, both static and mobile and the services they provided.
It was illegal to marry a prostitute, because she (or he) was a slave and the property of the Whoremaster, and so like all slaves has no human rights.

@bbyrd009 Adam in Aramaic means made from red earth, Eve means given life or born alive.
Their sons names Abel means vanity or talker, Cain means Weapons Smith and Seth means replacement.
Eden literally means pleasure garden.
The serpent is not identified as such but by the Ammonite name Nachash, it is usually taken to mean snake or serpent because of the curse placed on it by god to crawl on its belly and eat dust, nowhere in the Aramaic text does it say that Nachash is a serpent or a snake. The word actually as a name means artist or artisan.
Given all this it takes a particularly dumb religious person to contend that the book of genesis is aught but a parable/morality play meant to keep the plebes in line.

None of Grants marriages lasted more than four years and his marriage to Diane Cannon was an arrangement to father a child.
Likewise Scott's first marriage was a brief affair during a break with Grant (who had had a one year marriage with Starlette Virginia Cherrill). Scott's marriage to a wealth horse breeder and socialite Mariana duPont Somerville soon broke down leading to seperation and divorce two years later.
In the early 40's Scott and Grant separated for the last time when Scott in another marriage of convenience settled down with Wealthy heiress Patricia Stillman at the same time Grant was forced in to a studio short marriage with (Lauren Hutton)

Libo County is a county of southern Guizhou province, China, bordering Guangxi to the south. It is under the administration of the Qiannan Buyei and Miao Autonomous Prefecture.
It is open to the public and tourist alike, take a trip and have a look if you doubt it, or google it there is plenty of evidence to suggest this place does exist and is not some insidious plot by the Chinese tourist board.

LenHazell53 replies on Jan 18, 2021:
NO it is not simply that, there have been calls in the last week or so to shut down all sorts of groups, the memes group for example because some of those memes shared as "Bad Taste" in the opinion of the permanently offended.
It is not up to anyone not even admin to censor the feed, it is up to people to make their own choices and censor what they don't wan to see, but like so many others the dear members of this site are getting that they will not do anything for themselves and insist that they be "protected" from inappropriate content which the rest of us are supposed to know by some kind of telepathic osmosis.
If you don't want to see don't look, but do not feel entitled to tell other people that because you don't like it they can not like it themselves.
Or are you the sort who refuses other people a biscuit because you are on a diet!

This group has over seven hundred members, it is not Porn in any way shape or form, if people do not wish to see it, disable the alerts from it or hide it.
As a founder member of this group and on behalf of all members I ask that it be put back immediately.
