I wonder whether a Japanese anthropologist in Borneo comes to the same conclusions as his Kenyan counterpart or his colleague from Iceland.
PontifexMarximus replies on Jun 12, 2018:
@Matias No I don't. But I don't know any anthropologist who would state the contrary either. Actually if any anthropologist made such a blanket statement, I would suggest s/he should get a job in marketing or politics. I would expect anthropologists to identify religious elements. Religions come in a variety of packages. I would not classify anthropology amongst the*pureest* of sciences.

PontifexMarximus replies on Jun 10, 2018:
Perhaps he wasn't an atheist but his ideas were clearly against the church. He closed down the monasteries and fed the needy. He was a militant humanist.
I think it is rather difficult to judge where people like him and Giordano Bruno and Georges Lemaitre were placed on the theistic scale. BUt their acts and achievement certainly set them apart.

Are you sure? BSE, mad cow disease, was triggered by fodder containing sheep offals, probably including their brains. So I wouldn't exclude the possibility that the consumption of brains from other animals might potentially lead a condition similar to Kuru. So I would suggest to abstain at least from the consumption of the brains of other primates.

Am I wrong for comparing the religious to Nazism?
mattersauce comments on Jun 7, 2018:
Yes, that argument is somewhere between a reduction to absurdity and Godwin's law. Everyone always wants to compare groups they don't like to Nazis and people to Hitler. It degrades your argument and causes more eye rolling than anything else.
PontifexMarximus replies on Jun 9, 2018:
Well the Nazis wanted to create a brand like no other... They successful. So in that respect the German fascistes outperformed their Italian and Spanish counterparts despite the fact that generalissimo Franco outlasted Hilter by decades. Not even modern Islamo-fascists have reached the same level of brand recognition. To this date only Judaism, Catholicim and a few junk food providers and *Nike* have reached higher levels.

Should public nudity be legal?
PontifexMarximus comments on May 5, 2018:
Both scenes from the Côte d'Azur ... Though public nudity is not allowed the cops didn't stop this guy despite the fact that he was obviously not carrying his ID card. But the lady was forced by the whole riot squat to remove her Burkini. Weird planet.
PontifexMarximus replies on May 27, 2018:
@Petter too many stupid fucking cops... The burkini is not a religious garment ... It's a stupid overreaction ... But France is just slipping down the fascist lane ... No monk or nun would get arrested for wearing a religious habit on a beach ... The public nudity in this PM photo is illegal yet no cops seem to force the streaker/exhibitionist to cover up.

@SonderOpia Welcome ... I became a little obsessed with the issues of urban nomenclature when I was reading about China. The **P**earl **R**iver **D**elta is turning into the world's largest polynuclear conurbations or megalopolises with an population of between 70 and 120 million inhabitants.This is the area that is flanked by Hong Kong on the eastern side of the **PRD** and Macau on the western side, cities that are now connected by a combination of bridges and tunnels. Technically this is all part of China (PR) but with international borders.
Furthermore China is home to four independent **municipalities** that are directly under the authority of the central government rather than the provinces surrounding them: Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and Chongqing.
When I think of a ***municipality*** I think of a town or a city within a state with a country. The ***municipality*** of ChongQing is as large as Austria with more than three times this country's population.
Sorry ... This was meant to be much shorter.

PontifexMarximus replies on May 19, 2018:
@LucyLoohoo, @NormCastle polygamy emcompasses both polyandry (several males to one female) and polygyny (several females to one male) ... There doesn't appear any jurisdiction officially allowing polyandry ... Though there are a few cultures that seem to be accepting it whereas polygyny is far more widely spread. It is my understanding that the Mormons only embrace polygyny but not polyandry.
I would say that Polyamori is a more neutral term which could apply to any parntership configuration regardless of the sex of the partners envolved.

Men age better than women. sorry but it is the elephant in the room. Myself its about the person but just look at movies. An actor in his 60`s can still play the romantic lead, the same cannot be said for actresses.

PontifexMarximus replies on May 15, 2018:
@Cricket9 well ... I even remember the date I witnessed this anecdote. *Ben* his name was. I had never met this old Dutchmen until this 29th of February of the *bicentennial" of the big brown land *downunder* . He greeted us politely and added that his wife was sending her apologies. "She's in hospital," he added as an explanation. "Oh, is she sick?" "No, just having a baby. Ben was 71. Two years later we received a card informing us that the Ben's youngest son had another little brother.
There was no IVF involved.
Needless to add that I have never come across a woman in her 70s having a child ... Naturally. Nature is an amalgam of injustices. Women live longer, but their childbearing age is usually shorter than men's ability to father children.
Many women seem to lose their libido earlier and it doesn't seem to bother them as much as men.
For many men the prospect of becoming impotent is almost like a death sentence.

Marrying an older woman is no guarantee either.
What is interesting, is that older women tend to forget that they were once younger.

PontifexMarximus replies on May 15, 2018:
@Iamkratom As I said this depends on the phase in one's life. As mentioned before I was into older women until my own aging process had etched away the difference. When I was 15 I often fantasise about women 3 times my age. If I had maintained that mind set I would be fantasizing about Napoleon's daughter and other ladies soon celebrating their bicentennary.
Time is a good healer but a lousy beautician. I can also understand that younger ladies might not be at all interested in old men.
One of my female friends married a 25 y-o guy when she was 50. Her dilemma was that she wanted to minimize the impact of aging on the various parts of her body. Sadly enough one of her breast implants ruptured.
I don't know whether this was a contributing factor in the breakdown.
Just keep an eye on Emanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte.
