The whirly thing has been showing permanently on the tab for me for, like, ever. At least the past year (Firefox). Anyway, if you can't get into UD, think of all the things you can do with the life time! :)

Have you tried NoScript?

Google DNS server is definitely reporting that UD does not exist. Most people just use the default server provided by their isp.

Now even Dense and Dreary is jumping on Barry's materialism vs objective morality.

I knew this was coming. gordo the bloviating drama queen has posted a large load of his typical projectile vomit against materialists, scientism, Marxists, Lewontin!, Sagan, Darwinism, etc., etc., etc. And of course he shat the Plato's Cave crap for the gazillionth time and even posted an "animated version" video about it. Apparently the real Plato wasn't available to star in the video.

http://tinyurl.com/qbaclm8....qbaclm8

And even though he put END (as usual) at the bottom of his rancid OP, he went on to post the first five comments in a row (so far).

Obviously it wasn't enough for gordo to barf his other recent comments, such as numbers 33 and 34 in this thread:

http://www.uncommondescent.com/intelli....omments


ETA: I had to replace the first url with a tiny url because the other one was too long to work.

There are a total of 18 comments to this OP, 11 are from Gordon Mullings. Maybe this is just a new strategy. Rather that post and not allow comments, he posts and doesn't give anyone else the chance to comment.

PS: Notice, how the objectors are largely absent . . .

I think we can thank Barry for that. And the fact that Gordo's OPs are so verbose and meandering that they are impossible to parse.

Barry's latest weapon in his arsenal is to post an OP listing materialist . Materialist Dodges.

Any argument that he can't counter (which is almost all of them) he declares to be a materialist dodge and dismisses it. I wonder if they taught him this in ambulance chasing college.

somebody over there is asking barry "Is slavery objectively wrong?" and barry apparently can't answer it, and he's being called out repeatedly, and his excuse is "I don't feel a need to jump your hoops" and he probably thinks he looks clever. It's awesome.  :p

I had a long discussion with a kid about that. How debt slavery should be fine. It's just working off their debt.

The concept of owning another person was fine with that good Christian kid.

Along the same lines, I've kinda been wondering how many pregnant people and their fetuses Jebus' daddy killed in The Flud.

If someone gets around to it, could we get Barry's take on that?

Perhaps the information exists already, it is just accessed by material processes, but in your view how does the immaterial cause the brain to dream and what is the probabilty of that process?

Thank you for the excellent example of MD11:

To Velikovskys #26

[snip]

I have no idea how that is accomplished or how it works. It is unknowable to the human mind. So the burden of explanation is not symmetrical for Theism vs Materialism. You do have to explain how information arises spontaneously in the brain, but I do not have to explain how it arises in the mind. This is not a dodge; it is an artifact of my category of claim vs yours.

Irony. Meter. Blown.

that's really their only way out. They've got to say slavery is OK, because it's Objective Morality Straight From Teh Bible, but if they just say that, everyone will know they're horrible cretins, so they're gonna have to say well That slavery wasn't Really like what You call slavery, which is bad, blah blah blah.

Barry still refuses to answer that very simple question. Rather, he dismisses the commenter as an asshat. At this point, he has simply run away like the coward he is.

You really must check in on the big morality discussion over at Uncommon Descent. Barry Arrington has done another post on the subject. It’s just more snarling and buffoonery, but I do suggest browsing the comments.

And here is another person that don’t understand slavery in the Biblical context. Right Stenosesmella a few questions. … In 1500 BC was there such a thing as a democratic government? Careers? Pension? Medical Aid? Also was there such a thing as welfare? social workers? Police? Judicial system? Prisons? Hospitals?

Slavery in biblical times was mostly good for slaves. If a rich person did not take you in you’d be dead. Slavery in biblical times was almost always voluntary with clear rules and a handsome pay out when it was time to be freed.

The ignorance of the feeble minded saddens me.


You see your slaves were your basic moocher class, bronze age welfare queens who had it easy. This is before Jesus came back as John Galt. The just laid around waiting for their "handsome pay out" whilst who had to do all the whipping and raping? That's right, the SLAVE OWNERS!

This also (like PCD) disproves evolution because as folks basically just die without being slaves someone must have set up this cushy system from day 1.
