Thank God it's less than 1,000 words. Thus, in contrats to what some evil-minded commenters have suggested it is impossible that Kairosfocus or Gordon E. Mullings authored the Monserrat Reporter article.

But not crotch-crabs, because that would not be living room language.

True, it's not 5768 words, but it is unnecessarily long, and there is a plethora of adjectives:

social antennas
obviously unwelcome truth
“divide and rule” tactic
sound confidence
right and necessary thing
effective way
silencing tactic
evil agenda
corrupt messages
snake- in- the- garden toxic talking points.

but not an idiotic amount, so i'd only say it's probable that KF wrote it, not certain.

I am, myself, religious.

Is this religion based on some external objective truth, or merely internal subjective feelings? Does it differ significantly from materialism in its account of the cause of the universe and everything in it? The origin of the mind that struggles to comprehend the universe?

KF — “Slavery is an evil, a privation of the good of freedom. However there are circumstances where it may be a lesser evil than the realistic alternatives;”

Is this one of the lesser evils?

<b>"If man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property."</b>

So, it is OK to beat your slave as long as he or she doesn’t die?

Ouch. That's going to leave a mark.

I am taking bets on whether he responds in a pompous, condescending and arrogant fashion, or whether he responds with a rational and measured response.

I'm beginning to think that she is bullet proof.

Has UD ever banned a woman other than Lizie?

V — “Perhaps a vacation might perk you up, Colorado is nice and fairly straight in parts.”

And the ready availability of THC gummy-bears might temper KF’s tone dramatically.

KF, seriously, you really have to lighten up. Have some fun. Smell the roses. Sexual imagery in someone’s comment isn’t a sign of the downfall of civilization. I’m a 60+ year old woman and I still enjoy sex for the pure pleasure of it. Can your wife say the same? If not, do something about it.

Damn. Thank you Ziggy for putting that image in my head.

. . . how farfetched is it for the earth temperature to raise by a 100 degrees or something, on account of putting tons and tons of garbage waste in the atmosphere?

Yes, it is quite farfetched.

But setting that aside, there is a more important issue with your statement:

What garbage waste are you referring to? Are you talking about that beneficial trace gas that is absolutely essential to life on earth?

Water is beneficial. Therefore drowning is impossible.

Phinehas — “If God exists, then how can objective truth not exist? If God declares a thing to be true, then is it possible for it to not be objectively true? How so?”

You are assuming that God does not lie, or does not change his mind. Do we know this to be true? If he can change his mind, then how do we know what is true?

Quote

KF — “You would be well advised to read here on the sins of Christendom…{linking to one of his GEM of TIKI articles}”

I have read some of the articles on that web site but I find the writing to be almost incomprehensible. Maybe the author could get his/her point across better if he/she adopted a less obtuse and cumbersome writing style.

Quote

KF — “Especially in the context of onward unjustified accusations of hate, bigotry cowardice etc which have never been withdrawn. You patently know better so kindly do better. KF”

I have apologized to StephenB. I have not found any justification for apologizing to you yet. When I see evidence that any of my “accusations” are not accurate, I will apologize.

Andre and those others who think abortion is mass murder. What are you doing about it? You think a few comments on a blog is a suitable response to mass murder? You are like the people in Nazi Germany who stood by complicitly while millions died. If you really believed it was mass murder you should be engaged in a overthrowing the government. You should be in jail for life for your actions in physically opposing this mass murder of innocents. At the least you would move to a country where abortion was illegal. So either you are a coward. Or you don’t really believe it’s mass murder.

WJM and those who believe in objective moral truths. Please list 10. All you ever mention is child torture or some variation on that. Put up. What are you guys scared of?

Banned again. My sock drawer is running low. Pushing Mullings buttons is just way too much fun. The only thing that surprises me is how long she lasted.

KF — “You can be safely categorised as an idea and implementer hitman, in a strategic change context. In the online context, as a troll. BA77 suggests a very familiar identity resurfacing under another pseudonym.”

First, I am a woman. Secondly, thank you for again providing another example of Mr. Murray’s argument about using inflammatory labels for the purpose of stifling discussion. Thirdly, to you always believe unsubstantiated accusations made by BA77? Who is William Spearshake? If you don’t like him, I get the feeling that I might.

Origenes — “The continuous stream of ad hominem attacks on Ziggy Lorenc and others is hard to stomach.”

Thanks for the support. Personally, I just find it embarrassing. Not for me, but for KF. Why he thinks that 6,500 words spread over several comments is going to be read by anyone is the biggest mystery.

i heart ziggy lorenc

It would never have worked out between you and me SteveStorey. It would go against natural moral law.
