Biases can lead smart people to say and believe stupid things. Stephen Hawking, for example, said the universe created itself from nothing.

Hey Jason. You make some good points, but where was your defense of humor when the NY Times was saying we capitalize on confusion and spread misinformation by not doing enough to label our jokes as jokes?

If there was ever a state where truly "not anything" existed—no time, space, matter, energy—then nothing would have ever come into existence. Out of nothing, nothing comes. It is not incredulity but logic and an understanding of causal relations that compels this conclusion.

None of us believe that anything can just pop into existence out of nothing. There's nothing fallacious about our justified certainty that a horse, or a Tesla, couldn't just pop into existence out of nothing. So why should we expect entire universes from nothing?

Whatever begins to exist has a cause.
The universe began to exist.
Therefore, the universe has a cause.

It didn't create itself from nothing (a thing cannot precede itself to produce itself). It was created by an eternal, personal, powerful, intelligent, supernatural agent: God.

He was a brilliant astrophysicist, but a terrible philosopher.

I voted in under 5 minutes in this election. It was easier than ordering Chick-fil-A. Why do Democrats think there’s no way minorities could ever figure it out?

So Biden gave loads of money to Ukraine, who gave loads of money to FTX, who gave loads of money to Democrats.

Sounds like a potentially massive scandal the media will have absolutely no interest in covering.

This is weird.

When does Election Day end?

Good. Every teacher who vilifies white people should go, too. Racism is always bad.

They don’t get credit for knowing about child abuse for years and biting their tongue.

I say shame on them for not saying it sooner, louder, and more often.

I listened to Matt Walsh on Rogan and heard him speculate about the extent of it. He did not lie. And his fundamental point — which is true and with which I wholeheartedly agree — is that one child is too many.

You don’t need millions of cases to oppose this. But you’ll have millions if you don’t.

I do not envy him, but I’m grateful he’s in the fight.

Child abuse is not a parent’s right.

We’re changing the law. Sit tight.

Carroll the coward turned off replies.

Leftists can call for violence explicitly and it's free speech. But if you so much as report the facts on a subject they consider off-limits—like drag shows for kids—then you're a terrorist inciting violence.

They'll stop at nothing to suppress speech.

Gender stereotypes are wrong. Some boys like girl stuff, and some girls like boy stuff, and that's okay.

Also, a girl is anyone who prefers girl toys, colors, or clothes. Some girls looked like boys at birth because they had penises, but they're not boys because they like dolls.
