This web site is dedicated to the eradication of irrational thinking.
Rationalists are those, whose thinking is strictly guided by the laws of logic.
Rationalists only accept as true, that which has been proven to be true,
through the application of the scientific method.

Trump insults crowd right to their face ... and they cheered him!
People that stupid should not be allowed out in public ... without guards.
For those of you who still don't get it, I will explain:
He tricked them by acting like he was praising their loyalty,
but in reality, he was telling them that they were so incredibly stupid,
that he could do anything he wanted (even shoot someone) ...
and they would still support him.
And sadly ... time would prove him right

The evolution of the Republican party can be divided into 3 periods:
They began as the "Party of Lincoln" and were responsible ending slavery;
which had been supported mainly by Southern Democrats (the South was completely "Blue").
But when Democratic President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act in 1964
and the Voting Rights Act in 1965, racist elements within the Southern Democrats felt betrayed
and switched their allegiance to the Republican party (that's why the South is now "Red").
Nixon took advantage of this to win the presidency in 1968 by instituting the "Southern Strategy."
About 40 years later, the Republican party continued its voyage to "The Dark Side"
as the Plutocrats concentrated their efforts on America's most gullible and easily manipulated faction ... "Evangelicals."
Evangelicals are Christians in name only. They stand against everything that Jesus stood for ...
but they can't get enough of Jesus' Old Man: you know, the Guy who never met a living creature, animal or human ...
that He didn't want dead.
The Plutocrats molded the Republican party into a cohesive voting unit built around a party platform
that catered to its various factions: Evangelicals, Racists, and Greedy Capitalists
(those are Capitalists who are cursed with uncontrollable greed).
That was a brief, general overview of the moral degradation that has turned a once-proud political party
into an enemy of the people: the greatest enemy America has faced ... since the Civil War.
To quote President Trump ... #SAD

There is a negative correlation between cognitive ability and ...
both religion and conservatism
This should be pretty obvious to anyone who has debated online with either type.
But what the study doesn't address is the amazing level of arrogance
that these cognitively-challenged conservatives display.
They are willing to sink to any level of immaturity to avoid admitting they are wrong.

Our conservative Supreme Court justices are being picked by
a small, secretive network of extremely conservative Catholic activists
already responsible for placing three justices (Alito, Roberts, and Gorsuch) on the high court.

Trump was right about the game being rigged.
He just left out the part that ... they are the ones rigging it.

Trump has been caught lying thousands of times.
Many of these lies are easy to detect.
So why does his base continue to believe him? How does he do it?
Here is scientific evidence that points to an answer
"
It is also related to how many ASD traits
people in the general population have --
the more traits, the poorer the deception detection ability."
Our country is going down the toilet
because the rich have learned how to control
the large number of Americans with autistic traits.
And the numbers are far, far larger than anyone imagined.

The Limits Of Mathematics
The limits of mathematics can be illustrated by this paradox:
A lion wants to catch and eat a zebra,
but before it can do that, it must first travel halfway to the zebra.
After travelling halfway to the zebra, it still wants to catch the zebra,
but again - it must first travel halfway to the zebra.
That is a mathematical fact. Therefore, the lion can never catch the zebra.
In reality, we know this is wrong.
Sometimes the lion does catch the zebra despite it being mathematically impossible.
This proves that, as powerful a tool as mathematics is,
it must be tempered with knowledge and logic before being applied to reality.
