Gee..... Ya' think?????

I mean to say , no shit Sherlock.  Did you think that all the Computer Generated Graphics were real, as if the woman laying in her bed with the Holographic baby actually exists somewhere?

The IDEA is the thing.  That was the point of the entire posting, to indicate that to the left and other psychos out there, a child is simply something you can 'grow in a lab'.

Is this the time where I put the word "WHOOSH" in there to show that it went right over your head?

I've seen DSOBs in my life but you just won the Darwin award.  LOL   

P.S.  This kind of mentality is why those like yourself have no problem with abortion on demand since humans will someday be able to just 'grow another one' in a lab somewhere. 

I'm Sorry that my posting was completely lost on you.  Perhaps next time you'll actually get it...... 

Then again, you probably won't.

P.S.  I will go ahead and beat the regular here to it:

PJ Media has always been known as a purveyor of conspiracy theories for the right wing echo chamber.

They have zero credibility.

Now that we've got that out of the way.....

Perhaps they just saw your ugly mug and said, "Damn, charge that guy a fee"!

Well there you go, perhaps you should get a real job rather than phone installer and then you could afford any fees that they (PJ Media) charge.

Too technical for you?  

Are you the janitor?

After all I took an educated estimate of your IQ level, and if adding the mouse in your pocket, it is probably a combined 40?  (I figured the mouse was probably about 25).  

P.S.  Not trying to insult the mouse.

Did you get rid of the mouse or did he tired of your stench and leave on his own?

Now then, back to the issue where a Loudon county school official lied to the parents and the world about a 9th grade girl who was raped by a Trans boy in a bathroom and these lying officlals said that nothing happened and then that Trans boy was transferred to another school where he did the same exact thing and raped another young girl.

This occurred and the school board members lied to the public

Well it appears the lying scumbags are going to get their day in court after being charged.

The basic premise that most scholars who study the effects of geography and environment on the development of civilizations is that Western culture and society dominated more due to the fate of the location of our origins rather than a superior moral system or intellect. No one is saying that non-Western societies were not advanced in many ways, but overall, they lagged behind Western societies in commerce, organization, and technology. Of course, the disease differential was also significant, but as you pointed out, most likely caused by zoonotic viruses Westerners developed due to animal husbandry. In the Americas, there were no large mammals that were easily domesticated or that would have created enough resources to warrant the effort.

Here are some of my top favorite non-fiction books from over the years:

Blood and Thunder - Basically a history of the settlement of the western United States, but Kit Carson plays such a significant role it is almost a biography of him.

The River of Doubt - After Teddy Roosevelt's losses in the 1912 election, he went on an expedition down the River of Doubt, a tributary of the Amazon. It tells a story of carelessness, ineptitude, and survival that is almost impossible to believe.

Undaunted Courage - The Lewis and Clark expedition. Trust me; almost everything you think you know about the trip is wrong. The story was so embellished and popularized by later generations with an axe to grind so that most of what we think we know about it is either wrong or misleading. Trust me. You do not know what happened to the expedition members after returning. They do not teach it in primary education, for sure.

Hero of the Empire - The Boer War, a Daring Escape, and the Making of Winston Churchill. It's about Churchhill's involvement in the Boer War of South Africa. Still, it is so instrumental to the outcome of what we think of as modern-day South Africa that it explains why South Africa ended up with apartheid.

Mayflower - A Story of Courage, Community, and War. Most of us are taught about Plymouth Rock and then history fast-forwards to the American revolution. But there is a bunch of stuff that happened in between that this book covers extensively. For example, we are all familiar with the struggles of Indians in the Central part of the US and the West with European colonialism. But there were many Indians on the east Coast in the beginning, and their story is often overlooked or forgotten.
