Fickle Humans

-
Ok, here we go slipping and sliding headlong into the maeltrom of the most controversial yet enduring facets of humanity. A little apprehensive? Maybe. Well, why not; for nothing is beyond the realms of discussion, especially when it's so indelibly stitched into the human fabric. God made man in his own image, and Allah summoned Mohammed to haeven on a winged horse. There should be a mention of YWHW destroying humanity in a manner also described in the Epic of Gilgamesh. Thats a bit of a mouthful for a start.

Where would social and scientific norms be without religion?

Does religion dictate morality?

The answer to this a vague "it depends."

In Shitoism, a sexual orgasm is handled pretty much as a state of spirtual enlightenment.

Try talking about sex in coservative Abrahamic faith circles and the disapproval will have you crossing over Mecca and Jerusalem and all the way to the most hedonistic clubs of Berlin. Should it be thus though? Humanity not only loves sex, it needs to be candid and expressive about it. Entire industries have sprung up because someone lusted over another and needed the ways and means to entertain and cater to their whims. One could say that lust and covetousness drives commerce.

Yet they are sins.

What's a sin anyway? The most fervently religious of countries (including the US) seem to be remarkably tolerant of economic corruption as long as their one single issue is met. In the once sexually liberal continent of Africa, the citizenry still ascribe to Victorian era societal norms. In the same countries, it's common to have political leaders getting away with literal bloody murder. Yet the LGBTQA+ are the enemy that must never be allowed to fester over the corrupt wound of Africa, for the almighty gods decreed thus in a myriad holy books.

What's a sin?

Certainly not graft, or paedophilia by clergy because they get prayed over and cleansed. Wait, but don't the poor hit the jailyards because of such trifles, and for a long time too? Well, your social status dictates justice because that's how it's supposed to be, heathens!

Healthcare? Nope. Everyone pays, and the elite "travel abroad" for treatment.

They'll steal from their own homes and not even have the decency to sweep the backyard, because they can! Because leaders are chosen by god!

It's almost as if nobody voted.

Of course the only issues that exist are social ones.

Probably some nations need to drink the water that turns frogs gay so that they can emerge from their self-imposed intellectual cocoons.

Who knows?

Enjoy the open road.

Mad Cow Disease

The variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD) crisis, also known as the "human mad cow disease" crisis, was a significant event that followed the "mad cow disease" (BSE) crisis that occurred primarily in the United Kingdom (UK) in the 1980s and 1990s. vCJD is a rare and fatal neurodegenerative disorder that is believed to be caused by exposure to the abnormal prion proteins that are associated with BSE. The first cases of vCJD were identified in the UK in 1996, and it quickly became apparent that the disease was linked to the consumption of beef from infected cattle. Prion protein (stained in red) revealed in photomicrograph of scrapie-infected mouse neural tissue. Produced by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) As the number of vCJD cases continued to rise, concerns grew about the potential scale of the outbreak and the potential risks to public health. The UK government initially downplayed the risks of vCJD and resisted ca...

The Dire Dregs Of Days

"We are a blessed nation and people!" Yes, there was an election, and Kenyans rushed to congratulate themselves in a manner akin to patting their dicks after an orgasm. The land is a blessed one, it has to be said: it is a land blessed with ignorance, irredeemably corrupt leeches, general political shithousery, drought, inflation, near-theocratic leadership with a touch of the corruptly macabre....it's a long list of blessings. It's a land where wealth simply disappears into the blessed pockets of a few, and, just like the "holy ghost," reappears in the pockets of the same well-heeled elite who are all seemingly acquainted with some fellow named "scratch." High net worth folk tell tales of "rearing chicken" and "selling corn cobs by the roadside," and sell the capitalistic hope of success from "scratch." As an aside, who the hell is this scratch? Can he scratch a few tickets to every scroungers wealth, maybe sate every...

Palestine

Israel has long implemented a policy of demolishing homes belonging to Palestinians accused of killing Israelis. This extends to the extended family of those accused. Basically, it is a cycle of revenge and deprivation. Anyone with a locum of thought can easily see what the Israeli regime is doing: it is a scorched earth policy on steroids. And still the fighting goes on unabated, albeit mostly away from the larger global stage. Apartheid is a policy or system of discrimination on grounds of race. It can loosely apply to systematic segregation on gender and religious basis. Quite obviously, what the Israeli regime is carrying on with and in the Palestinian Territories is a form of apartheid.  Zones of French and British influence and control proposed in the Sykes-Picot Agreement¹ Now, as with everything inane in 20th century history, colonialism played a massive role in the état de choses today. As with India and Pakistani, the British royally bent over and historically...
