My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.1 John 3:18 KJV
Is any science trustworthy? The Marxists accuse conservatives of being Flat Earthers who are anti-science to dehumanize their view, but the Marxists are actually the ones who do not follow the true science model. Science requires a skepticism of its theories until it becomes a fact beyond doubt which very few things are in the subjective sciences.
We have watched the deterioration of science over the past fifty years in all of the soft sciences which would be anything outside of the technical and engineering sciences. When man is able to manipulate the data it no longer is science and then becomes an agenda or politics driven. This fall of scientific curiosity coincided with the acceptance of evolution and the elimination of creation as a state controlled belief. When evolution became settled science without any real hard evidence it became the model for all scientific theory.
Politics corrupts everything it touches and evolution is now a purely political agenda to promote Marxism. It is designed to take God out of the creation of mankind and make science or random repetitions as the prime force of the universe. Their problem is that outside of the models and square pegs in round holes being hammered into place, the theory has no physical proof to backup the theory. There is no clear fossil record of a transitory species in existence which there should be trillions of random species crossing from one evolution to the other moving towards man and why has man not evolved?
This is the corruption which science accepts and is the foundation for every soft science theory we have accepted as truth. Once the science is settled then it is no longer able to be challenged no matter how much proof counters it. Science continues to become a consensus gathering movement similar to voting for one theory over another becoming less and less scientific proof leading to abominations like Global Warming, Acid Rain, Ice Age, Ozone hole growth, DDT killing birds and other frauds which have been disproved once the agenda has been promoted. These were all modeled in scientific research and then used to promote Marxism to punish capitalism and regulations were passed to eliminate whatever industry they wanted stopped. This is what science has evolved into as a political weapon to promote an academic and political agenda.
Now science through instant communication has become a debating society between people who agree with each other. Since they are 97% liberal socialists who believe Marxism is a fairer system than Capitalism they are going to advance their agenda through their branch of science. This brings into question all sciences and what is the agenda of those promoting it? If you cannot trust science in general how can you accept anything they tell you without looking at the negative effects?
We are watching so much of this falling apart with this election. All of the prognosticators have been completely wrong with their predictions. Trump and Cruz have blown apart political science in a way we have never seen before. The entire political formula has been destroyed leaving the political scientists with no explanation why Jeb Bush was not able to win with his ability to spend ten times what his competitors spent.
By the political formula Jeb should have won this going away. He had name familiarity as well as the money and organization to overwhelm everyone in the race. All of the political scientists agreed that he was the presumptive winner and it was only a matter of how big rather than if. They had reached their consensus and the election was one of the easiest to predict in history as both Parties lined up to have their dream Clinton/Bush battle of Party dynasties.
The way political science works since Lincoln is every neighborhood is organized by a Party member who has all of the names of the Party members in the neighborhood as well as every other voter and nonvoter. This is organized through a chain of command similar to the military and everyone is reached out to and asked to help with the campaigns. This way both Parties control the vote and everyone is in line and help the preferred candidate.
From a campaign standpoint their formula is they have all of the Party members doing the work they believe is required to win elections. If you knock on ten thousand doors and make a hundred thousand calls and have so many millions of dollars worth of commercials you win the election for a small district. That formula worked in the last century and has no bearing with today. With cell phones and caller ID phone calls are completely useless.
The big fraud is the value of commercials although the campaign managers make millions off them. When you have 300 channels which ones are you going to spend your millions on? Even if the voter is on the channel they may have it recorded and be blasting through it and even if they do see it they are not buying the grainy picture of your competitor and can decide on the internet who they trust.
The good news is the establishment candidates are pouring hundreds of millions down the toilet and getting nothing in return. In Jebs case he was such a bad candidate even if the old science worked he would not have been able to win as we are seeing from Hillary surviving by huge amounts of money and Party organization. It also helps her she has a hundred year old Bolshevik as a competitor.
Donald Trump and to a certain point Ted Cruz has turned their backs on the system and have written their own formula. Cruz unfortunately has followed too much of the system in the need to make his name known. He tried using the old Lincoln formula and counting on commercials to carry his message. He fell for the negative campaign method and that was the kiss of death. He needed to bring a positive message and he never addressed his Natural Birth issue thinking ignoring it would make it disappear and in the back of peoples minds it never left. He could break the habits he was taught how to win and trusted bad science. His mistake in Iowa will never go away and why he is about to lose.
Donald Trump has rewritten the election process. He of course had star name status similar to Reagan, but ignored the consensus for winning elections. He ran the bare minimum commercials and preferred to call in on every news show across the spectrum. Rather than Town Halls he preferred small stadiums and used public theater to get all the cameras to reach his voters as well a huge internet presence. Most of all he had fun and kept his message positive without giving the tired stump speeches and rather prefers a free form delivery.
None of the old media scientists saw this coming and have dismissed him even as he is about to win the nomination going away. They refuse to see what is right in front of their faces because he is not who or what they want and we are witnessing how junk science is formed, promoted and sold. As serious as this is, the exact same consensus method was reached on the multi-trillion dollar Global Warming fraud.
From the medias perspective they were expecting $2 Billion in commercials this presidential election and will receive a billion from Hillary, but from Trump likely less than $100 million spread across radio and TV. Like they say in science, follow the money.
Pray America wakes
My pal and I were discussing this issue last night. I had always told him that there is a scary percentage of Republicans who are gullible and uninformed. Witness Arlen Specter’s victories. But even I am shocked by the size of the cult that is following a man who has enriched MARXIST DEMOCRATS for so many years, and still supports so many policies which will destroy America.
If they could succeed in getting him banned from Twitter and Youtube it would but a serious crimp in his plans.
Political Science - an oxymoron.
I'm sure they'd love to, but then a big chunk of their site traffic would vanish.
That is far from the only problem which is destroying our country. Frankly, I don’t believe a word the Clinton and Pelosi supporter says. But even if a wall is built, he wants to let them all back!
Trump still supports a single payer health care system, and he will have to nominate solid judges and do something about the crushing debt. Ted Cruz will fight on all these fronts for US. Why do you support a guy who talks about stopping people from dying in the streets? That’s crazy talk. As if it’s happening, and national health care can prevent it if it was!
As far as handing out Teddy bears, you can treat people civilly on a personal level, but still believe that they should go back from where they came. And Ted does. Ted scares Washington much more than Chuck U’s patron Donald Trump.

enough braying
Hyperbole much?

Just curious, Bray, if you’ve ever read MORAL DARWINISM, by Benjamin Wiker.
It is an excellent study of how our “modern” weltanschauung-—which presupposes that life is a product of “a chance constellation of energy” (to borrow a quote from Erich Heller)— hearkens back to the world view of Epicurus.
According to Riker, “for Epicurus belief in a God who is actively involved in the affairs of this world and who judges us in the next is a surefire way to destroy one’s personal peace and happiness.”
Hence, Epicurus proposes a view of nature that “conceived of nature that was “ mechanistic”.
So, in this view, there is no objective basis for determining what is “right” and “wrong”,or “good” and “evil”: the basis becomes subjective, and thus determined by whose voice is the loudest, hand the heaviest, and arm the strongest!
No, literal reality.
Are you in favor of that?
Trump is making the GOP tent bigger by showing interest in bread-and-butter issues that impact middle-class America.
Thanks Gramps. Hope all is well.
The press are good at dominating the conversation and talking about what they want to talk about rather than what you or I think is important. I call it the Noise Machine.
If you are a conventional politician, even a good guy like Cruz, you forever face the fact that you will spend millions, millions, traveling the country trying to get your message out about your philosophy and your policies, and the best you’ll get will be a ten second news-clip with a talking head doing a voice-over telling the TV audience that you were in Akron Ohio today blah-blah-blah.
Trump has managed to beat them at their game, getting them to talk about him and whatever he wants to talk about. And he doesn’t have to spend a penny to do it. He infuriates them to such a point that he gets half the questions on debate night, while the rest of the candidates stand around waiting to be asked about something Trump said. So, does Cruz want to shut down the IRS and half the government departments? Who knows, who cares, no one is listening. What about Trump?
This is why, though Cruz is my first choice and Trump my distant second, Trump is going to win this thing and win big. He has learned to harness the Noise Machine and make it work for him.
Well said.
Donald was critical of Romney for his self-deport policy, b/c it was too harsh! Ted clearly had been BS’d by big business interests, but he has seen the light. Cruz has been speaking about building the wall for half a decade, and the press chose to ignore the debate. Trump, to his credit, FORCED the debate, and the press covered it thoroughly thinking they could ridicule him in to silence.
I think that Trump is disastrous on too many other issues, and he is a lying bully, IMO. That’s why I can’t support it.
