Narcissist has become a word without meaning. Based on the official definition, I would assume only small portion of population would qualify as a narcissist. Yet, I think I have never *not* heard someone describe their ex as a narcissist. The new definition of narcissist is someone who sometimes does or says rude things. Or better, someone who sometimes does or says things I don't like.

Just kidding. What he says in the video should be common sense. It's too bad everyone doesn't have that perspective. It's tricky with religion where you think absolute truth is involved. If absolute truth about God and religion exists, then it would be pretty important. You might even sound like a narcissist if you believed it strong enough and were serious about helping others believe and conform to it. But then if you did have absolute truth about God, maybe you *should* take it seriously enough that you would be perceived as a narcissist by others.

These types of discussions now seem so quaint and needless. We are facing a religion much more dangerous than Christianity--socialism. Indeed, religion may be what ultimately is saving us from the abyss. Religion and corporations.When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Weird convergence with SU and Ezra Benson going on here. Which alternative timeline is this?"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.
Woot
I believe religion has much inherent good and has born many good fruits.

This is how to respond to leftist fantasies. Okay, what will happen if suddenly there are no capitalism or fossil fuels? What would the world be?When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

I'm an anyone-but-Trump supporter... that's the bar for me in 2020. If that is BS or the other old white guy or Warren or the lei-wearing Gabbard or whoever, I'm in.
Your redefinition of "socialism" is a fun game you like to play, which you then use as a cudgel indiscriminately. As a student of your posts and a great admirer, I expect more nuance from you.You're actually pretty funny when you aren't being a complete a-hole....so basically like 5% of the time. --Art Vandelay
