Join Fazale “Fuz” Rana and Jeff Zweerink as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God's existence. Biological Basis for Belief? As human beings, our religious nature defines us. Treating it as a scientific question, many scientists wonder, how do we account for human spirituality and religiosity? Are there brain structures and processes that explain this behavior? Using lesion mapping, a research team from Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital recently determined the brain regions and neural circuits that account for religiosity and spirituality. This study (amongst others) raises troubling questions for Christians. Is our spirituality and response to religion based on our brain's biology? Is there a materialistic, mechanistic explanation for religious acceptance? Do people really experience God? In this episode, biochemist Fuz Rana addresses these questions and presents a model that accommodates these scientific findings, while retaining a biblical view of human nature. Woke at the University During the 2023–2024 academic year, Rice University offered a course called “Afrochemistry” that claimed to “apply chemical tools and analysis to understand Black life in the US.” From January 16 to May 16, 2024, AcademicJobsOnline.org advertised a job for the University of Victoria's physics and astronomy department that was only open to an indigenous person. Both examples show how a worldview subversive to the scientific enterprise is spreading into the scientific community. This view of contemporary critical theory sees the world in terms of oppressors and oppressed. In contrast, the Judeo-Christian worldview sees all people as valuable and worthy of God's and our love. Additionally, the Judeo-Christian worldview buttresses and supports the foundation needed for the scientific enterprise to flourish. YOUTUBE LINKS: Michael A.

About this Episode Welcome to today's episode of The Communication Solution podcast with Casey Jackson, John Gilbert and Danielle Cantin. We love talking about Motivational Interviewing, and about improving outcomes for individuals, organizations, and the communities that they serve. In this engaging episode we delve into the intricate dynamics of political discourse, focusing on the challenges and opportunities for understanding and civility. Through personal anecdotes and discussions on the role of values, mindfulness, and the biological underpinnings of conflict, the hosts explore how individuals can engage in political conversations in a way that respects differing perspectives without compromising their own values. The podcast highlights an innovative civility summit initiative that aims to bridge divides through decisional balance exercises, emphasizing the potential for growth and understanding in political dialogue. The conversation encourages listeners to approach political engagement as an informed choice, rather than a conflict, fostering a more constructive and less confrontational political landscape. The episode concludes with an invitation for listeners to share their own experiences and insights on navigating the complex world of politics with civility and respect. In this podcast, we discuss: Introduction to the Challenge of Discussing Politics: The podcast opens with an acknowledgment of the complexities and sensitivities involved in political discussions and the intention to explore these through the lens of motivational interviewing (MI). The Risks and Rewards of Political Discourse: The hosts express excitement and caution about delving into such a contentious topic, emphasizing the importance of setting protective guidelines for a respectful dialogue. Motivational Interviewing and Political Conversations: The discussion clarifies that MI is not intended to change political opinions but can be used to navigate personal ambivalence and improve interactions with others who hold differing views. Exploring Political Beliefs with Empathy and Acceptance: The hosts discuss the potential of MI principles like empathy, acceptance, and positive regard to facilitate more constructive political conversations and reduce conflict. The Influence of Unconscious Bias: The conversation touches on the challenge of recognizing and setting aside unconscious biases to truly listen and understand opposing viewpoints. The Biological Basis of Strong Political Reactions: A shift towards the physiological and biological explanations for the intense emotions and reactions often observed in political debates. Aligning Political Engagement with Personal Values: The hosts reflect on the importance of ensuring one's political actions and discussions are in alignment with their broader value system. The Psychological and Biological Drivers of Political Behavior: A deeper dive into how human psychology and basic survival instincts may underpin political beliefs and behaviors. Considering Politics from a Survival Perspective: The discussion explores the idea that political affiliations and conflicts might be rooted in fundamental survival instincts, such as assessing threats and allies.

How well do you understand the differences between men and women-- Listen to this enlightening lesson to learn that God established these distinctions at creation in order for each to fulfill God's plan. Hear a number of biological differences that begin in the womb and affect the capabilities of each sex. See that there is an inherent authority structure which, if rejected, leads to paganism. Even though God's plan for mankind was corrupted by the Fall, there is redemption and renewal available to all.--Find more information on -The Fallacy of Interchangeability- by Colin Smothers.-https---cbmw.org-2019-06-05-the-fallacy-of-interchangeability--22--Link for -The Biological Basis for Gender-Specific Behavior- by Gregg Johnson.-https---deanbibleministries.org-dbmfiles-notes-Biological-Differences-Between-Males-Females.pdf--Click here for Chapter 16, -Men's and Women's Differences- from Stephen B.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Transhumanism, genetic engineering, and the biological basis of intelligence., published by fowlertm on September 14, 2022 on LessWrong. I recently had a fascinating conversation with Dr. Steven Hsu, theoretical physicist and serial entrepreneur, about computational genomics and genetic engineering. There were a number of really interesting takeaways which I think would be of interest to LWians. Apparently, genetic engineering in the form of embryo selection is very far along. They can already select for things like eye color and propensity for diseases. The only reason they're not selecting for intelligence yet is because there is such a strong stigma and because there's not currently enough labeled training data for the algorithms. The algorithms involved are simpler than you might think, it mostly appears to be basic regression models regularized with LI penalties (as those handle sparse data much better) Dr. Hsu does think it's worth worrying about this technology's potential to worsen inequality, and we kick the ethics of that around for a little bit. Epigenetics plays less of a role in determining life outcomes than many of us have been led to believe. We also discuss whether AGI or genetic engineering will lead to the first superhuman intelligence. Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for listening.

Want a new you for the new year? The holidays are always a busy time for cosmetic procedures. Many people take advantage of unused vacation days, so they have plenty of time to heal from a procedure away from co-workers, and holiday bonuses can free up finances. Plus, it's exciting to think about starting a new year with a fresh look! Cosmetic procedures have been steadily rising thanks to the "Zoom Boom" caused by the pivot to virtual workplaces, and experts fully expect the trend to continue throughout the 2021 holidays and beyond. Web: www.newfaceny.com Follow: @newfaceny Doctors say breast augmentation and Brazilian Butt Lifts are the top surgeries being performed; however, liposuction, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery and facelifts are also on the rise. Less invasive procedures like Botox injections also are skyrocketing. Experts say the Botulinum Toxin market jumped from a -8.6 percent slump in 2020 to a 4.7 percent increase this year, and it's still rising at an even faster pace. Lower facial nonsurgical procedures and lip treatments will continue to rise, and noses will stay strong. Body procedures are booming now that people are going out again. Top New York City plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Westreich offers the following tips for those considering cosmetic procedures: Tip 1: Make sure any doctor you schedule through a virtual visit allows you to cancel AFTER an in-person meeting for surgery. There is no substitute for face to face. Tip 2: Results over name recognition. Your outcome will not be better than what they post online. That's considered their best work. Tip 3: Don't rush. COVID-19 won't last forever, and you will have opportunities in the future that are different but workable. Make sure you're solid before moving on. Dr. Westreich says it's also very important that patients are vaccinated to stay healthy pre- and post-operation. “Although the average daily new COVID cases and deaths were recently declining, the new Delta variant mutations are far more dangerous. This has caused a recent uptick in test positivity rates and virus-related hospitalizations for the first time in months. Despite these alarming statistics, many are still opting to have these elective medical procedures and must take all of the necessary precautions.” More on Dr. Richard Westreich Dr. Richard Westreich graduated Magna Cum Laude with a B.A. in Biological Basis of Behavior, Neuroscience concentration in 1995 from the University of Pennsylvania. He completed his medical school training at the New York University School of Medicine in 1999 with an M.D. and Honors in Cell Biology Research. Dr. Westreich then did his post-graduate training in Facial Plastic Surgery and Otolaryngology at the prestigious Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. He has been selected multiple times by Castle Connolly and New York magazine as one of the top doctors in facial plastic surgery. He is an assistant professor at SUNY Downstate Medical Center and is on staff at Lenox Hill and Mount Sinai Hospitals. He is a faculty member and teacher at a fellowship in Facial Plastic Surgery at Mount Sinai. His private practice is located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where he specializes in rhinoplasty, septoplasty, secondary and reconstructive rhinoplasty, facelifts, eyelid surgery and nonsurgical procedures.

Jacob Ruden is a Neuroscience PhD Candidate at Vanderbilt University. He is completing his thesis work in the laboratory of Dr. Laura Dugan in Vanderbilt University Medical Center's Division of Geriatrics within the Department of Medicine. The Dugan Lab is interested in neuronal injury and inflammation in the brain, and Jacob specifically studies parvalbumin interneuron injury in disease and injury states such as hypoxia. He is using a transgenic mouse model to better understand the nature of parvalbumin neuron injury. Jacob is also generating human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neurons to understand how parvalbumin neuron injury affects the function of receptors in the brain that are important for learning and memory. Jacob grew up in New Jersey and graduated magna cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania in 2015 with a Bachelor of Arts in Biological Basis of Behavior. Jacob is the current co-president of the Vanderbilt Science Policy Group, and he was the president of Vanderbilt's Neuroscience Student Organization for the 2019-2020 academic year.

This episode explores Music and the Brain with our guest, Dr. Michael Kaplan. We discuss the definition of music, changes in the brains of musicians, and the universality of music! Dr. Kaplan has been associated with Penn for over 20 years as a graduate student, a postdoctoral fellow, and most recently as a Lecturer and Lab Coordinator for the Biological Basis of Behavior (BBB) Program. Born and raised in Philadelphia, he graduated from Wesleyan University with degrees in biochemistry and philosophy, then sojourned in New York City to dabble in the music business, where he wrote non-hit songs with titles like “Brain in a Jar.” Perhaps unsurprisingly, he ended up back in science. His research at Penn has focused on synaptic plasticity, both short-term (with Dr. Marc Dichter) and long-term (with Dr. Ted Abel). He is the Master of Ceremonies and head zookeeper at the Neurolab, an undergraduate teaching lab for electrophysiology and computer simulations. Dr. Kaplan has won the BBB Society Teaching Award and was the recipient of the Dean's Award for Distinguished Teaching by Affiliated Faculty in 2009. He teaches The Neuroscience of Music.

A pandemic. It's here, it's real, it's going to leave such an impact--physically, mentally, emotionally, economically, socially--that it will be something we'll never forget for the rest of our lives. But, just because it will have such an impact, doesn't mean there aren't little steps we can take to minimize that impact, protect ourselves and protect those around us and essentially the world as a whole. Join Dr. Roy Vongtama and I as we sit down for this very timely conversation on Coronavirus/Covid-19. He gives us vital information that we can use to give ourselves and our loved ones the best possible chance of making sure we're as safe as we can be, whether we contract the virus or not. We also discuss many myths that are going around the internet and social media and figuring out which are fake news, which are backed up by evidence and which still can't be determined because scientists, doctors and researchers need more time. Dr. Roy is a Board Certified Cancer Specialist with degrees in Biological Basis of Behavior from the University of Pennsylvania, a Medical Doctorate from the University of Buffalo, and a residency at UCLA.

Most Marketing Trends guests focus on a specific strategy, tactic, or technology. But Geoffrey Miller, Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of New Mexico, starts with marketing's most fundamental question: Why do people buy things? On this episode, Geoffrey talks about biology, evolution, and how psychology affects the way consumers respond to marketing. He digs into how people's fundamental wants and needs inform what they buy and who they buy from. Links: Full Notes & Quotes: http://bit.ly/2P8BRKE Geoffrey’s LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/geoffrey-miller-002a3710/ Geoffrey’s Twitter: twitter.com/primalpoly PrimalPoly: primalpoly.com/ 5 Key Takeaways: - Virtue signaling, or the natural instinct to show that we are good people, is an important behavior exhibited by almost everyone. - "Fundamentally, what matters to people is not material wealth. It's maximizing things like your social status, your attractiveness, and your prestige." - Geoffrey Miller - We have a deep need for story and narrative. Stories are how we learn and how we've entertained ourselves for thousands of years. - "I think innovative brands and psychology-savvy marketers can now add a lot of value to people's lives in totally new ways that might not even require buying the product." - Geoffrey Miller - Consumers rarely know themselves as well as they think they do, and their stated reasons for making purchases are often different from their true motivations. Bio: Geoffrey Miller is an evolutionary psychologist best known for his books The Mating Mind, Mating Intelligence, Spent, and Mate. He has a B.A. in Biology and Psychology from Columbia University and a Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology from Stanford University, and is a tenured associate professor at University of New Mexico. He has over 110 academic publications (cited over 14,000 times) addressing sexual selection, mate choice, signaling theory, fitness indicators, consumer behavior, marketing, intelligence, creativity, language, art, music, humor, emotions, personality, psychopathology, and behavior genetics. He has also given over 200 talks in 16 countries, reviewed papers for over 50 journals, and also worked at NYU Stern Business School, UCLA, and the London School of Economics. --- Marketing Trends is brought to you by our friends at Salesforce Pardot, B2B marketing automation on the world’s #1 CRM.

In 1495, a mysterious and deadly plague struck the city of Naples. Over the next 500 years, the medical attempts to understand and treat this new disease -- syphilis -- would mold and shape medicine in surprising ways. In this episode, Tony Breu and I will perform an historical and physiological biography of syphilis, covering the development of germ theory, epic poetry, mercury saunas, intentionally infecting patients with malaria, magic bullets, and lots and lots of experiments on poor rabbits. This presentation was performed live at the American College of Physicians’ national meeting in Philadelphia on April 11, 2019.

Recent research shows that genetics as well as environment contribute to our political opinions. Social and political psychologist Rose McDermott of Brown Univiersity, a Stanford CASBS fellow, explains the biological foundations of ideology, how conservative and liberals react to each other's scent, and much more. From July 02016.
This week on "Rebel Hearts": Kristie talks with Dr. Roy Vongtama, a holistic physician and actor whose multidimensional talents encompass science, art and spirituality. Dr Roy holds a BA in Biological Basis of Behavior from University of Pennsylvania (with Magna Cum Laude honors), a Medical Degree from the University of Buffalo, and a Board Certification in Radiation Oncology from UCLA, along with authorship in over 15 scientific articles. His most recent theater credits include EST/LA’s 2016 LA Ovation Award-winning "Watching OJ", "Brothers Paranormal" at La Jolla Playhouse and "Pan Asian Repertory". Film and TV credits include "The Bucket List", "Private Practice", "The Shield" and "NCIS:LA". His production company Resonant Entertainment released their first feature, "After the Rain", in 2017. Dr Roy talks about how he has always had an innate sense of curiosity, asking questions about things no one else would ask about or often even had answers to. After starting his work as an oncologist, that curiosity and willingness to explore new things lead him to asking his cancer patients questions about their family and relationships, their life's journey and their current circumstances, and he found a common thread amongst his patients. Find out about the three questions that Dr Roy asks his patients and the answers all of them have in common. Falling in love with the practice of meditation and seeing the effects it has had on his own life, Dr Roy encourages many of his patients to start meditating themselves. He speaks about how many of us are so disconnected from our emotions and usually tend to suppress pain, trauma and grief instead of acknowledging it in order to heal. He speaks about how his work an an actor has affected his own emotional life and capacity, and how he applies this knowledge now to his work with his patients. Dr Roy speaks about his upcoming book "Healing Before You’re Cured" in which he shares the principles of healing that he has gathered as a holistic physician, encompassing meditation, cognitive psychology, traumatic discovery and healing, as well as nutrition combined with 25 years of Western medical training. He talks abut how often we look at one aspect of our life in order to cure an illness, but since our beingn-ess encompasses body, mind, spirit and soul, it is so important to approach the healing process by looking at all of these aspects in order to create health on all levels. Find out how you can be or become healthy through a holistic approach of life!
The Outer Limits of Inner Truth examines the medicinal & spiritual benefits of MDMA. Also known ecstasy, MDMA is a synthetic compound that produces hallucinations, feelings of emotional warmth and high levels of energy. The same psychoactive properties that make ecstasy so popular with partygoers may also make it useful in treating post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD. Outer Limits of Inner Truth Show Guest Key: 02:14 - Dr. Julie Holland 25.01 - James Giordano, PhD. 42:77 - Psychic Medium Kerrie O'Connor 47:33 - Psychic Medium Lisa Caza Other research has found that MDMA has robust anticancer properties, particularly for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. In 2011, researchers from the University of Birmingham found that a slightly modified form of ecstasy was 100 times more potent at destroying cancer cells than the original form of MDMA. "Further work is required, but this research is a significant step forward in developing a potential new cancer drug," the researchers said in a statement. Featured Guests Include: Dr. Julie Holland is a board-certified psychiatrist in New York City. As an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Holland majored in the "Biological Basis of Behavior," a series of courses combining the study of psychology and neural sciences, with a concentration in psychopharmacology, or drugs and the brain. In 1992, Dr. Holland received her medical degree from Temple University School of Medicine, where she performed research on auditory hallucinations, extensively interviewing nearly one hundred psychotic patients. In 1996, she completed a psychiatric residency at Mount Sinai Medical Center, where she was the creator of a research project treating schizophrenics with a new medication, obtaining an IND from the Food and Drug Administration. In 1994, she received the Outstanding Resident Award from the National Institute of Mental Health. From 1996 to 2005, Dr. Holland ran the psychiatric emergency room of Bellevue Hospital on Saturday and Sunday nights. A liaison to the hospital's medical emergency room and toxicology department, she is considered an expert on street drugs and intoxication states, and lectures widely on this topic. She published a paper in the Journal of Psychoactive Drugs, describing a resurgence of the drug phenomenon smoking marijuana soaked in embalming fluid, which may be a carrier for PCP. She is available for forensic consultations involving embalming fluid intoxication. During her college years, Dr. Holland grew interested in a new drug being used as a psychotherapeutic catalyst, and authored an extensive research paper on MDMA (ecstasy), resulting in multiple television appearances, forensic consultations, and a book, James Giordano, PhD. , is Chief of the Neuroethics Studies Program of the Edmund D. Pellegrino Center for Clinical Bioethics; is a professor on the faculties of the Division of Integrative Physiology/Department of Biochemistry, Interdisciplinary Program in Neuroscience, and Graduate Liberal Studies Program at Georgetown University, Washington, D.C.; and is a Senior Fellow of the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies, a Washington D.C. area think tank devoted to the analysis and guidance of emerging science and technology. He serves on the Neuroethics, Legal and Social Issues Advisory Panel for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and is a Fellow of the Center for National Preparedness at the University of Pittsburgh, PA. His ongoing research addresses the neuroscience of pain, neuropsychiatric spectrum disorders, the neural bases of moral cognition and action, and the neuroethical issues arising in neuroscientific and neurotechnological research and its applications in medicine, public life, global relations, and national security. In recognition of his ongoing work, he was awarded Germany's Klaus Reichert Prize in Medicine and Philosophy (with longtime collaborator Dr. Roland Benedikter); was named National Distinguished Lecturer of both Sigma Xi, the national research honor society, and IEEE; and was elected to the European Academy of Sciences and Arts. Psychic Medium Kerrie O'Connor Internationally known, Master Visionary Clairvoyant, , has the extraordinary ability to “Read” your unique energy field, and like a tuning fork, help you raise your vibrational level so that you can finally attract your heart's desires.

Advances in genomic medicine indicate that pediatric cancers may be quite different from their adult counterparts. Hear from experts on why this might be and what scientists are doing to understand it better. Many pediatric cancers do not harbor the same targetable mutations seen in adult tumors, making it imperative that we understand the reasons behind these differences. Following up on the 2016 Sohn Conference, "Pediatric Cancer in a Post-genomic World," presented by The Sohn Conference Foundation and the New York Academy of Sciences, this podcast gives listeners a glimpse into where research and treatment are today and where they are headed in the future.
Dr Pratik Mukhrjee and Dr. Elysa Marco on their Breakthrough study of biological basis for sensory processing disorders in kids In a groundbreaking new study from UC San Francisco, researchers have found that children affected with SPD have quantifiable differences in brain structure, for the first time showing a biological basis for the disease that sets it apart from other neurodevelopmental disorders. One of the reasons SPD has been overlooked until now is that it often occurs in children who also have ADHD or autism, and the disorders have not been listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual used by psychiatrists and psychologists. "Until now, SPD hasn't had a known biological underpinning," said senior author Pratik Mukherjee, MD,

After graduating Magna Cum Laude, with a Bachelor of Arts in the Biological Basis of Behavior, Dr. Weiss returned to Los Angeles and taught high school biology and algebra. He subsequently attended medical school at the University of California, Los Angeles School of Medicine where he graduated with honors/Alpha Omega Alpha and then completed an orthopedic surgery residency at UCLA-Harbor Medical Center. During his residency, Dr. Weiss had extensive exposure to general orthopedics and orthopedic trauma. Afterwards, he completed a sports medicine fellowship at UCLA Medical Center, where he served as a team physician for the UCLA football, volleyball, and baseball teams.In addition to his background in general orthopedics, orthopedic sports medicine, and orthopedic trauma, Dr. Weiss loves working with children and has developed expertise in treating pediatric orthopedic trauma, including the operative and non-operative management of broken bones and other injuries. He has written many articles on laser surgery and the MRI evaluation of articular cartilage and has lectured extensively on the evaluation and management of sports related injuries. As an avid runner, competing in both marathons and triathlons, he has firsthand knowledge of the physical and mental challenges athletes face.Dr. Weiss is a Board certified Diplomate of the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery and a member of the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons.

Lott Jr. http://tinyurl.com/elg5u For a rights-respecting person, the freedom to defend yourself is absolute Peaceful coexistence is impossible with the gang called government Defining one's terms: "competing governments" as contradictory A coercive monopoly in the realm of justice essentially ruins society Rand's (and big "O"bjectivists') strain of authoritarian sociopathy Basically, people's fear of conflict with other people enslaves them and perpetuates government A coercive monopoly of "justice" services, i.e., government (even one funded voluntarily) will always provide unjust and incompetent and expensive "services" One case in point: Laws against private electricity production commerce; Jon Udell's Interviews with Innovators: Jock Gill - On Energy, IT, Markets and Society http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail3825.html My experiences with the local mafia with a flag--parking ticket Nazis--who look to make criminals out of rights-respecting individuals The brilliance of Ayn Rand was that she taught individuals to think independently and to use logic according to the main metaphysical laws (identity, causality, and non-contradiction) Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology by Ayn Rand, Leonard Peikoff, Harry Binswanger http://scholar.google.com.mx/books?id=_znYGPoNe2wC&dq=subject:%22Objectivism+(Philosophy)%22&lr=&as_brr=0&hl=en&rview=1&pgis=1 Objectively speaking, the coercive monopoly of government is a authoritarian mythology that contradicts the virtue of justice The Biological Basis of Teleological Concepts by Harry Binswanger http://www.aynrandbookstore2.com/prodinfo.asp?number=CB02B Seeing "police" for what they are: individuals who join a gang that violates individual rights and only pays lip service to the virtue of justice (enough to hoodwink those they rule over and maintain their coercive monopoly) Central planning is authoritarian sociopathy writ large--in which fears and love of domination deny freedom of choice The most vile form of mysticism: the murderous meme of government, which has no "procedural safeguards" Government as the preeminent violator of individual rights: denying people's capacity to choose a real upholder of justice So naturally, real upholders of justice will be seen as threats to government Understanding individual rights is simple: Don't hit people, don't take their stuff, and honor your promises (though no involuntary servitude is valid) "Our Enemy, The Party" by SEKIII posted by Wally Conger http://wconger.blogspot.com/2008/10/our-enemy-party.html The ills of "partyarchy," i.e., vote-chasing and power-seeking; the absurd oxymoron of politician libertarianism "The hopeless utopia of minarchy" Distinction between politics and ethics, objectively speaking http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/morality.html Seeking freedom via the State is wrong; to be consistent, one must favor not only abolition over gradualism but also market over power as the means to achieve freedom SEKIII: "The State loses by each free transaction committed in defiance or evasion of its laws, regulations and taxes; the State gains by every compliance with, acceptance of, and payment to its institutions. Thus does agorism create anarchy and partyarchy preserve the State." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-economics Objectivists will always lose their argument for government to their more statist comrades Coffee and chocolate are the key to long life by Richard Gray, Science Correspondent http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/health/3223650/Coffee-and-chocolate-are-the-key-to-long-life.html bumper music "Letter From The Government" by Brother Ali http://www.brotherali.com/ http://www.myspace.com/brotherali to comment, please go to http://completeliberty.com/magazine/category/91697
