@S_Coughlin_DC I'm probably more conservative than you on the 'evolution' topic as it relates to religion (to put it bluntly, I'm a Young Earth Creationist) -- however, as a scientist, it doesn't bother me that other scientists use the concept.
@S_Coughlin_DC First, we are talking microevolution here. It is certainly true that Darwin and that lyer Haeckel were misused in the service of philosophy -- and not mainstream until the Neo-Darwinian synthesis of the 1930s. Thus, pure propaganda.
@S_Coughlin_DC Evolution really does play an important unifying role in the science of Biology

For a website (with an annoying popup) that relates Aquinas and Aristotle to a keen interest in Evolution, I offer Dutch Philosopher Jaap Bax:

@GigiSims10 I think it partly takes a while for things to work their course. The Soviet Union took two full generations and maybe more. *If* it did (Golitsyn thesis is a thing)

and I don't think we can be spared our Solzhenitsyn 'Live by Truth' moments.
@GigiSims10 'Embrace the Horror' as linuxhippie said really does mean to face the Truth we are embracing a horror -- mostly where we are coming from, since the actual Truth is not so bad in comparison to the Sleep of Reason.
@GigiSims10 But the first step towards *real* (authentic, truthful) action is a sober assessment of 'where we are at'.

Partly we don't know: I can't tell you whether the Financial Crisis of 2007 ended with the fatal crisis of 2021/22, or if we will *ever* see a technological world like...

1960s: One word. Plastics.

Aughties: Three Words. My Favourite Goat.

@LaocoonofTroy
btw, I've always thought that the iconic 'plastics' was a deliberate leak of nuclear secrets (a reference to fogbank). Hollywood inside joke. Prove me wrong.

@fingerishatroc1
It's ironic that George Bush had to initiate a crash programme to remember how to *make* the fogbank material, just to keep old 70s weapons designs in repair.

Finally we arrive at thread 6/6
I think it is pretty clear that the government is illegitimate (though I'd argue it complies with the altered Constitution of the US -- but that was already tyrannical as SCOTUS clearly shows in Roe v Wade if nowhere else) -- abortion is not the Salus of any Populi...
... but rather a 'Religon of Death' as Socialism has sometimes been called.

And changing the US Constitution from FDR Socialism to some weird alliance of the CCP and an Islamic State (a Heresy, mind you, and against the Salvation of the People,

An interlude:

Specifically, which of these are allowed morally and politically, effectively:
- non-collaboration and non-resistance
- non-collaboration with resistance
- 'protesting' individually or verbally
- mass line of protesting
- armed resistance ('rebellion')
Non-collaboration with evil that doesn't involve resistance to the magistrate -- is your clear duty

Non-collaboration *with* resistance violates even the duty owed a usurper and tyrant *HOWEVER* it is only seeming resistance if you can show the tyrant is violating the Law of God
... and in many cases this case can probably be made.

'protesting' individually or verbally - this is pure vanity. Non-collaboration, keeping a low profile, obeying the Law of God, yes

Grandstanding and 'street dialectic' with Marxist is never correct or ethical.

Thread 5/6. Everyone's favourite.

5. Legit ways of dissent?
#NRx actually gets this right. Hobbes on the Left, Filmer on the Right. Both are 'Passive Obedience' advocates and so is NRx.

You can fall into a dialectical trap if you like, and fight Marxism in the streets by being a TOOL OF MARXISM.

May your chains rest lightly upon you.
OR, you can start to think and plan, rationally, like Christians.
