One unflattering view of SEP leader David North and his World Socialist Website
David North
UPDATE: Comments have been closed on this article because I simply cannot waste my time replying to people who are not worth replying to. I regard the Socialist Equality Party as detritus left over from the period when sect and cult formations operated in much more fertile soil. Today they are completely irrelevant. I only commented on the WSWS's laughable article because the website is influential to an extent on people who are not mentally ill. Those who are part of David North's fan base had their moment to make their case here and they ruined it by evading my repeated demands that they explain the obvious contradiction between Robert Scher's written statement and the comments he made–at least how they interpreted them–during the Congressional questioning seen on Youtube. That's all folks. Don't go away angry. Just go away.

Neil deGrasse Tyson’s Staggering Fall from Grace: When “Science” Becomes the Joke
Clara Winslow
Nov 25, 2024
In a world grappling with real crises and questions demanding intellectual rigor, Neil deGrasse Tyson, once a beacon of accessible science, has descended into an embarrassing spiral of oversimplifications and misplaced arrogance. The self-proclaimed torchbearer of scientific thought recently made headlines—not for groundbreaking insights, but for a stunning display of intellectual hubris that left even his supporters wincing.
In an interview that quickly went viral for all the wrong reasons, Tyson attempted to lecture his audience on gender identity and societal norms, wading into waters far removed from his astrophysical expertise. Rather than enlightening, his comments revealed a startling detachment from reality and an eagerness to parrot trendy ideologies without the slightest acknowledgment of dissent or complexity.

Trump administration offers buyouts to all 2 million federal workers
Both the just defeated WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party and the victorious Trump MAGA Republican Party - this perpetual TWO PARTY SYSTEM - is fundamentally loyal to the American plutocracy, to the ruling capitalist class. The STATE they serve was accurately described by the Russian Revolutionary leader V. I. Lenin circa 1917 : " State and Revolution ". The Republicans in " OUR democracy " are more eager for the state of the millionaires and billionaires to drop the non-essentials ( past concessions to an insurgent working class ) and show its POLICE STATE fangs and its military might to intimidate the working class at home and its numerous foreign foes abroad . To show the world just WHO is really on top - the American imperialist together forever with the Israeli Zionists in crimes against humanity.
But the long written history of the human race shows a dreary succession of ruined empires and ruined ruling classes. In which the voice of the Biblical Ecclesiastes is heard, as if from above : " Vanity of vanities, all is vanity ".
But then what did the WOKE WARRIOR Democrats have to offer " OUR democracy " in Election 2024 ? Not one member of the traditional " party of labor " was a voice for world peace and real social justice. In fact for years the Democrats promoted the HATE RUSSIA New McCarthyism. They enabled the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza, Palestine. Instead of real SOCIAL JUSTICE they offered us a Hollywood celebrity vision of WOKE bliss based on daffy identity politics and vacuous political correctness. And their league of ACLU lawyers never applied " Critical Race Theory " to APARTHEID Israel.
All those fearful for losing their jobs, state and federal government office workers ( reliable "VOTE DEMOCRAT" types ) excelled in often making themselves inaccessible to struggling working class people desperately in need of HELP ! And they never failed to exhibit ATTITUDE toward working class people : of smirking disdain and contempt for the hoi polloi . And it was smarter to send tax payer BILLIONS to the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel and to the warmonger embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine . The California wild fire victims can wait in line !

New Atheism's most polarising figure?
The New Atheism Cult -led by biologist Richard Hawkins - is not lacking in IMPURE THOUGHTS and motivations . Their cult leaders are all shills for Israeli Zionism, American imperialism, and very irrational global capitalism. In a way, the New Atheism is a more a product of " The End of Science " than of the end of Faith .
So you see just how honest the New Atheism is in its war on the IRRATIONAL !
Why Religion Doesn’t Make Sense Anymore
It seems that the mostly New Atheism Cult roadshow mocking God and Faith won't easily go away. For me , an independent democratic socialist from a proud " Old Catholic " background, the always obnoxious and arrogant New Atheists signify more " The End of Science " than the end of Faith. The motivations of this CULT are hardly pure: THEY want to put the whole world back on the path of " The Age of Reason " ( in the manner the Great French Revolution of 1789 ) . It does seem that FAITH and Catholicism in particular very well survived the fleeting " Age of Reason " ( which gave way to a longer " Reign of Terror " ) in France. The famous Cathedral of Notre Dame testifies to the endurance of the MYSTICAL in the soul of the people.
Today for the bold New Atheism " Age of Reason " revival seems to embrace very much the oh-so- rational status quo of global CAPITALISM and AMERICAN IMPERIALISM together forever with Israeli Zionism in crimes against humanity.
The biggest mistake of the collapsed Soviet Union ( a country founded on the then revolutionary energy of many young atheist Jews , according to Winston Churchill ) was not SOCIALISM . It was making itself a universally abhorred dreary " officially atheist " tyranny.
Today it seems that the vast majority of " public intellectual " Jews are equally fervent , idol worshipping converts to the nation state of Zionist APARTHEID Israel ( their proverbial " Golden Calf " worship for most of the 20th century and 25 years into the present century.
No surprise that ALL of the New Atheism cult leaders are tainted with pathological Islamophobia ( not quite balanced by their hatred and contempt for Catholicism and Christianity in general ) . They are all barely disguised shills for global capitalism, American imperialism , and Israeli Zionism.
NOTE : According to reliable news reports the world is no longer paying much attention to them ( despite the ubiquitous YouTube New Atheism Roadshow Circus ) .
As for " The End of Science " ? Well not quite . There are still things to get the tax paying public excited about : like blacker black holes in deep space and a multi-billion dollar search for " Son of God " particle . The UNIVERSE ,as Science honestly describes it galaxy by galaxy , planet by planet in our own Solar System , conforms more to Providence , Rhode Island horror writer H.P. Lovecraft's " COSMIC HORROR " than to starry eyed astronomer Carl Sagan's happy " COSMIC VISION " of what " hydrogen atoms can do after 10 billion years of cosmic evolution ". Among other UNKNOWN horrors there is present day Satan ruling , Hell on Earth . So God is Nowhere ? Or God is Now Here or at least about to return ?
[ “The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age. ”]

Watch Harris & Hitchens Expose The God Delusion For 1 Hour
These underemployed scientists - these New Atheism cult roadshow celebs - daily UNMASK really pernicious irrationality in the wrong place. Hardly anywhere in the world is organized religion actively persecuting heretics . In places like Iran it is a reaction to years of oppression by foreign imperialism.
What the oh-so-smart New Atheist roadshow cranks do not see is how CAPITALISM , AMERICAN IMPERIALISM, and ISRAELI ZIONISM " poison everything ". And they ALL are the perfect shills for at least these three EVIL forces in the world. If they could, they would establish an " officially atheist " state in " OUR democracy " - much like the dreary tyranny that was the old Stalinist Soviet Union ( minus the " socialism " ).
The New Atheist cult roadshow signifies not so much a coming End of Faith but the virtual " End of Science ". Nothing to discover now but blacker black holes in deep space and the " Son of God " particle ? And for more modest HUMANIST scientists discovering that " God ( as a pre-scientific age conceived the Supreme Being ) " does not exist " is pretty stale news . You can be sure that no working class individuals will flock to these New Atheism roadshow lectures. And not because they are hostile to SCIENCE .
What passes for SCIENCE today is owned and controlled by the world plutocracy dominated by American imperialism and Israeli Zionism. Without the nefarious military industrial complex most of our New Atheism zealots would be over-educated, unemployable paupers . And they might not be so complacent about CAPITALISM, American imperialism, and Israeli Zionism.

What really is poisoning everything now is CAPITALISM, AMERICAN IMPERIALISM, and ISRAELI ZIONISM for which the New Atheist cult celebs are shills for all three !

Perfect Arguments Against God Christians HATE to Hear
The New Atheist Cult roadshow celebs are beginning to seem like UNDEREMPLOYED scientists. All that cerebral power, all those hard earned science degrees ,now go to their roadshow attacks on a nearly universal belief in God , in a Supreme Being , a universal belief in some transcendent moral law. Many of these New Atheist celebs have made headlines for their degenerate sexual behavior around the opposite sex. Go GOOGLE this ! Just check out Mr. Kraus and Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
These oh-so-brilliant intellects find nothing so perniciously irrational in life as religious FAITH. That does not deter them from being shills for jackass patriotism, for jackass nation-state worship , for being shameless shills for very IRRATIONAL global capitalism, American imperialism, and Israeli Zionism. Perhaps this is a clue to their funding . Very few working class individuals are going to buy high priced tickets to to listen to egocentric -UNDEREMPLOYED - scientists attack their precious and sustaining FAITH in GOD . The New Atheist are trying to create a petty bourgeois intellectual New Atheist community . This " community " can always be mobilized to vote for WOKE WARRIOR " liberal " ( especially ZIONIST Jew ) Democrats. Mobilized to vote for more money - more BILLIONS - to hunt down yet another " God Particle " or perhaps blacker Black Holes in deep space. Next goal finding " Son of God " particle !
What we are witnessing here is not the crumbling world of FAITH but indeed " The End of Science ".

In 2016 the mainstream news media smeared Donald Trump as an Anti-Semite.
Trump to ‘bring back free speech’ and only recognise two genders
It is with some irony that I can commend this purported " fascist " ( from the pseudo Left in " OUR democracy ) and now once again President of the United States Donald Trump for at least declaring the Free Speech , Free Thought tradition of Western Civilization not quite dead in " OUR democracy ". Even though Trump promised a while back to ban SOCIALISM ( and I presume socialists such as myself ) from " OUR democracy .
For years the mainstream news media in " OUR democracy " never failed to show implacable hostility to " The Donald ". It even claimed after his shocking 2016 Election victory over WOKE WARRIOR Democrat Hillary Clinton that Trump was an American Hitler type anti-Semite.
Curiously ,Trump is more popular in APARTHEID Israel than Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. I just read that some 70 percent of American Jewish voters voted for Kamala Harris in Election 2024.
Despite all this Trump routed Harris in Election 2024. I must assume that " FREE SPEECH " in " OUR democracy " triumphed underground BLOCKED by the DEEP STATE political establishment and the mainstream news media. ( I am sure that a chastised news media will now show the greatest respect for FREE SPEECH in " OUR democracy " . Perhaps even opponents of genocide in Gaza , Palestine might get a voice in the New York Times . Also, Facebook and YouTube will be born again champions of FREE SPEECH .
So although a longtime independent democratic socialist I am rather curiously " soft on " fascist " Trump . For now ! In the future I might be one of many anathematized socialists reduced to writing unpublished " Letters from Prison ". At least my blog will remain in the realm of FREE SPEECH in " OUR democracy ".

Imagine this obnoxious roadshow New Atheism " God Hating " the highest form of rationality in " OUR democracy " !
Also, I hope his New Atheism morals instructs Neil to be a gentleman around women. The same for Mr. Kraus ( " A Universe from Nothing " ) and the late great science writer Isaac Asimov ( whose son was identified as the King of Child Pornography in California ( ? ) ) .
Ex Trotskyist Christopher Hitchens died a warmongering, Islamophobic drunk . Nope, nothing wrong here ! Clearly militant atheism is not the path to personal sanity and to a saner world .

David Asimov, son of the late science fiction writer Isaac Asimov, was arraigned in Sonoma County (Calif.) Municipal Court on Monday and charged with felony exploitation of a child and related child pornography charges.
Asimov, 46, was arrested on Thursday, after members of the Santa Rosa Police Department seized more than 4,000 computer disks and videotapes from his Bennett Ridge home.
"There were thousands of disks, thousands of videos," said Sonoma County Deputy District Attorney Gary Medvigy, who is handling the case. "Anything imaginable regarding sex between human beings and human beings, or human beings and animals, was there. Whatever your imagination can conjure up, he had it."]

Richard Dawkins - Evolution vs. Religion?
You would be politically unsophisticated to think that this obnoxious New Atheism Cult road show is devoted to enlightening the imagined dark minds of the masses ( dumb enough to still believe in God ! ) . They do have a definite political agenda : they are shameless shills for Israeli Zionism together forever with American imperialism in crimes against humanity. They are shameless shills for global capitalism, war mongering NATO, and the notorious military industrial complex of the West .
As pretending " liberals ", ideologically in tune with the WOKE WARRIOR American Democratic Party, they are far closer in their general philosophy to the right wing militant atheist Ayn Rand than to the HUMANIST tradition of openly atheist Isaac Asimov , Carl Sagan , and Bertrand Russell . How fitting that the Ayn Rand philosophy classic is titled " The Virtue of Selfishness " !
Like many ( or all ? ) Marxist " vanguard " parties on the Left ( also militantly atheist ) they have no roots in the working class of any country . Their natural habitat is invariably petty bourgeois Academia.
Schools update policies following Trump's executive order on immigrants
I wonder why the WOKE Democrats in Rhode Island persist in their pretense of being so much more solicitous for the vast troubled migrant population than for a few hundred chronically homeless CITIZENS sleeping outside right under their noses ?
The way the capitalist system works is that nobody gets a job just because they are willing and able to work. The CAPITALIST must find their labor power exploitable, in tune with their PROFIT SYSTEM.
If the numerous migrants remain in the country , should these migrant ( workers or criminals ? ) have AFFIRMATIVE ACTION access to jobs and housing ?
To be sure , an international socialist government of the Western hemisphere would have no problem establishing EQUILIBRIUM between workers coming and going across nation-state borders. The only way out for capitalism in crisis is lies and brutality !
Unpacking Campus Antisemitism: Insights and Realities
Not old fashioned " liberal " Democrats want to redefine anti-Semitism so that students protesting Israeli genocide in Gaza, Palestine can be smeared as " anti-Semites " by a ZIONIST Jew dominated political and Academia establishment. The old fashioned " liberal " Democrats - in contrast to today's WOKE WARRIOR Democrats - would defend the FREE SPEECH, FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization.
Contempt for FREE SPEECH was a big factor in the WOKE WARRIOR Democrats big time defeat in Election 2024.
How ironic ! With the Israeli genocide in Gaza , Palestine pricking the conscience of the world , the mainstream news media prefers to focus on perceived anti-Semitism always equating anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism. Pampered and privileged rich Jewish kids on American college campuses are not in any " danger " the way Palestinian kids are in Gaza.
Socialist Tells Ben Shapiro: Workers Should Own the Means of Production
Naturally, the professional appointed THINKERS for the American capitalist class , the American plutocracy, would never agree with the scientific insights of Karl Marx on the basis of capitalist exploitation and oppression ; they would never even patiently study the Marxist labor theory of value ( like the Devil and holy water ! ).
On the contrary, try to find fairly well educated working class people who think the very idea of CAPITALISM is wonderful , so compatible with the American Constitution and the Bill of Rights ? I have never met a working class person who was immediately turned off by the IDEA and IDEAL of socialism .
Naturally a ruling class in any society thinks that a world in which THEY are on top, are secure and super -comfortable, is the best of all possible worlds .
Apart from Karl Marx and Das Kapital a fundamental principle of physics, indeed of the universe , put simply is : " You can't get something for nothing ! ".
In the irrational world of CAPITALISM the vast majority of common people who do all the work own virtually nothing while a tiny minority of the privileged class tied to Corporate America own virtually everything . That makes sense ? That is so very right , so very much the way of FREEDOM ?
Now and then History teaches that humble exploited and oppressed people rebel . And they do not listen to the shameless but well paid intellectual and academic apologists for the ONE PERCENT .

‘Russia Will Be In Big Trouble’: Trump’s First Shock To Putin On Day 1 I...
We democratic socialists - not the phony Democratic Socialists in bed with the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party- have said for years that the TWO PARTY SYSTEM is mostly fail safe for the agenda of the American plutocracy . Still, it was the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party which has promoted the HATE Russia New McCarthyism.
And we can count on the mainstream news media in " OUR democracy " to bless the agendas of the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in APARTHEID Israel and the warmonger, embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine .

Biden's letter to Trump revealed | LiveNOW from FOX
[ "As I take leave of this sacred office I wish you and your family all the best in the next four years. The American people – and people around the world – look to this house for steadiness in the inevitable storms of history, and my prayer is that in the coming years will be a time of prosperity, peace, and grace for our nation." May God bless you and guide you as He has blessed and guided our beloved country since our founding." ] Coming from a stinker personality of late life Joe Biden , the letter is very properly gracious . It does seem that the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party had no use for God or cared to mention God in any of their speeches or legislation . No coincidence that the obnoxious New Atheism cult is comfortably ensconced in the Democratic Party of WOKE & WAR ( not one voice for world peace among them ) .
Both ancient Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish theology warn against the sin of idolatry . And nation-state WORSHIP is definitely a form of idolatry. It makes moral sense not to call upon the God of the Old Testament, and especially of New Testament, to assist American imperialism together forever with Israeli Zionism in crimes against humanity.
The muzzled anti-war movement in " OUR democracy " should be pleased and encouraged by President Donald Trump's Inaugural pronouncement to revive respect for the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization. I suspect it is comparable to " Read my lips. No new taxes ! " . But we shall see .
Changes coming to the DOJ and FBI after Trump executive order
I see al this from the democratic socialist perspective in " OUR democracy " : That the FBI is on Trump's poop list has nothing to do with its history of terrorizing organized labor and its outspoken , often SOCIALIST minded, political and religious leaders. MAGA Trump's issue with the FBI has more to do with how they annoyed or infuriated his own ALL AMERICAN plutocrat agenda. In the midst now of Trump's administration RFK Jr. is openly accusing " DEEP STATE USA " of assassinating his brother President John F. Kennedy in 1963 and his father Robert F. Kennedy in 1968 . Also the American Left concluded long ago that " DEEP STATE " CIA and FBI are implicated in the assassinations of Black leaders Martin Luther King in 1968 and Malcolm X in 1965 ( the family of Malcolm X have initiated a lawsuit here ) .
Supposedly ,the Attorney General of the United is in charge of the FBI with its anti-terrorism agenda . Not so long ago " domestic terrorists " included PRO-LIFE Catholic Church activists . We can assume that loyal ( to the plutocracy ) FBI agents see no moral problem with " OUR democracy " assisting APARTHEID Israel with genocide in Gaza, Palestine. College students protesting this genocide must be officially smeared as " anti-Semites " .
Of course, for us real democratic socialists THE SOLUTION is not to return to power as soon as possible the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party ( possibly with " socialist " Bernie Sanders playing a greater role ) . We call for the formation of an American Labor Party - like the British Labor Party but less stuffy and compromised. And with no predisposition to mindless violence. Or to compromise with LIES & BRUTALITY .

We have a feckless WOKE WARRIOR Democratic governor in McKee but he cannot be expected to rise above the organized incompetence of his WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party and his own administration bureaucrats. Not only is the State of Rhode Island inept at sheltering a few hundred chronically homeless persons . Lately , I notice that severely mentally disturbed youngsters -by the busload - are being DUMPED into the Cranston Public Library. This has nothing to do with " compassion " in high minded officials of the state and the public library. There is clearly no " therapy " going on over here and very little supervision.
A " problem " with the state budget ? According to Wall St. news the rich in " OUR democracy " have been getting richer for years now . Post MAGA Trump Inauguration are we to believe that our beloved WOKE " liberal " Democrats here in Rhode Island were ever seriously opposed to "THE OLIGARCHY " ?
End of Faith: BRILLIANT Arguments Against RELIGION
In American public schools kids were brainwashed in my school days about the wickedness of atheist-communist Russia in contrast to God fearing and FREE capitalist America. The New Atheist cult would love to restore the " officially atheist " state minus the " communism " or " socialism ". They are ALL shills for CAPITALISM , AMERICAN IMPERIALISM and ISRAELI ZIONISM. And they make themselves part of the propaganda for nuclear World War III against POST-COMMUNIST Russia, and Islamic Iran in defense of Zionist APARTHEID Israel and " Greater Israel " Ukraine.
Quite apart from his dallying with petty-bourgeois atheism ( well known in the 19th century ) Christopher Hitchens ( the now dead drunk ) was infamous on the real Left for being an ex-Trotskyist supporter of American imperialism's invasion and occupation of Iraq . Also his born again Zionist zealotry .

As a long time independent democratic socialist I welcome this news for what it is worth : [ "
NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump on Monday ordered that no federal officer, employee or agent may unconstitutionally abridge the free speech of any American citizen, an early step toward his campaign promise to dismantle what he called government “censorship” of U.S. citizens.
The president’s executive order, issued just hours after he was sworn in to a second term, comes after Trump and his supporters have accused the federal government of pressuring social media companies to take down lawful posts over concerns around misinformation.
The order also instructs the attorney general, in consultation with other executive agency heads, to investigate how federal government actions over the four years of the Biden administration could have infringed on free speech and propose “remedial actions” based on the findings. " ]
For years I have had numerous posts REMOVED, not by orders of the US government, but by the authority of the owners and managers of social media - like You Tube, like Facebook. Unlike decades ago even the mainstream news media has on 24 hour duty a phalanx of censors ( how many CHRISTIANS among them ? ) of anti-war , anti-Zionism , American public opinion.
It seems that the commonplace opinions of working class CHRISTIANS in " Our democracy " routinely " violate " community standards against hate speech ". This from the very people who have no problem with Israeli genocide in Gaza, Palestine!
I do think that an investigation by Congress ( initiated by the much maligned " anti-Semitic " ( ? ) SQUAD ) is called for her. For decades now the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party has betrayed the FREE SPEECH, FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization . It has supervised an ideological WOKE reign of terror on devout Catholics, Protestants , and orthodox Jews .
I certainly do not see the legally persecuted, now US President Donald Trump, as more the " fascist " than the inner core of the Biden-Harris, 0bama , Schumer Democratic Party . For no mysterious reason MAGA rhetoric won the hearts of a deciding number of working class voters in Election 2024 . In general, the American working class does take the Bill of Rights seriously . Unlike the WOKE Democrats !

The 4 Horsemen of Religion (Fathers of New Atheism) Vs. BELIEVERS
What is left of " Marxist vanguard " parties -still godless - have al degenerated into bizarre personality cults toxic to ordinary working class people . They have gone nowhere in one hundred years . Browsing Isaac Asimov reference book short biographies of scientists , I am struck by the number of eventual suicides and unbalanced personalities. So if you see yourself as a future crusading for atheism professional scientist- like the Big Four - you are well advised to " get a life ! " Could the New Atheism road show be a sign of " The End of Science " instead of " The End of Faith " ?
ATHEISTS Schooling CHRISTIANS For 1 Hour (Perfect Debates)
Do the TV road show evangelists of the obnoxious New Atheism cult advocate -like the old Soviet Union - an " officially atheist " FREE WORLD ? Without ever moralizing about the EVIL of global capitalism, American imperialism , Old Europe colonialism, Israeli Zionism they would have their audience of mostly petty bourgeois WOKE " liberal " potential recruits for the unholy CAUSE consider becoming PROFESSIONAL atheists with their very own MAKE A BUCK road show .
The biggest mistake of the old Soviet Union was not SOCIALISM . It was making itself an " officially atheist " tyranny . Religious people did not fit into their CLASSLESS ( read Leon Trotsky's " The Revolution Betrayed " ) society.
But unlike the old Bolsheviks, most of them redeemed by a HUMANIST outlook, the celeb leaders of the New Atheism cult are shameless shills for Israeli Zionism, American imperialism , and global capitalism. These intellectual snobs will never persuade the masses - the BILLIONS of the world's Catholics , Protestants , orthodox Jews , Muslims...- to abandon their FAITH with which they make sense out of LIFE in general and make sense out of a seemingly infinite universe ( NOT from NOTHING ! )
They will never erect the likes of Notre Dame Cathedral over " relic " tracks of the God Particle ( or Son of the God Particle ) .
The people who are really serious about changing the world for the better should not be lacking in emotional intelligence ( like too many fanatics on the Left and on the Right ) . What is left of " Marxist vanguard " parties -still godless - have al degenerated into bizarre personality cults toxic to ordinary working class people . They have gone nowhere in one hundred years .
Browsing Isaac Asimov reference book short biographies of scientists , I am struck by the number of eventual suicides and unbalanced personalities. So if you see yourself as a future crusading for atheism professional scientist- like the Big Four - you are well advised to " get a life ! "
Could the New Atheism road show be a sign of " The End of Science " instead of " The End of Faith " ?

I suspect a youthful interest in any science topic begins with a sensual aesthetic appeal of the matter.

The pioneer Zionists of Israel like Golda Meir identified as "socialists " . But what went wrong ?
Were the pioneer Zionists like Golda Meir also socialists ?
[ "Yes, Golda Meir and many of the pioneer Zionists were considered socialists, particularly adhering to the ideology of "Labor Zionism," which is a socialist variant of Zionism that emphasized collective labor and social equality in building a Jewish state; this was a prominent belief among early Zionist settlers in Palestine, including those who came during the Second and Third Aliyahs.
Key points about this connection:
Labor Zionism:
Golda Meir was a strong advocate for Labor Zionism, which heavily influenced the early development of the state of Israel.
Kibbutzim:
Many Labor Zionists, including Meir, lived on kibbutzim, communal settlements based on shared labor and living.
Socialist ideals:
The core principles of Labor Zionism included economic equality, social justice, and collective ownership, aligning closely with socialist values. " ]

The IDEA of SOCIALISM is truly international and will never go away no matter how viciously it is persecuted . To be sure , the FIRST CHRISTIANS -virtually a SOCIALIST community -got something going .
Why Religious Superstition Doesn’t Belong in the Modern World
Does the political and economic IRRATIONALISM of global capitalism, American imperialism and Israeli Zionism belong in the modern world ? It does seem that the Fab Four Leaders of the New Atheism cult embrace all three. No problem with the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in APARTHEID Israel or the warmonger embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine ?
Way back in 1848 Karl Marx taught that capitalism was " holding back " the progress of civilization . What is RATIONAL about system based on the exploitation and oppression of millions ? A system daily defended by lies and brutality ? But belief in Jesus is the real problem ? Catholic Church belief in the Holy Eucharist is the root of all evil in the constipated brains of the New Atheist cult ! One can only politely suggest to the roadshow New Atheism stars : " Get a Life ! "
Why does it feel like the world is falling apart? | Brian Klaas
Science teaches that " falling apart " is a fundamental law of BEING , of the universe as a whole . But here on our endangered planet Earth rotten capitalism, American imperialism, and Israeli Zionism need some HUMAN assistance in " falling apart " naturally.
The ZIONIST Jew censorship -with amazing chutzpah-continues to censor American public opinion in " OUR democracy " .
Speaker Johnson says there will be ‘hell to pay’ if Hamas violates cease...
Trump's decidedly " fascist " tone here: " Hell to pay " for whom ? American imperialism together forever with Israeli Zionism in crimes against humanity . The WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had no problem funding the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu's genocide agenda in Gaza , Palestine . Also, no problem funding the agenda of warmonger embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine. Think BILLIONS of American tax payer dollars !
It does seem like the TWO PARTY SYSTEM in " OUR democracy " is very much captive to an out of control FOREIGN nation state - Zionist APARTHEID Israel . Any ZIONIST Jew lawyers, attached to the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party , interested in setting up ACLU offices in Gaza, Palestine and lecturing arrogant Israeli settlers on " Critical Race Theory " ?
Twice the US Congress gave a standing ovation to war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu . Is the rest of the world, less and less Israel friendly , morally obtuse ?
Can the mainstream news media in " OUR democracy " possibly rally a mostly working class CHRISTIAN country for nuclear World War III with Islamic Iran and POST-COMMUNIST Russia ? And with stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago ? WE THE PEOPLE - not our soon to be anointed Fuhrer, Donald Trump, just might have the last word over pathological belligerence .

Watch "Bernie Sanders says 'you can describe' Trump as a 'fascist'" on YouTube
Any politically literate reader knows that there is a big difference between a democratic socialist and a"socialist" Democrat like 80+ year old Bernie Sanders. The fact that he is taken seriously by quack Democratic Socialist Party members signifies a very bleak truth for the Left in general still oriented to the working class: Classic Marxism entered a new phase of an ideological Dark Age some 50 years ago when then young socialist Bernie had ties to the American Socialist Workers Party. And that party has evolved into a ZIONIST Israel supporting warped Jack Barnes(older than Bernie now?) personality cult sect.Of course the dumbest thing any existing Marxist quasi vanguard parties can do is ally themselves with the obnoxious God hating New Atheism. Which the WOKE Left allied to the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party has already done. The first phase of the ideological Dark Age began about ten years after the Russian Bolshevik Revolution.From Stalinism to Bernie Sanders in a century!

All men should NOT Marry
October 6, 2010 by Happy Bachelors
Reposted by Outcastsuperstar in HBF in the Best of Happy Bachelors. Great piece written by tiredofit from the Don’t Get Married Board.
All men should NOT Marry
Young men shouldn’t marry… because they have their talents, dreams, and future to utilize. Women will marry young men as a sort of “down payment”, a future retirement plan.
Old men shouldn’t marry… because of their assets and wealth to be taken, and older women resemble mummies. Young women marry old men for the money when he dies.
Poor men shouldn’t marry… because they will forever remain a wage slave, working, working, working, until the day he dies or retires in his sixties. If she divorces, he is enslaved to child support payments and often kicked out of his own house.
Rich men shouldn’t marry… because most of the women will be gold diggers. During the marriage, she will siphon off much assets and wealth her way. If a divorce comes, she will take off with a good chunk of the cash.
Men with dreams shouldn’t marry… because the wife will stomp on those dreams and say that your purpose on Earth is to please her. You should either be pleasing her or making money for her to spend. Dreams are for children, dear.
Men without dreams shouldn’t marry… because all the pleasures you take in life, be it fishing, hunting, gaming, motorcycling, or football, will be diminished greatly if not removed entirely. Your hobbies become ‘guilt trips’ while your wife’s hobbies become ‘quality time’.
Religious men shouldn’t marry… because marriage has nothing at all to do with being religious. Jesus didn’t marry. Monks don’t marry. Churches are not men’s friends. Every church allows tons of divorces including Catholic Churches (under the skyrocketing annulments).

Non-religious men shouldn’t marry… because you are getting married to the government. If you say, “That is absurd! Married to the government? Ho ho! I am married to my woman!” then watch how the State falls upon your head when a divorce comes. “But I will never become divorced!” Then you get to remain in the Government sanctioned sex program that is called “Marriage”. What! You don’t think it is a government program? Try having sex outside of marriage. You may get away with it for a while… until a child appears and you get slammed with child support. You could co-habitate, yes, but the state will declare you two married and then you become “institutionalized” into marriage. Threats to the government sex program, i.e. marriage, such as prostitution is attacked and removed at every point. And the reason why the “free sex” exists out there in the first place is for the women, not the men, which is why media and even men say that getting laid is ‘getting lucky’ as if women have bestowed a favor on the guy.
What does all this mean?
It means DO NOT MARRY. It is not because women have a self-interest in regards to marriage. It is because male interests in marriage have been legislated out of existence. In Church, male interests have been moralized out of existence (while her interests are extolled).
Culturally, you will always be seen as a loser. Despite the gain of fame or wealth, you still remain a loser… only a USEFUL loser. Society will re-configure itself so that women are right… always… and forever… If a law says women should go to jail for murder… well, the courts will say, “She was distressed. It could not have been her fault,” and behold how the woman goes free. If a woman is in an argument, society and everyone will shift so the woman, in question, is right. If religion contradicts women, those parts of the religion will be left out. If history contradicts women then history will be re-edited so women are right. If Nature contradicts women (STDs, cervical cancer, can’t have children when 40), it is declared a “social crisis” and scientists are set to task of “fixing” the problem.
Not marrying won’t make you free and happy. But it will keep you from the shackles. You may think being lonely and single is misery, but it is paradise compared to the TRUE MISERY of marriage.

How politically sobering for socialist activists that this talk was given way back in 1965! For me a new ideological Dark Age began some time in the 1970s before the 1980 " Reagan Revolution".It is now well over 50 years.

For the New Atheists Christian Zionism is preferable to Catholicism and to Christianity or religion in general.

Father Ray's 'Other' Corner: The Holy Eucharist and ‘the Argument from Ignorance’
His name was Albert Einstein.
[ 'I’ve read in a number of places that Einstein was fascinated by the Catholic Church’s teaching on the Blessed Sacrament. Many people are not aware of this. He was intrigued by the idea of a substance that you can’t see; a substance that has no shape or size or color. He once even asked a priest—a Fr. Charles McTague—to send him any books in German that McTague could find for him on the Holy Eucharist, because he wanted to learn more about it.
Einstein was not a Catholic, he was not a Christian, and he did not understand the Church’s teaching on the Holy Eucharist (at least not initially) '.
'But he never said, “I don’t understand it, so it can’t be true.” He was too smart to buy into that fallacy. His attitude was, “No, I don’t understand it, but it just might be true—so I’d better learn more about it.”
'My prayer today is that our attitude as Catholics will always be ', “No, I don’t fully understand it either (and I never will here on this earth); but Jesus Christ said it—he said that the Eucharist was his Body and Blood—and so I believe it, with all my heart.” ]

The Long, Slow Death of the Newspaper Editorial - Nieman Reports
[ " That approach, however, all but eliminates a newspaper’s own voice, and signals a retreat from its direct engagement in community affairs, a historic change. Newspaper editorials predate America itself. Colonial newspapers inveighed for and against rebellion; a pamphleteer named Thomas Paine galvanized the independence movement by beginning his lengthy series of editorials this way: “These are the times that try men’s souls.”
In a hyperpolarized environment, in which readers increasingly seek opinions that reinforce their biases, newspapers can still serve as authoritative, credible, and dispassionate voices, particularly on topics too small to attract the attention of cable news or partisan websites, says Yancey. “I have no special insight into presidential politics,” he said, “but I do know about state and local issues. How many places are there to get an informed perspective on a zoning issue?”
Or about city finances? Or a teachers’ strike? Or countless other community controversies? Rather than dictating what readers ought to think, as Gannett’s editors wrote in 2022, the best editorials parse complicated issues and provide what Busemeyer calls “a clear path through the thicket.”
Among the countless unsigned columns Busemeyer wrote for the Courant, one of the most significant, he said, was an editorial in 2018 urging a local congresswoman, Elizabeth Esty, to resign over her handling of allegations of sexual harassment by her chief of staff. Esty didn’t take the paper’s advice, but her decision not to seek reelection after three terms suggested the editorial had nonetheless resonated. That a local paper called for her resignation “really meant something,” Busemeyer said.
Busemeyer reflects on what’s lost as editorials disappear. “We lose the spirit that lurks behind every news story, the idea that something ought to be done about this,” he said.
Without a credible and informed watchdog, one with a long and deep investment in the community’s well-being, Busemeyer says, what’s being lost is an authoritative voice that can say, how dare you? " ]
