You live in Elbonia. Elbonia has no social welfare system to take care of you when you become too old or too sick to work. The only way for you to survive is to depend on your children.

Elbonia doesn't have a great health system either. So the chances of your children dying in infancy is quite high. To offset that risk, you increase your odds of having at least one or two children living to adulthood by having lots of kids.

Everyone else in Elbonia has the same idea, large families are the norm, the population grows and grows.

In an agrarian population, land is at a premium as your holding will either be divided among your rather large family, or your children will be forced to move to an urban centre to survive. Large numbers of poor people, living in a small area, (rural or urban, doesn't matter), is not the ideal foundation for stability or economic progress.

Then in comes Bill Gates with his Vaccination & Health Programs, and suddenly the infant mortality rate drops significantly. People still have large families, but less children die in childhood - the population explodes.

But here's the kicker: your kids don't need to have large families to support them in their old age, so the birth rate drops, as does the total population.

Vaccination doesn't lower population immediately, but it will help to do so within a generation or two.

The sgrt(2) is irrational - it's not an integer. Try again.

Best laugh I've had in a while. The only thing you're an expert in is removing money from the wallets of the gullible.

Does that make you a surgeon too?

Putting Penn & Teller in the same category as Oprah and Rush Limbaugh just shows how badly broken your bullshit detector is. (I don't know enough about David Rockefeller to say whether he falls into the "Penn & Teller truth camp" or the "Oprah full of shit camp".)

Considering that Oprah has hosted Jenny McCarthy and her anti-vax views, I'd say that Oprah is just as responsible as Andrew Wakefield for the death of any child that died as a result of the drop in the use of vaccines.

For kids that are too young to be vaccinated, herd immunity is an important factor in NOT being infected with whooping cough (pertussis), measles, or any of the other childhood diseases which vaccines prevent. The deaths of this children could have been prevented.

Andrew Wakefield, Jenny McCarthy et al, have blood on their hands.

I know a place that would suit you to the ground:

"Ankh-Morpork had dallied with many forms of government and had ended up with that form of democracy known as One Man, One Vote. The Patrician was the Man; he had the Vote."

I though the only place to get new movies was through The Pirate Bay.

Some would argue that the "godless" part makes less evil than other religions. The evil of scientology comes from it's abuse of it's members and it's fifth rate sci-fi "doctrine".

I know the story that you're referring to, but that doesn't make your comments any less crazy.

well I don't think trying to blow a part of the moon with explosives, when it's never been done before, so in space how much stronger is the force going to be...could it split a portion of the moon even split it in half, causing changes in our climate and tides, or even worse, too big an explosion could force it off its axis, and even make it speed downwards towards earth...these are the more pressing issues....who gave the US the right to blow the moon up anyways?

Can I have some of what you're taking? It's seems to be so much more potent than what the rest of the loony, crackpots are passing around these days.

I think you misunderstand censorship:

"the practice of officially examining books, movies, etc., and suppressing unacceptable parts.

In this case, it's the CoS that are trying to censor Wikipedia by editing articles to remove the parts they don't want the public to read.

As you said censorship on the Internet doesn't work, and Wikipedia just proved that by banning the censors - in this case the CoS.

Our kids want to play at being Communists? Or worse Canadians?

Mein Gott, who will think of the children?
