The frightening part is when one of these unreproducible studies is used to formulate government social services policies. Then we have people imprisoned, or their children taken from them, based on bad science.

I hear they switched IT providers to the "Permanent Assurance Company." AHOY!

Yes, it does say to only work on those things women want to work on. It's even in the summary:

if the content of the work itself is made more societally meaningful, women will enroll in droves.

Content == what you're working on. And if we're changing what we're working on to attract more women, it de facto means we're selectively recruiting women.

Change for the sake of change is fallacious.

Protip: you can't intake no sugar, then have a high insulin response, and end up with HIGH blood sugar.

Do you mean your question to be, "how is sucralose better than aspartame?"

Yes, it would have. The restored version would be assigned a new copyright under most circumstances.

The sales figures I saw for 2014 showed less than 15% of sales were actual truck-based (that is, body-on-frame) SUVs. The Ford F-150 is still the best selling vehicle-- a pickup, not an SUV. Misleading vividness-- when a Prius driver can't see around a Tahoe, that's all they bitch about. They'll quickly forget the guy in a Focus who cut him off.

Yeah, but it still has no wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.

I'd be curious to know how many in favor of mandatory vaccinations are pro-life... and the converse. Apparently, whatever happens to my baby is up to me.. until it's born. Then, the government takes over.

Well, I'm against both conscription and mandatory vaccinations, and for the same reason.

It's no different than creating a humongous unreasonable fire hazard in your backyard

No, that would be like me getting my hands on a sample of a pathogen and purposely releasing it in my neighborhood. Not being vaccinated is more like not digging a fire break around my house.

Since you appear to love straw men and slippery slopes, I'll point out that if the government can force you to vaccinate your children due to potential future harm to others, then they can order you to do just about anything in regards to raising them:

- What hobbies they have
- What toys they play with
- Who they associate with
- What clothes they wear
- What food they eat

So, basically, what anyone who has an open case with their state's child/family services department goes through right now. Except EVERY FAMILY will be under close scrutiny. Not just gun-lovin', Bible-bangin' nut cases like you detest. And since the state has royal immunity, I guess when stuff like this happens we can all just suck it up and deal.

THAT is why I oppose the authoritarian state.

If it was a non-government corporation, would you be more concerned? And it is a corporation, just one owned by the federal government.

Can we stop using the unscientific term "lost gospels"? Not only are many of these writings simply letters, and not accounts of the life and teachings of Jesus, they were never widely accepted and rarely cited by early Christian writers. They're apocrypha.
