I downloaded El Capitan to my Mac Mini today. Just one problem I had. I used to be able use the F4 key on my Logitech keyboard to see my widgets on Dashboard but that wouldn't work. I talked to Apple online and they walked me through how to fix it. Now everything is perfect. I like the Mission Control key F3 thing. El Capitan: Safari loads superfast.

"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

I wrote a comment at Seeking Alpha about Kinder Morgan.
The KMI management has a long history of keeping their promises and being honest about everything. They have repeatedly said the dividend will be increased 10% every year for at least the next 5 years. The worst case scenario I can imagine is instead of a 10% increase every year the annual dividend yield stays the same, stuck at over 7%. I could live with that. It seems to me buying now is a no-brainer.

"I believe in evolution but I m not sure if there is God or not.,..ur opinion?"
Nobody "believes" in evolution because is a basic scientific fact. Facts are not beliefs. I accept the established truth of evolution. I don't "believe" in it. The word "belief'" is for moronic religious fantasies.
Not sure about the magic god fairy? I can explain why it's easy to be 100% certain god fairies are not real with just 9 words:
Magic is not real therefore magical beings are impossible.
Period. There is nothing more to say about it. Same thing for the Easter Bunny and every other ridiculous childish magical fantasy ever invented.

When a god-soaked retards invoke their magic god fairy of the gaps these four quotes are useful.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.
-- Charles Darwin
If the history of science teaches us anything, it is that what conquers our ignorance is research, not giving up and attributing our ignorance to the miraculous work of a creator.
-- Jerry Coyne
Science is a philosophy of discovery, intelligent design is a philosophy of ignorance.
-- Neil deGrasse Tyson
"To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today."
-- Isaac Asimov
Scientists understand in great detail how new species develop and they have good ideas for how the first simple living cells got a foothold on Earth. They know how solars systems are born, and they understand how the universe began. Your god of the gaps has run out of hiding places.
You can look any of this stuff up if you're interested. Google is your friend.

Lots of god-soaked fucking idiots at the Wall Street Journal.
"your faith"
Reality does not require faith.
"that could only be divinely explained"
Translation: The Magic Man did it.
The god soaked have several code words for magic, but everyone knows they believe in magic. And no matter what they call magic, it's still magic. Magic might have seemed to be a good idea in the Dark Ages, but not here in the 21st century.
Reality is a wonderful thing. Reality is much more interesting than religious fantasies, and reality has the advantage of being real.
An interesting thing about the god-soaked. They can't exist without their magical heaven even though this fantasy is ridiculous childish cowardly wishful-thinking. The Islamic State terrorists have the exact same problem, a cowardly fear of reality.
One more thing about the god-soaked. They know an educated adult would never buy their nonsense. That's why they only try to brainwash children. Without this child abuse all religions would have gone extinct a long time ago.

What I wrote at the Wall Street Journal about Christian scum trying to destroy the Republican Party.
"Only 41% of Americans support cutting off taxpayer money to Planned Parenthood, and 51% oppose it."
I'm not surprised 51% oppose it. Most voters (people who are not Christian extremists) don't care about these things.
This is another example of social conservatives trying to destroy the Republican Party. Everyone's goal should be to prevent another 8 years of government infested with liberals. Let's focus on the economy and foreign policy instead of complaining about things that can only help us lose the 2016 election.
And Mr. Rove is right as usual. Forcing another government shut down is insane.
“Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.”
-- Barry M. Goldwater
I wrote this to answer a question about creationist scum.
"To all Christians saying that evolution can be reconciled with faith - great."
The problem is those Christians are idiots. For example the Magic Jeebus Man was most certainly a creationist. The Christians who accept the scientific truth of evolution are admitting their dead Jeebus was an uneducated moron.
Also, Christians don't really accept evolution. They pollute evolution when they invoke their god fairy to invent or use or guide evolution. That's bullshit. Biology does not require a magical fairy. Reality does not require magic.
The most recent Gallup poll shows that only 19% of Americans accept evolution as a completely natural process. In other words a magic god fairy had absolutely nothing to do with it. Compare that to the virtually 100% of biologists who accept evolution as a natural process. This shows that the god-soaked are fucking idiots.
The creationist science deniers. Their stupidity burns. It's impossible to be more retarded and more brain-dead fucking stupid than a creationist asshole.

Interesting fact: The pope's real name is Jorge Mario Bergoglio.
Another interesting fact: Instead of getting a real job Mr. Bergoglio decided to get in the religion business. The religion business can be very lucrative. Just promise cowards they can throw out reality and magically fly to a magical paradise after dropping dead. And when they're just worm food the cowards can't ask for their money back.

KASICH
Is John Kasich, Republican candidate for President in 2016, a science denier? I asked him at his website.
In the 21st century we need a pro-science president. During your 2010 run for Ohio governor you said both evolution and creation science should be taught in classrooms. My question is do you still think time should be wasted in science classrooms talking about religious ideas like creationism? Also, do you seriously think a competent biology teacher would agree to teach a magical fantasy in his or her biology classroom?
I am betting my question eventually gets asked in one of the debates.
I am by the way a fiscal conservative and you are on a short list of candidates I would vote for. I like your ideas about the economy and foreign policy. But if the Republican candidate is a science denier, I would have to vote for the Democrat and I hope I don't have to do that.
I used my junk mail email address: eric2x3@yahoo.com
The question from a retard trying to defend his magic fairy fantasy: How did something come from nothing? Somebody with internet name "faithless" wrote a very good answer.
There was never a time of nothing.
In physics, the word nothing is not used in any technical sense. A region of space is called a vacuum if it does not contain any matter, though it can contain physical fields. In fact, it is practically impossible to construct a region of space that contains no matter or fields, since gravity cannot be blocked and all objects at a non-zero temperature radiate electromagnetically. However, even if such a region existed, it could still not be referred to as "nothing", since it has properties and a measurable existence as part of the quantum-mechanical vacuum. Where there is supposedly empty space there are constant quantum fluctuations with virtual particles continually popping into and out of existence.

I also wrote an answer:
What Faithless wrote.
Your problem is you're looking for a hiding place for your magic god fairy of the gaps. That has never worked before and it never will work. Your fairy fantasy is not necessary, not to mention ridiculous and childish. Grow up.
By the way scientists are called "scientists". They are usually atheists but their research has nothing to do with your moronic fantasies. Your question should be asked at the science section, but of course you're not really interested in learning anything. You just want to defend your cowardly fantasies.
By the way this is the most stupid fucking thing I ever read: "God is conscious, so it makes sense that he can transfer his consciousness into us"

My comment at a blog post called "Dr. Ben Carson – Evolution is Satan’s work? Not so fast."
Of course as you already know, just because science deniers think there's a debate about evolution, doesn't mean there's a debate. It only means the science deniers are just plain stupid. Biologists have accepted evolution as fact for more than a century.
It's true that some Christians accept the established truth of evolution but they are admitting their dead Jeebus (who was a creationist) was an uneducated moron. I suggest it would be impossible for an honest Christian to accept evolution and still belong to the Christian death cult. But these pro-science Christians are lying to themselves. They worship a dead human ape who didn't know anything about science.
Another problem is most Christians who accept evolution don't really accept it. Instead they pollute biology with their magic god fairy to magically invent, or magically use, or magically guide evolution. Biology doesn't require magic, but Christians stick magic in there anyway.
Only 19% of Idiot America accepts evolution as a totally natural process, compared to virtually 100% of biologists who accept evolution without magic.
I totally respect Mr. Carson but his ridiculous denial of the strongest and most important fact of science makes him unqualified to be president of the USA which is the job he wants. We don't need an anti-science president in the 21st century. Unfortunately the Republican Party is infested with millions of science deniers which is why it's often called the Stupid Party.
Atheist here, fiscal conservative, and a Republican who thinks Republican politicians are idiots.

Religious indoctrination aka child abuse - my comment at the Wall Street Journal.
"Last year, the archdiocese baptized almost 70,000 babies"
As with all religions children automatically belong to their parent's cult. It would be like babies becoming Republicans or Democrats as soon as they're born. It makes no sense. But if children were allowed to grow up and make their own decisions about religion all these cults would go extinct because an adult would never buy the nonsense. So they have to brainwash children never caring this is child abuse.
The brainwashing continues for centuries. It never ends until a victim realizes the brainwashers are insane.

On 9/19/2015 at the Wall Street Journal I explained why Mr. Kasich should be the next American president.
Biden will win the nomination. We need a candidate who can defeat him.
Mr. Kasich (the only candidate who actually looks like a president) has ideas both social conservatives and fiscal conservatives will like. He is intelligent and has common sense, he can win the independent voters, and we have to win Ohio.
I suggest before you throw him out the window, check his ISSUES website at https://johnkasich.com/issues/
The world is a hopeless mess. We have to nominate someone who has a brain. That's why I think Mr. Kasich is the only possible correct choice.

9/16/2015 Republican Debate, 3 hours, I watched the whole thing, what a waste of time, never again. My review of it here.
"And if substance didn’t win, it at least made a comeback."
A lot of very good "substance" from Jeb Bush last night. And Kasich was impressive. Carson won the prize for most civilized person there. Trump did a good job but did not win it. Nobody won it. Fiorina doesn't seem to like Trump for some reason. I think Jeb and Trump were having fun with each other.
Huckabee should have been in the little kids debate. He didn't belong with the adults. It would be so nice if the losers dropped out now. They just waste valuable time.
The "social conservative" stuff. The Republican Party would be better off without it if they want to win the election.

The famous 2015 fossil discovery. At a pro-science pro-religious-bullshit website I wrote about it.
The science deniers can’t agree. For them it’s either human or ape, nothing in between allowed. The fact that one group says human and the other group says ape shows that they don’t know what they’re talking about and they’re just making everything up. Atheist here who is fed up with religious extremists who disgrace the human race.
These creatures who had hands and feet like humans and could walk erect like humans lived near the cave. With their brain which was not much bigger than a chimpanzee’s brain they were able to figure out it would be a good idea to remove the dead bodies. In my opinion they threw the corpses down the cave without any ceremony. Just guessing of course. An interesting thing about science is every discovery means new questions have to be asked. That’s what makes scientific progress possible and it’s a good thing.
Fantastic time to be alive. Just this year we discovered mountains on Pluto and now this amazing discovery of one branch of the human family. One of many human-like creatures who went extinct. Only our species survived. Can these creatures be our ancestors? It’s another question that needs to be answered. I betting they’re not our ancestors but I can’t be certain about it.
Science is awesome. Religion is boring.

An atheist asked for some education about evolution.
"okay, so me and my family are having a discussion on evolution. I'm an athiest while they are Christians, and I believe that we are all distant relatives from apes. We evolved into humans. But my family is saying that Evolution hasn't been proven. Has it?"
DNA sequencing has repeatedly shown all life shares a common ancestor who lived 3.5 Billion years ago.
DNA sequencing can determine evolutionary relationships in extreme detail. For example we know chimpanzee apes are more closely related to human apes than they are to gorilla apes and orangutan apes. This is solid scientific fact.
We evolved from the same ancient ape ancestors the chimpanzees evolved from. We are not the pinnacle of evolution. There is no pinnacle. A fly has evolved just as much as a human ape, the fly just evolved to fill a different niche.
What many people don't realize is the human race is one of the Great Ape species, as are the species I listed above.
Evolution by natural selection is the strongest fact of science. No other fact has as much powerful evidence as evolution.
Also, never say "i believe". Those words are for god-soaked morons. I accept the massive evidence for evolution. I don't "believe" these things. Facts are not beliefs. Facts do not require faith, unlike the moronic ridiculous fantasies of the Christian Death Cult.
Reality is nothing to debate. Reality is not an opinion. Evolution is reality.

They should let in humans only. Not Muslims.
A WSJ article about thousands of Muslim scum escaping violent Muslim theocracies and invading Europe. I wrote a comment for that article: "They should let in humans only. Not Muslims."
In response the WSJ deleted the comment (after it got 2 thumbs up) and then stopped letting me comment there.
In response I cancelled my WSJ account. I now have a subscription to the New York Times.
I let the WSJ know they lost a customer. Their response: Agree to our rules and we let you comment at our website. My response was FUCK YOU.
9/14/2015 called WSJ to cancel subscription. "We don't do refunds" so I will continue getting WSJ until 10/1/2015.
New York Times online available to me now. The NYT newspaper probably starts tomorrow 9/15/2015.
The next day I wrote this reply to the WSJ Censorship Man:
I wonder if you would have the same complaint if I wrote the same thing about the Islamic State. Another comment you people deleted had 28 thumbs up and nobody thought it was inappropriate. I cancelled my WSJ subcription this morning. My New York Times subscription started yesterday, and despite their liberal editorials it's a much better newspaper. Since you people "don't do refunds" I am stuck with getting the WSJ until October 1st, so I might as well be able to write comments until then because I'm paying for it. I will comply with your nitpicking rules. You can end the suspension if you want, I don't care.

The magic fairy loves beetles.
"The Creator would appear as endowed with a passion for stars, on the one hand, and for beetles on the other, for the simple reason that there are nearly 300,000 species of beetle known, and perhaps more, as compared with somewhat less than 9,000 species of birds and a little over 10,000 species of mammals. Beetles are actually more numerous than the species of any other insect order. That kind of thing is characteristic of nature."
-- J. B. S. Haldane, British geneticist and evolutionary biologist
He also said "God has an inordinate fondness for beetles."

10 years after the Dover trial Christian retards are still spreading lies about their moronic magical intelligent design creationism fantasy.
"Intelligent design may be held by persons of various non-biblical faiths, or even no faith."
What dishonest nonsense. Everyone knows "intelligent design" are code words for the "Magic Man". The problem with being dishonest is everyone knows you're a liar.
The code words "intelligent design" were invented for one reason and one reason only. It was a failed and pathetic attempt to make the Magic Man fantasy sound scientific to be able to stick it into science classrooms. At the 2005 Dover trial a federal judge called the "Intelligent Design" idiots "liars". It's not every day a federal judge would say that, but the constant lying in the trial was obvious, and it was all repeatedly shown to be dishonest.
I never met a Christian moron who wasn't a liar. The god-soaked have no moral values.

On September 11, 2015 an idiot tried to justify his faith in bullshit. I wrote a reply.
"Faith is an excuse to deny reality. Cowards have faith because reality makes them cry."
Gee, wrong answer again! Want to try for a third time?
You might have a better chance at the correct answer if you can rise above the bad experiences you seem to have had. Contrary to what some may think, nuns have no corner on "faith". I'm sorry that they wrongfully gave you that impression.
As to faith being an excuse to deny reality, that's absurd. True faith in God does not remove someone from reality. How could you remove someone from a dimension that faith says God created? What is reality? Some relative concept of yours? Do you mean to say that if something is merely not in the realm of your experience, it does not exist? That would imply that truth is dependent on you being omniscient, which I can faithfully say, I'm certain you are not. The fact is that truth is much, much more expansive than any one person can imagine, including even you.
Thanks for your comment Mr. Nessi.
Reality is a very simple concept. For example what happens when creatures (including humans) drop dead? They become worm food. They become a worthless piece of garage, equal to a dead cockroach. This is reality. I accept reality. I think reality is interesting. I thank goodness reality is real.
The people who have faith virtually always want to throw out the reality I just described. So they are willing to have faith in any ridiculous idea that makes them feel good, for example the idea that we have a magical soul that magically flies to a magical paradise where dead people have magical 2nd lives. Magic is not reality.
A magical heaven is not a harmless fantasy. For example exactly 14 years ago 3,000 Americans were murdered because religious people sacrificed their lives to fly airplanes into buildings because they thought they would have a magical 2nd life. That's the power of faith. I prefer reality.

At another website I wrote about religious brainwashing.
"Sorry to say, it seems to me creationists simply arent smart or educated enough to understand what evolution theory is, this problem is maybe bigger problem than any other thing."
This has obviously been the problem for a long time. The keyword is "uneducated". They know nothing about the science they don't like and they go out of their way to continue to know nothing.
Religious brainwashing (aka child abuse) sucked out all the curiosity that every child naturally has. The victims are taught to never wonder why. When the victims grow up that lack of curiosity is still a problem. They never wonder why every biologist in the world loves evolution.
Today we have the internet. Anyone can use Google and instantly get their questions answered in great detail. But the victims of religious brainwashing never ask questions. They think they know everything there is to know. They think the solution to every problem is god-did-it. The brainwashers (aka child abusers) have destroyed these children's brains. They belong in prison for it.
The difference between atheism and theism.
Atheism is an acceptance of reality.
Theism is for cowards who fear reality.

Evolution of eyes. A copy and paste job.
bgjettguitar wrote:
(Intelligent Design) Irreducible Complexity is an Intelligent Design challenge to naturalistic evolution’s explanation of the rise of complex life forms. -- • Naturalistic evolution teaches that new organisms do not suddenly arise, but come about gradually through beneficial mutations caused by natural selection. This process takes a very, very long time. Charles Darwin stated “If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down” (On the Origin of Species, Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1964, pg. 189).--- The human eye dismantles & utter breaks down Darwin's theory.
And after stating this, Darwin went on to offer a number of examples of attributes that would appear difficult to explain by successive, slight modifications and successfully explained them!
The evolution of the human eye is very well understood as is the evolution of eyes in general. Eyes have evolved in at least four different ways, leading to somewhat different results, and the various stages in each of these progressions is not only quite clear from the fossil record, but can be traced through genetic analysis. On top of that, many of the stages towards complex eyes, developing along various routes, can actually be seen in organsims living today. Despite this, ID theorists and Creationists continue to claim the evolution of the eye to be a problem. It isn't.

I suggest buy only the best dividend aristocrats, hold for life, reinvest the dividends for free, and watch the dividend income grow.

A quote about science deniers, aka fucking idiots.
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."
-- Isaac Asimov

Isaac Asimov,
My favorite quotes
At a WSJ article about the Catholic death cult - the best comment.
"I love all the comments, theists stumbling all over themselves trying to make sense of something that is nonsensical. Very entertaining for us who have unburdened ourselves of allowing mythology to run our lives. Religion is the problem. It's always the problem."

At another website I explained why science deniers are fucking idiots.
Page 52, comment #1039, explains one of the most famous and most powerful evidences for evolution, or to be more accurate, one of the most powerful evidences for our evolutionary relationship with chimpanzee apes.
So far zero response. Nothing from the science deniers. Nothing from anyone else.
In the several years since this discovery was made the science deniers have nothing but their inability to understand it, so they lie about it, never caring that biologists laugh at them.
In the scientific community there is zero debate about the obvious truth of this evidence. In fact there is zero debate about any of the basic facts of evolution. There are minor disagreements about some minor things, but these get sorted out when new evidence becomes available. There is no controversy about the established truth of evolution. The only people who deny it know nothing about the science they don't like.
Whenever I see something written by a science denier I can always tell immediately they don't know what they're talking about. They are making fools out of themselves even though they are too dense to realize this.
When the science deniers complain about basic facts of science like evolution the only thing they have is their love for censorship and their love for dishonesty. They copy and paste nonsense, never bothering to verify anything. When science deniers copy and paste nonsense, that makes them just as dishonest as the professoinal liars.
Always, 100% of the time, the science deniers are god-soaked. Perhaps if they were not infected with the Magic Man disease they would learn how to think. Unfortunately there is no cure for this disease. The science deniers will always deny scientific facts, never caring they have to throw out two centuries of scientific progress to deny these facts.

A Republican candidate for President is an evolution denier. What a surprise!
Somebody wrote this about Christian scum and it's all true.
Top Ten Signs You're a Fundamentalist Christian
10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.
9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.
8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.
7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!
6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.
5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.
4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."

3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.
2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.
1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.
