El Capitan - New operating system from Apple was available today and I downloaded it. All free of course. Just one minor problem was easily fixed.

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.

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.

Fucktard Luskin of the Christian Creationist Discovery Institute lies about everything to defend his childish magical creationism fantasy.

The religion of peace: "Muslim groups in Denmark complained, and the issue eventually led to protests around the world, including violent demonstrations and riots in some Muslim countries."

I found this perfect description of the religion industry: "Peddling ignorance and superstition to the gullible of the world."

Religion sells bullshit for cowards.

"I believe in evolution but I m not sure if there is God or not.,..ur opinion?"

"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.

Brain-dead fucking stupid Christian assholes are fucking terrorists.

"Pity you're doomed."
Code words that mean "My magic man will torture you."
This is what terrorists do. You disgrace your cult.
"We shall all pray for you."
Translation: "We shall all talk to ourselves for you."
Thank goodness I'm not infected with your disease. And thank goodness unlike terrorists like you, I have moral values.

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.

Jorge Mario Bergoglio - too lazy to get a real job.

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.

I must buy this book: "Faith vs. Fact: Why Science and Religion Are Incompatible" by Jerry Coyne

http://jerrycoyne.uchicago.edu/Faith-vs-Fact.html

http://www.amazon.com/Faith-Versus-Fact-Religion-Incompatible/product-reviews/0670026530/ref=cm_cr_pr_hist_5?ie=UTF8&filterBy=addOneStar&showViewpoints=0&sortBy=helpful&reviewerType=all_reviews&formatType=all_formats&filterByStar=five_star&pageNumber=1

Jerry Coyne, University of Chicago biologist, wrote about the Republican science deniers.

https://whyevolutionistrue.wordpress.com/2015/02/12/another-republican-politician-ducks-question-of-whether-he-accepts-evolution-making-a-full-slate-of-gop-candidates-who-wont-affirm-the-truth-of-evolution/

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" 

FFS grow up.

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.
