Remember when I said people are getting dumber? Well here is more proof. And I know what some of you are going to say, "But Jesse, this article says nothing about people getting dumber". Just take my word for it, people are getting dumber.

This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.

Virus that 'makes humans more stupid' discovered
Remember when I said people are getting dumber? Well here is more proof. And I know what some of you are going to say, "But Jesse, this article says nothing about people getting dumber". Just take my word for it, people are getting dumber."Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." ― C.S. Lewis, God in the Dock: Essays on Theology (Making of Modern Theology)Tags: None

Discovering the virus does not mean that it is something new. The virus may have been around for millennia. Being stupid is nothing new,Glendower: I can call spirits from the vasty deep.
Hotspur: Why, so can I, or so can any man;
But will they come when you do call for them? Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Part 1, Act III:
go with the flow the river knows . . .

I do not know, therefore everything is in pencil.

Maybe it's not merely laziness that part of population cannot compete for resources, and join ranks of have-nots.To say that crony capitalism is not true/free market capitalism, is like saying a grand slam is not true baseball, or like saying scoring a touchdown is not true American football ...Stefan Mykhaylo D

Now I understand what is happening to my mind as I grow older.Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

This explains my sister and father."When the Western world accepted Christianity, Caesar conquered; and the received text of Western theology was edited by his lawyers…. The brief Galilean vision of humility flickered throughout the ages, uncertainly…. But the deeper idolatry, of the fashioning of God in the image of the Egyptian, Persian, and Roman imperial rulers, was retained. The Church gave unto God the attributes which belonged exclusively to Caesar."
— Alfred North Whitehead

The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
