• The new anti-Semitism

  Fri Sep 29, 2006
  • To: ignoblus. What is the point in assorting anti-semitism in right- and left-wing antisemitism? How does that help us in fighting racism? There is no use in a theory that can't be applied obviously :)

  • Why does he connect anti-Semitism with left-ideologies? Would it be relevant if most of anti-semites were oriental? I belief anti-Semitism comes from misdirected anger. Connecting anti-Semitism with the left will just cause more misdirected anger.

• "I Have No Idea And Really Don't Care"

  • Al Gore's public image was destroyed in a similar way, he was (and is) regularly misquoted and because of it everyone thinks he's a liar and an asshole. Of course also as the Man Who Invented the Internet!

• Shanghai Preparing for 'Human Zoo'

  Thu May 11, 2006
  • Well, it gives you another perspective. But I agree it doesn't sound THAT interesting. Probably the reason they have it in a mall, it's just something you can look at in between shopping, instead of going for a special trip just to see the Human Zoo.

  • I prefer Fx, but this article was hardly mentioned other browsers than IE and Fx even though the title suggested it. Maybe you should change it or add review about the other browsers.

• Opinion Polls Represent Almost Nothing

  Fri Apr 21, 2006
  • I think polls give an idea of what people in general think. Public opinion changes really fast and polls are a good and quick way of measuring those changes.

• Who Is Jesus?

  Sun Apr 16, 2006
  • Miss Dev, I am not trying to debunk Jesus' teachings, especially not the way you are implying. That would be like ignoring the philosophy of Thus Spoke Zarathustra because Zarathustra didn't exist (at least not that one ;).

• Who Is Jesus?

  Sun Apr 16, 2006
  • Of the non-Christian commentators, very few are known to have written anything at all about Jesus or Christianity. No archival or archaeological evidence referring to him exists from the period when he is said to have lived, even though the writings of several contemporary authors has survived.

• Who Is Jesus?

  Sun Apr 16, 2006
  • The earliest historical account of his complete life is not a contemporary source. He is however mentioned in contemporary sources. This should not be confused. Even his own general Ptolemy wrote off him! In comparison, no apostle of Jesus wrote about him.
