Ross Douthat can't seem to grasp the idea that the idea of a universe controlled according to the whims of an all-powerful god is absolute chaos, the opposite of the order and predictability observed by science. Ross Douthat's demand that EVERYONE be religious is full of sloppy thinking.

Ross Douthat argues that 1) People should believe in religion because fairies & genies & demons are literally real 2) Religion is all about a well-ordered universe of unbroken rules You can't have it both ways, Ross Douthat. www.stopchristiannationalism.com/douthat/supe...

Ross Douthat says that reasonable people believe in ghosts and demons, fairies and magic spells, psychic powers and angels. Ross Douthat is off his rocker.

Ross Douthat, in his book Believe, argues that it's rational to belong to a church because ghosts really do haunt people and genies are real, and demons will get you if you don't go to church. Why does anyone take Ross Douthat seriously? www.stopchristiannationalism.com/douthat/beli...

With gas prices hitting an all time high, consumers are feeling the burn at the pump. But some commuters in Idaho are finding a cheaper, healthier way out. From saving money to skipping traffic jams, it seems the bicycle is becoming the ultimate urban escape from rising fuel costs.

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

EFT Tapping is a MANIFESTATION of mental illness, not a treatment for it. Obsessively tapping your face and muttering is not a reliable pathway to mental health. Buyer beware: Emotional Freedom "Therapy" is a New Age gimmick, not a science-based practice.

EFT Tapping is snake oil. You don’t create mental health and happiness by obsessively tapping your face. So-called Emotional Freedom Therapy is just a rehashed kind of faith healing. Don’t fall for the gimmick. Say no to EFT Tapping scammers.
