I would say your posting is highly erratic and nonsensical, which is indicative of either being a bored troll on summer vacation or mentally unwell, possibly both.  (Neither are mutually exclusive options)

If your knee-jerk reaction to being told to have an enjoyable outdoors walk is to call people names, I suggest you might need to get off the internet for a while.

As for my forum standing. I am subject to the same rules you are, of which you have broken many and continue to do so.

Continued thoughts and prayers. RAmen.
Quit jerking-off

If my posts were nonsensical, then you would not be trolling me. You would ignore my discussion. Notice that two people engaged in the discussion, and about ten wanted to troll me, which you belong in; and hundreds, if not thousands, just ignored the discussion.

When it comes to the theist-atheist dichotomy, I am an atheist. I do not support the doctrine of the existence of a god or a supernatural dimension of human existence. I thought that was listed on my identity profile on each post. Yes, it is the "Religious Views" caption. I see you have used someone else's joke for your explanation of your religious views, so why the fuck do you care about anyone's actual beliefs? Do you believe that beliefs form the principles for the individual's formulations of reason?

The subject of this discussion reveals my beliefs about the reliability of the Three-part Separation Theory. And there is no doubt you have never encountered a reasoned criticism of it before, except from the theist religions. I can guarantee that I am the only American atheist who is not subject to the dogma.

The discussion has also revealed that I am the only atheist willing to contest the efficacy of the Dewey Decimal and Library of Congress classification systems.

And I am willing to contest the definitions of religion, belief, theism, and atheism.

What are your actual beliefs? You should be too afraid to discuss them, because they are faulty. Littered with dogma.

Pastafarian. We are dogma-free, gluten-free, and, as of last month, asbestos-free. We hope to be lead-free by 2027.

Having a sense of humor isn't trolling, IMHO.

Can we invent some kind of "time machine" type of technology that allows us to go back to a time in the recent past? Say, the 1960's, when everything in America was better and we didn't have a 3-branch system?

I went to Comicon last weekend and saw a Harley Quinn cosplayer. She was cute.

Maybe the 1760s.

I'm certain that that was the original intention of the creation of the secretaries of the security departments, but ultimately, why shouldn't anybody in the democracy be denied the opportunity to propose legislation?

That would be no different than the subsisting problem of competing interests of the congress representatives' horsetrading, and everything else that people despise about "politics" to promulgate legislation.

Seems easy enough, but as it is the partisanship permeates into the judiciary.

(July 2, 2025 at 12:31 pm)BrianSoddingBoru4 Wrote: Through a group of secure websites and servers, everyone over the age of 14 (‘universal’ suffrage was an exaggeration) gets to vote. Bills receiving a 2/3 majority will become law.
And that seems easy. I think if you were to continue thinking this through, maybe wasting some time trying to compose the directive systems, you would recognize that the suffrage is the legislature in a direct democracy.

You need to do a lot more work than that - devise a charter system. You need to learn how to compose the directive systems that create the security department entities and the judiciary, so it can be set up for a ratification election before you get paid. And be prepared to be disappointed, because even if your charter system is sound, the people who have the credetial power are going to be jealous that you figured out how to do it.

1. Everybody in my democracy doesn’t get to propose legislation, because it’s my system and I said so.

2. Huge difference. The Legislature would be much more likely to create bills that the Great Unwashed would be more likely to vote for. It’s a self-correcting system.

3. Easily fixed. Increase the SC. Fifty justices would be about right.

4. How can a Legislature be ‘the suffrage’, when they aren’t allowed to vote for passage of bills?

5. No, I don’t have to do any of that.
