Is confusing Canadians with facts roughly equal to confusing Hyper Calvinists with facts?
i.e. not very sporting?
LOL.
IRRELEVANT = IRRELEVANT
SILLY = SILLY
STRAW DOGS = STRAW DOGS
UNSCIENTIFIC COUCHED IN STATISTICS = STILL UNSCIENTIFIC
Besides all that . . . the haughtiness stinks roughly like a fermenting skunk thrown down the outhouse hole. Not very attractive.
I'm not sure that helps explain the data or has much to do with the price of wheat in China.
= = = =
Ahhhhh, claiming superior knowledge about irrelevancy, straw dogs, smoke screens and the like is much more believable.
Huh, you're the one who posted the poll results. I'm only drawing inferences.
= = = =
As has been noted . . . crazy inferences can be drawn from all kinds of things--including from and by, with, using statistics.
Crazy irrelevant inferences seemingly motivated by haughtiness are not overly impressive.
It means justice at last for that criminal enterprise known as the Democrat Party.

INDEED.
The look on the face of her unroyal lowness; her hideous heinous--Bw*tch Shrillery Antoinette de Fosterizer de Marx de Machiavelli de Pol Pot de Stalin de Mao de Castro de Arafart de Chavez . . .
WHEN
EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW . . .
that look could be very interesting and sad, indeed.
Good insights, imho.
I suspect that the cream of the crop of 1.x billion in China . . . educated in the US's universities
will inreasingly give us a lot of competition in such departments . . .
Then . . . there's the cream of the crop from 1.x billion Indians . . .
Haughtiness is not wisdom.
I recall several years ago being read a letter/article about the current time being the end of the world and it turned out that it was written during the Civil War.
As you quote haven't a clue, I can only be ready.
That in and of itsel is interesting and begs the question.
= = = = =
Hogwash.
Most basic psych/statistics courses make a vivid note that correlation
is
NOT
causation.
Perhaps a refresher course would be beneficial.
That such a statistical artifact would hook anyone's haughty arrogance is . . . telling, perhaps, . . . but not about the issue of this era being the END TIMES, or not.
Evidently you've not collected statistics on the number of PhD's and MBA's amongst the homeless?
LOL.
Well, we got lots of time then as only a little over 1/3 of all Jews are back in Israel. In fact the U.S. has more Jews than Israel.

I'll have to recheck the book EPICENTER . . . but that is either
ALREADY NO LONGER TRUE or right on the soon-to-be-reached brink of NO LONGER BEING TRUE.
I'd have thought such an affinity for statistical pontifications would have revealed more awareness of that fact.
While 2,000 years "soon" is one of those mysteries I'm eager for God to clear up . . .
a million years off is nonsense.
THIS GENERATION [that sees Israel become a nation again in a day] shall not pass away until they see all these related prophecies come to pass . . .
seems, to me, to preclude a million years off.
I expect at least one person alive in 1948 to be alive in say 2050+
Not tomorrow, to be sure.
But I'd have thought such a statistically versed perspective would have readily seen that 46 or so years from now is considerably shorter than a million years.
From page 27 of EPICENTER:
"Consider the numbers. When Israel declared her independence on May 14, 1948, the country's population stood at only 806,000. Yet by the end of 2005, nearly 7 million people lived in Israel, 5.6 million of whom were Jewish. Thousands more arrive every year. In 2005 alone, some 19,000 Jews immigrated to Israel. In fact, togay more Jews live in the greater Tel Aviv area than in New York City, as many Jews live in Israel as in the United States, and it will not be long before more Jews live in Israel than Jews who do not."
footnoted:
"For 1948 data, see Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs "Independence DAy" press release, April 25 2004. For current data, see Israel Central Bureau of Statistics press, "The Population of Israel Has Reached About 7 Million," October 2, 2005 (actual number 6,955,000). For future projections, see analysis by the Jewish Policy Planning Institute, cited by Amiram Barkat, "Greater TA REplaces NY As World's Largest Jewish City," Haaretz, January 17,2006."
Perhaps updating one's PDA or XCel spreadsheet would be in order.
It must have been the pheromones, but I didn't hit abuse. So far he was fairly mild.
LOL -- oh it's a he? That's even worse...lol.
While there is a factual correlation between income disparities and level of education, you are standing upon very shaky ground. There is a much higher correlation between income disparities and overall spirituality - due to the perception of personal safety, which is born of accumulated wealth. People who live fundamentally insulated from personal difficulty are prone to thinking themselves above it all, and exempt from potential disasters.
Moreover, the racially and ethnically downtrodden are more prone to noticing very slight changes in their environment - which might signal impending danger. Consider the instance of animals living in the wild, seldom are the surprised by: Earthquakes, Mudslides, Flash Floods, Forrest Fires, or other Natural Disasters. That is because they must live merely by their intuition and wits. Whereas, humans die all the time in these very same events, since they wait far too long to respond - believing that they are so much more intelligent.
More importantly, the scriptures predicted that: “In The Last Days mockers would come...” just as they predicted: “Knowledge would greatly increase,” “Two World Wars,” “The return of Israel to its ancestral homeland,” “Two Rumored Wars,” “A Worldwide Financial/Currency Collapse,” “International calls for Peace and Safety,” “The rise of a One World Government,” “Renewed religious persecutions,” and “Sudden destruction for that New World Order shortly after its factual inception.”
So far, it seems to be right on track. Perhaps, an educated man - such as yourself - might look it up? Mathew 24 and Revelation 6 will be helpful.
