His opinoins at 55:00 and on about what is a human being and that evolution is "mathematically impossible" is a hoot. No doubt he believed it, though. And he's kinda right that economics, institutions, etc. do take science as the base level understanding of the world. He's wrong, though, that you can't have different moral views of the world with or without a belief in the supernatural, let alone a Judeo-Christian god.So is Musk aligned against them?@bradstevens yes, and Bill Gates is the bogeyman in the few versions I’ve seen
Kinda has a Greek gods vibe to it with billionaires instead of dieties.
Of course, Musk is either protecting us or is a double agent. Ketamine is like that.
Good call on the Greek god analogy. Gates is def Cronus.
@bradstevens he’s wrong about as much as he’s right. And has a hint of that creepy there will be blood vibe and even look. None of which detracts from how moved we all should be by the circumstances of his death. It should be an inflection point. But it won’t. I cannot tell you how much glee I see in comments from the left
Yeah, the response has been saddening.@bradstevens he’s wrong about as much as he’s right. And has a hint of that creepy there will be blood vibe and even look.

We don't have anymore "come together" moments anymore, which sucks. I remember welling up with tears at the national response to 9/11 (and some international stuff, too). Don't see that anymore. Hell, if we couldn't come together as a country after Sandy Hook, I'm not sure what we could domestically agree on.

I underestimated Kirk. I primarily remember him advertising Relief Factor, knowing he was a conservative commentator who appealed to students. I never listened to him and if I ran across him, it was by happenstance.
In death he became bigger and more real. Has he helped bring students into the GOP? I think so. Overseas vigils and observances of his death are, well, astounding. I had no idea.
Then comes the hamfisted and idiotic comments from many on the left. Each one of those makes Kirk not only larger than he was in life, but assures that the movement he started will keep rolling along bigger than ever. In life he inspired millions. In death he inspires more.
@bradstevens are you serious? Why do you think they've allowed in 50+ million illegals the past several decades?
@bradstevens he's not wrong on morality. If we all get to create our own morality then there is no morality. It becomes a worthless concept and just a power struggle.
Not sure people can "create" their own morality without their own psychology--which is dependent upon their own biology and experiences--limiting or directing it.@bradstevens he's not wrong on morality.

There is no god, yet people think and talk in terms of morality and I think those thoughts and words affect their actions. So I disagree it's worthless or just a power struggle.
Not sure what this is in response to?@bradstevens are you serious? Why do you think they've allowed in 50+ million illegals the past several decades?
@bradstevens you don't know if there is or isn't a god. Also, to billions of people there is a God and they behave accordingly. Not to mention there actually could be a God and it's why you and I behave the way we do and why people are so concerned with morality.

Kirk espoused it and the neo-nazi in CO who killed two people on the day Kirk was killed believed it.

Empathy is a nice substitute if religion doesn’t do it for someone though.

I prefer sympathy after listening to Charlie. Even in death he is changing minds.

I clearly don't act the way I do based on a belief there is a God (there isn't). Because I don't believe it.@bradstevens you don't know if there is or isn't a god.
