“The cult of the omnipotent state has millions of followers in the united States. Americans of today view their government in the same way as Christians view their God; they worship and adore the state and they render their lives and fortunes to it. Statists believe that their lives - their very being - are a privilege that the state has given to them. They believe that everything they do is - and should be - dependent on the consent of the government. Thus, statists support such devices as income taxation, licensing laws, regulations, passports, trade restrictions, and the like.” WayShouldBelieveStatesGovernmentTodayChristianLawGivenUnitedViewsMillionsUnited StatesSupportWorshipTradeFortunePrivilegeIncomeDependentDevicesFollowersRegulationConsentCultAdoreTaxationRestrictionIncome TaxPassportsOmnipotentLicensing Book:The tyranny of gun control Source: The tyranny of gun control

“There is a fundamental difference between the Jewish idea of creation and that of Islam. The creation according to Islam is not a unique act in a given time but a perpetual and constant event; and God supports and sustains all existence at every moment by His will and His thought. Outside His will, outside His thought, all is nothing, even the things which seem to us absolutely self-evident such as space and time. Allah alone wishes: the Universe exists; and all manifestations are as a witness of the Divine will.” IdeasSelfMomentsSeemsUniverseGivenWishDifferencesSpaceExistenceSupportEventsCreationDivineUniqueFundamentalsConstantIslamWitnessManifestationPerpetualEvidentTime And SpaceDivine Will Author:Aga Khan III

“The most unacknowledged spending expectation among women is the amount of time spent by single mothers caring for children, not only physically, but psychologically. It is my feeling that only a small percentage of a mother's time is normally compensated for by child support, given what a woman could make adding these hours to workforce hours. It is why women who have never been married and never had children earn so much more in the workplace than women who have had children.” ChildrenFeelingsMotherGivenHoursSupportAmountMarriedExpectationsCaringSpendingWorkplacePercentagesWorkforceTime SpentSingle MotherChild Care Author:Warren Farrell
“Would you render the same level of support to someone who hadn't conscientiously objected, but rather instead rolled a grenade under their line officer in order to neutralize the combat capacity of their unit?

“Have I ever remarked on how completely ridiculous it is to ask high school students to decide what they want to do with the rest of their lives and give them nearly no support in doing so? Support like, say, spending a day apiece watching twenty different jobs and then another week at their top three choices, with salary charts and projections and probabilities of graduating that subject given their test scores? The more so considering this is a central allocation question for the entire economy?” WantGivingDifferentSchoolJobsChoicesThreeAsksGivenSupportEconomyWeekSubjectsStudentsHigh SchoolTestsTwentiesSpendingRidiculousScoreGraduatesConsideringProbabilitySalaryProjectionDifferent JobsAllocationHigh School StudentsTest Scores Author:Eliezer Yudkowsky
“Our enemies are followers of a totalitarian ideology based on Islam, which tells them that Allah wishes to rule the world through them. Israel is a central front in this war.

I hope they never use drugs, but people make their own decisions. When they're old enough, they are going to have the chance to make their own decisions.
