Burma has close to 48 million people in an area slightly smaller than
Texas (USA). As the population grows (mindlessly, like everywhere),
more trees are lost. Mangroves used to form a coastal buffer against
extreme storm surges, but 3/4ths of them have been cleared for shrimp
and rice farming since the 1920s. See http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/05/09/asia/mangrove.php

This is similar to what happened with hurricane Katrina. Too many
barrier wetlands have been filled in for development (a.k.a.
population growth), making them unable to absorb storm surges as they
naturally would. Florida also suffers from this condition. Record
storms reveal the idiocy of destroying nature in the name of "economic
growth."

A parallel reason we're seeing larger death tolls is that more people
are living in disaster-prone areas. Population growth creates a
vicious cycle of less buffer protection and more people at the mercy
of the elements.

Until it becomes politically correct to promote birth control vs.
"meeting the needs of a growing population," mindless growth will
continue until the 11th hour. Actually, the 11th hour has long been
upon us, but growthism wipes out all reason.

This is not the case in Myanmar (Burma) at all. These areas have been
habitated by people
since before Christ, and are not filled-in wetlands. Displacing these
people for safety reasons
would be like making Ethiopeans leave their country because of
possible famine, or the Swiss
leave the Alps because of possible avalanches.

What is upsetting to me, and probably not many others, is the anger
shown by other governments and people that we be allowed in to help.
They are an isolationist country and it's no ones business but theirs.
And that's the way they want it. Now, I'm hearing some bad mouth from us
and the U.N. on their leaders. It seems it doesn't matter what they
want, we know what is best for them.

It shouldn't matter how their country is run but to most it seems, we
would be justified going in there by force. For humanity reasons
naturally. How arrogant and demanding we have become.

No, that's the way their ruling generals want it. They, themselves, are

Islam broke world records of genocide, slavery, religiously sanctioned
rape, abuse of human rights, and prohibition of scientific inquiry. It
forbids Muslim emigration to the lands of the infidels because a
Muslim minority cannot enslave the infidel majority. Despite this
prohibition Muslims emigrate to the West, not as migrants, but as
conquerors. They live in sharia mini-states and expand these mini-
states by terrorizing infidel neighbors and driving them out. Arabic
proverb says "first comes Saturday, then Sunday." It means that Arabs
are going to exterminate Jews before they exterminate Christians. It
also means that Israel is the first line of defense against Islam.

“I have been made victorious with terror.” - Muhammad (according to
Sahih Bukhari)

Europe’s Muslim population is set to increase from around 13% today to
between 22% and 37% of the population by 2025. source:
http://news.scotsman.com/europeanunion/CIA-gives-grim-warning-on.2595505.jp

The average European couple now has fewer than 1.4 babies, compared to
3.6 babies born to the average Muslim immigrant couple in Europe.
Across Western Europe 16 to 20 percent of babies are being born into
Muslim families… By 2025, one-third of all European children will be
born to Muslims… In Italy, 95% of all rapists are Muslims. Eighty-five
percent of all murderers are Muslims… France will have a Muslim
majority in less than 25 years! Another telling statistic is that
although the Muslims are 12% of France's population, 70 percent of a
total of 60,775 prisoners in France are Muslims! All of France's urban
suburbs are being roamed by Muslim black African or Arabic gangs… A
very high proportion of French Muslims are in the underclass, that
segment of the population that relies not so much on education and
work as on welfare and predatory activities. In fact, over one
thousand Muslim neighborhoods are under monitoring throughout France.
Seven hundred of those Muslim neighborhoods are listed as "violent"
and nearly 400 hundred are listed as "very violent." Violence ranges
from rape (95% of rapists are Muslim), murder (85% of murderers are
Muslim), theft and looting of cars (58% committed by Muslims) and
street fighting to assault on teachers and civil servants… source:
http://www.masada2000.org/islam.html

"There does not exist an identifiable body of Muslims, substantive in
number or an outright majority, who could be described as "moderate"
by their repudiation of Muslim extremists. Violence has been an
integral part of Muslim history, irrespective of whether it is
sanctioned by Islam, and Muslims who unhesitatingly use violence to
advance their political ambitions have created a climate within their
faith culture that any Muslim who questions such practice is then
deemed apostate and subject to harm. Consequently, what might pass for
"moderate" Muslims, the large number of Muslims unaccounted for as to
what they think, in practical terms constitute a forest within which
extremists are incubated, nurtured, given ideological and material
support, and to which they return for sanctuary." - Salim Mansur

Lord Chamberlain has set the stage for Europe, we saw it in the time
leading up to WWII the Europeans sat on their *collective socialist ass*
and preached Love and peace while Hitler made them the FOOLS and now the
Islamics are doing the same thing....


Europeans for all their lofty rhetoric aren't very smart if they learned
nothing that was taught to them by Hitler.

So you justify a totalitarian military government treating a large
portion of their population, who are injured,
starving, and dying, inhumanely simply because 'it's their own
business' ? You have no compulsion to
provide aid to prevent widespread death by malnutrition and disease.
You would not have a problem
with Louisiana not providing relief to hurricane Katrina victims simpy
because it is a State issue, which in fact it was and not a Federal
one.

I'm not sure I understand your qualifying adjective. Birth control is
a necessary adjunct to death control. Having got the latter working
fairly well, it would be a shame to swamp all our efforts by trying to
have more people on the planet than its resources can handle. Not to
mention the fact that child mortality is greatest in countries with
little or no family planning service available.

What would you personally prefer if you had to start over. To live to
one- or two- years old, then die from a combination of malnutrition
and preventable childhood medical conditions, or to not be conceived
in the first place?

Far and away, the better choice is to live any amount of time in any

Irrespective of that, we need to better manage and control our resources

What I am saying is that we should not force our wants on others. The
aid is there if they want it. The help is there if they want it. But
that doesn't seem to be enough for pricks who love forcing others to see
it their way. When they don't, they will bad mouth them to the rest of
the world. The government structure there is irrelevant.

New Orleans victims had much they could have done themselves but chose
to sit there and let the nannies provide for them. The liberal way is to
provide everything and those people said ok which proves that government
is your enemy in these sorts of situations. Louisiana and other states
get benefit of federal moneys no matter who provides the relief.

According to your idea about any life is better than no life, a
fertile woman who fails to make any and every possible attempt to
become pregnant when ovulating is willfully acting against this
stricture. Setting the age of consent at a point two to four years
after a normal female begins to menstruate is also a willful act -

Give further clarification , please. In particular do you consider a
single-celled zygote formed by the merger of a human ovum with a human
spermatazooid to be a life. If not, how do you stand on the life or

I'm fairly confident that my humanitarian aid will NOT end as you
outline, although I presume that, generally speaking, a lot of it will.

So, hopefully we can agree here, the problem isn't due to climate
change/warming but rather to those in power.

I propose that we will solve a lot more of the worlds ills by through
'power control' than 'climate control'. Perhaps we should primarily
focus our energies on that problem...

The line of reasoning, at the time of my statement, was along the lines

Infanticide is virtually never appropriate.

Strictly speaking, I don't know when life actually starts. I don't
think that there is consensus in the medical community either. So, in
light of that, I'd err on the side of conservatism -- presume that an
embryo is life.

we will solve a lot more of the worlds ills through

In as much as ordinary people being rendered powerless to tackle the
world's ills, such as rampant autocracy, plutocracy, theocracy (with
their attendant nepotism) - hence being powerless in the face of
climate change, population growth, pandemics - yes, I agree with you.
The political system that just might deliver has been so vilified by
the establishment, that here in France the name has had to be changed.
We no longer speak of "Anarchism" but have it re-branded as
"participative democracy.

With only a handful of cells, how can you identify such life as
'human'? It is indistinguishable from the embryo of every other
vertebrate until stem cells form and get weaving. The lack of
consensus in the medical community originates in the disparate
cultural backgrounds of its members.

Such testing is destructive for at least one cell. At such an early
stage of development, loss of one cell would be disastrous - perhaps
lethal.

By the way, I found out that my contribution is to be used for basic
food, medical equipment, blankets, tarps, and drinking water. I'm
presuming that it will end up in the right hands.

Sure. So, given that, do you choose to err on the side conservatism? I do.

The conservative viewpoint would say that if there are no differences
discernible, there are no differences. Therefore treat human embryos
like any other animal embryo.

If they are indiscernible, the conservative viewpoint would be to treat
all embryos as human.

So an embryo removed from the uterus of a laboratory rat might be
human in the mind of a conservative?

No: "treat" and "might be" are two entirely different things.

I said "treat", I meant "treat". The viewpoint you proffered as
conservative is liberal. I've outlined the conservative viewpoint, and
stand behind it. Will you admit that your viewpoint is liberal, and
stand behind it, or play word games?

Dear Vendi,
I only had one single party of 5 as far as I can remember.
It's always by the dozen, normally. I am sorry that I couldn't
remember you. So, I read some more in your archive and I can
see that you are also Scott Nudds. I now do vaguely recall your
presence at that lousy party of 5 where you must have been the
one who creamed in his pants when I took my bra off and then
the other guys laughed at you and called you "Scuttle Nutts".
So, that was you Vendi, the old Scott Nudds? Isn't that something.
Either way, Vendi, I think I've made a wrong call on you. See, dear,
Short-dick/Quick-cumers like you are not best sellers in the adult
movie biz. I hope you'll understand that. Biz is biz. I'm sorry, dear.
With love,
