The ancient apostles were unique in their supernatural claims, compared to those made by religionists before or since, in that the apostles had multiple corroborating first-hand witnesses outside their ranks to whom the resurrected Christ showed Himself.

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

Someone created an LDS theology quiz that pairs you with the most similar LDS theologian based on your responses. I had to write my dad an apology email when I got 78% for Blake Ostler and only 75% for my own father. lds-theology-quiz.vercel.app

Signers of the new economist brief opposing Trump's Section 122 tariffs include: Daron Acemoglu - Nobel Prize Alan Blinder - fmr Vice Chair of Fed Douglas Elmendorf - former CBO Director Jason Furman - former CEA Chair Gita Gopinath - former chief economist of IMF Douglas Holtz-Eakin - former CBO Director Simon Johnson - Nobel Prize and former chief economist of IMF Greg Mankiw - former CEA Chair Robert Rogowsky - former director of USITC Laura Tyson - former CEA Chair Janet Yellen - former CEA Chair, Fed Chair, and Sec of Treasury Also multiple leading economists, including my friends Don Boudreaux, David Henderson, Sam Gregg and others. It is a bipartisan list of top experts in international trade, and it is an authoritative repudiation of the Trump Admin's attempts to redefine "balance of payments" to cover its tariff agenda.

Most Americans want price stability, a steady and growing economy, a government that respects civil liberties and civil rights, a functional congress that exercises is constitutional oversight of the executive branch, TSA lines that function normally, an ability to buy stuff from abroad without being slapped with a giant tax bill, and a culture that respects freedom of choice in our values and beliefs. We don't want wokeness and socialism shoved down our throat. We don't want the 1619 Project to replace our understanding of the American founding. Nor do we want a Postliberal Integralist theocracy that shirks the Declaration of Independence in favor of the blog musings of some reactionary kook from continental Europe. We don't want crackpot economic policies based on MMT, Greedflation, Marxism, economic nationalism, or some crazy LaRouche-infused 19th century tariff agenda. Nor do we want a president who ignores the courts, be it Biden or Trump. Nor do we want a congress that simply functions as an appendage of the White House.

Appealing to New Testament epistles as proof that the Early Church never strayed is wild. Literally every epistle was written to believers who were in various stages of rebellion—do we actually think they all just sat down and shut up after the apostles had been murdered? 💀

Exmo's and Anti's dropping the 'Joseph Smith buried his face in a hat with a rock to translate the Book of Mormon' like it's the kill shot 😂😂😂 Nah fam, we Mormons LOVE this fact! God spoke through a burning bush, healed with spit & mud, parted seas with a stick... so why NOT a farmboy with a seer stone in the dark getting pure revelation? It's a peak divine flex—He uses humble tools for massive miracles! Haters just be mad 'cause it's 'weird'? Good, because God's not boring!

Mormons hate this fact, but it's true. Joseph Smith put his face into a hat and claimed to have received divine revelation. Why would ANYBODY believe that to be true?

That value is subjective doesn't mean it is arbitrary or that it has no relationship to (objective) utility. It only means that the valuation, the particular ranking or urgency felt, is personal: we value things differently, contextually, and based on our own understanding.

As teaching & writing ass't to Worldly Philosophers author R Heilbroner, recommended by Michael, I DON'T recommend it. But as former econ prof & Barron's Econ columnist for 25 yrs, I HIGHLY recommend Sowell's 30+ books, w/two exceptions: books on Marxism & on charter schools.
Michael Thrower Chowdhury@BevansAdvocate

@Sovaignon @hayesy316 Good Economics is a good intro to what the literature currently says on a wide range of topic; Economics in Two Lessons is a good general intro; Worldly Philosophers is fun and introduces some of the old thinkers

Inasmuch as the crust was saturated with tasty, tasty grease, while today it is dry and flavorless, it behooves me to say that 1990s @pizzahut definitely out-pizzas the Hut. 😞

For 8 years to 2008, some cheered the President's growth in executive powers. For 8 years to 2016, others cheered the President's growth in executive powers. For 4 years to 2020, some cheered the President's growth in executive powers. For 4 years to 2024, others cheered the President's growth in executive powers. Tell me, why are you surprised about the immense amount of executive powers cumulated in the hand of a few?

@magattew “No one will really understand politics until they understand that politicians are not trying to solve our problems. They are trying to solve their own problems — of which getting elected and re‑elected are number one and number two. Whatever is number three is far behind.”

I can already tell that Millie Bobbie Brown is going to be one of those celebrities who gets way too much plastic surgery, and she's going to end up looking like Amanda Lepore.
