My inbox has been the perch of more "ignore economics and quality issues" this week than I can shake a stick at. Their issues on the main appears to be as the ACLU telling me a Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. monument which shall quote him about learning to live together as brothers will annoy Conservatives, ANY non-Islamic religious, and needs to be pushed..."no matter risk"...as pure law and the Constitution MUST prevail here.

Um, really, all this kind of malarkey does is strongly infer ALL Muslims are Wahhabis ala bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Hamas, Hezbollah, some Indian Muslims, and folks like the governments of Iran and Pakistan (which was partitioned out of India in 1947 by Britain and the U.N.)...and as any cognitive psychology professor could tell you via iPod or Twitter, see, scurvy other religious (yes, even "bamboozled" or "epigenetically scared" Muslims)and Conservatives together with those "righteously" unemployed don't accept the "killer instinct" which is all Islam and gosh durn it, protected by free speech laws internationally. To a cognitive or radical behaviorist type psychologist, most usually the darlings of global government agencies, no "mind" actually exists, all things are reactions to stimulus without capacity to do other than told, and things like Islam draw people from all walks together where they have a "genetic predisposition" to fighting and such.

• Insofar as Dr. King, I cannot believe this man's other works ever said "thank God Almighty, free of any other walks of life, culture, faith, or thought other than my diktats!", nor "thank God Almighty, all folks in the USA regardless of walk will learn to appease their leaders and foreign leaders on a ja-mein-Fuehrer basis!". Indeed, Dr. King was all about equality and civil interface of people worldwide from who they are AS they are; and note otherwise that ACLU and radical/cognitive psychology types will otherwise tell you how even Baptist ministers believe in "superstition"...even though Dr. King was an ordained Baptist minister and often cited God as his belief in freedom and equality. Martin Luther King, Jr. is definitely worth more proper context in conjuring his memory and intoning his name.   

Now, looking at the facts the White House and Congress provide things like $290 BILLION each year to say Pakistan even when that STATE-version Islamic nation says "well, bin Laden and the pan-Islamic government Wahhabi sentiment are HARD to get rid of, gosh darn it", and the proposed first Imam at any WTC Mosque would be one who says its "terrorism" for a Wahhabi-philosophy Saddam Hussein to be removed even if to free Iraqi MUSLIMS as well, obviously we're stretching the truth beyond capacity when we believe radical/cognitive psychologists say we'll "buy peace for the masses and peace for everyday Muslims worldwide" if we do what such governments admiring such psychologists tell us...after all, THEY have degrees, lilliputians.

Amid all this "Crusaders!", "Islam is a cultural doohickey run by gangsters!", "peace through radical behaviorism and cognitive psychology recognizing people as talking monkeys needing relationship/cultural opportunity keepers!" malarkey, the truth about "religious freedom and doing right by our global brothers" as marketed seems to lie closer to its marketers simply wishing to eradicate any thoughts or participation in anything other than their own, with dumbed-down messages and electronic propaganda manipulation. After all, what makes one "Wahhabi" is simply ala Calvinism believing nothing is NOT pre-determined, with the added kick that consensus and analogy cannot be had or the Wahhabi will hurt you...say, don't radical/cognitive types, based on logical positivism and neopragmatists like Richard Rorty, also see "consensus" as 99 out of 100 scientists who find a pebble a pebble "in conspiracy against" the 1 who finds a pebble a steak dinner so "no consensus, ALL voices are equal and I get full implementation of MY will"? Hmmm, consensus and analogy coincidentally akin to no consensus (i.e., democracy) or analogies of Wahhabi Muslims....maybe great feudalists simply think alike and play roles in an elite club?

If you still believe culture-vultures vest themselves in pure science, take a look at "Embodiment And Cognitive Science", 2006, Cambridge Press, by Raymond W. Gibbs, Jr., professor of psychology at University of California Santa Cruz, who therein says world peace will be had when all are treated as the mere reactive beasts they are and freed of all vestiges of a "superstitious and religious past".

Two "facts" typical of this book: 1. "...the phrases "human body" and "one's body" introduce much philosophical confusion and should be avoided in discussion of personal identity." (p. 16; obviously no room for talk, even if the science may be far from perfect); 2. "Simple activation of the idea "closer means stronger" with the p-prism "connecting proximity to intensity" allows students to understand why it is hotter in the summer than in the winter, because the sun is closer to the earth in summer." (p.155; a prime example of "obey, I have a degree!", as at the time of writing his book, World Book 2005 edition, Vol. 6 at p.17 clearly states:"Earth's orbit is not a perfect circle. Earth is slightly closer to the sun in early January and farther away in July."...watch out folks, World Book might be conspiring against this "flawless" scientist).
