Where did the Founding Fathers say that? On them golden plates that Joseph Smith had or something? "The blessings of God"? What does that even mean? This country was founded on the ideas of the Enlightenment, which organized religion hated then and to a great extent still does.

"That THING" is Tranhumanism.
Nobody takes it seriously, which is bad, especially if we ever try to get ready for man-made viruses or other evil things like that.
Everyone thinks we are either fur-fags in disguise or trying to turn people into robots OR trying to do "The Island of Doctor Moroeu" on other people.

Oh transhumanism is fine, I thought we were talking about actually making people literally furry, which cool as it sounds, is just...weird I guess? Like semi-bestiality or something. :blink:

Transhumanism on the other hand I support full heartedly!

I think you mean affirmative action. They are not the same. Advocates of affirmative action will often use the two terms together, but this is at best sloppy usage and at worst a deliberate deception. Equal opportunity is a Constitutionally protected right and a beautiful thing, whereas affirmative action is a load of racist crap.

You think there's a difference? Tell that to the Navy.


The Navy? What are they doing?

They are "Equal Opportunity" employers under the government. All military is, as well as some other government agencies. I went to sign up and my recruiter wrote down Hispanic for my race. I asked him about what I considered a "mistake", and he told me he was trying to help me out with promotions down the way, because they take that into consideration and it looked like I "had some flair in me"(Filipino, Mexican, same difference... yup, totally... uh-huh...). Its apparently a "who-gets-what-income" hudda load of crock when a high ranking officers take note of minorities under their policy.

I could not disagree more with this one. Companies like Corrections Corporation of America already have a very strong profit motive to increase recidivism, not decrease it. More private prisons will turn prison into something even closer to the opposite of rehabilitation than it is now.

Affirmative Action, while a good thought at the time, is old a outdated. Why let a few people jump to the front of the line when someone more qualified can be looked over because they have a different skin color? The way I look at it, Affirmative Action is racist in that it tells people 'its okay to not have any skills, we feel sorry for you and will make room for you to fail anyway'.

*awaits the tsunami of people screaming "RACIST!"*

That is affirmative action. They are misusing the term "equal opportunity" for propaganda purposes because they don't care to defend their policies with honest language or sound logic.

It's like the old planters who used to talk about "civilizing the negro race" or whatever. It's just twisting words because they are trying to gloss over what they are really doing.

Sure, propaganda.

President Johnson's Executive Order 11246 required Federal contractors with 50 or more employees and contracts of $50,000 or more to implement affirmative action plans to increase the participation of minorities and women in the workplace if a workforce analysis demonstrates their underrepresentation. Underrepresentation is defined as there being fewer minorities and women than would be expected, given the statistics of the area from which the workforce is drawn. The statistics used are those minorities and women qualified to hold the positions available, not all minorities or women in a given geographical area (this from the Wiki article on the EO).

Right. Propaganda.

Actually, these few women in masculine occupations are by and large insignificant compared to men. Moreover cognitive psychology has confirmed natural intellectual differences between the sexes. In reality, the majority of women take up the liberal arts and the social sciences, or join the fashion industry. You can confirm that yourself. :)

A book by a random person with no background in cognitive psychology and another book written around a hundred years ago by someone with no background in anything resembling psychology (not that it matters, since virtually all psychological knowledge that existed at the time has long since been discarded on account of it being completely unrelated to reality) don't really help your assertions.


Your reasoning is ungrounded and you're actually just pushing political correctness.
