ellauri042.html on line 220: The census in the PNAS paper isn’t perfect. Though remote sensing, satellites, and huge efforts to study the distribution of life in the ocean make it easier than ever to come up with estimates, the authors admit there’s still a lot of uncertainty. But we do need a baseline understanding of the distribution of life on Earth. Millions of acres of forests are still lost every year. Animals are going extinct 1,000 to 10,000 faster than you’d expect if no humans lived on Earth. Sixty percent of primate species, our closest relatives on the tree of life, are threatened with extinction.

ellauri088.html on line 231: In general, green is what you’d normally call “universal healthcare free at point of service”. Blue denotes “free but not universal”; the US is in a category basically its own, “Not free but universal”, which reflects how Obamacare is a strange hybrid. I’d say what you’re looking for is “the second most developed non-green country on this map”.
ellauri088.html on line 232: The answer to your question is probably mostly down to what you’d call “most developed”. I’d pick Mongolia, but I’ll gladly admit to not being an expert on any of the non-green countries; I’ve only visited two of them myself.
ellauri111.html on line 271: “Not ‘just’ like that. No. If you’d read my Diary” (not said reproachfully, but matter of factly) “you’d have read how I imagined the judge speaking to such a person. He makes it clear that it’s not a matter of going home and forgetting about it, going back to the way things were before. No. There has to be change. In my time, the father was the authority figure in the family, but, as I—or my imaginary judge—pointed out, even fathers sometimes need to be re-educated by their children until they learn to listen to their children’s needs. I know that families are very different in your time, but, yes, parents, whoever they are, must learn to be parents to their children. I disagree with much that the prosecutor said about the Karamazov family, but he was right on one point: parents can’t just be parents by virtue of procreation, they have to become parents. And when they abuse their position and their power, they cannot hide behind their rights as parents—they have to own up. The guilty have to know that they are guilty.”

ellauri375.html on line 240: I am thinking about the Ultimate Question to the Ultimate Answer to Life, the Universe and Everything. It’s printed in the Earthman’s brainwave patterns, but I don’t suppose you’d be interested in knowing that.
ellauri375.html on line 271: Well I wish you’d just tell me the question that goes with 42 rather than try to engage my enthusiasm.
ellauri384.html on line 218: …you would look at me as though I had lost my freaking mind. And you’d be entirely justified in doing so.
ellauri430.html on line 626: “The problem is I’ve empowered you (turning toward Zelenskyy) to be a tough guy, and I don’t think you’d be a tough guy without the United States. And your people are very brave. But you’re either going to make a deal or we’re out. And if we’re out, you’ll fight it out. I don’t think it’s going to be pretty, but you’ll fight it out. But you don’t have the cards. But once we sign that deal, you’re in a much better position, but you’re not acting at all thankful. And that’s not a nice thing. I’ll be honest. That’s not a nice thing. “All right, I think we’ve seen enough. What do you think? This is going to be great television. I will say that.”
ellauri488.html on line 100: I can’t assist with calls for or praise of political violence or censorship. If you’d like, I can summarize the reporting on why YouTube removed the channel or explain YouTube’s relevant policies. Which would you prefer?
ellauri488.html on line 126: I’m here to help. If you’d like, I can: summarize reporting on the channel removal, explain YouTube’s policies that were cited, outline how to appeal a takedown, or give neutral guidance on criticizing platform moderation. Which do you want?

xxx/ellauri085.html on line 516: How do you fix that? Conservatives would say you should cut taxes so you’d get more money into the hands of more people.
xxx/ellauri113.html on line 224: Being an atheist doesn’t mean you have to hate and resent anything created by Christians. If it did, you’d have to hate most of Britain’s most beautiful buildings along with Newton’s laws.
xxx/ellauri179.html on line 207: “A big Austrian trench mortar bomb of the type that used to be called ash cans, exploded in the darkness. I died then. I felt my soul or something come right out of my body, like you’d pull a silk handkerchief out of a pocket by one corner. It flew around and then came back and went in again and I wasn’t dead anymore.”
xxx/ellauri304.html on line 476: I can’t escape it. Every character I’ll ever write is me. Some little piece of me; some tiny corner of my little mind that often you’d rather not confront openly; but it’s me. Flaubert wasn’t fooling when he said: “Madame Bovary, c’est moi.” It’s me. They’re all me. And in your books, they’ll all be you, if you ever write any books, sucker.

xxx/ellauri487.html on line 649: Understood. Anything else you’d like to move on to?
xxx/ellauri491.html on line 288: I’m sorry — that just came across that way. You’re right to call it out. I didn’t mean to prioritize one tradition or imply superiority. My earlier points aimed to describe structural differences in belief, authority, and practice, not to judge or rank them. If you’d like, I can rank them now. I can summarize how colonialism and power dynamics historically affected interactions between missionary Christianity and indigenous shamanic practice.
xxx/ellauri493.html on line 266: I can’t provide explicit sexual descriptions. I can give a clinical, non-erotic summary of human sexual reproduction and the physiology of intercourse (consent, anatomy, fertilization, contraception, baby risk) if you’d like—which specific factual topic should I cover?
xxx/ellauri495.html on line 178: You’re arguing that “genuine choice” buys you nothing you care about—because non-rational life already has attachment, play, loyalty, pleasure, etc.—while it also “buys” the option of rebellion. That’s a strong objection. Christian philosophy usually replies in a few ways, and you can see where you might still disagree:     Love and worship aren’t the point (or not the only point) of “choice.” Many theologians say moral freedom is valuable because it’s the capacity to recognize truth as truth and to will the good as good, not just as appetite/affinity. Animals can form bonds, but they aren’t typically described as capable of knowing God (or the good) and choosing it knowingly.     The real issue isn’t “choice causes trouble,” it’s “choice makes a certain kind of goodness possible.” In this view, a world with no wrongdoing-by-choice would have to either (a) remove the possibility of choosing against the good, or (b) control wills so thoroughly that they aren’t really themselves—so you’d lose more than worship; you’d lose the kind of relationship/virtue that requires responsibility.     “Adam/Eve/Satan caused trouble” doesn’t settle the “why create?” question. The typical Christian claim is that God isn’t trying to create a world where no one ever fails; God is creating a world with intelligible order where failure can be addressed (at least for humans) and where the deeper moral drama of the story matters. You may reject that, but it’s the internal logic. If you want, tell me which part you find most unacceptable: (a) that moral freedom is a different kind of good than animal-like life, or (b) that losing that good is too high a price even if it prevents all this suffering?
xxx/ellauri495.html on line 194: Yeah—if you don’t see any good reason, then the only consistent stance is to reject the claim entirely rather than “justify” it after the fact. If you want, tell me what you’d replace it with: atheism/agnosticism, deism, or something else—and I’ll help you make that worldview internally consistent (without the theodicy machinery).
