    You and I don't agree with that, but over 80% of the western world does. That includes quite a lot of left leaners as well as people with master's degrees and doctorate degrees.
    show your proof that 80% of the Western world doesn't think the world is 5,000 years old (especially the Western world outside of the US)

    There's a map out there from RealLifeLore (IIRC) that draws a vertical line at roughly 70º East (longitude) and states that approximately half of the world's population lives on either side of that vertical line [and 180º West (the middle of the Pacific ocean)].

    So, let's call the half of the world that lives to the West of that vertical line Western, and the other half are Eastern.

    Then you begin to look at the percentages of religious demographics to the West of that line, paired with the populations of the countries to the west of that line... the Abrahamic population, that believes in a unitary creator and the earth is only thousands of years old (Christianity/Islam/ arguably Judaism) is well over 80%, and closer to 90%. The teeny tiny populations of the countries with sizeable atheist/agnostic/eastern religion/nontheistic minority proportions, are dwarfed by the enormous Christian and Muslim countries which are heavily populated and have a well over 90% abrahamic observance rate (think most especially the Middle East, Africa and Latin America, even the US to some extent).

    The reason the world has not given up religion is because religious people simply procreate more, that's just how it's always been and still is. Liberal non-religious countries will always have a very small birth rate.

    Just because someone identifies as Christian doesn’t mean they believe the world is only 5,000 years old. The average Western Christian is someone who doesn’t even go to church once a month.

    “arguably Judaism”…75% of the Jewish population is secular and barely practices. We don’t believe the world is 5,000 years old and you know this.

    As far as Mudslimes yes they’re all terrible people and I always favored Trump’s travel ban.

    Meh Trump's travel ban never applied to Saudi Arabia who is our worst enemy in the middle east and makes the Ayatollah look progressive.

    So you're Jewish but you throw around the "K" word like it's candy?

    Agreed, and it was Saudi Arabia that spearheaded Al Qaeda and 9/11 and ISIS. Bin Laden himself was a proud Saudi. Just do your history research on the House of Saud and their radical brand of Islam in the early 20th century that completely destroyed the relatively peaceful Hashemite Muhammadan Arabian empire that controlled that territory for centuries.

    a New York Times review of public do ents and court filings from the United States and Brazil, as well as various attempts to verify claims that Mr. Santos, 34, made on the campaign trail, calls into question key parts of the résumé that he sold to voters.

    Citigroup and Goldman Sachs, the marquee Wall Street firms on Mr. Santos’s campaign biography, told The Times they had no record of his ever working there. Officials at Baruch College, which Mr. Santos has said he graduated from in 2010, could find no record of anyone matching his name and date of birth graduating that year.

    There was also little evidence that his animal rescue group, Friends of Pets United, was, as Mr. Santos claimed, a tax-exempt organization: The Internal Revenue Service could locate no record of a registered charity with that name.

    His financial disclosure forms suggest a life of some wealth. He lent his campaign more than $700,000 during the midterm election, has donated thousands of dollars to other candidates in the last two years and reported a $750,000 salary and over $1 million in dividends from his company, the Devolder Organization.

    Yet the firm, which has no public website or LinkedIn page, is something of a mystery. On a campaign website, Mr. Santos once described Devolder as his “family’s firm” that managed $80 million in assets. On his congressional financial disclosure, he described it as a capital introduction consulting company, a type of boutique firm that serves as a liaison between investment funds and deep-pocketed investors. But Mr. Santos’s disclosures did not reveal any clients, an omission three election law experts said could be problematic if such clients exist.

    And while Mr. Santos has described a family fortune in real estate, he has not disclosed, nor could The Times find, records of his properties.

    At the same time, new revelations uncovered by The Times — including the omission of key information on Mr. Santos’s personal financial disclosures, and criminal charges for check fraud in Brazil — have the potential to create ethical and possibly legal challenges once he takes office.

    Mr. Santos did not respond to repeated requests from The Times that he furnish either do ents or a résumé with dates that would help to substantiate the claims he made on the campaign trail. He also declined to be interviewed, and neither his lawyer nor Big Dog Strategies, a Republican-oriented political consulting group that handles crisis management, responded to a detailed list of questions.

    Fat JR Majewski similarly just made up about his past career, Kaptur was just competent enough to call it out.

    The DCCC should just centralize all of its oppo research given how many Republican grifters now run every year.

    The DCCC apparently had an 87 page oppo do ent on Santos and it didn't mention any of this.

    Sean Patrick Maloney has got to be the worst DCCC Chairman of my lifetime.

    It’s vital that proper red team candidates have a solid resume in lying and grifting.

    It’s really 8.5 out of 10 counts, because on one of the counts the judge didn’t dismiss he grossly narrowed the type of claim Lake was allowed to try and prove.

    i sincerely doubt you are actually following the proceedings and instead are just beep booping as usual, but its already been explained that if the printer (used to make duplicate ballots) was inadvertently set to "shrink to fit" setting, it would cause this to happen

    judge just overruled an objection for hearsay and says "if its hearsay, you can address it in cross examination"... bizarre rules in arizona if that's a proper ruling
