Bets on the US election?
So far I have 30 ITF points bet with both KitKat16 and D34THBRINGER. Any more bets will have to be accepted before the exit polls come out and I'll gamble no more than a total of 120 ITF points, and no more than 30 per person.

Bets on the US election?
Don't have 90 mil but what about something a little nation like me can manage? As I said I'm happy to buy tech off you at 1.5m/100 tech for 6000 tech... I mean... that is nearly 2 years of tech deals xD Or... I can simply transfer my ITF points to you. (I should have about enough, by the time I graduate + get my EIEIO points transferred + do some more tech dealing. ) (I did laugh though. ) OMW... that would break ITF... let's do it. See how the staff react xD

I'll bet 90 mil that Trump wins. Anyone wanna call it? (You must have the ability to receive 9m aid packages and I will only send cash, though will accept tech at the standard 3m / 100 rate or a 1.5m / 100 tech if you want me to pay for it).

I think it was a touch gratuitous this week. That being said, we get a real sense of Negan as a character.

Fractal Generator (Endless Fun)
Various versions of Apophysis http://www.apophysis.org/ This is probably the most advanced: https://sourceforge.net/projects/apophysis7x/ Not sure if it can do 3D though... I've not done it for about 5 years.

Presidential Debates
Trump's supporters are probably more inclined to actually vote on the 8th though...

Presidential Debates
We asked her to moderate it which is why she checks it regularly. Encouraging people to discuss things they enjoy is very different from claiming you can just grab people because you're famous (if you or I did it we'd be looking at sexual assault charges at the least). At all: Personal attacks aginst other members of the community are not acceptable, attack candidates, attack parties, attack corporations, but do not hit at each other. I'm more than happy to start forcing post moderation if this thread gets personal.

If you were well supplied/prepared, would you assist those who chose not to prepare in the wake of a disaster?

The New Atheist Movement - what we are blabbering about
Faith is almost by definition a choice. I choose to have faith that when I throw a stone it will at some point return to earth. I do not always see it return, but I believe that it does. I believe in the same way people will interpret the things they observe in their life to either support or oppose that which they believe. As the concept of the "heart" is only a subset of consciousness I see no reason why people cannot choose whether or not to believe something, and with time, that may well impact their "heart". It is important to note that in many of the instances you've referred to these events were driven by many factors; land grabs, long existing societal norms, xenophobia, racism, resource acquisition, as well as differences in beliefs. To claim that the incidences of child abuse which occured within the Catholic church only occured because od religion is just so absurd I don't even kno how to begin. Child abuse has always and likely will always occur globally, it has become systemic within certain political, religious, and cultural establishments. The factor which links all of these is that you get some men and some women who are just fucked up and are into that kinda freaky shit. I only say this as you've referenced him, but Dawkins is no better moral example than anyone else. Dawkins can be incredibly rude towards people who don't share his view point and is deliberately divisive. Many of the "morals" which him and other atheists accept as obvious or natural have been as a result of the religious establishments which have ingrained them into society. From a purely biological perspective I should remove anyone who poses a threat to myself and my offspring and support those who increase their survival chances. From the perspective og biology, that'd be completely morally justified.
