I did not know about this until alerted by an email, but apparently Tasmania, which is fast becoming a part of China, is allowing China to use Hobart as a port for their icebreaker. Sure, give them the state and Australia’s share of Antarctica too (the Antarctic treaty comes up for renegotiation in 2040), since our hands are too soft and flabby to do anything much expect stuff our faces with cream puffs, while mouthing sweet nothings about diversity and Asianisation:

     Wow, only two port stops and $2.5 million dollars will be injected into the Tassy economy; talk about a cargo cult. The premier is falling over himself. Never mind that an American think tank, who think, unlike Australia’s political leaders, has warned that China is a threat to Australia’s Antarctic territory:

     Since the appointment of Brett Kavanaugh to the US Supreme Court, the US chattering class, especially Hollywood clowns, who somehow think that their political opinions matter, have gone even more crazy than usual, lamenting that the rule of law is dead. Yes, all that from a group of degenerates who subjected the judge’s 10 year old daughter to a political attack as well. Probably these ferals would get physical if they could:

     Good things are happening in America, shining a light on where we, in Australia, need to go, such as getting out of the UN. A first good step is to withdraw from the globalist, anti-Western, Human Rights Council:
  https://www.npr.org/2018/06/19/621435225/u-s-announces-its-withdrawal-from-u-n-s-human-rights-council?utm_campaign=storyshare&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social

“After more than a year of complaints and warnings — some subtle and others a little less so — the Trump administration has announced that the United States is withdrawing from the United Nations Human Rights Council. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley announced the decision in a joint statement Tuesday. "I want to make it crystal clear that this step is not a retreat from human rights commitments," Haley told the media. "On the contrary, we take this step because our commitment does not allow us to remain a part of a hypocritical and self-serving organization that makes a mockery of human rights." The move comes as little surprise from an administration that frequently has lambasted the 47-member body for a gamut of perceived failures — particularly the dubious rights records of many of its member countries.”

     Ah, China … the things this country gets up to on the road to domination of the known universe! Things like simply rewriting the Bible so that it fits better into its communist-bee hive capitalism worldview:
  https://www.christianpost.com/news/china-trying-to-rewrite-the-bible-force-churches-sing-communist-anthems-227664/

“The Chinese government is supervising a five-year plan to make Christianity more compatible with socialism in which there will be a "rewrite" of the Bible, a prominent religious freedom activist has told Congress. The Rev. Bob Fu, a former Chinese house church leader who immigrated to the United States in 1997 and founded the persecution watchdog organization China Aid, provided great detail during a House hearing Thursday about a plan enacted by leading state-sanctioned denominations in China to "Sincize" Christianity. As China's crackdown on religion has seen many house churches demolished and thousands of crosses removed from churches nationwide, Fu warned upfront that what is happening right now in China represents the highest degree of persecution for independent faith groups the country has seen in decades.

     This is one from the “how bad can it get” department. In the UK a father has been branded a “racist” for complaining about his stepdaughter being required at school to write about converting to Islam:

“A stepfather who slammed his 12-year-old's school for making her write a letter about 'converting to Islam' has been called a 'racist bigot' and is terrified of violent repercussions. Mark McLachlan, 43, complained to Kepier School in Houghton-le-Spring, Sunderland when he found the homework task in his stepdaughter's planner. He refused to let her finish the 'letter to my family about converting to Islam', claiming it was 'brainwashing' her about the religion and did not see what it would achieve. But since posting about it on social media he says he has received a lot of abuse. He told MailOnline: 'My wife and I are terrified of the repercussions. 'Any time anybody says anything negative about Islam they are torn to shreds. 'I've been called a racist and a bigot, but I'm just terrified for my children and for the way this country is going. 'In 50 years time I can see Britain becoming an Islamic state and my children and grandchildren are still going to be alive - I don't want them wearing a niqab.'

     Following numerous requests for more articles on mathematics and other fun stuff, to give our ageing brains light relief from the pains of racial suicide and civilisational collapse, I found this entertaining video which gives a seemingly plausible proof of a falsehood, that pi is equal to 2, and the square root of 2 is 2!

Hopefully one of the students will! (I joke.)

“Shrouded in mystery, a US-funded medical facility in Georgia could be a cover for a bioweapons lab used for disturbing experiments that banned in the US, a Georgian ex-security minister has claimed. Tbilisi denies the accusations. However, Igor Giorgadze, a former state security minister-turned opposition figure, says he recently obtained a trove of leaked documents which might expose some dark secrets at the facility. The lab, which was “established on the territory of a … former military base some 17 kilometers from Tbilisi” as part of a US-funded project back in 2004, “was never meant to be a medical center and had nothing in common with a hospital,”Giorgadze told RT. It was notably overseen by the US Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), a combat support agency of Pentagon which deals with weapons of mass destruction. Giorgadze points out that the facility has been the subject of rumors, and seemingly linked to mysterious incidents from the very beginning. Located in a Georgian village, it opened in 2011.

It all turned to dust because the guy showed guts and stood his ground, refusing to be intimidated.

     China has been hacking all of the Big Tech giants, and even the CIA, showing that Chinese cyber-warfare is in a class of its own:

“But in a game-changing report published Thursday morning, Bloomberg Businessweek exposed a sprawling multi-year investigation into China's infiltration of US corporate and defense infrastructure. Most notably, it confirmed that, in addition to efforts designed to sway US elections, China's intelligence community orchestrated a pervasive infiltration of servers used to power everything from MRI machines to the drones used by the CIA and army. They accomplished this using a tiny microchip no bigger than a grain of rice. BBG published the report just hours before Vice President Mike Pence was expected to "string together a narrative of Chinese aggression" during a speech at the Hudson Institute in Washington. According to excerpts leaked to the New York Times, his speech was expected to focus on examples of China's "aggressive moves against American warships, of predatory behavior against their neighbors, and of a sophisticated influence campaign to tilt the midterms and 2020 elections against President Trump". His speech is also expected to focus on how China leverages debt and its capital markets to force foreign governments to submit to its will (something that has happened in Bangladesh and the Czech Republic.

     Why settle for a good old nuclear war with Russia, when you can destroy the universe in a “look at me, mum” moment? Just what is wrong with the physicists, anyway; is it some sort of physiological or sexual inadequacy? Your guess is good as mine, but to test their hypotheses they are willing to risk all of our lives:

“Martin Rees, a well-respected British cosmologist, has a warning about particle accelerators. There is a small, but very real possibility of disaster.  Rees claims Earth could be crushed to the size of a soccer field by particle accelerators. The Large Hadron Collider, which is a particle accelerator, shoots particles at incredibly high speeds, smashes them together, and scientists observe the fallout. According to Science Alert, these high-speed collisions have helped us discover a lot of new particles, but according to Rees, these discoveries come with several risks to humanity. In a new book, called On The Future: Prospects for Humanity, he gives some pretty dire possible outcomes of this type of advancement in science.

“US Ambassador to NATO Kay Bailey Hutchison is a highly placed diplomat. Her words, whatever they may be, are official, which includes the ultimatums and threats that have become the language increasingly used by US diplomats to implement the policy of forceful persuasion or coercive diplomacy. Bellicose declarations are being used this way as a tool. On Oct. 2, the ambassador proved it again. According to her statement, Washington is ready to use force against Russia. Actually, she presented an ultimatum — Moscow must stop the development of a missile that the US believes to be in violation of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF Treaty). If not, the American military will destroy it before the weapon becomes operational. “At that point, we would be looking at the capability to take out a (Russian) missile that could hit any of our countries,” Hutchison stated at a news conference. "Counter measures (by the United States) would be to take out the missiles that are in development by Russia in violation of the treaty," she added. "They are on notice." This is nothing other than a direct warning of a preemptive strike.

To The Australian          It will be good for the nations of the West, and thus for humanity as a whole, if the Catholic Church engages in a serious and substantial revision of its "millennia-old doctrine" ("Catholic Church at the crossroads", 6-7/10) under Pope Francis, but this must not involve yielding to Chinese communism, socialist fantasies or "high-minded internationalism". Welcoming other Christians to share in communion at the Catholic mass, and becoming more flexible about the treatment of divorced and remarried Christians - these look like steps towards a more inclusivist religion; and just because certain basic theological propositions have been accepted for two thousand years does not mean they are necessarily in accordance with truth. Chris Kenny ("Come on PM, show us what you stand for") and Bernard Salt ("Act for the public good, and public goodwill will follow") both urge Australia to end the "disconnect between voters and the political class." A more generously and sensibly articulated public presentation of the Christian sacred tradition would make that so much easier.

     We did not cover the story, but a little while ago there was an academic paper published on rape culture in dogs. Basically, the line taken was to use the usual crazy feminist “men are all rapist” ideology, and apply it to dogs. Sure, there are epistemological and methodological problems about conceptualising doggy consent, but that did not stop the authors. Now it seems the paper, and others are fake, as far as anything is not fake in the world of the universities:
  https://www.wsj.com/articles/fake-news-comes-to-academia-1538520950

“The existence of a monthly journal focused on “feminist geography” is a sign of something gone awry in academia. The journal in question—Gender, Place & Culture—published a paper online in May whose author claimed to have spent a year observing canine sexual misconduct in Portland, Ore., parks. The author admits that “my own anthropocentric frame” makes it difficult to judge animal consent. Still, the paper claims dog parks are “petri dishes for canine ‘rape culture’ ” and issues “a call for awareness into the different ways dogs are treated on the basis of their gender and queering behaviors, and the chronic and perennial rape emergency dog parks pose to female dogs.”

     Brett Kavanaugh has been appointed to the US Supreme Court, and will probably be hearing cases before this article is published. But, it is still well worth while reviewing how the flawed testimony of an academic was used in an attempt to destroy a good man’s career and reputation. I reported over the past weeks,  on the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court appointment fiasco with Chris and Charles, dealing with the ladies issues, because in these politically correct times, we often need a woman to cut through the, what is the polite word for bs? … fiddle sticks.

     What we have now, in conclusion,  was a  complete lack of evidence presented by Dr Ford. The final nails in the coffin of credibility came with a  letter from an ex-boyfriend stating that she never mentioned the sexual assault to him, and another allegation, that  she was quite the party animal and liked to hook up with guys. All that from a former friend, D. C. McAllister, writer of Catwoman.  Meeeoww …

     Saying controversial and soften stupid things seems to be what academic philosophers do, as far as I can work out. No, they are not modern Socrates, willing to die for truth and justice. Why some even want certain people to die:

“KILLING newborn babies should be allowed if the mother wishes, Australian philosophers have argued in a prestigious journal. Their argument, that it is morally the same as abortion, has forced the British Medical Journal to defend its publication of their views. In an article that has sparked outrage around the world and elicited death threats, Monash and Melbourne University academics argue that a foetus and a newborn both lack a sense of life and aspiration. They argue this justifies "after-birth abortion" on the proviso it is painless as the baby is not missing out on a life it cannot contemplate. The doctors of philosophy argue in the BMJ publication Journal of Medical Ethics that one-third of infants with Down syndrome are not diagnosed in the womb, which means mothers of children with severe disabilities should have the chance to end a child's life after, as well as before, birth.

     Can molecules fast? I do not know, none have ever spoke to me about their inner feelings and emotions, if, according to panpsychism (the metaphysical position that mind is fundamental in reality), they have them:

     But, we do know that people fast, and it is damn good too:

     One of our many American friends thought that a brief article published at On Target on the question of Q and Qanon, missed the mark. That could well be so, because we do not know much about this topic here. Fortunately, our American correspondent has brought us up to speed with some informative articles for our readers.

“I read with disappointment the article I saw in the On Target discussing the subject of Q and Qanon.  Unfortunately it missed the mark. It read more like a rehash of one of the many Main Stream Media (MSM) accounts all following the 4am talking points issued by the  Deep State propaganda team, that are professionally crafted (pun intended) to deflect citizens from what is really happening. They should be worried because Q and Trump are an existential threat to the globalist agenda leading to WW3 and the destruction of Christian civilisation. I hope to provide you with useful  information that you will share with social credit patriots. 

     Does the Bible prohibit homosexuality? By that I mean, if you pick up the book and read various passages do you find an explicit condemnation of homosexual practices? Remember, this was a book written long ago by God (we believe), so it is possible that there could be a “slight” conflict between its contends and modern politically correct culture. Simply read chapter 18 of Leviticus, if you dare. Do it at night, under the bed, with a torch so no-one sees you, including spy cameras. Generally, the liberals agree that the Bible does condemn homosexuality and say, “well, too bad for the book, as gay practices are  correct and  good.” Ok, I will not discuss that,  suffering from intellectual cowardice. However, there is another approach to this debate, which rejects the common assumption here, that the Bible, especially Leviticus, does condemn homosexuality:
  https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/21/opinion/sunday/bible-prohibit-gay-sex.html?rref=collection%2Fsectioncollection%2Fopinion

     The reference is to a theological paper by Idan Dershowitz, “Revealing Nakedness and Concealing Homosexual Intercourse: Legal and Lexical Evolution in Leviticus 18,” Hebrew Bible and Ancient Israel, vol. 6, 2017, pp. 510-526. I managed to find a pre-print version on the net. The argument seems to be that some earlier document from which Leviticus was rewritten did approve of male-to-male sexual penetration. Don’t be offended for any primary school kid would have heard about that. The author discusses in detail the uses of the expression “uncover nakedness.” As well, various ancient Near Eastern texts are examined, which as I read it, basically went along the lines of Leviticus 18 as we know it, so wouldn’t that undermine the Harvard academic’s case? I could not find proof of the claim that the existing manuscript is a historical homophobic construction, which could mean that the author is wrong, or that I am simply out of my depth here. However, this guy is not, and he offers a refutation:

     Regarding the Brett Kavanaugh US Supreme Court election debacle, I have been following the line that the progressives have been taking, that whatever women posing as victims say, must be believe, re rape allegations. This is utterly wrong because there have been a number of false rape accusations exposed, the now classic being the Columbia University mattress girl saga. Here is an article summing this one up, just so you know that I got my facts right on that one, since my mental decline is in full swing now:

“In 2015 the mattress girl, Emma Sulkowicz, became a global celebrity by turning what was found to be a false rape allegation into performance art by carrying her mattress with her everywhere on campus. She was protesting against Columbia’s decision not to take action against a young German student, Paul Nungesser, whom she’d accused of choking and anally raping her. Columbia has now reached a confidential settlement with Nungesser following his lawsuit claiming the university supported “an outrageous display of harassment and defamation” by allowing Sulkowicz for three years to use her mattress to hold campus protests where people openly called him a rapist. Sulkowicz was given academic credit for the performance as part of her visual arts major and was allowed to carry the mattress in her graduation ceremony.
