[quote=Zeitgeist]zk,
You have your weltanschauung and I have mine. I do not want to argue with you because it is a waste of time or to quote Heinlein: “Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.”

Well, Zeitgeist, if you want to say I have a simplistic world view, and if you want to compare my ability to debate with that of a pig to sing, you certainly have that right. But if you can back neither of those points with any evidence, then it says a lot more about you than it does about me.

If you don’t want to read my posts why not just ignore me and look for posts that are more aligned with who you are.

What gives you the idea that I don’t want to read your posts? No, I enjoy debating those with whom I disagree. That should be obvious. If I’ve given any indication that I don’t want to debate, by all means point it out. I’m pretty sure you’ll come up empty handed. Yet again.
[quote=Zeitgeist]By the way, “The man who brought Ebola to the United States from West Africa 18 days ago has died in Dallas. Thomas Eric Duncan succumbed to the virus at 7.51am today at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital. His fiancée Louise Troh spoke out in anger shortly after his death and called for a full review of his medical care. Reverend Jesse Jackson, who appeared in public with Duncan’s mother, raised the specter of legal action against the hospital as he contemned Duncan’s treatment.” http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2785245/Dallas-Ebola-patient-dies-Thomas-Eric-Duncan-succumbs-deadly-disease-bringing-America-Liberia.html#ixzz3FaSRpyIz%5B/quote%5D
Yeah, chances were he was going to die. He had ebola. And of course Jesse Jackson was there threatening legal action. There were lots of cameras. If you think any of that is relevant to my point that there won’t be a widespread outbreak, I think you’re wrong. But I’d love to hear your reasoning so that we can debate it.
