In what Post did I state any "objections to the actions of the current American Government" ? AGAIN : OP = Why is alcohol legal ? (in U.S.) ?? = The people responsible for deciding/making the laws relating to legality of alcohol (in U.S.) can have Alcohol delivered to their Offices for consumption while deciding/making those same laws.

OP = Why is alcohol legal ? ?? = The people responsible for deciding/making the laws relating to legality of alcohol can have Alcohol delivered to their Offices for consumption while deciding/making those same laws. !! = So, if you had Football, Basketball and Baseball Players responsible for deciding/making the laws relating to legality of Pro Sports,do you suppose those Players would make Pro Sports illegal?

I do not know whether she does or not I have not claimed she drinks

Too true, Phi for All. And like I said, for whatever reason, it appears that Alcohol just may be a "necessity" in that walk of life at least. from : https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/05/us-economy-foreign-policy-tatters-pelosi-s-new-capitol-caterer-delivers-booze-directly-office/ " Nancy Pelosi has a history of ridiculous statements and positions. Now, with the US economy and foreign policy falling apart, she’s making it easier for lawmakers to access liquor at the US Capitol. Now Nancy and her comrades don’t have far to go to get their drinks. The Daily Wire reports: Members of the House of Representatives may now order beer, wine, and spirits and have them delivered directly to their offices, a new development that could help lubricate those late-night budget negotiations. The perk is courtesy of Capitol Hill’s new caterer, hospitality services giant Sodexo, and was first reported by Fox News Channel’s Chad Pergram. 2) Wine and beer was often available at catered receptions on Capitol Hill. But now booze can go directly to a Member’s office. And, they can order in bulk. Fox is told that this can be paid with private money or a campaign funds.

Not quite sure that society already "dictates Alcohol as a social necessity in all walks of life", although if "Pelosi is {really?} opening a liquor store in the House where Members can buy alcohol with their taxpayer-funded MRAs." See : https://twitter.com/AustinScottGA08/status/1525215777032482816?ref_src=twsrc^tfw Then, it appears that it just may be a "necessity" in that walk of life at least. So? Note the Hours that the Alcohol is available for purchase.

Thanx, Green Plus+ again, Thanks

Can anyone cite any case where torture actually produced actionable intelligence that led to a positive result, ie child rescued from pedophile or bomb found before detontion? not from tv or movies! IF...any conspirators were to actually set a bomb to kill thousands of people, do you suppose that those same conspirators might have a FAIL SAFE of any kind? Say, possibly that in the event that one of them might be caught, they have a ready response in the event of TORTURE? like it may be that under duress, they give up a location that when acted upon, lets the other conspirators know that one of them has been captured, or it may be an address that when accessed automatically detonates that bomb? as far as the pedophile/s, it may be an address that is near the real address so as to let the other pedophile know that the authorities are closing in? what do you suppose will happen to any child after that? peterkin seems to be the only poster that has really contemplated the question and answered honestly

The paper was only 13 pages, real science examines all evidence in its entirety, right? and Objectively, right? From the introduction of : https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.02286.pdf "Long-term collaborative efforts, like the ITER fusion reactor [4], are nevertheless more often than not accompanied by continuous controversies concerning the ultimate effort to utility ratio, with a central reason being the rational to discount future rewards [5]. It is hence unlikely that explorative space missions taking centuries or even millennia to complete would ever survive the initial cost-to-benefit evaluation. The situation may however change for endeavors not designed for their usefulness in terms of science data or other return values. This will be the case, as we argue here, for Genesis missions aiming to establish an ecosphere of unicellular lifeforms on potentially habitable but hitherto barren exoplanets." Let me get this straight, the author, Claudius Gros, actually states that he sees the "Genesis missions" as "endeavors not designed for their usefulness in terms of science data or other return values" Your take is : "I read the essential bits that relay the guts of it and see it as our duty to seed sterile worlds.", right? Peterkin, dimreepr, Ken Fabian and others, including the author, Claudius Gros, have examined the evidence critically, objectively, in essence Scientifically and have concluded that the "Genesis missions" are "not designed for their usefulness in terms of science data or other return values", you claim" I also believe I have no baggage, other then science and the scientific method" , yet you Post this : "I read the essential bits that relay the guts of it and see it as our duty to seed sterile worlds.", right? Science, right? "no baggage, other then science and the scientific method" dimreepr seems to be onto something : "Then you're fooling yourself, we all labour under the baggage of 'our/individual/unique' life, sometimes it light enough that we don't notice we're lugging it around; strict adherence to a method of lugging it around, doesn't mean you're not lugging baggage..."

Science? I tried to spoon feed you an honest to goodness example of an actual real science experiment being carried out by real scientists for real scientific reasons. https://www.discovermagazine.com/planet-earth/is-space-a-bad-influence-on-good-bacteria An experiment to see if zero gravity and radiation has the same effect on beneficial bacteria as it does on harmful bacteria NASA made these cephalopods spacefaring, thus allowing real scientists to conduct this real experiment. https://www.sciof.fi/science-fiction-squid-in-space/ science? then you greater folk know all about this "Scientific Study Concludes Octopuses Could Have Come from Space" https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/scientific-study-concludes-octopuses-could-have-come-from-space/vi-AASf3VJ and of course you greater folk have already read this "Cause of Cambrian Explosion - Terrestrial or Cosmic?" https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0079610718300798

Nonsense, and as already mentioned previously and reproduced below, I have read those hypotheticals, as oppossed to scientific theories, which most reputable scientists reject. It is nonsense to suggest that octopuses who have had more then 300 million years of evolution will ever be space faring entities, and we have no evidence to suggest they are Alien, and which most reputable scientists reject. But et pet, I must now ignore you for reasons known by yourself and myself regarding past interactions elsewhere and your reputaion. Hope you understand. Thank you. "I read the essential bits that relay the guts of it and see it as our duty to seed sterile worlds." seriously? It may be that you need to practice real Science, and carefully read the entire Paper. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.02286.pdf You know, like actually look at the evidence, objectively Just maybe? and this is just pushing a STRAWMAN ? - "suggest(ing) that octopuses who have had more then 300 million years of evolution will ever be space faring entities". that is merely a poor attempt at erecting a STRAWMAN, that is not Science! it may be that you should try and practice some real science and look into the reality of "space faring cephalopods" maybe even check with NASA actually discuss science and possibly learn something or continue to be ignorant of real science, that is entirely up to you

What do you suppose it is "essentially about"? I actually read the ENTIRE PAPER seems the Authors consider the "Genesis missions" as "endeavors not designed for their usefulness in terms of science data or other return values." https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.02286.pdf you do realize that there are "spacefaring cephalopods", right? you know that there are Scientists that Theorize that "spacefaring cephalopods" may have arrived on Earth Hundreds of Millions or even Billions of years ago, right?

what is the paper about? have you read the paper? what do you want addressed about the paper? you could address what I posted :

after reading these Posts, anyone suppose it may be that Space Faring Cephlopods (Octopuses?) Panspermized the Earth? it may be that hundreds of milions or even billions of years ago Octopuses were a "Space Faring Species" that somehow gave "the old reverse panspermia a go" and the Earth got seeded it just may be could be maybe a theory
