Like the Commie Empire, US military shell, still strong, at the collapse.
Rule by and for the needs of those on top, reinforcing the strong rotten egg smell

The US often asks Western Europe to beef up it's military defenses. Here's how I look at this: you can choose to defend your country with military means against probable threats. You can alss choose to defend your country against the sea and mother nature. For the Netherlands, the latter was a bigger problem. While the US has a mighty army, several cities might be disappear from the map by the sea, not by a military attack, while the Netherlands a.k.a. Holland is protected for everything except a storm that would come once in 10,000 years. By contrast, New Orleans is protected to a level of flooding once in 30 years. Meaning, every 30 years a storm would come along that could flood the city. Protecting New Orleans, Texas, and Alabama is a matter of political will, priorities and money. The US army can't stop Ike coming ashore. Meanwhile: Dutch vessels and engineers are standing by, advicing the US army corps of engineers and building defenses... but.. not enough money and political will to beef up the coastal defenses.

Franko, comes a time when the silence must be established. Science is precise. Philosophy is a circle of educated personal opinion, leading nowhere. Sciences that begin and end in words generally prove to possess little value.

I have no need, as you define it. My need, my certitude, my conviction, has been met and established. The scientific principle incorporated into religion works for me, as it does for anyone who applies the rules for living the plan the Creator has designed.

Joy, peace and love are the produce. May your inquiring mind lead you to the light.

"You refuse to do what a scientist would do"
You are doing an illogicallity, appeal to authority.

"if the scientist is interested in helping to correct something out of order"
The old faith, not this time working, new hypothesis, to get the higher banana

"Edison did not deal with “black holes”, he asked “what if…”"
Desired the imagined banana, the light to keep people up at night, since he did not sleep a lot, tried various means, black holes not in his experimental toolbag, left the theory cleanup for future generations. Desire for a result, not ZombieSinFaithReligion inventor.

Carver, a Saint, in the hero meaning. The peanut butter, and other nuts, how good food, he understood. But I also test present reality, personally, is there a bad tasting bug in my walnut. Reality is more than all the Saints' combined past. Their useful guesses and assumptions, into the me incorporated, others, not present approved, spit out, as the bad tasting walnut.

Laplace was asked by Napoleon, how God fitted into this system, he replied, 'Sire, I have not needed that hypothesis.' Somehow, your need blocks your seeing. See the need of the Victor Wolf. Try it. What happens ?

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me"
Physical continuity, protection. But protecting you, the faith ? Allah will the 72 virgin reward the suicide faith bomber..

Franko, come back. You refuse to do what a scientist would do, if the scientist is interested in helping to correct something out of order. Edison did not deal with "black holes", he asked "what if..."

Carver's record carries his life in his productive results. Come back and turn your attention to the reality carved out of ignorance by the successful scientists.

"But the scientific method can be applied to Carver’s work"
Like a doctor, asking what hurts you, We cannot ask Carver ,What caused the perception sickness, Carver's Faith. Faith of the confused monkey, uncomfortable, eats, not the banana, but security.

Look: “What happens if you throw an elephant into a black hole?”
Perhaps Carver's secrets, duplicated, in a black hole, real reality, God's projection, even all black holes have common reality source ?. More fundamental than space time locality ?

"Apply the scientific method and test. Record the result and test again"
Old methods, Faiths can be simply just too stoopid, (athur miller definition – know incorrect but repeat the wrong (fear of punishment, mind in the survivor cricible, faith, the self, live on, but reality finally shhots you) Need new methods, theories, OojieFaithBoard has limitation, possibly, not Even Totally Wrong

Watch: Richard Feynman explains the feeling of confusion
Sometimes, we find the banana of reality ? BurpZilla, then confusion again ?

Franko, you are absolutely correct. We must stand on the shoulders of the past. But the scientific method can be applied to Carver's work, as it can to any aspect of religion, because religion is based on the universal law of individual action and Divine response. Religion requires the participation of the experimenter. One cannot discuss it and make any progress; one must choose to test religion by acting on what it promises.

You begin with the supposition that the Creator is Reality, and His representatives spoke the truth. In this aspect, the past is the present, because the Creator is the ever-present NOW. So, set forth the hypothesis: if you act a certain way, the Creator responds a certain way. Apply the scientific method and test. Record the result and test again. It is a personal journey.

George Washington Carver, his Faith, Ideas, now in the Carver Museum.

Not around anymore to ask and see, what his fear or his desire, elicited Faith

Like the Axiom of choice, neither George Washington Carver or mathematics is the ultimate reality. Need to live, invent, in present, stand on the shoulders of the past.

Four years of environmental science, combined with a legal assistant and journalism programs, followed by a doctorate in universal religious laws, built on this foundation, as quoted by Dr George W Carver, a man no mainstream educational institution will allow in the classroom:

"God is goint to reveal to us things He never revealed before if we put our hands in His. No books ever go into my laboratory. The thing I am to do and the way of doing it are revealed to me. I never have to grope for methods. The method is revealed to me the moment I am inspired to create something new. Without God to draw aside the curtain I would be helpless. ...I indulge in very little lip service, but ask the Great Creator silently daily, and often many times per day to permit me to speak to Him through the three great Kingdoms of the world, which He has created, viz – the animal, mineral and vegetable Kingdoms; their relations to each other, to us, our relations to them and the Great God who made all of us. I ask Him daily and often momently to give me wisdom, understanding and bodily strength to do His will, hence I am asking and receiving, all the time."

Before you turn aside from the Creator of the universe, read and study this man's lifetime of work, based faith in God and two degrees in Scientific Agriculture: Over three hundred uses for the peanut, over 118 uses for the sweet potato, over 60 for the pecan. Among his discoveries: peanut butter: mock meat: sauces, cosmetics, dyes, paints and stains: adhesives, paper, synthentic cotton and silk; wall board, synthetic marble, gasoline, diesel fuel. ...

Each in your own way search for some kind of harmony. Carver discovered and taught the harmony of science and religion and gave the world wonders. And science, breaking away from harmony, hid away his discoveries.

And what does this have to do with New Orleans? Science and religion, combined, teach one truth: The world is alive in its own way, and it Will seek homeostasis.

No immediate vote gain for preventing future disasters.
Something like, Tomorrow newer comes. Vote loss, for crying wolf ?

Multilevel representative democracy, lack of threat understanding.
Reminds me of multilevel marketing, profit mostly at the top.
