I've noticed how the professor's remarks about Somalia were edited and cut offhe was discussing the origin of humanity within africa and mentioned Somalia, contrasting the state of Somalia today with a brief history of the ancient trade of spices and richness that Somalia was known for, but his comments were edited and cut off as soon as he uttered the word 'but'very suspect

Sacrifice is about creating the psychological effect of what Buddhists call 'detachment' Except its not simply about reducing material attachments, but reducing them relative to symbolic attachments

jesbeard - the 'quote' you refer to is at 24:11, and he is specifically referring to the myth of Adam and Eve, not in a belief in the Bible as a whole Most Christians, except for the most fundamentalist believer that the Bible is a historical document, accept that Genesis is more of an allegory than an accurate historical depiction of how humanity was 'created' brbrNonetheless, the statement regarding admittance to Columbia was in reference to the 'trope' (metaphorical reference) that all languages are derived from Noah's three sons - which is bclearly/b not the case Anyone who holds such a literal belief absolutely would not be accepted into Columbia, and most likely would never even have applied If you see that as 'elitism', I suggest you should look at yourself with regards to your own attitude (and that of religious fundamentalists) regarding science and reason brbrDoesn't it seem odd that some people would accept that a single document that is purported to be 'directly from God', though no solid evidence exists to support this claim but plenty exists to suggest that it was written and translated (and re-translated) by humans (which at the very least means there are likely to be gross errors in interpretation), would be considered more valid than the myriad of actual direct evidence which, through the use of reason (that was purportedly given by God), contradicts that document?

i gotta agree with jesbeard on the youtube comment there, this isnt a place to argue or debate the only positive thing that can happen on youtube is people agreeing with eachother In other news, i like how this guy is just trashing all the ideas out there i may not agree with thwm, but these common notions are fun to challenge
Comment from : Jason Smith

Rick, youtube is a remarkably poor venue for such a discussion, and as a result, even if you really, really want to have one I'll pass
Comment from : jesbeard

Considering he earlier referred to the entire Bible as a "myth" (direct quote), and that the direct quote at 30 min in is, "There's a whole series of these themes that have been clearly outgrown Nobody who's likely to get into Columbia is likely to believe in these literal truths of these various troafs," (particularly the considering the "literal truths" wording), I stand by my interpretation of what he meant

Comment from : jesbeard

And some folks wonder why anyone would contemptuously refer to the "intellectual elite"
Comment from : jesbeard

At roughly 30 minutes into the video he essentially says that anyone accepting a literal reading of the Bible (specifically related to the development of linguistic divisions resulting from the separation of Noah's sons) "would not get into Columbia" in the first place and that therefore there is little reason to discuss it further This would mean anyone believing the Bible is either not bright enough for Columbia, or Columbia would not accept, regardless how bright Pretty amazing admission
