Agree with Saif on Nukes. Finally more people are starting to get it. Great Podcast! You can fake nukes with large pile of TNT and movie magic. It's the ultimate boogeyman. Bombs can be big, but they are limited by material weight. You need a lot of material to make a big bang. The grain of rice nuke is a myth. That is what it looks like from where I'm sitting anyway, I could be wrong.
I agree with Saif that the destructive capacity of nuclear weapons is wildly overstated. WWII showed us pretty clearly that even the most vicious bombing campaigns, including the use of atomic weapons, are still less deadly and destructive than assaulting a city with artillery, infantry and armor.
@@wasdwasdedsf "angry little fellow" you would be too if you had contributed half as much time, effort, passion, and quality work to opposing the most evil people in the world openly like Scott has spent decades doing. GFY if you're gonna be that obnoxiously ungrateful
@@JeThoreau_ in tthat case, why does he, as a libertarian, cite unelected global organisations as objective sources for truth and rule of law within nations they have no say over?
I really appreciate your work Saif and I always love to hear Scott rant. I enjoy your conversations with Islamic thinkers regarding interest. It feels counter intuitive, at first, living in america where the Austrian critique is artificially low interest rates. You mention in passing the Christian ban/disapproval of usury, but it would be great to hear from an economically literate Christian. It doesn't seem obvious that usury is banned in the Bible given Jesus parable of the Talents. But, CS Lewis and others past church leaders have had opinions. Where, at least Lewis acknowledges his economic illiteracy. Maybe Bob Murphy. All the best to you and yours.
I was researching usury in the Bible last year - actually I was trying to make a comparison between usury in the Bible vs the Quran. I didn't find any explicit bans on usury in the Bible, but what I did find is practically constant comparisons of evil or destruction to usury. The Quran explicitly bans it and tells you the consequences of usury is mass insanity (actually that God declares war on usury and that war takes the form of mass insanity). The problem with the Bible is that most of the comparisons of evil to usury were lost in translation - that's the nicest way to explain it. I strongly suspect these comparisons were purposely omitted and that modification of the Bible was the real agenda of the Reformation. I was actually trying to make a list of all the mistranslations, and was having to get a handle on Greek to do it, but the task was absurdly huge - like, hundreds of mistranslations, and documenting it was just too much for me right now. This is why I think it was mistranslated on purpose - it's just too much to be an accident. Also usury was explicitly banned for over a thousand years in all Christian countries, up to fairly recently, when usury began to be redefined as interest rates over a certain amount. In the US that certain amount was 6% for a long time, and the reason all credit cards are headquartered in two states is because those two states don't have usury laws. Even though I'm a Christian, I must point out that the Quran is correct - our society is insane, and getting more insane, and I think it's because of usury/riba/interest. Unfortunately, we can't simply legislate away the problem because the US dollar is credit based, meaning for every dollar that's created, more than a dollar of debt is created, and there is no other way of created dollars. Bitcoin is truly the only thing that can save us. TLDR : the Bible has been changed (please verify this yourself, so you know it's true), and Christian finance used to be a thing and exactly the same as Islamic finance.
As to the ethnic Russians in East Ukraine. You'd be hard to find a dividing line between Russia and Ukraine. There is no natural border, it's a river on the plains and Ukrainians claim Russia is much smaller than she was in 2012 and Russians say that Ukraine is a German invention. Even defining the border between Poland and Ukraine is hard enough and no one is satisfied with it. Sadly, the majority of Slavs are more interested in working hard, eating pork fat and drinking vodka/beer, which is not necessarily bad but trying to make them fit the messianic arguments of one of the sides is a foolish enterprise. As Russians and Ukrainians are for the most part nominal adherents of Orthodox Christianity, they have been considered one nation against the Polish Catholics, who are hated by both Orthodox nations. Ukrainian in its literary form is foreign to the Russian ear and has many Balkanisms, but the current distribution of it was that in town or city, you spoke Russian, in the countryside you spoke Ukrainian, and the Soviets build huge cities, unproportional to the population, so everyone spoke Russian on the street, but in truly Ukrainian fashion, spoke Ukrainian at home.
