Simon Pegg's Present - Derren Brown: Trick of the Mind
"..best way to [handle, bar] none."
"..reCYCLE the same TWO TIRED.."
"...by creating.."
"eXtreme"
"X"
"BM-or Xbox"
Curious how much subject priming is required for suggestions of this sort to attach.
Simon Pegg's Present - Derren Brown: Trick of the Mind
Subliminal word play (like a BM or an XBOX)...BMX, and subliminal background objects (the tape player like a bikes wheels, theres something else around that looks like two wheels and a chain draped between them).
The power of subliminal messaging.

Bill Maher supports SOPA, gets owned by guests
>> ^qfan:
My point was that his condescending nature of religion makes him look like a hypocrite when he refers to a moral code, making him as "preachy" as those he slanders on a regular basis. It's not consistent.
Then he needs to define where this morality comes from. But that's another topic altogether.

"You know what? Somebody has to bring up that there is a moral dimension to this." BM
What do you know? Someone who just plugged their staunchly anti-religious documentary, preaching about morals.
Morality does not require religion... Paedo priests are a classic example...
As for Bill, he even says outloud why PIPA/SOPA are useless... "Every time we took one of them down, another would pop up". So basically they can't stop them popping up but they (not Maher) were willing to take the risk of impinging on legitimate sites on an impossible mission.
He may be playing the devil's adovcate but he sort undermines any position he had there. He doesn't have figures on piracy vs purchase, he doesn't have figures on how many pirated and then purchased, he doesn't know if his movie was promoted to greater success due to personal piracy.
I wholeheartedly agree with shutting down piracy for profit, but personal privay is kinda like taping the radio, government's can't stop it and they shouldn't bother because it'll cost them more in the long run, and the media companies aren't picking up the tab...
I "think" he has addressed that, but I can't remember specifically where. I think more of his criticism of religion is centered on believing in magical entities despite a lack of evidence and how that opens people up to manipulation by others.
I wouldn't say it makes him a hypocrite on the subject of morality, but he certainly does have his own unsupported beliefs (such as his anti-vaccine stance... not sure if he changed it).
He also seems to be supporting SOPA with the mindset of "it's aimed at a real problem that affects me, so it sounds like something worth supporting". Again, he's believing in something despite not really understanding it, so you can make somewhat of a case for hypocrisy on those grounds.

Well, I think he's always held the opinion that morality does not come from religion.
