this guy has a really cool webseries, he mixes science and christianity and shows not all christians are fanatical religious closed minded zealots

....They are not ?
shit, i had it all wrong.


Yea he's a pretty cool guy, been watching his web series for a long time now, he's super nice and tries to keep his series on the science, but he does get into some discussion on some of his videos such as this one.

He went to Peru on a missionary service and recorded a clip on his channel and some interesting science / religion discussions in the comments

Except that this is quite obviously contrails from an airliner with the sun reflecting off them.

I love how, in the youtube comments, all the conspiracy whackos are arguing with each other over whether this is an alien craft, a secret government weapon, chemtrail deployment, or a sign of the endtimes, and they all have the nerve to call the others crazy.


You're crazy.

I think this has something to do with the secret super sonic plane that the USA is testing up and down the pacific ocean.
Its so fast...not quite a meteor , not just a plane..But its good for you.
Our government just had to admit to this when they lost one about 2 weeks ago. Maybe a pulse engine?

I think this is what you mean.

Milton Friedman and the Miracle of Chile

What Chile did have was intellectual capital, thanks to an exchange program between its Catholic University and the economics department of the University of Chicago, then Friedman's academic home. Even before the 1973 coup, several of Chile's "Chicago Boys" had drafted a set of policy proposals which amounted to an off-the-shelf recipe for economic liberalization: sharp reductions to government spending and the money supply; privatization of state-owned companies; the elimination of obstacles to free enterprise and foreign investment, and so on."

In left-wing mythology—notably Naomi Klein's tedious 2007 screed "The Shock Doctrine"—the Chicago Boys weren't just strange bedfellows to Pinochet's dictatorship. They were complicit in its crimes. "If the pure Chicago economic theory can be carried out in Chile only at the price of repression, should its authors feel some responsibility?" wrote New York Times columnist Anthony Lewis in October 1975. In fact, Pinochet had been mostly indifferent to the Chicago Boys' advice until the continuing economic crisis forced him to look for some policy alternatives. In March 1975, he had a 45-minute meeting with Friedman and asked him to write a letter proposing some remedies. Friedman responded a month later with an eight-point proposal that largely mirrored the themes of the Chicago Boys.

For his trouble, Friedman would spend the rest of his life being defamed as an accomplice to evil: at his Nobel Prize ceremony the following year, he was met by protests and hecklers. Friedman himself couldn't decide whether to be amused or annoyed by the obloquies; he later wryly noted that he had given communist dictatorships the same advice he gave Pinochet, without raising leftist hackles.

As for Chile, Pinochet appointed a succession of Chicago Boys to senior economic posts. By 1990, the year he ceded power, per capita GDP had risen by 40% (in 2005 dollars) even as Peru and Argentina stagnated. Pinochet's democratic successors—all of them nominally left-of-center—only deepened the liberalization drive. Result: Chileans have become South America's richest people. They have the continent's lowest level of corruption, the lowest infant-mortality rate, and the lowest number of people living below the poverty line.

How to tell how pretty a white woman is

csnel3 says...

He is performing for Americans , I don't think it's odd that they know who Natalie hallaway is. We might notice an American high school girl who disappears on spring break, while in a foreign country, and we might not care as much about a prostitute in Peru, who is killed in her local hotel. It is kinda weak to make fun of Americans for this, even the murderer is not from here, it's not odd to be concerned about your own tribe above the others.
I do like the "white baby beacon " joke, that would work.
