It's clear you didn't watch the videos (but are riffing off what the preview image shows).

The only one that is certain is of course you... {#Dance}

Here's one of those unneeded definitions again:

belief wrote:
conviction of the truth of some statement or the reality of some being or phenomenon especially when based on examination of evidence

I don't know so much about how us Secular Humanists are gonna deter our species from causing its own extinction. Some of us kind of wish the species would just HURRY UP.

You not only haven't understood what I wrote, you have added your own blind prejudice upon the top of it.  Richard, I wash my hands of you.  You are so certain that you need to be right that you are unwilling to get a qualified yes.  Did you really think I thought you "hate god"? and do you really think that your form of dogma is free of dogma just because you have thrown god out of your self-defined world view?  Please...

Since the topic at hand is humanism, I didn't feel like expounding on the economic history of the planet. I was aiming a friendly jibe at you, as you did.

As for the market in nuclear weapons: it seems the only players are among authoritarian dictatorships, but in the absence of restraints on price and supply I'm sure the market will find an optimal price.
 
Things must have changed around here. People are now actually interested in staying on-topic? OMGZ!!111! {#Wink}

While the latter has far too much regulation, your supposed evidence of Planet Earth isn't remotely free of regulation and/or subsidies.

PS: How's the free market for nuclear weapons coming along?

Historical evidence that a 'free market' works? Yes, I'd be interested in seeing that too.

We ran a little experiment, called "the 20th century". Pretty solid conclusion.
