RDF changes..again..

Post by Rum » Fri Nov 30, 2012 10:35 pm

The RD foundation site seems to have changed again. It has a new format (new to me anyway) and seems sadly even blander than it was.

Exciting stuff :hehe:

I believe they are well on target to reach their aim of making the RDF website 100% content-free by 2016.
100% verifiable facts or your money back. Anti-fascist. Enemy of woo - theistic or otherwise. Cloth is not an antiviral. Imagination and fantasy is no substitute for tangible reality. Wishing doesn't make it real.

Whatever happened to Timonen? The case got dropped, right? So is he elsewhere now wrecking someone else's website?

I'd almost forgotten about RDF entirely. Dick has managed to make his web presence almost entirely irrelevant.

I'm afraid you leave us no choice.

A Rationalia thread on TR would be too good to pass up.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

The Net is best considered analogous to communication with disincarnate intelligences. As any neophyte would tell you. Do not invoke that which you have no facility to banish.

Oh, and I looked at the RDF site.

It's a good thing I'm still too young to die of boredom.
