Global Warming For Dummies Pt II: Denialist Fallacies 5-10
2007-03-04 12:33:00
It’s about time I got off my bum and wrote the second part in the blog series which I started back on ‘Bruce’s Rave and Rant‘ in December of last year. So here it goes with 5-10. This has been fun. Maybe I’ll do a 1-10 of dramatist fallacies some time.Remainder of the post found at The Thinker's Podium, where comments are enabled.Tags: Global +War ming, Culture+Wars, Science

Let The Migration Commence!
2007-01-22 16:29:03
I've begun to set up shop over at Wordpress. My new blog is called "The Thinker's Podium".You will notice that comments are disabled for this post. That'll be the default here at Rave and Rant until I stop posting here. All promised posts (part 2 of the "Global Warming for Dummies" for example) will be mirrored here while commenting is enabled over at the new blog. I'll back-post previous parts to Wordpress as well.I have to say, writing my first post at Wordpress was a good deal more relaxing that writing in (new or old) Blogger's interface. I hope it reflects in my writing.Thanks to those who have offered to update their links to me. It is very much appreciated. I hope you my new blogging efforts sufficiently interesting to warrant your attention.Tags: Blogosphere

That's it folks... I'm done with blogger.I've had a tinker with the new Blog ger and to be honest, it still won't let me do the things that I want to do.Rather than continue with my experiments with generating a new template from scratch (which has been handicapped by the options available to me), I'm going to migrate to a different blog provider. Not that I don't appreciate Google for running blogger and hosting my blog (and hosting various open source events as well.) I'm just done with Blogger.I'm sure it will suffice for the needs of others though.All promised blogs, ect will still go ahead albeit on the new blog when it gets up and running. I'll be nice and continue to post here for a little while after the migration like I did when I migrated to Blogger in 2005.When I decide on where to settle down, I'll post a link for those wishing to update their blogrolls.BTW, happy 2007 ;)Tags: Blogosphere, migration

Atheism leads to immorality? Bunk!
2007-01-01 16:15:01
Us atheists have had to put up with a lot of manure being pedalled as informed ethics in order to smear us with the crimes of Pol Pot, Stalin and Hitler. We got it from hardcore apologists, we get it from culture warriors, most of all though, we get it from fakes. Bigoted phobics who want to maintain the "moral instruction" of their flock through fraudulent pretence to moral authority.They say that their morality comes from God, which in turn through their scholarship of their religions texts, naturally puts them in a position of power relative to their flock. The idea that the Godless can discern morality threatens these snake-oil moralists, these theological demagogues who never adapted to the Enlightenment.Take the hypothetical story of Bruce babysitting little Timmy...Bruce was born Godless into a non-God-fearing family who never went to church nor had a Bible in their house. His parent's parents weren't church goers either and Bruce's Grandparents kept their religious views ...

PC Hypocrisy - Newspeak Dictionary Entry: Ecoterrorism
2006-12-29 04:12:05
Ecoterrorism - (?'k?-t?r'?-r?z'?m) - Noun.1) The act of violence or sabotage for environmental purposes.See also; "The Green Religion", "Tree Hugger".Thanks to Ron Arnold of The Centre for The Defence of Free Enterprise (aka for the purposes of this blog 'The Ministry of Truth'), we have a special term for terrorism committed with a specific purpose. He coined the term in his 1997 book 'Ecoterror.'Don't you enjoy the contributions of right-wing, culture war think tanks?I've long been a participant of online political discussion, right back into the 90s. I can remember the "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy Web Ring" and the "Right to Hate" online movement. Back then, the US culture wars of the 1990s were in full swing and online political discussion revolved largely around them. Golden times (I'm being sarcastic).Back then, the right-wingers were still prattling on about "leftist political correctness", like they didn't persecute people for saying the unsay-able (ie anything rem...

Welcome Back To The Blogosphere "Sprog"
2006-12-29 04:12:05
I only surfed over to 'Me Versus The Universe' the other day and found that "Sprog" had still not posted in a while. Blink and you'll miss it sometimes. Over the Xmas break, "Sprog" has written a deluge of blog entries, all quite funny.We need a bit of levity on the blogosphere. At least I do. "Sprog" was telling me the other day that he was disgusted by the criminal attack on Anonymous Lefty and Boltwatch. I became quite serious in my blogging, "Sprog" has remained as kooky as ever.So have a read of his work here. Enjoy. Laugh. Empathise because it's true (more or less).Tags: Humor, Local+Blog osphere

Stop Squadristi! Stop!
2006-12-28 04:11:04
Sorry for my tardiness. I had the update to my last post with the Tim Blair link posted a few days ago. There was an error with the publishing that prevented it from being viewed by you, the public.The responses to the hacking and deletion of Anonymous Lefty and Boltwatch has been mixed.Tim Blair's comments condemning the hacking are largely undermined by his uncritical parroting of accusations against Mr Lefty by Andrew Landeryou;"UPDATE. Andrew Landeryou contacts Sear after being accused of hackerizing:"The legal professional had to be reminded that by making that claim he was accusing me of engaging in a serious crime under Australian law. Clearly no genius, his stuttering and stammering indicated he hadn?t quite thought about that." - Andrew LanderyouSear?s claim has been removed. (Tim Blair, 2006)If Tim Blair had been a bit more careful with the facts he would realise that Mr Lefty never made an accusation against Landeryou. I read what Lefty wrote and he was voicing suspicion...

I'll blog more about this later in the piece, but news just in; Anonymous Lefty and Boltwatch have been taken over by a cybersquatter. The Internet Squadristi have sunk to a new low.I hope Mr Lefty's latest cyberstalker's violation of the blogger Terms of Service actually has something done about it. This is unequivocally criminal and it shows you just what kind of culture we are up against in the form of the extreme right.I wasn't going to comment, but now that it's on topic, after doing the right thing and dropping her anti-El-Stalko blog and withdrawing, El Stalko has taken a cheap shot by cybersquatting the blog URL and is using it to attack her. He's even filled up the comments of her only post on her cooking blog with 31 posts of irrelevance.What's cooking got to do with flame wars? At least (and I still think it's not enough) Janine had some kind of factual basis and relevance to her "attack material".I'm going to let Janine comment here, provided she doesn't link t...

Good news: Mansour Osanloo is a free man
2006-12-21 16:07:04
Eric Lee writes;"Following a very large international campaign that brought together the International Trade Union Confederation, the International Transport Workers Federation, Amnesty International, the European Union, and thousands of individual trade unionists who participated in the online campaign on LabourStart, jailed Iranian trade union leader Mans our Osanloo is now free after a month in jail.(Eric Lee, 2006)This is but a small success in an on-going struggle. While we can breathe a sign of relief that Osanloo is free, the situation that lead to his wrongful detention still persists; totalitarian oppression. We need to repeat this success over and over again until Osanloo and his colleagues are free to perform their duties representing the workers of Iran.Seven thousand signatories from over the world is what we achieved in this campaign, but GetUp! can get more Australian signatories for worthy causes not quite as important as this.Osanloo has been released under (unfair a...

Apathy: 2007 Australian Blog Awards
2006-12-21 16:07:04
I tried to get interested last year and thought "Hey! Maybe I'll get nominated in 2006/2007 and then I'll have to take it seriously." It's that time of year again; Collective Apathy is hosting the Australia n Blog Awards .It's always a bit funny these things (or at least I think so.) From memory, the last I checked (which is a while ago), the Adelaide Index was a catalogue of blogs, not a blog per se. It's nominated as a contender to the best Adelaidian blog; a title that usually goes to Watchdog of the Wankers.Part of me really wants to support the awards. No heck, I want the awards to do well. I think though, there is a problem with regards to critical mass. At a guess, I'd say the proportion of blog readers that participate in the awards, while not insignificant, is subject to a kind an inverse of the law of big numbers.Flip a coin four times, and heads quite reasonably could come up 75% of the time, but this isn't the probability spread. Eventually, as the number of coin to...

Blog Highlight: Simple Life of YP
2006-12-21 16:07:04
Normally I don't respond to requests for me to add links to my sidebar, or where ever else. The best way to approach me like this is to point out something that may interest me (by email) and hope that I add a link or something (the exception being where there is an existing understanding.)I'll make an exception in this instance. I had a squizz over at YP's blog and found an interesting entry about the future of the blogosphere. It seems that spam has become a serious problem for those navigating the blogs.YP is a 16 year old guy from Malaysia who seems to have an interest in a number of areas where I need to get off my butt and brush-up (or at least do something.) His latest entry is about page design, and I really have to finish this dang blog template (and get a new template ready for the new blogger.)So get on over and say "hi" to Yee!Tags: Blog osphere, Splogs, Blamming, Design

Building a Better Blogosphere
2006-12-19 22:04:08
The past 12 months has seen a good deal of acrimony on the blogosphere and one has to ask themselves just how much time has been given to pointless flame wars at the expense of constructive discussion. Enough effort goes into maintaining a viable comments policy and so forth without having to manage net-creeps and flame warriors.Sure, on occasion it can be amusing and even educational to give the odd perpetrator enough rope. But when you have bloggers mounting extended campaigns against other bloggers, it gets stupid. You only need one net-nasty in a network of blogs to have an endless cycle of vitriol. I think it is a truism that if net-nasties aren't artful dodgers, they are in fact deluded enough to convince themselves that they have dodged and weaved artfully, when in fact they are clearly and unmistakably wrong.I don't mean to be disparaging with the use of the word "deluded", but there really isn't a word that better describes the condition.Getting into long-winded debates ...

But I've got an Uncle...!
2006-12-16 10:01:01
Hasty induction, fallacy of the lonely fact, false induction; it goes by many names. When someone tries to induct a truth from a statistically insufficient sample, often by way of anecdote, we often pick up on this particular breed of bunk.The classic example is "I've got an Uncle who smoked like a train and he lived until he was 90! (therefore smoking is harmless). That's the fallacy of the lonely fact. But the smoking-is-harmless bunk also comes in plain "hasty induction" flavor as well; "...it's not just my Uncle who smoked until he was 90, so did his wife and so did his best mate Clem (therefore smoking is harmless)."Of course, as is the case with so many of a hastily induced argument that goes up against deduced truth, the shear bunkiness of the theory is readily apparent. Smoking kills and very few people buy into the "but I've got an Uncle" line of reasoning. Not unless their reasoning is somehow impaired (be it through limited intelligence, mental illness or both).Many a...
My Xmas Wishlist

Okay, I'm currently sitting in a computer pool at the City East campus of the University of South Australia, waiting to visit a friend who works here. As it turns out, he's busy for the next hour, so I'll bore you with some of the books I wouldn't mind for xmas, or that I may purchase for myself over the next few months...The Critique of Pure Reason - Immanuel KantA Treatise of Human Nature - David HumeThe Logic of Scientific Discovery - Karl PopperRadical Constructivism - Ernst von GlasersfeldNew Science - Giambattista VicoDeep Simplicty - John GribbinPHP 5 Advanced - Larry UllmanI've either read, owned and lost or just plain want the above. Good reads (or at least practical), I am confident. A pity that Booktopia spelt von Glasersfeld's name wrong, but there you go. Booksellers aren't all book readers.So that's my wish list to Santa. Unfortunately, my belief in Santa is equally proportional to my beleif in God. Oh well... Happy Holidays!

English Test To Fail Migrants? Racism in action?
2006-12-12 15:58:01
Now that John Howard has plans for migrants to be given a skills/values test, the question of who we exclude and why has arisen. Aside from the whole values debate and the relativism that usually pops up when the Federal Government gets people together to "brainstorm" what our shared values are, there is the particular question of "does this discriminate on the grounds of opportunity?", raised by the incorporation of an English literacy test.According to the ABC...."Union federal vice-president Angelo Gavrielatos says only 20 per cent of adult migrants are gaining basic English skills from their classes because the hours are limited.He says people who are not entitled to the free 500 hours of tuition will be excluded forever."If one has to, again in John Howard's words, master the English language, if they're denied access to programs, how could they ever attain citizenship?" Mr Gavrielatos said.(ABC News, 2006)So will this discriminate? Is this a "trap for teachers"; teachers who...

Wikipedia Vandalism? - Part #0
2006-12-09 03:56:01
Yeah, I know that I've got about three series of blogs currently in draft, but I have been planning to do coverage of the vandalism of Wiki pedia by right-wing think tanks. In the meantime, here's some curious evidence for your consideration..."Since its shifting, it may help that this is by "James Rowlatt" (actually anon IP 62.136.27.125, which appears to locate to London... errm although another one says Energis UK ooop North. Can anyone do better? Note BTW that Lord M does indeed appear to have a clerk by that name) and this is the other sides. They seem to have done a fairly good job of reading M's references and discovering that many of them don't quite say what M wants them too; they aren't so good at lambda - they should just read RC for that.(Stoat, 2006)Well, I can't find the "James Rowlatt" reference, rather Edward Buckner as the author of the first bit of documentation. In any case, things will almost certainly flare up.It'll be interesting to see how the Monkton ve...

Global Warming For Dummies Update: "Responce to Zed"
2006-12-09 03:56:01
"Zed" has (politely) made a couple of criticisms of 'Global War ming for Dummies Pt I'; by email lest he be accosted in the comments section. I'll address these criticisms here. Criticism 1 - That to assert that AGW is true on the basis of the fallacies of "denialists", is to draw affirmative conclusion from a negative. He also points out that Creationists make this mistake in their attacks on evolution (if evolution is false, then creationism is true.) I agree with this argument. However, it is not my assertion that AGW is true because denialist arguments are fallacious. Rather I am describing some of the tactics employed in denialist propaganda, and discussing a few facts along the way in order to help people from being deceived. Criticism 2 - What are the sources for these fallacies? How can we know you aren't making them up?Okay, here's an ad-hock equivalent of a sources list for the fallacies. As it is predominantly based on my experiences with net-denialists over the last ...

Farewell Kim Beazley
2006-12-06 03:54:03
I've been a bit rough on old Kim Beazley of late. Calling him "Kimbo" and "Bomber" and bringing his leadership into question.The fact is though, that Kim wasn't the man for the job. Anything he can do, Rudd can do better. It hasn't always been the case though. Sure, Beazley hasn't been a perfect politician, but he hasn't been entirely crap either. I can recall writing to his office in 1999 to give him a pat on the back for the ALP's opposition to the inept net-filtering plans of the Howard Government of the day. I can recall once thinking the Beazley was the best leader for the party, and with the benefit of hindsite I don't think I was wrong in that assessment.Still, times change.Becoming compliant with plans for a school chaplain system that will unavoidably preference some religions over others and simply can not proportionally represent the religious make-up of a school, is a sign of weakness.

Update: Iran Jails Mansour Osanloo

A while back I wrote about the jailing of the Iran ian Union Leader Mans our Osanloo. While it is reported that thousands of signatories have been collected, it still isn't enough by the looks of things.GetUp! can get tens of thousands of people to sign petitions for ABC funding and a range of other (worthy) causes. Yet when a blatant case of human rights violation pops up, we only get a fraction. Sure, GetUp! is an effective means of campaigning but come-on! This is a human rights abuse!Eric Lee reports that things have taken a turn for the worse...We know that Oslanloo has been taken to Evin prison where authorities claim that they are "negotiating" with him. (How you can negotiate with someone who you've arrested is an interesting question.)The authorities also claim that he will be allowed one visitor, his mother -- but no one has told the guards outside the prison. His mother waited in vain for a chance to see her son.His family has not even been allowed to phone him.(Eric Le...

Global Warming For Dummies Pt I: Denialist Fallacies 1-5
2006-12-06 03:54:03
Dedicated to Ninglun, Mikey and Kevin. For being patient (more or less.)Many of those out there that like to deny the existence of industry induced global warming are pretty much like the Young Earth Creationists (YECs) that like to deny evidence that the Earth is older than 6,000-10,000 years. They play science by using "sciencey" language, but when it comes to well established scientific principals, it's fingers-in-ears time.For example, YECs love to misrepresent radiometric dating in order to claim that it isn't a well established part of physics. Global warming denialists are often the same (and sometimes worse) when it comes to thermal expansion and spectroscopy; failing to be able to discredit either, they just ignore them.You've probably seen lists of "ten creationist fallacies" and the sort, so it's about time that the global warming denialists got one as well.

Neoceratodus forsteri is a particularly significant fish. There are only six species of the order Dipnoi known to still exist, and Neoceratodus sp. may be on the way out! These critters have been around for over 370 million years and they evince (thanks Arthur) traits of evolutionary significance, as PZ Myers will tell you.

Metablogging Oxymorons: "Troll Sites"

Here's a quick blog entry about a wee detail that's been irking me just a little; the oxymoron "Troll Site ." I shall not be long with this post, as with opportunity still a-knocking at the moment, I'm spending a bit more of my time off-line.What's a troll (in net-lingo)? A troll is someone who enters into a discussion, be it held on a blog, a discussion list, a USENET group or a forum and uses any number of strategies to stiffle debate and/or provoke an emotional responce from other posters. Some call themselves culture-jammers, sometimes they call themselves a Devil's Advocate.Trolls are neither; their contrary arguments don't increase the sum of knowledge in a group. When conclusion X (let's say "apples are blue") has been shown to be false in the past, the troll will use X as a premise ("hey! But what if the apple is blue people!"). If they get their way, they will draw debate back on to the topic of the truth of X, claiming it hasn't been debated properly, but the troll ...

ABC AWB Deception

This should form the basis for a few Punditocracy Watch psots for a while to come.Fact: John Howard said that if Terence Cole QC asked for an expansion to the terms of reference to include the Government, Terence Cole would get it.Fact: Terence Cole said it would be inappropriate for him to ask for an expansion to the terms of reference.Fact: The scope of the Cole Inquiry did not expand to investigate the role of the Government.Fact: An inquiry that does not investigate the role of the Government, can neither condemn nor clear the Government.So what the hell is with all this "Government Cleared" rubbish? The Government can't be cleared by the inquiry! It was never investigated!"Government Cleared in AWB Probe", says the ABC. Wrong. Untrue. False. The fact that the ABC has repeatedly covered the fact that the Cole Inquiry did not have the scope to investigate the Government makes this "mistake" inexcusable.

Atheists and Christians: Forming a Dialogue
2006-12-02 15:51:05
A little while back, I blogged about my contention that atheists should give support to secularism-friendly churches. Part of my contention was on the basis of the misunderstandings leveled between theists and atheists. I'm even surer in this contention than before.A recent tirade of falsehoods by Bill Muehlenberg, 'Atheism Kills', has been fisked by Sammy Jankis of Smogblot. For my two cents on the topic; cent one: Hitler, Stalin and Mao all had brown hair, does that mean that all brown haired people were killers as such? It's called guilt by association Bill - the form of your argument is invalid; cent two: One of your premises is wrong; Hitler was a Chris t ian - first Catholic, and then an architect of 'Positive Christianity.'Not that I'd use Hitler to smear Christendom though. I'll leave those kind of fallacies for the propaganda of the likes of Bill.In exposing Muehlenberg's falsehoods and misrepresentations, Sammy raises and important point; secularism and theism are...

A Little Piece of Union History: 1999 - "The Dummy"

I just pulled this off of my wall as I started packing away the contents of my tiny flat;Ad-homiem? Yes. A mild one though; "The Mummy" was a movie at the time and well, "Mummy" and "Dummy" rhyme.

Mike Rann, giving a truthful, if awkward speech on what Labor would promise to do if elected (his oratory has improved greatly since then; last year at the Your Rights at Work NDA, he was much, much better).It has for me, a less gloomy time; sure, Clinton was bombing the crap out of people, but there was no post 9/11 hysteria either. Nor could the Howard Government so martial the fear of the Australian public as to be given control of the senate.1999 was the year, and back then unionists were predicting that Reith's Industrial Relations reforms were the first in t...

It's that time of year again folks, the issue hasn't gone away. This Thursday, in your capital city and around the country, your fellow Australians will be rallying to action. The Howard Government's Industrial Relations reforms haven't gone away and they are still wreaking havoc on people's lives, with more to follow.Just ask Spotlight workers, just ask new employees working at the helpdesks of ISPs working night-shift for minimum wage. You can still be fined thousands of dollars just for asking for a fair deal in individually negotiated contracts.So what can you do about it? Turn up and be counted, that's what!For my fellow Adelaidians, turn up at 8am at Elder Park for a demonstration, before a march to Rundle Park at 9:30 for a concert until noon.For the rest of you, click here to see where the action is closest to you; there is something going on in both rural and urban areas.Tags: Your +Rights +At+Work , Union+News, Unionism, Unfair+Dismissal, IR+Laws
