FUD.
If any of these militant Christian candidates get elected (especially Guliani) they’re going to start a war. A big one. Neocons encourage terrorism. Religious extremism encourages violence.
As a realist I recognize the need to maintain (and constantly modernize) our military capabilities, but we have to combine that with a drive to stop using them. Our reputation and respect in the world’s eye is what keeps us safe — not having more weapons.
In security terms we need to stop increasing the numbers of those who want to hurt us rather than (stupidly) trying to stop them from being able to hurt us. Nice guy. Big stick. But nice guy first.
This site is an avatar for my own self-assigned life purpose--an attempt to model the world in the most accurate way possible, and to do so without bias or fear of unpleasant truth. I desire to develop, articulate, and perpetually improve models of how things work, and then to use that understanding to increase happiness and reduce suffering. I seek those on similar paths and thrive on sharing an appreciation of the interesting and beautiful with others.
