    If you have to quote someone quote the whole phrase at least.

    Are you feeling a bit flushed TJ. All that lying must really tax your limited ressources.

    Irrelevant. You argued that a post is not a post while attacking forum members with anti-Semite slurs simply because you don't know if they are Jews or not.

    And again the same mixed up incomprehensible anti-semitic trash.

    Prozac or Lithium?

    You are discussing the same matters as I am as your post above demonstrates. Discussing other matters on a thread is not evidence of racist hatred or smearing or slurs. Please link any of my posts doing so.

    that is not anti semitism.

    if the statement was 'Jews' are the last vestige of nazism, a smelly little bunch of racists devoted to murder and theft ...

    THAT would be anti semitism.

    many Jews are critical of Israel's policies, including many who are Israeli citizens.

    there has been at least one (Jewish) holocaust survivor that has compared Israel's actions to those of the Nazis, and others who have protested against Israel's treatment of the Palestinians.

    criticism of Israel - even calling it a nazi state - is not necessaily related to prejudice against the Jewish people.

    see the bolded part above - then consider the following:

    to which you responded:

    there is inconsistency here.

    why are you callling Judge an anti semite if you agree with what I posted?

    Interesting. You appear to think differently when it comes to Africans:

    I'd say it depends on the language and bashing a country or a continent can certainly be an expression of racism or antisemitism.

    They are by far the most famous and prestigious science awards so your question reveals displeasure with that simple fact more than anything else. Can you suggest any other science award everyone on this thread even knows about?

    i was on the thread topic. I know (knew) the existing paradigm is wrong and i could care less who gets which awards.

    my post was about, the topic and inquiring if anyone even knows what the 'science' of the award means to mankind.

    the op idiot was trying to share how great israel and jews are but that is becoming old hypocrit style of thinking, for bigots.

    I am more interested in the growth of mankinds understanding of what the 'f' we are. (while being alive, within existence)

    So do you even care about what the award was about and what it means, or are you just arguing for arguments sake?

    Who cares who wins recognition as a person but the contributions to mankind is what to seek and 'win'

    as for the award of 'understanding' ones self (the univeral quest of mankind)


    I already WON.


    ie...... "the math is the name to know" and only one on this earth, has it, Me!


    but that aint what is important. What is important is (are) the principles behind how existence (everything as ONE) operates.

    So again, does anyone comprehend that the award was the scientific community accepting the FACT that what many thought was describing existence as far as the 'rules' aint rules but simply 'guidelines' (that will be repealed (to the pirates code (giggle giggle)))?

    I am sorry, but perhaps you dont know that i aint here to just rant and rave. I am focused on 'learning and sharing" with an overall scope of enabling people to think, for themselves.

    'we are ONE"

    and that is what i am all about!

    I am a very simple person and no different than any other, except what i value. i value LIFE and the growth of mankind, itself!

    Again, how many comprehend what the nobel means to mankind?

    How many even care?

    if you are going to use my quotes - pleasde use them in context.

    if not - you are attempting to deliberately misrepresent what I have said ...

    Africa ... BTW ... is not a nation.

    this is true ... but from time to time I DO wonder about the selection of prizewinners ... there have been examples that have been passed over that have made considerable contribution to science - and so I wonder how these prizes are selected. I do not say this to minimise the contribution of people like shechtman, who is clearly brilliant and deserving of recognition - but I also don't know why him winning a prize needs to develop into a "my dick is bigger than your dick" competition.

    the peace prize nominations are also very problematic at times.

    This does indeed seem to be a problem. What matters is that the individual was justly awarded for their efforts, not the religion, nationality or culture the individual may belong to. If one focuses on generalizations more than individual efforts, then one creates the impression that something other than individual effort is involved.

    So I'm an idiot for posting this thread here.
    Does it heart you that he is an Israeli that much ?
    While all the haters here are trying to derail the post.
    Where are your posts that relates to science ?

    You can look up my latests posts and you can see that I was the only one posting about a malaria vaccine, which will save the lives of milions, just several days ago.

    Sigh. He was born in Palestine and studied in America. His major research was done there. Promoting his prize as an ' Israeli triumph ' is laughable. The fact that he's an Israeli national wasn't even worth mentioning.

    Apparently it was because after so many pages, you keep denying it.

    Why does it matter and if it does not why do you keep denying it?

    I can see why the Arab Muslims are so angry at the Jews. The Jews keep winning Nobel Prizes for making the world a better place, and all the Arab Muslims can do is blow things up and hide behind women and children.

    ? Again- and assimilate it this time around- I have NEVER denied that he was an Israeli national. Show otherwise or be silent.
