Ziusudra Noah is an Old Testament character who made the second great Covenant with God after the Great Flood. He is also famous for getting drunk, passing out naked, and then cursing his grandson because his son tried convincing him to start attending Twelve Step Meetings saw him naked.
Now a major motion picture!Noah (2014) at IMDb
==Biography==
Noah was likely born at some time in some place in the Near East, probably in the Fertile Crescent (dubbed by some the "Cradle of Civilization"). As it so happened, no one but God survived to witness this event, making it a True Fact of a Christian nature.see arguments for a Young Earth and other such fairy-tales as to why God is the Best Witness Ever™. On or about Noah's 480th birthday,Great Flood Timeline by Chard Berndt, Creation by Design (archived from April 14, 2004). God informed Noah that it was gonna rain hard and that he had better build himself a boat. A big one! Then God apparently sent down detailed blueprints of a never-before-considered and extremely complex (yet simple enough to build with bronze-age toolsOr possibly not… according to some creationists, pre-flood civilisation was advanced enough to genetically modify animals to produce transitional fossils, so a little old ark wouldn't bother them.) ArkLiterally, a big box - see https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=ark. But conventionally understood as a boat or ship. that would hold two
Actually seven each of the "clean" animals (or seven pairs in some translations) and two each of the "unclean" ones.
of every animal (including dinosaurs, unicorns, mosquitoes, skunks and dragons!) that lived on the earth along with enough food and complex rain-catching devices to keep those animals alive for roughly 365 days. 
At the age of 600 years,"And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth." - Genesis 7:6 Noah got himself, his kids and his pet T. rex onto the Big Boat and they sailed around the world in 40 days. 
After the Flood, Noah started growing grapes, and—what else?—turning them into wine. He got drunk, danced naked in front of his tent, and passed out. His son Ham came in and saw him in that condition. Uh oh! When he learned the sordid details in the morning, Noah inexplicably cursed Ham's son, confusingly known as Canaan (rather than cursing Ham himself). Genesis 9:20 Possibly Noah was still drunk at the time, and presumably he swore off drinking afterward.
Noah died 950 years after his birth."And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died." - Genesis 9:29 Presumably, he carted his beard around behind him in a wheelbarrow, as if he were Father Time himself. 
Scholars believe that Biblical compilers based the character Noah on the mythical Mesopotamian figure Utnapishtim, who appears in the Epic of Gilgamesh (circa 2100 BCE), and who also survived a Great Flood by building a boat and got promoted to Godhood for surviving.

Noah (film)

Noah is a Hollywood film directed by Darren Aronofsky, the man who directed films such as The Wrestler and Black Swan. Noah was released in March 28, 2014 to good reviews, and the film grossed US$359 million worldwide. 
==Misrepresentations of Genesis==
Fundamentalist Christians and creationists have criticized the film for misrepresenting the global flood story in Genesis.http://billygraham.org/decision-magazine/april-2014/hollywoods-immoral-agenda/http://www.amazingfacts.org/news-and-features/af-blog/id/1024/noah-a-story-of-warning-not-amusement.aspxhttp://www.answersingenesis.org/creation-debate/noah-movie?utm_source=aig-homepage&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=noah-movie-campaign-videohttp://www.reasons.org/articles/are-you-ready-to-talk-about-noahhttp://www.creationtoday.org/why-i-wont-go-see-noah-on-march-28th/ It has also been banned in some Islamic countries for its depiction of Noah, whom Muslims see as a prophet.http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/08/us-islam-film-censorship-idUSBREA270BK20140308 
In fact, the reworking of popular historical myths has been a Hollywood staple for many years. For example reworked versions of The Iliad and The Odyssey have provided source material for a large number of movies. Heck, The Ten Commandments was a pretty edgy take on Exodus. With Noah, the film industry is simply continuing the same tradition,http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/moviesandtv/columns/moviebob/11209-10-Bible-Movies-Weirder-Than-Noah although the almost all-white cast is pretty cringe-worthy. 
===The Watchers===
The most notable target for critics are "the Watchers", giant rock creatures who help Noah build the Ark. They've been criticized both because they're extra-biblical and because they're basically just stolen from The Dark Crystal.
===Major concerns of Christians===
Emma Watson has been the center of controversy, with many Christians (okay, like three at most)And one of them lives in a cabin out in Alabama. exclaiming that the film implies that witches existed in the time of Noah. This is preposterous of course, because everyone knows that Hogwarts was not established until long after the Great Flood. Some People argue that Noah's wife was actually Hermione, and cite the fact that she has an hourglass that turns back time. They also believe that Hermione set in motion all of the human race, and this belief is considered Hermionism.

Noah Carl Controversy: FAQ (rebuttal)

Noah Carl is a disgraced academic who was sacked from St Edmund’s College, Cambridge University.
On 7 May 2019 he published a blog post on Medium, "Noah Carl Controversy: FAQ" responding to the termination of his research fellowship at Cambridge.https://medium.com/@NoahCarl/noah-carl-controversy-faq-ad967834b12d
The following rebuts his responses.
__TOC__
==What is your response to the College’s statement explaining their decision to fire you?==
==Last December, 586 academics signed an open letter accusing you of “racist pseudoscience”. That many academics can’t all be wrong, can they?==
==Okay, so individual differences in intelligence might have a genetic component. But what about differences between groups — they couldn’t possibly have a genetic component, could they?==
==But if genes contribute to group differences in intelligence, wouldn’t that mean the Nazis were right… or something?==
==Didn’t you go to a secret “eugenics conference” with “Neo-Nazi links”?==
==But don’t some of the researchers who attended the LCI hold “far-right” views?==
==Aren’t you a member of the “alt-right”?==
==Haven’t you published several papers in a non-peer reviewed “pseudojournal”?==
==But aren’t all the reviewers at OpenPsych “hereditarians”?==
==But aren’t all the reviewers at OpenPsych “far-right”?==
==But don’t the OpenPsych journals have an incredibly controversial editor named Emil Kirkegaard?==
==Didn’t you publish a paper claiming that “racist stereotypes” are “rational”?==
==Referring to your paper, didn’t an “external reviewer” claim that “research this bad should never be published in any form”?==
==14. Okay, but in your paper n = 23. I mean, come on!==

Noble lie

The noble lie is a political concept originated by Plato in The Republic. Put simply, it is the idea that, if the cultivation of nobility of the soul is the purpose of the state, then it is in fact laudable to lie to the people too dumb to understand the necessity of virtue. Put even more simply, it means that false propaganda for the sake of the public welfare is totally acceptable. It is the immaculately conceived son of Pious fraud and the big lie.
Historically, the concept was used by people who did not believe in the tenets of a certain religion, but used them to rally their followers.Q: Why can't I pillage that village? A: Because God will totally smite you if you do! Unless God has some smiting that needs to be done: :3 "Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass." More recently, it has been adopted and utilized by a number of neoconservatives, due partially to the influence of Leo Strauss, a scholar of Plato who seriously believed in telling noble lies.

__NOTOC__
Noetic science

Noetic science, according to its promoters, is an "exploration into the nature and potentials of consciousness using multiple ways of knowing—including intuition, feeling, reason, and the senses", most famously mentioned by Dan Brown in The Lost Symbol.
Note that noetic "science" and noetic philosophy are distinct. Noetic (from the Greek noetikos, "mental") philosophy is philosophy dealing with the mind, intellect, or consciousness. However, this more often goes under the more obvious name of "theory" or "philosophy of mind" these days. Noetic "science" is closer to the pseudoscience of parapsychology and other such New Age fluff as "expanding your consciousness."
==Institute of Noetic Sciences==
The Institute of Noetic Sciences is the primary outlet for this form of woo. It was co-founded by former astronaut Edgar Mitchell and billionaire and former Exxon executive Paul N. Temple, who is also associated with the fundamentalist Christian organization The Family,
According to the Institute, the core of Noetic Science is as follows:
All of which sounds more like other ways of knowing than science.
Unsurprisingly, noetic science has come under criticism from skeptics and actual scientists, and the organization Quackwatch has placed the Institute of Noetic Science on the "questionable organizations" list.Quackwatch — Questionable Organizations
===Global Consciousness Project===
The Global Consciousness Project (GCP) is more or less the PEAR project applied on a global scale. The idea is that random number generators (RNG) run by GCP will be affected by the focused attention of many people or high emotions from a worldwide event (i.e., the alleged "global consciousness"). This essentially boils down to running a whole bunch of RNGs, waiting for a spurious, statistically significant result, and then claiming to have successfully detected a "great disturbance in The Force."Global Consciousness in The Skeptic's DictionaryGCP: An Independent Analysis of the 11 September 2001 events, Edwin C. May and James P. Spottiswoode
The project also has a bias of trying to prove that paranormal experiences are true.
==Impact of The Lost Symbol==
Following the publication of Dan Brown's book promoting noetic woo the institute has reported a twelve-fold increase in traffic to its web site and an increase in new members,NPR - Woman Reads Dan Brown Novel, Discovers Herself indicating that at least some people take Brown's work seriously.

Non sequitur (français)

La locution latine non sequitur (signifiant qui ne suit pas) désigne des raisonnements fallacieux dont la conclusion n'est pas valide du fait des prémisses. La conclusion n'est pas forcément fausse, mais elle ne saurait être prouvée par l'argumentation qui est faite.
==Formes==
Le Non sequitur peut prendre de nombreuses formes :
===Affirmation du conséquent===
A implique B
or B
donc A
===Post hoc ergo propter hoc (ceci avant cela donc ceci cause cela)===
A puis B donc A implique B
===Argumentum ad verecundiam (appel à l'autorité)===
A affirme B
A fait autorité dans le domaine (et il y a consensus), donc B
(remarque : l'ad verecundiam suivant A affirme B, A fait autorité dans le domaine et il y a consensus sur la question donc B probablement vrai n'est pas non sequitur)
l'ad populum (appel au peuple), l'ad antiquitatem (appel à la tradition), l'appel à la nature... sont des cas particuliers d'appel à l'autorité.
===Argumentum ad hominem===
A affirme B
A a commis des actions qui le rende peu fiable
donc B faux
====Tu quoque (accusation d'hypocrisie)====
Ad hominem particulier de forme :
A critique B négativement
Or A fait B
donc critique par A de B fausse
==Exemples==
*Je suis un éléphant donc la terre est carrée.
*Albert Einstein a défendue la théorie de la relativité générale, donc cette théorie est vraie.
*De tout temps, les peuples ont cru en dieu, ce qui prouve son existence.

Nordisk Styrka

Nordisk Styrka (English: Nordic Strength) is an extreme right-wing neo-Nazi paramilitary group in the Nordic region with membership in Norway and Sweden. It was founded in August 2019 by members of the Nordic Resistance Movement after an internal split and discontent over poor election results.Arbetaren; August 14, 2019: NMR split - Klas Lund forms new Nazi group
==Background==
The Swedish Nordic Resistance Movement was founded in 1997 by and other members of the Swedish and other neo-Nazi groups. The organization expanded over time into the Nordic Resistance Movement, a revolutionary National Socialist group opposed to democracy and modern values.
The NMR and its members have been responsible for numerous acts of violence, attacks on protesters, and promotion of hate speech. Notably the NMR attacked people at a in 2013. The NMR was considered the neo-Nazi group that posed the greatest threat to Sweden's internal security following this incident.
In 2015 the leader of the Swedish branch of the NMR Klas Lund stepped down in 2015, and was replaced by Simon Lindberg, former National Socialist Front member. This was the start of an ideological split in the group. Klas Lund believes in an elitist paramilitary group, and Simon Lindberg believes in a softer approach that has more mass appeal.
In 2019 the NMR ran for parliamentary elections and in Ludvika, Boden and Kungälv municipal elections. After only 0.3 per cent of the votes went to the NMR the group split with Klas Lund forming a new organisation, the Nordisk Styrka.
This was followed by infighting between Swedish neo-Nazis, with Klas Lund accusing the NMR of being "liberalized" and "de-radicalized", and the NMR accusing Nordisk Styrka of being "an extreme group" and "particularly violent", both groups have denied the claims made by each other.
==Membership==
The organisation was formed by members of the Nordic Resistance Movement as a splinter group intended to be more action oriented than the NMR. The leader is the former leader of the Svenska motståndsrörelsen NMR branch, Klas Lund, who is considered to be one of Sweden's most dangerous neo-Nazi activists since the 1990s.Aftonbladet; November 30, 1999: They want to overthrow democracy He was once convicted of manslaughter for which he served a four-year prison sentence.Expressen; December 21, 2013: Gun-Britt's son fell victim to the Nazi violence Other founding members included Anders Rydberg, Emil Hagberg, and Haakon Forwald.Expressen; August 15, 2019: Oro för mer våld efter nazisternas splittring

Norman Macbeth

Norman Macbeth is a Harvard-trained lawyer who became known for his criticism of the neo-Darwinian synthesis.
==Background==
Born and raised in Los Angeles, he received his B.A. from Stanford University and his J.D. from Harvard Law School. He later moved to Vermont. Macbeth is an and has translated some German writings of Rudolf Steiner and others into English. 
==Anti-Darwinism==
Macbeth is known for his books and publications on anti-Darwinism. He is not anti-evolution he is only opposed to the Darwinian mechanisms of evolution. He also has advocated non-Darwinian evolution. In his book Darwin Retried (1971) he wrote that classical Darwinism is dead in evolutionary biology but that no one had informed the public about it. He has also criticised the neo-Darwinian synthetic theory of evolution.
Macbeth is most well known for claiming natural selection is a tautology.Review of Darwin Retried Karl Popper had supported the arguments of Macbeth against Darwinism. 
==Reception==
Macbeth is not a biologist so some scientists dismissed his argumentsEvolving thoughts article however some of the arguments of Macbeth about natural selection did cause a controversy amongst some scientists.R. H. Brady Dogma and Doubt In a review in the NewScientist wrote that Macbeth had highlighted some instances when Simpson, and contradicted one another or themselves, but that most of his arguments were nonsense and that Macbeth never made it clear if he is attacking classical Darwinism or the neo-Darwinian synthesis as he seems to confuse the two together.New Scientist 22 Aug 1974 p. 476
===Creationist quote mining===
Macbeth makes it clear in his books and publications he is not anti-evolution and that evolution is a fact however religious creationists ignore this and quote mine his works in an attempt to make out evolution is falling apart. Where Macbeth has written "Darwinism" is dead or wrong, creationists usually replace the word Darwinism with evolution.Link Macbeth's criticism of natural selection is also a favourite of the creationists.Darwin's Sacred Imposter: Natural Selection's Idolatrous Trap by Randy J. Guliuzza Creationists usually quote mine and spam quotes from Macbeth onto internet forums, unfortunately because of this some users involved in debates against creationists then become under the impression that Macbeth is a creationist himself.Topix Forum

Norman Tebbit

right|thumb|165px|Big flappy hands.
Norman Tebbit is a British former Conservative politician. He was known as 'The Chingford Skinhead' (from one of the constituencies he represented), and he was represented as such on the satirical television puppet show Spitting Image.Tebbit on Spitting Image
== Politics ==
Tebbit was a staunch supporter of Margaret Thatcher and promoter of right-wing (UK flavour) views. The sometime RAF and then civil pilot once advised the jobless to 'get on a bike' and find work. Why bikes?Because his dad rode one to look for work in the 1930s, that's why.
Once viewed as a strong contender to replace Thatcher when the time came, Tebbit sustained injuries in 1984 during the Provisional Irish Republican Army's bombing of the Grand Hotel in Brighton, where the Conservative Party Conference was taking place. His wife was left permanently disabled as a result of the explosion. He subsequently stepped down from his cabinet position after the 1987 general election to devote more time to caring for her.
He stood down as an MP at the 1992 general election, and was granted a life peerage, becoming Baron Tebbit of Chingford. He used his position to reiterate his often controversial views on the EU, immigration and assimilation that he had espoused as an MP.Lord Tebbit accuses peers of 'thinking of nothing but the rights of foreigners' during Brexit debate The Independent, March 1, 2017 He retired from the House of Lords in 2022.
== Curious notions ==
Tebbit is occasionally in the news for expressing bizarre views on immigration. According to him, immigrants are insufficiently integrated if they support the cricket team of their country of origin (does he not know you never, ever change your sports team?). An even weirder proposition is that immigrants should be asked to state which side their ancestors were on in the Second World War.Another Norman Tebbit immigration test? This time it’s war So, presumably, Ukrainian vegetable pickers are A-OK, but German investment bankers can sod off, in his view. And people from Italy, which switched sides in 1943, would have to stay outside the UK for the first half of their contract.
Unsurprisingly, Norm is not much of a fan of LGBT rights. In response to the British Government's Civil Partnership Act he warned it might mean a lesbian queen could give birth to a future monarch by artificial insemination and said that the legislation could allow him to marry his own son to escape inheritance tax. Yes, really, he did say that.Lord Tebbit: "Maybe I'd be allowed to marry my son"
