'''Gamal Abdel Nasser''' {{lived|1918|1970}}, born in Bakos, Alexandria, was an Egyptian military officer and the second [[Dictator|president]] of [[Egypt]] from 1956 to 1970 (and [[Syria]] {{wpl | United Arab Republic|from 1958 to 1961}}), and is generally considered the man who modernized Egypt. The Suez Crisis occurred during his presidency, and he established friendly relations with the [[Soviet Union]] after a series of diplomatic setbacks with the [[United States]]. That being said, he was also an opponent of [[communism]] in addition to [[democracy]]. Despite his [[socialism|socialist]] economic policies, he persecuted [[atheist]]s and [[Marxist]]s.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Abdel-Malek |first=A. |date=1964-03-19 |title=Nasserism And Socialism |url=https://socialistregister.com/index.php/srv/article/view/5927 |journal=Socialist Register |language=en |volume=1 |issn=0081-0606}}</ref>

In 1954, there was a serious attempt on his life by a member of [[Muslim Brotherhood]]. Following this, Nasser cracked down on the organization and staged a coup, putting President Mohamed Naguib under house arrest and assuming executive office in 1956. In 1966, [[Sayyid_Qutb|Sayyid Qutb]] was convicted of plotting the assassination of Gamal Abdel Nasser and was executed by hanging.

==Nasserism==
Nasser was a believer in [[pan-Arabism]] and his political ideology is known as Nasserism. Nasserism was a mixture of [[Arab nationalism]] and socialism, but it was different from Soviet and [[West]]ern concept of socialism. The fundamental characteristics of Nasserism are:

*Arab nationalism and pan-Arabism
*Opposition to Western [[imperialism]]
*Opposition to atheism and Marxism
*[[Secularism]]
*Socialist economics
*Modernization
*Industrialization
*A belief that [[Zionism]] is an extension of European colonialism

Gambit

A '''gambit''' is something that is calculated to gain a later advantage given an initial risk. In logic, a gambit is a [[fallacy]] based on a false premise. In other words, it is taking the risk of lying in the beginning in order to win the argument.

==Types of gambits we cover==
{{fork}}
*[[Galileo gambit]] &mdash; if your ideas provoke the establishment to vilify or threaten you, you must be right
*[[Just a theory]] &mdash; relies on lying about the meaning of "theory" in order to discredit the theory. It is usually used against the [[theory of evolution]] by [[creationists]].
*[[Pathos gambit]] &mdash; one debater falsely claims that their opponent is using [[Emotional appeal|emotional arguments]] rather than factual arguments
*[[Science was wrong before]]
*[[Semmelweis gambit]] &mdash; a synonym of the Galileo gambit that is used in [[alternative medicine]]
*[[Shill gambit]] &mdash; one party dismisses the other's arguments by proclaiming them to be on the payroll of some agency

Gary Schwartz

{{Psychic|1}}
'''Gary E. Schwartz''' is a [[medium]] and professor of [[psychology]] at the University of Arizona and the Director of its Laboratory for Advances in Consciousness and Health. He is also a [[parapsychologist]].

==Biography==
He received a Ph.D. in psychology from Harvard University in 1971 and was an assistant professor at Harvard for five years. He later served as a professor of psychology and psychiatry at Yale University, was director of the Yale Psychophysiology Center, and co-director of the Yale Behavioral Medicine Clinic, before moving to [[Arizona]] in 1988. He works at the Center for Frontier Medicine in Biofield Science at the University of Arizona, which he directed for four years.<ref>[http://www.drgaryschwartz.com/Biography.html Biography of Gary Schwartz]</ref>

==Criticism==
Schwartz is well known for his book ''The Afterlife Experiments: Breakthrough Scientific Evidence of Life After Death'' (2003), cowritten with William Simon and [[Deepak Chopra]]. The experiments described in the book have received criticism from the scientific community for being inadequately designed and using poor controls.<ref>[http://www.skepdic.com/refuge/afterlife.html Book Review by Robert T. Carroll]</ref>

==Allegations of fraud==
Schwartz claims to be a [[medium]]. In one case he claimed to contact the [[spirit]] of a 25-year old man in the bathroom of his parents' house and it was alleged he attempted to charge the family 3.5 million dollars for his mediumship services. The allegations were featured on [[Fox News]].<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20131227084424/http://tviscool.com/play.php?vid=294 Geraldo Exposes Gary Schwartz]</ref>

Gas-saving magnets

{{pseudosciencenav}}
'''Gas-saving magnets''' are devices installed on the fuel line line of automobiles that purport to reduce fuel consumption by using a "Neodymium Rare Earth Magnet" for "splitting the hydrocarbon chain into smaller components with their subsequent ionization, which in turn leads to more complete combustion of [[Fossil fuel|gasoline or diesel fuel]]".<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080310021824/http://www.fuelmax.lv/info.php?lang=eng Official] Super Fuel Max page.</ref> In other words, pure [[Automobile#Car woo|automotive woo]].

Supposedly, these ultra-powerful magnets allow the "hydrocarbon clusters" to more easily vaporize. Though anyone with basically a high-school education in [[chemistry]] and [[physics]] should know that this is utter [[bullshit|nonsense]], they are nonetheless sold in the [[US]] for around $30 and claim to improve fuel-efficiency by 20%, so you can't afford ''not'' to buy one.

In 2004, the FTC brought charges against one magnet manufacturer, FuelMax, which eventually settled for 4.2 million US [[United States dollar|smackaroons]],<ref>[http://www.ftc.gov/news-events/press-releases/2001/11/super-fuelmax-marketers-settle-ftc-charges Super FuelMAX Marketers Settle FTC Charges]. Federal Trade Commission. 2001 November 8.</ref> though the devices are now available to the general public through a totally different company, FuelMag.

Gatekeeping

{{languagenav}}
'''Gatekeeping''' is a term used to describe someone who is deciding on either the introduction of information to a particular body of knowledge or someone deciding on if somebody is a "real" fan of something, or even to restrict access to services. Sometimes the term is used more broadly, referring to any sort of superficial [[credentialism]] or stupid tests to deem someone "worthy" of discussing a topic.

==The good==
Gatekeeping when used to scrutinize knowledge is perfectly acceptable for the [[scientific]] community when done in an objective way. For example, gatekeeping can keep badly-conducted science out of journals and financially/politically motivated science out of the general body.

==The bad==
On the other hand, in personal discourse, this can be as simple as someone saying "You're not a real fan of this!" based on knowledge of trivia.

Gatekeeping can happen when [[transgender]] people seek medical treatment to transition properly, but their doctor refuses to refer them to a specialist.

Gates of Vienna

{{Islamophobia}}{{internet}}
{{Sources needed}}
'''Gates of Vienna''' is an [[Islamophobia|Islamophobic]] blog originally begun on Blogspot in January 2003. It is run from Virginia by Edward (Ned) May, but often hosts European proponents of the [[Eurabia]] [[conspiracy theory]], including [[Fjordman]] from Norway, the ideological inspiration for the far-right terrorist [[Anders Behring Breivik]].<ref>http://www.splcenter.org/blog/2011/10/25/blogger-who-inspired-norwegian-terrorist-returns-to-writing/</ref> Other European contributors include "El Inglés", and "Seneca III" who seem to live in [[Spain]]. The blog played a major role in introducing the Eurabia theory to a US far-right public. It moved to self-hosting in January 2013 after being taken down twice by Blogger due to its extreme and racist content.

The title is a reference to the Ottoman siege of Vienna<ref>[http://www.thenagain.info/webchron/easteurope/ViennaSiege.html Siege of Vienna: 1683]</ref> which was lifted by an alliance of European Christian states. Opponents of Islam consider it a defining moment for the identity of [[Europe]] and the West, although, in fact, western European powers disdained to assist the Austrians, leaving the forces of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth to do most of the heavy lifting.<ref group="notes">The Sun King, France's Louis XIV, was too busy snatching up the Holy Roman Imperial province of Alsace (yes, the same that was snatched from France in 1871 and regained by France in 1918). The rest of the European powers were too distant to provide assistance to what was a completely unexpected Ottoman attack; as the siege lasted for only two months, a lightning campaign by the standards of the day, few but the French would have been able to join the fray in time.</ref>

Gateway religion

{{Religion}}
'''Gateway religion''' is the idea that moderate or liberal religions (and sects within religions) ultimately act as a "gateway" to [[Fundamentalism|irrational]] [[Religious Right|thinking]], regardless of how palatable their politics may be. It's mostly used by [[antitheism|antitheists]] (notably [[Richard Dawkins]] in ''[[The God Delusion]]'') to argue against the acceptance of ''any'' religion.

The evidence for this being a real effect is varying, relying almost entirely on [[Anecdotal evidence|anecdotes]] — some assert the opposite, that people tend to flip between extremism or fundamentalism and [[atheism]], completely skipping the moderate step in between. Other assertions are that the existence and tolerance of moderate religious belief acts as a gateway that allows extremism to be routinely tolerated.

Gay Shame

{{sex}}
'''Gay Shame''' is a self-described [[direct action]] movement that seeks "nothing less than a new [[queer]] activism that foregrounds [[race]], [[social class|class]], [[gender]] and [[sex]]uality, to counter the self-serving 'values' of [[homosexuality|gay]] consumerism and the increasingly hypocritical left." 

In other words, these folks see mainstream [[gay rights]] activism as being too [[bourgeois]] and [[liberal]] in nature; instead of working for a greater inclusion of queer people in contemporary society, Gay Shame wants to fundamentally change that society. 

As of 21 June 2021, their website seems to have been replaced with a Japanese Porn page.

==Positions==

* Supports [[anti-psychiatry]].<ref>[http://gayshamesf.org/againstpsychiatry.html "AgainstPsychiatry!"],  Gay Shame, 2007 August.</ref>
* Opposes [[marriage]] in any form, including [[same sex marriage]].The Gay Shame movement believe that marriage supports a traditional heterosexual world image and that assimilation into this institution perpetuates erasure of homosexual culture.<ref>[http://gayshamesf.org/endmarriage.html "Gay Shame Opposes Marriage in Any Form"],  Gay Shame.</ref>
* Opposes what they call the "non-profit industrial complex" of [[LGBT]] groups, for having an "[[authoritarian]] and ageist structure that gives power to older, largely male LGBT people" while exploiting and claiming to speak for youth,<ref>[http://gayshamesf.org/yesummaybeumno.html "Gay Shame Says No to YES"],  Gay Shame.</ref> careerism and professionalism,<ref>R Conrad, [http://gayshamesf.org/creatingchainszinereprint.html "Creating Change or Creating Chains? A Fierce Look at the Non-Profit Industrial Complex"],  Gay Shame, 2010 July 23.</ref> and promoting "gentrification" such as gay business districts.<ref>Inez, et al. [http://gayshamesf.org/gaybid.html "Critique of Authoritarianism in the Anti-Gentro Gay BID Campaign"], Gay Shame, 2005 January 22.</ref>
*Should not support gay pride when it is used to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homonationalism mask less progressive policies].
*Believes gay pride is based on stereotypes and caricatures. This often implies highly sexualised behaviour with many within the gay community being categorized into 'tribes' whereby their identity is reduced to sexual appeal. This can lead to unhealthy body image amongst LGBT youth.

Gay sex

{{sex}}
'''Gay sex''' is [[Homosexuality|man-love]] or [[Lesbianism|woman-love]], which can manifest itself as intimate contact between the genitalia of members of the same [[sex]]. Social conservatives and those who take their religious [[dogma]] too seriously don't particularly like it. No one is quite sure why they're so opposed to it, but "it's icky" is the most likely candidate.

==Analysis==
Using the definition of "sex" as being the act of inserting a penis into a vagina for reproduction purposes, gay sex can be considered physically impossible and non-existent. Thus, the conservative fears are in fact misplaced since homosexuals never did and never could engage in such a thing. Furthermore, this makes homosexuals some of the most aggressive [[abstinence]] followers in existence.

===How to do it right===
While most [[safe sex|safer sex]] recommendations for heterosexuals also apply for their homosexual counterparts, sex education experts also emphasize the following points for [[men who have sex with men]] and women who have sex with women to avoid [[sexually transmitted disease|sexually transmitted infections]] (STIs):
*Avoid direct contact with a partner’s bodily fluids (blood, semen) or with any visible genital lesions.
*Cover sex toys that penetrate more than one person's vagina or anus with a new [[condom]] for each person; consider using different toys for each person.
*Use a barrier (e.g., latex sheet, dental dam, cut-open condom, plastic wrap) during oral sex.
*Use latex or vinyl gloves and lubricant for any manual sex that might cause bleeding.<ref name=mravack>Mravack, Sally A. (July 2006)."Primary Care for Lesbians and Bisexual Women", ''American Family Physician'' '''74''' (2) p. 279–286.</ref><ref>Men Like Us: The GMHC Complete Guide to Gay Men's Sexual, Physical, and Emotional Well-being; Wolfe, Daniel; Gay Men's Health Crisis, Inc; Published by Ballantine Books, 2000. {{isbn|345414969}}.</ref>
*Yell at your partner's genitals.{{nofact}}

On the other hand, researchers have discovered those who engage in unprotected sex absorb the anti-depressants in their partner’s semen, and are less depressed.{{efn|[http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2190863/Semen-good-womens-health-helps-fight-depression.html Please don't take this seriously.]}}

==Pregnancy risks==
None.{{efn|{{wpl|Transgender pregnancy|Well... there are ''some'' caveats to that.}}}}

==Conservatives and evangelicals==
[[Conservatism|Conservatives]] and evangelicals usually think that gay sex is evil, sick and degenerate. Then again, conservatives and evangelicals think that ''a wide range of sexual stuff'' is evil, sick and degenerate, for example [[Ray Comfort]] openly said a man should avoid looking with lust at his own woman (his wife), see [[Exhibitionism and voyeurism#Christianity|Exhibitionism and voyeurism in Christianity]].

GcMAF

{{altmed}}
'''GcMAF''' (Gc protein-derived macrophage activating factor) is a blood-product which proponents claim can cure [[Cancer woo|cancer]], [[HIV]], [[autism]] and [[chronic fatigue syndrome]].<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GcMAF</ref><ref name=bbc1>http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-34326801</ref> Cancer Research UK have described it as "scientifically extremely dubious".<ref>http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-37654666</ref>

Taking an injectable blood-product of unknown source is ''particularly'' dangerous, as it could provide route for serious/deadly infectious diseases. The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) raided an "Immuno Biotech" factory in Cambridgeshire, [[England]] and found it was being made from blood plasma labelled ''"Not to be administered to humans or used in any drug products"''.<ref>https://www.gov.uk/government/news/regulator-warns-against-gcmaf-made-in-unlicensed-facility-in-cambridgeshire</ref> Subsequently the CEO of Immuno Biotech, David Noakes, received a jail-sentence for ''"supplying and selling an unlicensed medicine"'' and ''"money laundering".'' <ref>https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-guernsey-46359949</ref>

James Jeffrey Bradstreet, a [[US]] doctor who sold this as an autism cure committed [[suicide]] three days after being searched by the US authorities over this stuff.

Gehenna

{{judaism}}
'''Gehenna''' (or '''Gehinnom''') is the name of [[Judaism]]'s equivalent to [[purgatory]]. It is a place of punishment for the wicked, though it is usually believed that said punishment lasts for a year only.

==History==
===As a place of sacrifice===
The name Gehinnom was originally attached to a literal place outside [[Jerusalem]]. Prior to the reign of Josiah, the valley was allegedly the site of [[human sacrifice|child sacrifices]] by fire, comparable to those unearthed at Carthage. During his reign, the temple at which these sacrifices took place was destroyed.<ref>{{bible|Jeremiah|7|31|32}}, {{bible|2 Kings|23|10}}</ref>

According to [[Christian]] traditions, the location then held a continuously burning heap of rubbish, leading to the conception of [[hell]] as fiery.

===As a punishment in the afterlife===
In [[Rabbi]]nic Judaism, the name Gehinnom is used for a purgatory-like place of atonement for [[sin]]s. [[Soul]]s enter it after their [[death]], and spend upwards of a year there. For those who believe gilgul neshamot, the soul would then be [[Reincarnation|reincarnated]]. Afterwards, when the prophecy of resurrection is fulfilled, they either ascend to ''olam ha-ba'', the world to come, if righteous, or turn to ashes if not. The exceptions are ''really'' bad sinners, who just stay there forever.{{cn}}

In Christian texts, the term Gehenna is used to reference boring old [[Hell]].
