Frank Tipler

{{crenav|1}}
'''Frank Jennings Tipler''' {{lived|1947|}} is an [[United States|American]] mathematical [[physicist]] and [[cosmology|cosmologist]].

==Biography==

He has been described as a good scientist turned crackpot. In his early career Tipler published some technical work on general relativity, which was well received by the scientific community. However since then he has published eccentric pseudoscientific books and other materials on [[global warming denialism]], [[intelligent design]] and Christianity in an attempt to scientifically prove the existence of God, replete with that hallowed hallmark of [[crank]]ery, the [[Galileo gambit]].<ref>[http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/cosmicvariance/2009/01/05/the-varieties-of-crackpot-experience The Varieties of Crackpot Experience by Sean Carroll]</ref> [[William Lane Craig]] loves to cite ''The Anthropic Cosmological Principle'', which Tipler co-authored with subsequent [[Templeton Prize]] winner {{wpl|John D. Barrow|John D. Barrow,}} in his [[argument from design]].<ref>[http://www.reasonablefaith.org/search/results?q=Tipler Search for "Tipler" on Craig's website.] For instance, Craig has specifically cited Barrow & Tipler in his debates with [[Massimo Pigliucci]] and [[Lawrence Krauss]] (as seen [http://www.reasonablefaith.org/does-god-exist-the-craig-pigliucci-debate#section_5 here] and [http://www.reasonablefaith.org/life-the-universe-and-nothing-has-science-buried-god#section_5 here]).

{{sources needed}}

'''Franciscus Bernardus Maria "Frans" de Waal''' {{lived|1948}} is a [[Netherlands|Dutch]] primatologist and ethologist known for his studies on [[chimpanzee]]s and [[bonobo]]s.  

In 1975, de Waal began a six-year study of chimpanzees in the Arnhem Zoo.  These studies resulted in the 1982 publication of his first book, ''Chimpanzee Politics''.  In it, de Waal coins the phrase "[[Niccolo Machiavelli|Machiavellian]] [[intelligence]]", based on his observations that chimpanzees sometimes sought to deceive their neighbors and jockeyed for respect and resources.  Chimpanzees, his work suggested, had inner emotional lives that resembled those of humans.  ''Chimpanzee Politics'' was reissued in a 25th anniversary edition in 2007.  

His studies in observation of [[mammal]]s have led to conclusions that suggest that emotion, empathy and [[altruism]] are evolutionary constructs.  The [[taboo]] of recognizing human emotions as anything but irrational, he asserts, denies greater understanding of [[humanity]], [[evolution]], [[morality]] and social behaviors of humans and non-human animals alike.  Despite this rather "feel-good" interpretation of mammalian behavior, his work is receiving attention from his peers.

François Hollande (français)

{{hatnote|This is a French translation of [[François Hollande]].}}
{{sources needed}}
[[File:François Hollande Journées de Nantes.jpg|right|thumb|165px|François Hollande en 2012.]]{{FrenchPolitics fr}}
'''François Hollande''' {{lived|1954|}} deviens le président de la France, après être entré en fonction le 15 mai de 2012. Il est membre du parti socialiste, quoiqu'il pourrait être décrit comme un disciple de la Troisième Voie. Il lui manque cependant le charisme général de n'importe quel défenseur majeur de la Troisième Voie, et d'après ses sondages épouvantables, tout le monde de la gauche (de la gauche normale à la gauche radicale) à la droite ne l'aiment pas. 

==Politique liée à la science==
Hollande a un agenda pro-science. Il considère le réchauffement climatique comme un problème important, et veut un accord global pour réduire les émissions de carbone. Il a aussi le désir de supporter les énergies renouvelables. Cependant, son administration n'a pas fait grand chose en termes de politique pour réduire les émissions de CO2, peut-être à cause de préoccupations économiques. Il veut aussi réduire la place de l'énergie nucléaire de 20% pour la remplacer avec des énergies renouvelables. 

==Politique sociale==
Malgré les protestations des conservateurs, Hollande a légalisé le mariage homosexuel le novembre 2012.

==Politique économique==
Hollande a une politique économique très mixée : il a fait passé une réforme du Code du Travail qui rend plus facile le licenciement des salariés. Il voulait aussi baisser les taxes des entreprises et a déclarer adopter des mesures d'austérité, dans sa croyance en la baisse du budget et des taxes, disant que l'offre créé la demande. Il a cependant baissé l'âge de la retraite de 62 à 60 ans (pour les personnes ayant commencé à travailler jeune, la reforme ne touche environ qu'un retraité sur quatre), a essayé de monter les impôts à 75% pour ceux qui gagnent plus de 1,000,000 euros et a exprimé son désir de créer 500,000 maison publiques par an. Tout le monde a donc trouvé une raison de le détester, en plus du lent rétablissement de l'économie.

Fred Karger

[[File:Fred_Karger_2010.jpg|upright|left|thumb|Freddy]]{{USpolitics|1}}
'''Fred Karger''' (b. 1950) was a campaign consultant for [[Ronald Reagan]], [[George H. W. Bush]], and [[Gerald Ford]]. He also was responsible for the ads that ruined Michael Dukakis's run for president in 1988. Then, he came out the closet. That's right, he is a [[gay]] [[Republican]]. Karger ran for president in 2012.<ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/feb/13/republicans-gay-rights-presidential-race The Guardian]</ref> He withdrew 29 June 2012.<ref>[http://www.slate.com/blogs/weigel/2012/06/29/the_gay_republican_presidential_candidate_whom_you_never_heard_of_calls_it_quits.html Slate:The Gay Republican Presidential Candidate (Whom You Never Heard of) Calls it Quits]</ref>

==What?==
Yes, that's right, Karger is the first openly gay presidential candidate from a major party in US history. Karger is anti-DADT, supports repealing DOMA, wants to lower the voting age to 16, and supports "immigration reform". He also wants to make [[same sex marriage]] the "law of the land". He really <i>really</i> doesn't care for the [[Mormonism|Mormons]], especially after the [[California Proposition 8|''Proposition 8'']] debacle.<ref>[http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/26/us/politics/26marriage.html?_r=3&scp=1&sq=mormon%20investigation&st=cse The New York Times ]</ref> What his economic policies are is anyone's guess. He even came out on top of [[Ron Paul]] in the Puerto Rico primary.<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/ron-paul-topped-ran-fred-karger-puerto-rican-153210979.html]</ref>

In the '90's Karger worked for the tobacco industry to prevent [[smoking]] bans. <ref>Zak, Dan (2011-02-02). "Crashing the party: Republican strategist turned gay rights activist ponders a White House run". The Washington Post.</ref>

Fred Nile

{{politics}}
'''Fred Nile''' {{lived|15<sup>th</sup> September 1934}} is an [[Australia]]n religious bigot, clergyman, prescription-strength wowser, and politician. He has served as a member of the New South Wales Legislative Council<ref>http://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/prod/parlment/members.nsf/0/C85947F5A79AD5554A25672E0002E1C9</ref> since 1981, styling himself as "Leader" of the [[Christian Democrat Party (The Fred Nile Group)| Christian Democratic Party (CDP)]] which was known originally as Call To Australia (CTA).

==Political views==
Fred is best known for his militantly [[homophobic]] views in token whereof he and his league of the professionally offended routinely protest against the Sydney Gay and [[Lesbian]] Mardi Gras, an event he earnestly believes is the greatest moral threat facing humankind. In addition to disliking [[Gays|poofters]] he also has issues with [[Islam|Muslims]], [[Abortion|women having control over their fertility]], [[Paganism|pagans]] and [[Environmentalism|environmentalists]].<ref>http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/the-power-of-one/2008/01/04/1198950075839.html</ref>

==Scandals==
In 2010 he was swept up in a [[pornography]] scandal when it was claimed that his NSW Parliament IT account was used to register more than 200,000 hits on pornographic websites.<ref>http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/national/christian-mp-fred-nile-engulfed-in-net-porn-scandal/story-e6frf7l6-1225913110721</ref> Disappointingly, subsequent inquiries found no hard evidence to support this claim.<ref>http://www.smh.com.au/national/reverend-denial--employee-link-to-porn-leak-20100902-14rpo.html</ref>

Free Talk Live

{{media}}
'''Free Talk Live''' is a [[radio]] program originating from Keene, [[New Hampshire]], U.S. which is carred on many [[talk radio]] stations in the U.S. or can be heard over streaming audio. The show features a rotating lineup of several program hosts who espouse a radical variant of [[libertarianism]] best described as voluntaryist which tends to shade over into [[anarchism]].  The hosts are especially enthusiastic about [[Bitcoin]], the [[Free State Project]], the anti-[[police abuse]] group [[CopBlock]], and ongoing [[civil disobedience]] activism in the college town of Keene around various issues including [[marijuana]], public [[nudity]], and [[jury nullification]].  Whether this viewpoint could be considered left-wing or right-wing is a matter of debate and probably of personal preference.  The hosts claim they are neither left-wing nor right-wing, but "pro-freedom, on every issue, all the time".

The show is refreshingly free of the usual [[Alex Jones]]-style [[conspiracy theories]] and the "patriotic" Constitutionalist/militia/flag waving stuff one might expect to hear on a show of this sort.  In fact the hosts are rather skeptical toward conspiracy theories and anything smacking of [[nationalism]] or [[American exceptionalism]].  Well, not always; they have had [[Gene Ray]] on the show at least twice to discuss at his [[Time Cube]] crankery.

They ''are'', however, hard-core [[laissez-faire]] free market advocates, so don't expect [[Marxism]], or even middle-of-the-road liberalism, to get a favorable hearing on the show.

On the whole, it provides several clues as to where [[New Left|1960s style radicalism]], or at least the closest thing to it, can be located today: take Woodstock Nation, remove the [[Maoism|Maoist]] elements, and replace them with equal parts [[Ludwig von Mises]] and [[Samuel Edward Konkin III]].  Whether the latter is a positive development is another matter for debate...

Free Zone

{{cult}}
{{sources needed}}
The '''Freezone''', also known as '''Independent Scientology''', is a term used by several individuals, organizations, and small groups which practice [[Dianetics]] and [[Scientology]] but are not part of the official Church of Scientology. Most (but not all) of them are former [[Church of Scientology]] members who either left or were kicked out in Scientology's frequent internal purges, especially since the early 1980s. The Church of Scientology's practice of declaring members "SP" on a whim ("[[suppressive person]]s," referring to somebody declared ''persona non grata'' in the organization and effectively making them non-members) led to the inevitable as many of these people continued to believe in and practice Scientology. Think of it as diet koolaid.

Freezone adherents vary. Many believe that [[L. Ron Hubbard]]'s writings are infallible, and they believe the current Church of Scientology has strayed from Hubbard's teachings. Thus, Freezone can be a form of [[fundamentalism|fundamentalist]] Scientology. Others' beliefs are not so fundamentalist, in that they believe Scientology is valid but mix it with other practices, or try to glean what they see is good from Scientology while discarding other parts. Some Freezone sects even still revere their founder over L. Ron Hubbard, or in recent years, ''as'' L. Ron Hubbard. For many, especially being the case for those Freezoners never in the Church, the attraction of Freezone Scientology is simply that they recognize the Church of Scientology organization is a money-sucking [[cult]] which they wish to steer clear of, but are attracted to Scientology's teachings as opposed to the organization.

Several Freezone websites exist, and they have created their own homebrew alternatives to Scientology's "[[E-Meter]]" and a body of writings based on Scientology. These writings are free of the copyright on the original works held by the Church of Scientology, which is notoriously litigious toward those who attempt to promote Scientology outside the "Org." The Church of Scientology has its own term for the Freezoners: "squirrels". Freezone websites generally have a web page design suggestive of 1997 and split their effort between archived self-published "clearing technology" and heavy, albeit well-deserved, criticism of the current CoS leadership.

Don't be too hard on the Freezoners. Yeah, they believe in some weapons-grade [[woo]], but unlike those in the CoS, they're doing it of their own free will...presumably. [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platitude]

Frequency illusion

[[File:Cooked shrimp on a plate.jpg|thumb|right|165px|OMFG! There's ''another'' one!]]{{Psychology}}
{{Cquote|A lot of people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch of unconnected incidents and things. They don't realize that there's this, like, lattice of [[coincidence]] that lays on top of everything. Give you an example, show you what I mean: suppose you're thinkin' about a plate of shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, "plate," or "shrimp," or "plate of shrimp" out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconsciousness.|||Miller in the film ''Repo Man'' (1984)}}
The '''frequency illusion''' (also known as the '''Baader-Meinhof phenomenon''') is the phenomenon in which people who just learn or notice something start seeing it everywhere. For instance, a person who just saw a movie about [[shark]]s might start seeing the word "shark" everywhere. This is not necessarily because the person really has come across more instances of the word "shark"; rather, before seeing the movie, they usually simply passed the word over and quickly forgot it, while later, after having seen the movie, the word started sticking in their [[memory]].

Research into the perception of low probability events suggests that frequency illusions come from a combination of imaginability and the manner in which data is presented. If a rare event is presented as having a 1 in 1,000 chance of happening, that event will seem more likely than if presented as 0.1% chance of happening. Using integers to show the chances makes it easier for a person to imagine themselves facing the unusual event. Add in a little danger (would seeing the word "ant" have the same effect as "shark"?) and, voilà, frequency illusion.<ref> [http://www.psych.unito.it/csc/cogsci05/frame/talk/f231-newell.pdf Imagining Low Probability Events: Contrasting Exemplar Cuing and Frequency Format Accounts] </ref>

Freudian slip

{{Psychology}}
{{fun}}
[[Image:FreudianSlip.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Freud in a slip]]A '''Freudian slip''', also known as '''parapraxis''', is when you say one thing but mean another. It is a mistake allegedly committed by thoughts resting in the unconscious mind; it was suggested by [[Sigmund Freud]] in his 1901 book ''The Psychopathology of Everyday Life''.  A slip might occur in speech, in actions, in perception, in memory, etc. 

Common examples include calling a co-worker "honey" when someone is unconsciously thinking they are talking to their spouse, or a child calling their teacher "Mom" or "Dad".  

Freudian slips are semi-conscious, i.e. they're consciously repressed but unconsciously released.

The term is used popularly in order to humorously attribute hidden desires to the individual making the slip: saying something sexually suggestive when you meant to say something completely non-sexual is a great example.  Several [[conservative]] US politicians have slipped up in recent years using the words "colored" or "[[nigger]]" when they meant to say "Black" or "[[African American]]", suggesting a private, underlying [[racist]] worldview, long after those words have fallen out of acceptable use.
