Good to see Alvin Plantingas, Evolutionary Argument Against Naturalism, trickling into common use.

It's spelled out more in 'Warranted Christian Belief', which is one of the best books I have read.

I recently read 'The block size wars' #bookstr I side with the small block camp in seeing the need for nodes needing to be able to be run by average users and also the need for the transaction fees to cover mining costs once the block subsidy end. However, I recently read that there is not enough capacity for everyone on the planet to open and close lightning channels. Is that just FUD? Has the fee rate been modelled? What are the incentives that ensure Bitcoin block size or scaling solutions get the right balance between usability and security? Is it UASF's to lower mining revenue and competing forks?

Educational Crusade to end the FED - 'The Creature From Jekyll Island', 1994.

"7. Use politics, don't be used by it. We got into our present mess through politics and we must get out the same way; but getting out is a lot harder than getting in. The strategy, however, is simple: remove the big-spending internationalists from office and replace them with men and women dedicated to sound money and national independence. The way to remove the spenders is to expose their voting records to their constituents, most of whom have no idea how they vote on key issues. The way to get better candidates elected is to volunteer to work in their campaigns. Work within party organizations where possible but beware! Never allow loyalty to the party to override loyalty to principle. Political parties are always controlled from the top, and the major parties are controlled by the very forces we must oppose. It is imperative that you and your candidate remain independent of party control. Otherwise, your money and your effort eventually will be used against you."

"6. Expand your influence within the community. . People seldom follow strangers. Become known and respected for your knowledge. Join groups which are influential within your city or profession. Political groups are particularly important, regardless of party. Volunteer for work and seek a leadership role. Personally visit your city and county politicians and maintain ongoing communication. Send them books, articles, baseball tickets — anything to make sure they don't forget who you are. This is doubly important for political candidates. If you have the talent and the aptitude, consider running for some kind of public office yourself."

"5. Form ad-hoc committees, along with other like-minded friends, to promote specific projects and programs. Here are a few hypothetical examples covering a range of issues: The Committee for Sound Money, Parents for Better Education, Americans for Tax Relief, North-Bay Residents for Private Property. That is an excellent way to bring pressure to bear on the political structure and, at the same time, attract the support of new people who share your common objective."

"4. Form an educational study group. Give it an enticing name such as The Reality Club or The Awareness Lunch Bunch. Make the meetings interesting and short. Use local speakers, ask members to give book reviews, show videos, have mock debates, throw parties. The goal is to reach new people, not to preach to the choir."

7 reasons to abolish the Federal Reserve

• It is incapable of accomplishing its stated objectives.

• It is an instrument of totalitarianism.

"3. Join forces with others of like mind. There is strength in numbers. Three people acting alone are a force of three. When working together, however, they multiply their efforts and equal a force of nine. That is the power of organization. When choosing an organization, look for experienced and principled leadership which has proven that it understands the deeper issues and cannot be sidetracked by the Cabal."

"2. Become a pamphleteer. Develop a mailing list of friends who you think would be most receptive to learning more about these issues. Send them something every month that is informative and not too long to read. See the end of this chapter for information on how to obtain suitable publications."
