The Permian Basin is a vast sedimentary basin in West Texas and southeastern New Mexico that is the largest oil and gas-producing region in the United States.
I just got an email from “East Daley,” whose white paper Permian Basin at a Crossroads “breaks down who stands to benefit—and who’s at risk.”
I can answer these questions without even reading the white paper:
Who stands to benefit (monetarily): Greedy pigs whose investments are ruining the planet.
Who’s at risk: The eight-plus billion people on this planet who, along with their descendants, are counting on a stable climate.
Does this guy have a solid point?
Is war a bad thing? What about rape and torture?
Do they point to weaknesses that must be strengthened?
Is Bullying a Bad Thing? Not if We Want a Society of Brutality
Maybe the protestors are less concerned about length of time in office, and more with criminal authoritarianism.
I have such respect for Pascal that I considered naming our son after him. (My wife wasn’t having it. Maybe if we lived in France?)
Pascal made important contributions to both math and physics but he’s perhaps best known for his philosophic “wager,” that it makes sense to believe in God, since if He exists, you’ll be very glad you did, and if He doesn’t, you haven’t lost anything. I counter that this is not how we accept or reject religious tenets.
