I would be remiss if I did not post a patriotic thread today.

Well, Dr. Shades, that is a great question. I started this thread to avoid having a derail from this comment and to make a snarky observation that the probability of a DiscussMormonism thread being about, or mentioning, Daniel Peterson is more certain with every additional comment. I merely achieved the ultimate rule of the board in a single post.

We can call it Scratch's Law or Binger's Law or something like that. It is a ripoff of Godwin, obviously.
Binger's Law wrote:The adage asserting that as a discussion grows longer (regardless of topic or scope), the probability of a mention of Daniel C. Peterson approaches 1. Or, the longer the discussion, the more likely a Daniel C. Peterson mention becomes, and with long enough discussions, it is a certainty.

How about another law: DT's law, a law when trolls ignore statistics.

There is a discipline called Statistics.

"Stronger firearm laws in a state were associated with lower firearm suicide rates and lower overall suicide"
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5885268/

And mental health services aren't helping
"More mental health services not linked to fewer firearm suicides"
https://news.osu.edu/more-mental-health ... -suicides/

You can deny the numbers all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that we are safer with stricter gun laws. Don't get me wrong, I do like guns and Halo, but I won't deny the numbers.

Cool.

And, a safer America for you and me, is a safer America for Daniel C. Peterson.

There you go! DT's law in effect.

Question: What should you tell an idiot? Look below.

| |
| |
V

Tell him to think of a number from 1 to 10.

Next tell him to add 357 + 489 + (the number on your mind x 4) - 879 + 690 divided by the number in your mind.

The answer is 25,430.

An idiot won't be able to do the Math. Double check your work if your answer doesn't match.
