Billionaire industrialist David H. Koch, who with his older brother Charles was both celebrated and demonized for transforming American politics by pouring their riches into conservative causes, died Friday at 79.
The cause of death was not disclosed, but Koch Industries said Koch, who lived in New York City, had contended for years with various illnesses, including prostate cancer.

Pascal's wager assumes God is good. I see no evidence of that. If he existed, I would love to point out all the hypocrisy he's engaged in over the ages, as well as actions that are as bad as anything any human being has ever done.
Love isn't conditional, but it's that way with Christianity - love Jeebus or go to hell. I treat my dogs with more respect than that.
SoylentNews is social media. Says so right in the slogan. Soylentnews is people, not tech.

A jew, a holocaust survivor who managed to live to be an old man, dies and goes to heaven.
He meets God, and tells God a joke about something that happened while he was in a concentration camp.
God replies, "That's not funny."
The Jewish man says, "I guess you had to be there."
