When one considers ants, bees, termites, and wasps . . . even insects show altruism. It may only be a pre-programmed, hard-wired behavior, but it’s still altruism.
This raises a question about even more primative forms of altruism.
The Portuguese Man O War is a siphonophore, which means that it is a colony of separate organisms that work together as a single animal.
Can the relationship between each discrete member of this colonial organism be described as altruistic? Or is that a reach?

Yeah but your supreme court is not only right-wing, Christian biased it has no jurisdiction over the rest the world (thank whatever gods don’t exist).

Yes, they made gun ownership a basic right . . . but they were also enlightened and reasonable, and I don’t think that they would see a musket and an AR-15 as the same thing.
If you guys want to hear something really, really disturbing, keep in mind that flamethrowers are not considered firearms under the law. Please see below:
I can buy a flamethrower an hour after I escape from the mental institution, and I don’t even have to fill out any paperwork or background checks.
I can also buy napalm mix, which thickens the gasoline and makes it sticky . . . so it adheres to the target. Please see below:
See below for a comparison of different mixtures from the company’s advertising material:
All legal, no paperwork, no background check, and it actually isn’t subject to the “Red Flag” laws because it’s not a gun.
Sometimes, I really don’t like my fellow Americans. I think it’s only a matter of time before some crazy maniac uses this thing to do something utterly horrific. And the law is not allowed to be proactive in banning this thing . . . yet we have to go all out to protect children from drag queens.

Napalm and flame throw the drag queens before they infect the children! Look at the homeless in San Francisco. And the earthquakes and other acts of god to punish the city of sin. I’m just say’in, when the Christians are right, they are right. All the evidence is there. Well, some of the evidence is there. Well, there are rumors of evidence… Oh, just accept it on faith. Faith is the evidence.

If faith is good enough for science, it should be good enough for us.

Oh! Oh! Oh! I know this one! The cat is dead! It ran out of food, air, and water, while we were all discussing it. If someone had let it out, there would be nothing to discuss, and we would all know the answer to the question. It’s definitely dead.

Hahaha…well it just goes to show how little you know…there never was a cat, or a box, or a discussion. There was only your drug-induced delusional foray into cognociousness…
Now, the cogglomeration of over-ripe bananas combined with Tin’s high octane egg nog, garnished with Korean caterpillars, may have
resulted in a previously unknown hallucinogen.
I suggest you try a larger serving just to be sure…

If there is no cat, explain the absence of the Meowing sounds. Obviously if there was a cat because we can’t hear it anymore. You can’t prove there is no cat. The fact that the cat is dead is the only logical reason for the absence of the meowing sounds. If there was no cat, no one would mention it.

Clearly you are still under the effects of the aforementioned substance(s).
From your wildly distorted view of reality, the fact of my recent mention of visible, multi-coloured, giraffe farts demonstrates their existence.
Now you may say, “I meant metaphysical existence”…but of course that would be a classic example of the “reverse peddling unicycle wildlife fallacy”…

Listen up! All this talk about the damn cat is fascinating, I’m sure. 
But why the hell isn’t anybody concerned about the DOG that was with the cat? Oh, wait… Or was it NOT with the cat? 
Well, either way, the subjective theoretical fact remains that we STILL don’t know whether or not the confined canine was drooling before or after the bell rang. Or, was the poor pooch even drooling at all? After being encased with the fickle feline for so long (IF he was actually ever there in the first place.), the panting pup could have become severely dehydrated. But does anybody here care? Hmph! 
Obviously NOT!
