I need your help. In a recent discussion with a friend the topic of using aborted fetuses in cosmetics, food, and biotech research came up. This isn't a subject I'm well versed in. Searches have lead me through a maze of pro-life propaganda and I am fairly certain that this is a back door attempt at legislating away stem cell research. But I don't have the resources to prove this claim. Help?

Welcome to the Real World C0nc0rdance.

Get back up, don't lay down.

This is when you start to make a difference, not when to stop.

@getrealrubberseal
I haven't deleted you comment because I haven't been on YouTube for over a week. YouTube glitches all the time, and lately even more so. I've seen your criticisms, but didn't think they needed a response. I respond more to objective, factual statements backed by peer-reviewed sources than personal attacks or arguments from authority.

I'll be back soon, folks. What started as a vacation from video-making has been extended due to work and personal activities. I'll be re-launching soon, with some new media formats and changes to the existing formats. C0nc0rdanceAnswers is being "de-emphasized".

@C0nc0rdance Anyway... what happened to C0nc0rdanceAnswers? Is that still in the works?

@getrealrubberseal Not only that, you come on his channel to completely slander him because he decided to not answer your question for reasons unknown to you. You start to jump to conclusions about him in an attempt to berate him when in reality, all that will do is make him NOT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. So what? He didn't answer your question, he hasn't answered my questions before, probably because he gets comments constantly directed to him that he doesn't have time to answer. Not only that you claim he disabled ratings and thumbed you down SOLELY BECAUSE OF YOU when in reality, you have NO IDEA why you claim he did what he did. It could have been YouTube had a problem (they've disabled ratings before), or he was working on the video and your comment happened to be superseded by another and you didn't bother to look for it in All Comments, or he censored it. The point is, without evidence, your accusations carry little weight.

@getrealrubberseal That's quite an accusation. Do you have any proof that he did it? (Screen cap, inbox message, channel notification, etc.). Even though that single paper states it is sensitive, that isn't an over arching conclusion to not provide circumcision to infants. Especially since a bigger problem is HIV which has been shown to be alleviated by circumcision. He also states that he's "not sure if removing tonsils should be a routine practice" and that he would rather "examine the medical costs and benefits, and ethical risks before making such a decision". That's the problem with people commenting on that video. They see it as a completely dichotomous issue, an all-or-nothing decision , which is a cognitive distortion and logical fallacy. To me, if reducing the sensitivity of the penis causes more life to be saved due to the prevention of HIV, I'm for doing it.

Please never quit what you fo Mr C0nc0rdance. i am 20, out of HS havnt started College yet. I love you channel. Out of all the science channels yours is the most focused on learned and the least on beating the dead horse of "there is no god".... Even the pics in the background of your videos are educational. I remeber in one of them you mentioned the monty hall problem but didnt elaborate. well me being thirsty for knowlege i went and looked it up spent about 20 min understanding it then how .999999(barred) =1 i ended up writing my old math professor and he thought me something new that worked for simplifying all repeating decimals into a nice clean intiger. PLEASE DO NOT STOP. WE WILL MIRROR THE DCMA'D VIDS AND HELP YOU WITH THE FIGHT... PLEASE!!!!!

The question was on C0nc0rdance's circumcision video. I've put the question up again.

On a side note, I've recently become aware of C0nc0rdance's old YouTube channel, and I've seen how he commented back then, which has given me a lot of insight to his personality as a whole. Especially after seeing him pull sneaky tricks like the ones I mentioned below. Because of this, I'm now beginning to think that C0nc0rdance flagged his own videos to get stronger support and sympathy, and to beat the drums against those he fights.

I don't have much of a problem with the facts he puts in his videos. What I do take issue with is his intentional omissions (that's a big one!), fallacious argumentations, holier than though attitude, and his general personality as a whole. He's a snarky pretentious d-bag who talks down to everyone, treats adults like children, deceives by ridicule (fallacious ad hominem attacks), engages in regular straw men, and builds a general case for blindly trusting authority.

Do you ever plan on making a video about the effects of video games on human behavior and the ability to concentrate? I'm very intrested in this topic since i play a lot.
