Armchair International Relations Experts

🤔 you raise a good point. I mean, look who got put in charge of Middle East peace under the last guy….@MistyCee

@AbbySvenz The armchair quarterback thing analogy really does seem to be way too good.

It seems like we're letting the fans vote on hiring coaches. That may result in more entertaining games and press conferences, but it doesnt seem like a great way to win games.

@MistyCee Amatures built the Ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

@AbbySvenz Yes, and they were making it happen. The peace process they set in motion continues bearing fruit today.
That is a very poor example to try to prove your point.

Excellent point. US foreign economic policies are currently more resemble the Titanic or the Hindenburg. @hippyjoe1955

@hippyjoe1955 The internal logic of that argument is flawed. If we accept the ark building story as factual then, a: we do not know what Noah's profession was. He may or may not have been a professional boat builder. And, b: he was divinely guided in his boat building so that puts him in a unique category.
Regarding the Titanic, the flaw was not with the builders but with those operating the ship.

@sben4200 So how many sea worthy huge ships had been built before Noah's time? And yes the story is true. Regardless of his talent he was untrained in ship building. The people who built the Titanic had formal training and experience is building ships. They could draw on centuries of experience. Other than its size there was nothing unique about the Titanic.

You confounded him or her. @hippyjoe1955
