If your god’s greatest act is “willingly becoming a murder victim”, you might be in a death cult.

Love how they just say “reddit.com” when it’s from r/shittymoviedetails. Perfect place to pull answers from without fact-checking.
That’s not doing facial recognition though, that’s a reverse image lookup. It’s a lot easier to find an exact match for a photo.
“Give me your entire life and I’ll give you rewards beyond your wildest dreams… that you can only see after you die.”
One of the greatest grifts in all of history.
Oh no, I believe in a deity, I just believe the Flying Spaghetti Monster is the all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving being that created the universe. Have you heard the goodness of his noodliness? Forever and ever, r-amen.
Because if you can see how ridiculous that argument is, you can see how ridiculous I think yours is too. English is my first language and I grew up in the church. That’s why I don’t care about your ‘arguments’. I’ve heard them before. I’ve used them before. Then I grew up and learned better.
You’re correct that you cannot prove a negative, which is why the burden of proof is on someone making a claim. You claim there is a god, but cannot prove the existence of him, so I have no burden to believe you just like you have no burden to believe me when I claim there’s an all-powerful coalescent ball of spaghetti that controls the universe. “Just assume it’s true and then marvel at how cool and strange things would be” isn’t actually a persuasive argument.
Jesus was a cool guy, but lots of people are killed for standing up for what they believe in. We don’t make religions out of them, though.–
You argued both sides of “jesus is god” and came to the same conclusion. You realize that’s an argument against God, right? If the story works without him being “divine”, there’s no reason to assume he was.
Also, like I mentioned in the other comment, Pontius Pilate washed his hands of the situation and only ordered the crucifixion because the crowd demanded it. You can question “how could they think that”, and argue that it’s “really quite a narrow range of people”, but the story is still that there were enough of them to demand the crucifixion of Jesus, and succeeded soo… What’s your argument here?
No, Pilate literally washed his hands of the matter and was only talked into it by the crowd. He said he could find no wrongdoing and only ordered the crucifixion to be done with the matter.
People agreed with this so much that at the time, they murdered him for it.
I’ve been playing couch co-op with my husband on both of our Switches. It’s not too bad if you don’t force a turn timer. The game will give you a ding when you’re the last one to play, but we both have ‘side games’ or play with our cats in the meantime if the other needs more time. I wouldn’t do it online or with a turn timer, though.
Christians: Give your money to the poor and love your neighbor as yourself.
Also Christians: Those lazy illegals are taking our jobs! We shouldn’t be taking people’s hard-earned money and just GIVING it to people who have PROVEN they can’t manage it! What about MY bootstraps!
They’ve convinced themselves their (absolutely wrong) choice is the ‘morally correct’ one. Even LISTENING to a contradictory argument is seen as a moral ‘corruption’, so they just … don’t.
I’d imagine the biggest difference is that these employees could actually get fired if they turn theirs off.
the vast majority don’t care or they would have stopped using it a long time ago
It’s a little disingenuous to claim people should’ve stopped using something that hasn’t come to market yet. I was looking for other options when they started trying to force me to upgrade to Windows 11, but this absolutely is the last straw that I won’t use Windows on my next computer.
And I’m sure this in no way will invade people’s privacy.
“Hmm, why is the anti-queer politician sitting next to me being served dozens of male underwear ads? Hmmmm…”
“Why is my daughter receiving ads for newborn diapers? Hmmm…”
“Why is my neighbor receiving ads for anger management? Hmmm…”
I mean, that is still what I mean. For you - it sounds like a great choice. For the people who want it to die, it might be an awful choice. It’s polarizing, but that doesn’t always mean good. It’s hard to make an informed decision even with a popular choice.
At this point, all I know that “I use Arch btw” is a meme, which means it’s either a great choice or an awful choice.
Please no. I didn’t upgrade to Windows 11 on purpose. I’m just trying to hold out as long as I can until I’m forced to switch to Linux. I don’t want to have to deal with more enshittification in the meantime.
I’m still sad that we didn’t use ‘Ultra’, which means ‘beyond’ or ‘on the far side of’. Huge missed opportunity to be called Ultragender instead.
That means it’s fine to give wine to kids because it totally won’t give them a buzz! It won’t affect their feelings towards the church or make them easier to manipulate at all.
Nope. Nuh-uh.
