Sunday School 1 year, 3 months agoHere is an interesting article that adds to our knowledge of cats. Isreal is freaky in how much novel shit it produces and discovers for such a tiny country.

Sunday School 1 year, 3 months agoMakes sense to me.
It is hard to read the tea leaves and consequences unforseen and unintended may unfold. If USA deports nine gazillion or attacks Canada/Denmark/Panama or some combination the prospect of war might be untenable so economic war might ensue. Pay me today. You fellas sure owe me a lot of money for the beer you drank, goddammit.

Mam, you are wearing a cross and have a bible in your back seat. Please step out of the car. You are under arrest for gross stupidity detrimental to public safety and the greater culture. You have a right to request counsel. Anything you say is automatically stupid and will be used against you in a court of law. Do you understand these rights as i…[Read more]

Nothing wakes you up more to how far gone humans are than a person under the influence of religion.

Sunday School 1 year, 3 months agoOn a hunch Simon will regard this experiment as relevant to his ideas about morality as they relate to evolution. Either way it is interesting.

Random Posts 1 year, 3 months agoMorality as a concept is academic unless it is to decide the big issues we are confronted by in day to day life. In terms of morality of governments? Religions? Autocrats? Humans in cults, ideologues in ideological groups? As i have indicated humans are led. There is nobody home to discern right from wrong. Even the most obvious betrayals of…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 year, 4 months agoI checked with an LLM whether migrants crossing TX border were committing crimes at a higher rate than rest of us. As expected the answer is no. And if i recall it is much lower in terms of violent crime. Sickening demagoguery from Trump. But it is useful to him and works on his useful idiots. And from the progressives we only hear about cops…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 year, 4 months agoI was contemplating how things in US might play out if a spate of Muslim terror attacks ensue.
My thoughts meander. Coinciding as it would with a Trump administration that has already shamelessly endorsed nativism? Restrictions, restrictions. Very few Muslims would be permitted to immigrate, if any. Would Muslims who are already citizens be…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 year, 4 months agoIt is the Zionist government that i despise. I am not a bigot. I judge individuals as individuals. And i judge fairly the government of Israel vis a vis other middle eastern governments.
But if you criticize the beliefs of Muslims you are a bigot and labeled islamophobic. STFU over any constructive sleight even if the calumny is in my mind alone…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 year, 4 months agoSimon says:
That is pure patriarchy in action.
It is a living breathing nightmarish expression of religious purity. It is not extreme. Just another outbreak of suppurating oozing righteous rapture. Divorced as it is from basic human impulses its victims languish in obscurity as the world turns its venom on Israel/Jews.
It is unimaginable that…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 year, 4 months agoFrom a Newsweek article:
The Taliban have banned windows that look onto areas where Afghan women could be seen inside their homes.
“Seeing women working in kitchens, in courtyards or collecting water from wells can lead to obscene acts,” government spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid posted on X on Saturday.
This is the latest move taken by the…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 year, 4 months agoWhen i was a kid and the topic of original sin was in play i was just amazed anyone would buy into that nonsense. Even JP with his ridiculous casuistry would not stoop so low.
But i wonder if an extension of that thinking is not in play in the Christian mantra, ‘Who Killed Christ? The Jews killed Christ!’ And today all of those putative sins of…[Read more]

Another Mormon related story comes to mind. I know an atheist who grew up in Utah and was not terribly well accepted. I guess the schools were almost exclusively Mormon kids. On other hand he had never heard any antisemitism growing up and that is unlike any other part of USA that i am aware. Maybe reservations if they have not gone all lefty.

Tolerant?
Quick study suggests answer is yes.
I quote from some purportedly scholarly article. Mormons are relatively friendly to other religious groups.
The study also reports that Mormons are among those most friendly toward those of other faiths. Relatively speaking, the United States has not been the scene of deep religious conflicts; it…[Read more] - Load More
