Have a great week ahead

Thank you for great Sunday school readings.

What we learn from those who have a moral change of heart

Is that really the hill you want to make your last stand on?

Well, corporations have been doing this all along. Not that it is the right thing to do.

Maybe the Fed should have intervened in the market to control prices because i don’t see how individual businesses operating in a free market economy would not respond to inflation pressures in the market.

speech not being violent.

Surely speech can only be harmful, not violent. Violence is physical. To call words “violence” is to devalue the word “violence”.

Why, I agree with you on this. Speech can’t be violent, but we live in that age where words no longer mean what we thought they meant a while back.

I guess addicts don’t eat too well so they remain skinny

I literally lost more than 27kg in six weeks when I developed kidney problems (60 pounds or 5 stone). It horrified the shit out of my friends who didn’t see in between the before-and-after phase. Want to know the secret? I promise you it doesn’t involve any mag…

Oh how long is this lock down going to last anyway??

I hope it ends sooner.

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend’s were.
Each man’s death diminishes me,
For I am involved…

I was hoping for more of a philosophical introduction to ethics with/without absolutes. @unseen, Why can’t we have ethics without absolutes? If we did have ethical absolutes, wouldn’t that mean that they are universal across all cultures (i.e. no child marriage)? Or if child marriage is acceptable by the ethical absolutes, why is it…
