In the article about the boycott of US goods, they show this photo, saying that US products are turned upside-down in protest:

This is standard practice for Hienz. They even print their label upside-down with extra wide caps. Hienz bottles have been upside-down in my local (Pennsylvania) store for years.

I stumbled across it and was surprised I hadn’t heard of it before. I recommend it.

The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom is a waste of taxpayer’s money that needs to be DOGEd.

From the Atlantic photos:

“An Indian army cadet performs drills at the Officers Training Academy in Chennai on March 7, 2025.”
WTF. He’s training to attack a kid?

What are freedom freckle parties?

 

My answers to the 30 questions:

1. Are you certain that God does not exist, or that you can’t know whether He exists?
A: I am certain that god exists as a fictional enforcer for a heaven/hell protection scam.

2. How do you know that?
A: From the manipulative actions of your cult and it’s followers.

5. Did you use your reasoning to determine God does not exist?
6. How do you know your reasoning is working correctly?
7. Did you use your reasoning to determine your reasoning was working?
8. Do you see the problem with that?
A: I see a problem with the cult’s and your reasoning skills and arguments for god/afterlife. Such as your argument here against using reasoning.

9. The Bible says that skepticism about God is the result of a mind suppressing what it knows to be true. Have you ever tried doubting your doubts about God?
A: I started out as a christian. Religion was suppressing what we all know to be true.

10. The Bible contains hundreds prophecies fulfilled hundreds of years after they were written. How would that be possible without God?
A: What the bible said is irrelevant. It is propaganda. You need to find questions NOT based on the bible.

11. The Bible says that objective moral values are based in God’s morally perfect nature. Without God, what do you think they are based in?
A: What the bible said is irrelevant. Morals are based on civilization and culture.

12. Jesus’ disciples went from being terrified of death, to being willing to die for their belief that Jesus rose from the dead. If Jesus didn’t rise, what do you think changed their mind?
A: Their need to keep their cult and their leader alive.

13. There are hundreds of varieties of unbelief. How do you know yours is the right one?
A: Hundreds? It doesn’t matter. I only need to know the belief in the supernatural is false.

14. Archaeology is constantly confirming the details of the accounts in the Bible. Why do you think that is, if the Bible isn’t true?
A: Bullshit.

15. There is more evidence that Jesus Christ lived, died and came back to life than for just about any other event in ancient history. If God did not exist, or Jesus’ claims to be God were not true, then how would you explain his resurrection?
A: Lived, died and came back are three different things. There is absolutely no evidence that he came back. Your bible proves nothing.

16. What do you think makes so many Christians able to live radically different lives from the way they used to live prior to becoming Christians–even to the point of forgiving their abusers for terrible crimes?
A: Don’t know, don’t care. Proves nothing about the supernatural.

17. One of the most basic principles of philosophy, confirmed by science is ex nihilo nihil fit (“out of nothing, nothing comes”). Without God, how do you think everything came into being?
A: I do not know. Neither do you. That does not prove god.

18. The Bible says that we were created to live forever, and that death is an unnatural enemy, brought about by sin. If you are a naturalist who believes death is simply part of life, how do you explain why we feel like we ought to live forever, and why pain and death feel so unnatural and wrong to just about everyone?
A: Wishful thinking. What the bible said is irrelevant.

19. If your brain is merely the unplanned result of evolution by natural selection, aimed at survival and nothing else, what makes you think you can trust your reasoning to discover the truth, rather than just whichever belief is best for survival?
A: Understanding is important for survival.

20. If no God, why would anything objectively matter?
A: Some things matter TO ME AND MINE. I don’t give a shit what matters to your self-centered god. You ask such stupid questions.

21. If no God, why is there so much good in the world?
A: Your cult does not have a monopoly on ‘good’. Why does your ‘all powerful’ god allow so much ‘bad’ not caused by humans?

22. If no God, how did our DNA get programmed with such incredibly complex language and instructions?
A: You must have heard of ‘evolution’, even if you don’t believe it. You reject evolution and science, because it makes your cult unnecessary.

23. Is everything in the universe really just matter and energy?
A: Maybe. I sometimes wonder if ‘matter’ is just different combinations of the 4 forces.

25. The Bible says every good and perfect gift is from the Father above (i.e. God). To whom are you grateful for the good things in your life?
A: What the bible said is irrelevant. It is propaganda. Your cult does not have a monopoly on ‘good’. I thank the people who made the good things possible.

26. Where do you think the laws of logic come from?
A: People.

28. What evidence would actually convince you that Jesus Christ is God, the Lord, and the only Savior?
A: God needs to show-up. (Putting an end to your cult would help)

29. How much do you know about the heart of the Christian message, AKA the “Gospel” or good news?
A: I was raised christian.

30. Are you ready to learn more about Jesus? Start here with the Gospel of John.
A: FUCK NO. You are a fool if you think any of that was convincing.

Re. ‘The future of’

It’s a shame Tom Crooks didn’t have one of these on the day.

I don’t care about Isreal. But that article says the jews owned only 6% of the land.

How did that give them control?

To take another example, if you murder someone but the state fails to convince a jury that you did so, you are still a murderer.

So would you also say a soldier is also a murderer even though condoned by society?

Re: Picking a fight. There is some good advice there, that I wish more xians would take.
2. Don’t assume that your atheist friends are secretly angry at God  (god is just a figurehead. we are angry with your religion.)
3. The Bible is …, but if you quote it to an atheist as an authority, it will be like your doctor explaining his diagnosis by reading a passage from a Harry Potter book.
4. Don’t feel like you have to have all the answers (Stop pretending. Don’t just accept the first answer you were given.)
6. It’s true that science doesn’t have all the answers, (doesn’t claim to) but it does have some of them, and if you try to deny that, you risk pushing yourself into crackpot territory.
7. remember that conversion is ultimately God’s job, not yours. (so STFU)
8. What if Christianity was false and Greek mythology was actually true? What would it take to convince you of that? (Nothing, right? Same as your religion.) 

(parenthesis mine)

I think most of us on AZ saw it coming too.

Don’t laugh this off.

To Canadians this is a REAL THREAT. And not the first time.

The war of 1812 is taught in Canadian schools as an attempted invasion of Canada. We in the US are only taught of the British invasion of Washington. But many of the battles took place around the Great Lakes we share with Canada. Including on Canadian soil. Against Canadian troops. And talk in Washington, at the time, was about securing our north coast from a British colony (Meaning Canada. Maybe we should separate it from England).

Rump is risking more than a trade war.

Nick Tiller’s categories ‘liar’ and ‘bullshitter’ aren’t different enough to make a difference to me. I’d call them ‘trumped-up’ categories.

[unapologeticParticipant]

If I take what you said literally I’m both liable for referring the copyrighted work to the AI but not liable because the AI (“no human”) created.

I take that to mean that I (a third party) can use the generated art any way I want with no liability. As if in Public Domain. It is different from the original, so I’m not infringing on the original creator. And you have no IP claim, so I am not infringing on yours.

Correct.

Yes, I used to own that comic. Disney sued.

Decades ago I used to own a copy of a college dissertation on the multiverse that got the author hired in the comics industry. He even rose to become editor. (I forgot his name).

Wow Cunk is annoying. Why would anyone consent to an interview with her?
