havent had a hangover in close to a decade doing this.
when independence was our declaration conveyance
it formed a republic with a twist of democracy
power to the people's voice was it's purveyance
today the people blindly march toward oligarchy
as we for free products provide our own surveillance
and I long for the future Just and Loving theocracy
When those in Christ know God fully in unveiled valence.
I can see a new zuck quote now... 'i asked them for nudes and those idiots just gave them to me'
also there's a lot of annoying little things - if i'm typing in one space, and switch spaces, my typing cursor is still off the screen until i bring an app in the current space in focus
you can still do it, but there's a lot more context-specific stuff to be a keyboard poweruser on MacOS vs windows/linux
fair point ;)
I think Elon might have done well to be less brusque with the more run of the mill questions but I really enjoyed listing to the long exchange there
windows is definitely a minority in web hosting
>For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
Thank God for Christ, to redeem us from our lack of thanks and honor to God!
my comment is quite directly related to this expression by OP
>but this comment is a reason why religion is not useful. This reply could be used as a response to any comment and adds nothing useful at all.
this is fallacious reasoning. Particularly affirming the consequent to my eyes (If religion is useless, religious comments are useless. this religious comment is useless, therefore religion is useless)
>It seems that the grandparent comment is starting from the premise that god exists and looking for evidence to support the conclusion they already hold.
it seems that you are assuming anything affirming God must be irrational and therefore state that I must be approaching this irrationally.
I encourage anyone who finds the concept interesting to check out this book:
https://www.amazon.com/None-These-Diseases-McMillen-MD/dp/05...
Some modern physicians wrote a book about this called 'None of these diseases'
https://www.amazon.com/None-These-Diseases-S-McMillen/dp/080...
To me the rational conclusion given the information above is that those laws really did come from a source of knowledge higher than the totality of human knowledge at the time.
I've never for a moment given God all the thanks he deserves for what He's given me. Color is one easy example - what a wonderful, beautiful gift that I've not thanked Him for, for the vast majority of my life. I constantly fall short of giving Him the honor he deserves.
this presupposes that punishments fit crimes for corporations in our country, and that there isn't rampant partiality
See the separate events in the last decade or so with major players getting minuscule punishments: Goldman Sachs et al, BOA, HSBC, Wells Fargo, etc etc
any major players? entire healthcare industry is married to microsoft, at least the big names. same for lots of major enterprises that i know of
the puritanical value is 'sex should be enjoyed in marriage, monogamously'
pornography is harmful to our brains, many studies have shown this.
plenty of studies also show that people who have fewer sexual partners are ultimately happier in their sex life.
and it doesnt take much thought to see that STDs would spread much more slowly if people were monogamous.
lots of good things come from that value. on the inverse, the 'have sex as much as you want' mentality leads to unplanned pregnancies/killing unborn babies, devaluation of the gift of sex, and spread of disease. but hey, you get to have 'lots of fun' so is it worth it?
sex and money are the greatest idols in our society, and the worship of either does not yield good things.

Pornography is a harmful drug and can have many of the same psychological and physiological effects as other addictive substances.
for many, it's not. We are designed to seek pleasure, so many make that their highest goal.
But nothing in this world can provide true and lasting pleasure, only God can.
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
