A Pennsylvania man is facing murder charges after fatally shooting and beheading his father — then uploading the gruesome aftermath to YouTube — claiming he was trying to arrest him for being “on the left.”
“Belief without proof” is what we are all forced to do in life where proof is rarely available, and yet we must still make decisions, and we must manage our doubt and the strain of responsibility. If you think you’re immune, you don’t understand the first thing about your own mind.
I make decisions on my past experiences and then adjust if things change. If people are just doing things without proof, then we just found the problem now, didn’t we?
Belief without proof has killed more people than anything throuought all of earth’s history.

There is so much proof for so many things, there is an abundance of empirical proof across the board. This is a shit take.
I think they were subtly referring to religion but same same.
I chose not to recognize the biggotted subtext and instead to steelman the statement into something spiritually and factually meaningful.
It’s not bigoted to say religious people have no proof. Belief without proof is the definition of faith.
It’s also not bigoted to say religion has a high kill count. Religion has been a major factor in wars and straight up murders since the beginning…
No that’s malaria but go ahead and show how angry you are that your mommy wouldn’t let you bring your PSP to church
Damn. You’re right. You won
that is the conservative way, they are most likely to fall for any scams in general.
