  • They’ve all taken the Torah that Moses dreamt up and made their own version with hookers and blackjack. You can spin it however you want, but it’s true. The fact that it’s not copied word for word doesn’t change the fact that it’s the same foundation.

    The Egyptians and the Mesopotamians/Babylonians influenced the Canaanite religion, then that evolved into Judaism, then that splintered into Judaism and Christianity and then came Mohammed who was like “yep, those guys and those books came from God! And I am the last prophet of God!”

    Then we got a bunch of other prophets like Joseph Smith, Nostradamus, David Koresh, Jim Jones, Ellen White, etc. So… Yeah.

    Also, I guess this is an example of how different people interpret these books. To me, 5:2 seems to speak against word vomit, which is what I was implying you’re doing in this thread and others.

    You remember wrong. It just means “of rome” and it’s that because it was a roman province. There’s a difference between “of rome” which is what “român” means and “the true descendants of Rome” which is what you’re claiming. We’ve never claimed to be more Roman than Italians or anything. That’d be stupid.








  • Uuuh, splitting hairs on my choice of words. The republican party split into two and so did the votes. The fact that I said “stole” wasn’t part of the point. And ofc you’re gonna say it’s impossible to know…

    It’s just a coincidence that in 1908 it was 6.4m vs 7.7m votes (dems and republicans respectively) and in 1912 it was 6.3m vs 3.5m + 4.1m (Dems vs republicans and progressives respectively)

    Yeah, the numbers stayed more or less the same except the republican vote got split. But yeah, that’s just a coincidence, we have no way of knowing!






  • Are you writing this comment while outside actively protesting the genocide? Cause if not, then you’re literally doing nothing to stop this. And no, voting third party might ease your conscience, but it’s not actually doing anything for Palestinians. Like… 200+ years of pointlessly voting third party has pretty much proved that. But you use words such as “pogroms” and you believe you’re right so most likely nothing I say will change your mind. But it might sway whoever reads this, so… Here’s to hoping your bullshit gets understood as such.


  • Also depends on the rules of the universe. In the Dresden files, for example, places have a defensive aura based on stuff like… homeyness. A house that has been in the family for generations and people have lived there constantly will have a stronger repulsive aura for the fae. Whereas an apartment where a bachelor lives will have a weaker one.

    Also stuff can still enter, it’s just that they get considerably weaker or completely powerless if they enter without an invitation.

    No, the joke wouldn’t have been as funny if it said “scammer” instead of “smart engineer”. Plus, I think it’s more a jab at engineers rather than anything. Because most would rather argue/explain the whole 10 vs 11 thing than just go "ok, sure, I can do that " and get paid.
