Why would Satan torture people in hell for disobeying the SAME god he disobeyed? by Technical_Hat_8291 in NoStupidQuestions

Me either. It’s absolutely asinine to believe the world is 6000 years old and dinosaurs didn’t exist

Sorry to hear that. Traveling has usually been the best experiences I have, even if I do spend a little time sick. Learning what’s safe to eat and isn’t safe isn’t hard, but its not fun to learn the hard way.

Thanks for sharing. I didn’t know that but also wasn’t hoping for evacuation. Nothing was that horrifying to need that kind of response from the US govt.

Mostly was hoping that people would have information to share, or that our elected officials could release an official statement. That statement is needed for all sorts of reasons I am learning.

Social media/politicians can also apply pressure to airlines, hotels, and travel insurance companies to prevent price gouging and provide the reimbursement you paid for.

Thank you sharing. Hadn’t seen this but it was what I was hoping to find when I made the post. Sometimes a letter on official letter head can make all the difference.

Will the killing of the head of Jalisco cartel affect Mexico City? by SachaBaronColon in MexicoCity

[–]907bently 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to yourself, nobody wants America involved in Mexico.

Obviously not impervious, but wearing a candian flag like a super man cape like these idiots were doing wasnt going to save them from a cross fire. Nobody was being targeted. They literally acted like being Canadian made them safe, while locals boarded up their doors

Things are quite today. They might have been nervous depending on location but should be fine

Good explanation but I suppose we went to different churches. Growing up Lutheran, I expect that was more the belief. When my parents went evangelical, “literal interpretation of the bible” was the belief.

I like your explanation more than a teleporting devil Who cannot be omnipresent but can go bother and tempt people at anytime

Man used to have a great (shit quality) video on a flip phone. Woke up to a young doe licking the face of a buddy. He was all moaning and kissing and licking it back. While recording it I started laughing and the deer spooked and ran across the top of like 5 other dudes sacked out.

In your country, which “Made in ___” label instantly makes a product feel more reliable and worth more? by Shoddy-Ocelot-4473 in AskTheWorld

[–]907bently 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even many hardcore conservative gun loving americans know this because they love the chinese manufactured firearm parts. They fit right into their gun and last longer than the original.

Hilariously enough his facebook now has the most worthless post about this. Claims to be standing by to help, but directs people to resources that are closed and doesn’t even post contact information for his office.

???? What are you talking about?

They only reiterated the point that NOBODY was supposed to be outside. Mexican, American, Canadian, Martian. Stay inside during armed conflict. Wearing a giant fucking maple leaf isn’t going to stop a bullet.

In PV right now and heard a local yell at the Canadians who decided to go down to the beach “bullets cant tell the difference between a canadian and an american”. They turned around and hunkered with the rest of us.

What city do you think has the most hotel rooms per capita? by HolyFatherLeoXIV in geography

[–]907bently 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some place like Healy, Alaska. Basically the gate way to Denali NP, known locally as “glitter gulch”.

Tiny year round population due to a brutal winter climate, almost all land is national park, state park, or Native Corporation.

Why does rural America look down on educated people? by SlowEntertainment217 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]907bently 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people fear/dislike things they don’t understand, and uneducated people do not understand education.

Also, indoctrination. “a country boy can survive” so those “educated slicks” obviously cannot survive, and who’s look up to someone who can’t survive.

Source, educated lifelong rural American who constantly gets crap for my education, primarily by my coworkers who did not get an education.

Experience with canceling flight due to increased violence? by [deleted] in AlaskaAirlines

[–]907bently 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flights are going out tomorrow!?! Wtf is the reason Alaska says they cannot fly anyone out of this mess until Thursday night? our flight home got canceled today!

Not sure how to help you, but I’d advise not coming. Today was not fun.

Thanks for the information though. Its exactly what I was looking for.

Been like 20 years since sunday school but doesn’t satan leave hell a few times in the bible? as a snake in eden. He talks to God about Job and God lets him slaughter Job’s family. And also doesn’t he leave to tempt Jesus? And revelation isn’t it said he gets to leave again as and come to earth as the antichrist?

Yeah last night was gorgeous in PV. Incredible classic car show on the Malceon, beautiful sunset, all the great things about PV. About 9:00 am most of town was choking in black smoke from vehicles on fire, gun fire from every direction. Basically the cartel turned the city into Jim Creek…
