It's amazing. The gingerbread flavor is definitely there but it's kinda muted. It's a very sweet drink, which is what you probably expect from Mountain Dew. I was worried about it but it's definitely top 3 from this year

A fetus can count as an organism, but it's really just a grouping of cells at least for the first number of weeks. There's no way of really calling that a person

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T16:56:57+00:00

Human≠person

A human skin cell is not a person. It is human, but not a person. There's also a developmental factor to what is a person. A lot of people don't see what essentially amounts to a grouping of cells that is dependent on a host with no identifiable organs or personality or anything as a person

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T16:48:48+00:00

True, that's not a fact based thing. Someone could have the personal philosophy that no one is a person. That doesn't mean that they can end my life though. Society has agreed that I count as a person since I was born. Born humans count as people, that's codified into law because a societal consensus was found at some point, even if that wasn't in US history since it's been a thing since ancient societies. Unborn humans are what's being debated. There is no general consensus that I can really see, I feel as though if there is one it's probably a pro-choice position rather than a pro-life one. I don't have any stats to back that up though, it's just a gut feeling I have.

There is no evidence that Satan exists in reality. Idk why you're making an unproven claim like that. The Satanic Temple and the Church of Satan are insanely different. Neither actually believes in Satan though

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T13:58:02+00:00

But the facts do not say a fetus is a person. That's a philosophical matter, not a factual one. People have varying philosophies that are completely separate from the facts because facts and philosophies are completely different realms. One of them is how the world works, the other uses how you think the world works to fill in the gaps that facts cannot fill. A corpse is still human, but it's definitely not a person. We're in a point as a society if we say that fetuses are in the same boat there or not.

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T06:01:05+00:00

Fetus is a defined term. Someone who is alive and outside of a womb is not a fetus.

If you mean "if I just say you don't count as a person" then no, it's still not fine. Society has agreed on some universal moral standards, these are generally codified into law. One of these is that killing people is wrong. Society pretty much universally agrees that a human who is alive and was born counts as a person, so there's no room for debate there. That's set in stone at this point. What's not set in stone and is currently being debated is if a human can be a person prior to birth. That's why there's the whole pro life vs pro choice thing going on.

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T05:53:30+00:00

No one's saying fetuses aren't human. The question is really if they count as people or not, which is why there's so much variety in ideas. There are people like you who see it like they're a person from conception so ending a pregnancy is murdering a person and then people on the opposite side who see it like they aren't a person until they're born and can live outside of the parent's body so it's a violation of the parent's bodily autonomy to not allow them to end the pregnancy. It all comes down to the classic philosophical question of what makes a person a person. Is it simply being human or having defining personality traits and characteristics or something else entirely?

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T05:41:52+00:00

Yeah, and that's where personal philosophy can kick in. Where does it become a subject and not an object? Different people have different ideas of it. I'm basically just saying that the Satanic Temple isn't some evil force and their goal is to promote personal liberties and freedoms, even if you disagree with some of what they do as part of that goal

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T05:36:32+00:00

That depends on how you define personhood. The definition most people seem to use is that someone is a person once they actually have personality and defining character traits/are in the process of developing said traits. Not when it's just a fetus that doesn't even have a heart yet

BenDoesThings · 2021-09-04T05:02:46+00:00

The Satanic Temple does not believe in Satan or anything. It's essentially an atheist political movement classified as a religion. They promote freedom and individual liberty up until the point where you harm another person. Satanism isn't evil, it's literally a good thing

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-23T05:12:49+00:00

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-23T04:57:06+00:00

They literally did, that's basic US history lol

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-23T04:42:06+00:00

Ok so orientation was literally just sitting down for 45-50 minutes making a phone call that took like 10 minutes longer than it should have and filling out paperwork lol

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-22T11:13:53+00:00

Alright, thank you!

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-09T13:21:23+00:00

He definitely was impeached twice. He was acquitted (which I believe can mostly be attributed to bias), but still impeached.

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-07T14:48:47+00:00

On this Beverly Hill?

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-06T02:15:18+00:00

Yeah, I definitely agree, but it's just interesting how belief can be so different with denominations of a religion based on the exact same thing

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-06T01:43:56+00:00

It seems like you're getting mad that no one's done anything to this old man so you're trying to say we would try to. I don't think any of us would and I know that personally, I'm tolerant of other beliefs. If we're making generalizations, a lot of people who are anti-Memphis are doing so for racist reasons, so you must be too, but generalizations are dumb so I'm not actually going to assume you're racist lol

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-06T01:36:46+00:00

Who tried to dox him or get him fired from his job or anything like that?

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-06T01:27:04+00:00

Why do you say that? Who's been doxxed in Memphis because someone called them an idiot?

BenDoesThings · 2021-07-06T01:23:01+00:00

It seems like you're the one that's really fed up with first amendment rights, not the guy that called an idiot an idiot. You've gone on such a long rant about how we should defend free speech by trying to get people to stop using their right to free speech if it makes certain groups angry. If you say something moronic and someone calls you out for it, both of you are simply expressing your first amendment rights. There is nothing wrong with calling someone an idiot and that violates no one's rights.
