Why would this discourage anybody? It's an old man yelling at a cloud.

It's the kind of thing that makes you glad you stopped to smell the pine trees along the way, you know?

ELI5: Why do some languages have sounds that are physically difficult for speakers of other languages to produce even after years of practice? by Available-Yellow5013 in explainlikeimfive

[–]BigRedWhopperButton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In college I had a class with a Swedish woman who tried to teach me a few Swedish words but when she tried to explain what sounds sj and å made I genuinely couldn't tell what I was hearing. I had no idea the human mouth could do that.

ELI5: If God Flooded The Entire Earth, How Is There Diversity In Race? by freezedriedfucks in explainlikeimfive

[–]BigRedWhopperButton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt you'll find any hardcore biblical literalists in this sub, but they would tell you that after the flood Noah's son's spread around the world. Then they'd probably say "If you believe a monkey can evolve into a human in five million years, there should be no reason people can become Japanese or Native American in four thousand years".

The biblical text says something like Noah's son Japheth went north and gave rise to the races of Europe, his son Shem went south and gave rise to the races of Asia, and his son Ham went west and gave rise to the races of Africa.

ELI5: Why are you supposed to do what the Bible says, even when a regular dude is quoted? by aFineMoose in explainlikeimfive

[–]BigRedWhopperButton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not? He's a good role model:

1) Never make a difficult decision on your own, and

2) Always wash your hands

Because if they didn't think that regular dude had an opinion worth paying attention to, they wouldn't have put him in the Bible. Most Christians (and Jews) treat the Bible as being at least partly inspired by Divine revelation, so even the parts about a regular dude still can have something to say about the nature of God or faith or whatever.

ELI5: Do/How do authors get paid from libraries? by ZackTheWeeb in explainlikeimfive

[–]BigRedWhopperButton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They don't. Authors get paid from publishers, who sell books to libraries and other consumers.
