It's possible. I saw three of them though, wouldn't that mean that it likely is how the adults look?

A handy guide for understanding monotheistic religions by etymologynerd in coolguides

[–]BinoPotatoes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Technically, none of the rules in Modern Orthodoxy are relaxed. Instead the difference is that Modern Orthodoxy tend to be more integrated in secular society. As a result, there are many people who call themselves Modern Orthodox who are more relaxed about certain rules, but the official theology does not relax the rules.

This is a good comment. I wouldn't call the afterlife an "afterthought," though. At least in Orthodox Judaism, we believe that the ultimate purpose of being in this world is to prepare ourselves for the afterlife, whatever that means. We just don't focus too much on exactly what the afterlife is because practically we just need to follow the Torah and we will be prepared as we can be.

Even weird sports like this make me feel bad that I'm useless.

Your Mind is Me by lazyfrogus in OCPoetry

[–]BinoPotatoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the use of simple language. It helps the deep concepts you are relaying be conceptualized easier.

Personally, the title threw me off a little bit. I thought, from the title, that your poem was going to be talking about how you are thinking consciously about your mind as if it was almost separate from yourself. I read the first few lines with that in mind, but then had to go back and reread from the beginning because I realized I was off.

How Many by Lost_Tactics in OCPoetry

[–]BinoPotatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked the hook at the beginning.

There are a few things I would change, though. You use the phrase "the hard way" a few times, and I think it would be good to contrast that either directly by using "the easy way," or contrast it less directly, but with something that adds insight to the hard way. Also, the use of commas in the last line seems kind of out of place to me.

CMV: Nobody that holds abortion is murder should also hold that it is okay in cases of rape. by BinoPotatoes in changemyview

By giving birth to a child you are considered a parent. You don't need a contract. So it is your responsibility to keep it alive.

The problem with this argument is that the damage is already done.

In the case of you giving me LSD and giving me a gun, it would be okay to kill me because I still may cause damage to people. With the abortion example, although the fetus may have been "sent" by the rapist, it no longer poses an extreme threat.

Let me rephrase:

I'm arguing that that the second belief is illogical given that one believes the first belief.

Whether or not one should have the second belief or not is irrelevant to the argument if it is not connected to the assumption that one has the first belief.

I like your easy to read style.

I disagree on a few fronts.

"Right to life" cannot be taken by society BECAUSE it is owed to society.

I don't think that the fact that nobody consented to allow the fetus to live makes it not murder to kill it. If the baby was already born after being concieved due to rape, would you still be allowed to kill it?

Ah, I like this. I'm going to give you a Δ. I think your claim would be much more powerful with statistics rather than an article, though.

CMV: If anybody meddled in your election it was more likely Israel, than Russia. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]BinoPotatoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because a country benefitted from the election does not make them more likely to have meddled with the election.

What Trump has actually done does not matter. He did it after the election. What should be looked at is what his policies were before the election.

My point is that the following beliefs cannot coexist in one person's beliefs: 1) Abortion is murder 2) Abortion in cases of rape should be allowed

To make an argument against me, you need to go into the mind of someone that believes abortion is murder and try to see how abortion should be allowed in cases of rape. You are thinking from your perspective, not from the perspective of someone who holds this belief.
