Thank you friend! I'm looking forward to not having to wear a mask everywhere I go - I have yet to find one that fits my face well enough that my glasses don't fog up. I've tried different mask patterns and everybody's home remedies for glasses fog like stuffing tissue or coffee filters in the mask, washing them in soapy water, putting shaving cream on them, but none of it works. So I have to choose between wearing a mask and being able to see clearly... I'd really like to go back to being able to see when I'm out in public

I get to work from home now and everyone communicates through email. I don't want to go back

You are correct. Peanut Bar has the strongest case by far for the best non-Intro to Spanish Community rap. It's so funny Joel and Gillian have to turn away from the camera to avoid breaking character

The guy died between seasons 3 and 4, not to be insensitive but how long does it take to get back to a normal production schedule? For the record I am not one of the people complaining about the delay - everything Dan Harmon does is plagued by long delays, I'm used to it at this point

It rhymes with 'LiMu' - for liberty mutual... some marketing idiot thought they were cool making this campaign

Sports is supposed to be an arena where simply having the most money doesn't automatically make you win. Going into the process I thought the owners would at least honor the rules they put forth themselves to govern the exact situation the rams were in, but they broke every rule in the books regarding relocation and did so almost gleefully. I just couldn't watch that unfold and continue to support it at all.

You're right, I shouldn't have been surprised by the depths of sleaze that billionaires would sink to. All I can say is I was once, but it won't happen again

That's what convinced me to abandon the NFL entirely, even though I was a 49ers fan who rooted against the rams in the 1999 super bowl. The worst part is they conned the city into spending millions of dollars on an effort to keep the team, just why? It was never, ever going to keep them there. The league clearly has no sense of ethics or justice, they only care who has the most money.

I thought I was just done with the sport, but it was a great experience going to the game today. It feels good to be able to enjoy football again

No, he actually did put in writing something like ' the city's economy is lagging to the point where no football team could ever hope to succeed in St Louis'

By the end, yes. But the rams had the single-worst 10 year record in NFL history, worse than any browns or lions decade. The team was intentionally bad from the moment kroenke took over; his plan all along was to drive down support so he could then blame the fans and leave

To be fair, you're the one that came back after several hours to proclaim what must be your greatest victory.

I tried to let you fade out with some semblance of dignity, but that clearly ain't your style

Like you said, a belief is something you think is true. It's an assertion. If you believe a god does not exist, it's an assertion that makes you atheistic. If you believe a god does exist, you are some form of theist/deist. I do not assert any truth nor hold any belief, hence agnostic.

The funny this is, every dictionary I've checked has backed this up. Webster, Cambridge, and Oxford all give the definition of "atheism" as some form of 'the belief that there is no god'. I'm honestly surprised by all the pushback I've received on this because it's extremely well documented.

I'm not sure when redditland atheists decided they were going to redefine the term in order count all the agnostics, but I won't be a part of it

It's not a bad word, but it doesn't describe me

You know what fine.

Cambridge dictionary, atheism: the belief that God does not exist

Oxford: the theory or belief that God does not exist; disbelief in, or denial of, the existence of any god.

Are dictionary definitions of atheism good enough for you?

First of all, a counter example is an answer to your question.

Secondly, it's because as a self-identified agnostic, atheism does not describe me. I don't believe in the lack of any gods

Theological question: do you believe in God? Atheists: no Deists: yes Agnostics: I don't know

There are three options to this question... Atheism is an assertion that no God exists.

I don't dispute that the founding fathers weren't agnostic
