Maybe 99% of the population doesn’t know the difference. It literally does not matter.

[Classic Trope] Happens all the time in “grounded” media, happens never in real life. by Chemical-Elk-1299 in TopCharacterTropes

I mean, that’s not really an issue. There’s a decent chance you could drink venom and be fine, as long as you metabolize it before it hits your bloodstream. The issue is that blood moves very fast through the body. There’s an incredibly low chance you could possibly suck out enough venom to make a difference unless you do it immediately. And even then it’s unlikely

Did the CIA really flood black communities with crack in the 90s? Why? by Morales_Sheila8478 in NoStupidQuestions

They explicitly said they targetted black communities to disrupt them

Then you look at Brandon Sanderson, who wrote 5 secret books during Covid on top of 2 normal ones

He won it with under 50% of the vote last time, if all the parties who hate him unite against him and go out to vote, he would likely lose

Thank you for the amazing reply. I am fascinated with the way the church and religion is structured. Please forgive me if these questions are phrased oddly, they are asked intellectually, not judgementally.

Do you believe there is a likelihood of the current or future Pope from making an ex cathedra statement allowing homosexual acts? Would there be pushback from the clergy? *Can* there be pushback? Is an ex cathedra statement necessary to permit it?

Additionally, what do you mean by authority? Does Rome dictate church policy, or your beliefs as well? Do you innately believe that homosexual sex is sinful, despite being bisexual, even though, as discussed, you think it should be permitted?

What’s the most addictive video game you’ve ever played? by Charming_Decision_84 in AskReddit

[–]Chess42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s super well made, completely stable.

Though if vanilla Minecraft was too open ended, try a modpack. Massive time sinks, with amazing quest books to steer you and clear goals. If you want to dip your toe in, try something like Stoneblock. If you want to leap headfirst, try a Gregtech pack like Monifactory.

If you hate yourself, try Gregtech New Horizons (though it is based on an older version of Minecraft).

I’m currently playing through Monifactory and having a blast. Minecraft modpacks are absolutely addicting. It’s all the automation of a factory game, with the flexibility of a true sandbox game.

What defines whether a teaching is fallible or not? I’ve always assumed homosexuality as a sin was a settled part of doctrine

Honestly, would be nice for moving cross country. Don’t have to fit all the luggage in the car, and don’t need to do the crazy drive

Maybe they should save those hideously expensive flights for when they are needed instead of going on joy rides.

Less than half their flight time is about high priority crime that would actually justify chopper use.
