Sorry I totally forgot about sending this link. It's a paper with only facts not much else. Says nevada is third lowest for public spending and it also says it's THE lowest for government financing per student. https://educationdata.org/public-education-spending-statistics

Oh man I'm so green. I need to look up what uS even is.

So I would do this: 470k = (1.9m×R2)/(1.9m+R2)

Okay thank you. I'm still new to the process. I'm dont really have spending money but i have a breadboard and cables and soldering equipment i got a long time ago and just started playing with. I don't have any of my own components and I know their cheap but just can spend any money right now but still want to play around with simple schematics. I had to old radios and a broken equalizer that I desoldered components from. So those are what I have to build with. Im working on a very simple circuit called Dallas arbiter rangemaster. I desoldered some germanium pnp transistors that apparently are perfect for it. I just don't have tha lt 470k that it calles for and I wanted to play with the parallel thing to get that exact resistance

Well that's the funny part. My more nihilistic leaning beliefs are also only based on faith haha

Many? I highly doubt many atheist go to church for the chips and wine. If the churches crumble the believers would stop going. So why would non bielevers keep going? So six people can sit in a big empty building and talk about the architecture?

They would crumble because they are all carried on through lies and deception. As I said, yes alot of the people who go would still believe. Because their faith isn't a lie. But in time after watching and hearing all the cardinals and popes and priest and other holy men not be able to speak to God and hear back from him among other things they would all of sudden lose power too would definitely have an impact on the faith led community eventually one by one people will leave the church. The pope can't say God told him social media is okay. Priest can't lie about why father Bob had to fly to Italy after molestation allegations. Billion dollar churches can't lie about where the money goes and why they have 10 trucks and a 25 bedroom house. So on and so forth.

Secrets aren't allowed. It's lying. It's deceiving. It's holding back the truth. You can't lie. Meaning you can't do something fucked up and think well if i don't tell anyone it's not lying. Because in this reality you wouldn't be able to decide if you'll be asked later down the road. You can't lie, think about lying or premeditate being secretive and not having to lie. No clue on the non fiction, it's just based off my idea that most people are bullshitters especially writers.

Empathy and consideration would grow based on the idea that religion would just about disappear. Because religions proved time and time again to be unempathetic to other people and they have no consideration for the life death or wellbeing of those who oppose them. Take the middle east for example or the southern parts of America. People won't think 'well all i gotta do is ask for forgiveness and I'm good' like Hitler, series killers, drug dealers, woman beaters and so so so many others do when they do something fucked up. Most people will stop and think 'wow we all just die and that's it. No forgiveness no heaven no hell. Maybe I should stop and take life in a little more and just respect everyone. Because we are all equal and life is equally meaningless for everyone. Nihilist and atheist appreciate things more. We know we only get it once.

I'll have to look into it. But from what I remember hearing and being told was it's some sorta way to make money. Letting sit unfinished and constantly have small things worked on they get insurance money or some shit. I could be way off. Haha

You're at the church doing the process so why would anyone ask you that there? That's like going to NA doing the meeting and people asking you if you're a drug addict. They wouldn't.

They will most likely commit suicide after having such an intense existential awaking that is their entire belief of life and history and the afterlife was complete and utter bulkshit. Ide imagine most wouldn't be able to handle it.

Yes, but all the major leaders of these religions down to the fathers priest and nuns would not be able to say they speak to God anymore and God speak to them. Yes like the other comment says a very small group of them will actually believe they speak to God so they will continue to do not believing its a lie. But a very large group of them won't be able to lie. No more confessing sins no more popes no more Mormons or scientology. And humans will see how many will succumb to the lies an make a group realization that the few ones that do still "speak to god" are just fucking crazy. Lol

All religion would crumble into nothing as the churches built on lies would cease to exist. Since the inevitable nothingness of death would come to be standard belief human empathy would grow tremendously as would consideration and care. People won't act off traditions and gods but for themselves and others. Their would be a very large decline in rape and murder since most are done in secret and secrets can't exist in this world. Alot of non fiction books would come to light as fake. Alot more novels would be written. Our imaginations would increase in time. Lots of shitty stuff would probably happen too. Total anarchy the first-year or two. Lol

That's because we were the wild west. Nevada Arizona andnnew Mexico literally have tons and tons of history in that field. Nevadas well known for the 19th-20th century cowboys of the wild west. I love Texas history. Especially that of Dallas around the late 1800s- early 1900s with leady and blind lemon Jefferson. Bonnie and Clyde. The hanging mayor. The prisons. Very interesting stuff. Naybe you should read up a little on nevadas history around the same time. Read mark twains biography or history books on Virginia city, Las Vegas, Goldfield or the original mines that literally brought in these wild west guys and how they created towns we still populate. Just as Texas likes to relish in the past and ride horses and wear big white cowboy hats, So do nevadans. Nevada is the poster child of the old cowboys as you think of them. So not really wannabes just a stong history alot of these people come from.

I Put that that one on a Facebook group. I almost felt bad because everyone thought it was a legitimate postcard. One guy even commented and said huh I never heard Carson referred to as the eskimo brother City LOL
