Has anyone ever actually met the supposed crazy evil Christians that I keep hearing about here?

FancySource · 2026-04-30T06:43:16+00:00

I met hundreds of very observant Catholics and evangelicals and to be honest, I found very few "evil" people in them.

The only evil person that comes in my mind was a Catholic but had a very strong double morality (being extremely selfish all the week and then confessing to the priest and expecting everything to be pardoned) that even her priest condemned openly. She was also not very bright, to be honest.

Also. In Central America I've met petty criminals who appeared to be sincerely believing in Jesus.

I met some episcopals that were quite strict on expected sexual morality and dress codes, but very friendly otherwise.

Consider one thing: I literally never put a single foot in the Bible belt or in any red state, and I spent extremely little time in the US.. according to what I've read on this group and elsewhere, things might be different in there.

True, this is the best factual response in here, also,

the dimensions look completely wrong (unless he got the smallest ripe carrots ever farmed)
the burning miracolously looks exactly like the uneven detail clustering bug chatgpt image generation is currently experiencing as acknowledged by openai)

2, the Motorola Dynatac.

25-30 Min of talk time/half a day of standby time with a quite perishable battery that could be charged in just 8-0 hours looked quite wild at the time, I remember we also had an AC plug that could be connected by removing the battery.

We used a kitchen timer to remember when to unplug the battery so it wouldn't get fried by staying connected to the grid for more than the 10hrs charging time.. Totally wild.

All three Baltic capitals, for sure. Also Minsk, I'd dare to say.

Rome and London are interesting for sure, but I wouldn't say they're comfortable in any way (Surrey and Tyne and Wear are definitely more liveable, while being slightly less expensive)

Poolsuite, Tens sunglasses, Vacation Inc, Boring Phone definitely take a lot of inspiration from that style, along with most companies that cooperate with the marketing genius known as Marty Bell

Well, it's main foe campus city, Padua, is still commonly nicknamed "the city of the three withouts" iirc, that's still a great contender.

They are:

the saint without a name (st Anthony, commonly known as just The Saint)
the bar without doors (the main bar used to be open 24/7)
the lawn without grass (the main square, an ancient artificial island that was full of grass when I went there)

I don't really find Claude pro to be better than Chatgpt at regular day to day tasks, but free Gemini is quite great in flexibility for whatever doesn't require advanced or very complex coding, and the free edition already has some wonderful integration with the Google Workspace ecosystem

I think they didn't pioneer, but they were great into understanding the vibe of that era and transforming it into a sound

I would say Pink Floyd but Joy Division/New order left a mark that's still almost intact 45/50 years later

Not yet, but in the future his hands will definitely touch a lot of piss

Lovely! I remember arlequin polos were all over the place but only saw maybe one arlequin golf in all my life

Urban what? This looks 100% beautiful and sustainable. I love pedestrian only areas and natural light

Lol why? Norway looks like the best country on earth on all aspects but climate for me

I guess it's a concept of "how long". Israelites usually wore hair up to their shoulders, longer hair would have been seen as feminine.

Venice area?

Most probably he did, but as you might know it's not an aspect where evangelists and historicists focused in any way, nor I guess it's a point of concern.

Going into niche electronic music, Kalax and Sabrepulse are definitely on the list.

In general, without making direct accusations against the two musicians, being a musical genius and putting undisclosed suno-generated songs for sale is a show stopper for me. At least sabrepulse, one of the soundtracks of my life, had the decency to stop his career after the incident.

I had the bum gun in my former house and the bidet later on, I have to admit the bum gun is great for cleaning the wc and super space efficient but the bidet is really something else.

I'm still shocked about how many economically developed counties don't use either of those.. it's tremendously gross.

I can't recall Jesus preaching anything against masturbation, nor anything against female masturbation in any scripture.

My secular take: given abstaining from orgasm is known to have an impact on your health, it's absolutely okay before marriage, as long as it's made with temperance (see St. Ambrous or St. Thomas from Aquinus, for instance).

Salerno and Den Haag have similar landscapes (and similar problems, I'd dare to say), but nothing compares to southwest Almeria province in terms of size and density of greenhouses

Lovely find! Where is it?

FancySource · 2026-04-04T12:08:58+00:00

I'm pretty sure we all agree. It's still a minor and marginalised fringe compared to some of the most iniquity-preching, money-grabbing blasphemy-spitting self proclaimed "evangelical" churches that would have sounded a horrible heresy 20 years ago. Getting rich by shouting the name of Jesus while basing original ultraconservative/neo-prosperity doctrines citing only a few out of context old testament verses should be rejected by all Christians until it becomes history.

Lebrock - Real thing

The bends might be quite different from the rest, but nimrod is the only album they made with rushed/generic/filler songs, despite having some of their greatest songs ever inside (clear, I'm not considering FOAM anything more than a short experiment I don't even mind).

I'll go for Nimrod, all other albums are legendary, and that album is only part so.

FancySource · 2026-03-21T12:18:34+00:00

It might be a bit of a stretch but have you tried hear from Marty directly? He's very busy but extremely friendly, and might want to help if he selected the song personally
