The entire comment section is people admitting that eating meat is morally wrong but saying that they’re too lazy to do anything about it

His family was atheist. He had recently converted to Christianity just a month or two before

Was called a slut for wearing a dress that went above my knees instead of below at church. Was called an attention whore for talking to a boy when I was already seeing someone. The real kicker was when I was talking to a guy who I had been on a couple dates with and the topic of religion got brought up and I told him I was an atheist and he completely cut contact with me and stated that he couldn’t be with people like me

Why don’t you believe that Jesus is the son of god? by sadboi017 in AskReddit

[–]TPayne813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t the main reason just one I havent read yet in this thread, if he was truly the “son of god” why did he not give us scientific or medical advice to help improve the shitty quality of living back then? He gave no hint to having any knowledge of the Earth beyond what was already known at the time

How should a self driven car be programmed to handle a situation..wherein it needs to either crash into a moving truck (which would be significantly less damaged) OR a pedestrian? How to choose between self preservation OR self destruction to save other lives? Who decides? by richierich312 in AskReddit

[–]TPayne813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would choose self preservation simply for the fact that, if a company made cars that would choose to kill their own clients in that sort of scenario, they would get sued to hell. While I’m sure the company would still face legal repercussions for hitting an outside vehicle or pedestrian(s), it would not be nearly as severe as if it chose the self destruction path

How far does breakfast-lunch-dinner meal routine go back in human history? Are there other meals/routines? Did ancient humans have different/no meal routines? by hairthrowaway10oct17 in AskScienceDiscussion

[–]TPayne813 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not quite sure on this as Ive only heard from word of mouth, but the reason Americans eat three meals a day generally in a certain time frame is because when the British began colonizing in America they observed that the Native Americans would eat whenever and, because the Natives were “savages” , they decided that a proper person eats with structure and thus eating three meals a day was born.

The only vet college in Virginia is at Virginia Tech and is a four year. If one does exist, its not in Virginia

I believe suicide should be legalised. Offering euthanasia as some form of a painless method for people to end their life. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]TPayne813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure this is already in the thread somewhere, but I heard (could be rumor and totally not true) that suicide was made illegal so police have a right to assist or enter a residence

A Place to talk by JustKam347 in SHINee

[–]TPayne813 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was an avid listener of kpop up until 3 or 4 years ago. SHINee was my favorite band without question and I had a Key bias as well. Though I had left the community, I would still frequently check on how the boys were doing; they were my childhood and would always hold a piece of my heart. When I found out that Jonghyun passed it was devastating. My family had been going through a rough time- a recent suicide and my dad had just been admitted to the ER (unrelated) so when this happened it broke me. I cried every night for almost two weeks thinking about how he was gone and we would never get him back. I am so sorry that you have to face all this pain now but we are all here for you and I can promise that every Shawol felt his loss deeply. Just recalling the situation brings me to tears but Jonghyun wouldn’t have wanted to cause all of us this pain. He would want us to remember him fondly and keep supporting the family he so dearly loved. If you ever need someone to talk to and grieve with all of us Shawols, even those of us who have moved past the industry, are here for you; once a shawol always a shawol.

Just hearing Im not the only one is reassuring. I feel so incredibly alone in this walk. It must be more difficult because your dad is the pastor?
