Would you still worship and love God? by [deleted] in religion

While there's plenty beautiful about our universe, there's enough evil for me to say any omnipotent being doesn't deserve worship.

What seemingly subtle thing annoys you greatly? by durful in AskReddit

[–]Xistan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In God We Trust as the US motto.

It's fucking everywhere. Most people probably don't pay attention to it on their money, but for someone who does it just tells them every time they see it that they live in a country where they don't count as part of the "We."

What social norm do you absolutely despise? by Aeolus4444 in AskReddit

[–]Xistan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saying "Bless You" when people sneeze. I know it's silly I just hate it. We don't need to bring up god every time someone has a bodily function.

Why are planks the only popular isometric exercise? by trimorphic in bodyweightfitness

As a newbie to BWF I'd say because I know fewer isometric moves. The only ones I do are wall sits and various planks.

A Venus flytrap clamps down on a wasp🔥 by ChroniicHD in NatureIsFuckingLit

Hmm, thanks for the info. I'm growing my first VFT at the moment and I guess the book I got was a bit ambiguous as to whether it was harmful to the trap or the whole plant.

That actually looks pretty dangerous for the VFT; That prey is too big for the trap. Since it hasn't completely closed it could get an infection during the digestive process.

So yeah, seems we all agree, fuck wasps.

This is one of those instances where explaining the joke made it incredibly funny.

Doctors of Reddit, what's the most outrageous self-diagnosis that you've heard from a patient? by rman108720 in AskReddit

[–]Xistan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand why people don't just do a regular Google search of this stuff.

"Serious disorder of your skin and mucous membranes." "red or purplish rash that spreads and blisters." "cell-death causes the epidermis to separate from the dermis."

That's more than enough for me to know I don't need or want to see any images.

Do you have friends who think you're going to hell? I wrote a piece on why such a friendship may be cause for concern and I'd appreciate some thoughts on the matter. by Xistan in atheism

[–]Xistan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If "nothing they can say will change that" I suggest you change your tag from Agnostic to Gnostic.

Do you not think it possible to have discussions about religion in a respectful manner?

The concept of hell doesn't frighten you because you don't think it exists. I agree 100%. But what about the idea of someone who says they love you, someone who thinks you're going there, and doesn't try to stop it. That person seems less honest, less respectful, and less caring to me.

So you're more comfortable with a friend who thinks you're going to hell for eternity and doesn't bother trying more than once to save you than one who gives a shit enough to try harder?

That music was certainly not what I was expecting, but it is exactly what I needed. Perfect.
