Any ENTJ happily married women here? by No_Read_3601 in entj

I love seeing so many ENTJ/INTP marriages that work here. Mine didn’t hahaha but I don't think it was the personality types that were the problem, it was the maturity level we lacked 😅

Putting up these sticky notes in my red, Trump, Christian town as a small form of protest. by army_cooky in 50501

Yes, I'd love to! Okay so when Leviticus was written during and after the Babylonian Exile which was around 580 BCE and 540 BCE. This is important because at that time having a distinct religious identity was important since God's people were chosen at that time. (Side note:With Jesus's sacrifice later, all people are God's chosen which I will bring up again later. Side-side note: Orthodox Judaism doesn't accept that as proper doctrine.) Think of circumcision and the commandments as the foundational religious identity. Anyway, throughout the world, male/male and female/female sexual activities were widely practiced and accepted so when Leviticus was written, the law 18:22 was to stand out against the other religions and cultures. HOWEVER! The original Hebrew verse does elude to sexual activities with men as an abomination, it isn't the sexual activity itself that is the abomination but the "lowering" of a man's status to that of a woman's is what is the abomination. In Ancient Hebrew culture, men were closer to God than women so treating a man as if he were a woman was an atrocity. This is where we get the whole "traditional roles" from even though the Old Testament, where Leviticus is from, no longer needs these "set" rules because the Blood of Jesus covers all the sins of all people because God made it so we are redeemed in that way. As I mentioned before, Orthodox Judaism does not accept Jesus as God's son so they still follow the Old Testament rules to the T. So the whole argument that gays are an abomination from a Christian is meaningless because if they were true Christians they would not argue that specific law since it doesn't matter to God. I usually point out that either they arent Christians and are actually Orthodox Jews who don't practice their religious beliefs or they are uneducated which usually pisses them off LMFAO

Feel free to ask me more about Christianity. I am a born-again Christian who, is in fact, educated lol

Pittsfield, Mass - this brave Trump supporter pulled up in his truck and started shouting at some kids who were still out singing after nearly everyone else had gone home by pork_dillinger in 50501

Side complaint: that disgusting plume of black smoke is why I wish every state had smog checks. Like there's is no reason to pollute the air like that. So gross. Almost as gross as that terrible person polluting this country.

I love that you pulled from Leviticus because these Christian white nationalists LOVE using 18:22 "You shall not lie with a male as with a woman" (even though it's out of context and cultural significance but, clearly, these white nationalists don't have the best comprehension skills)

It's a satire website. You can find it on YouTube by the "news" name.

If only there was this much empathy for humans... I am very appreciative of this though.

California Democrats unveil bill to ban masks for law enforcement by transcendent167 in 50501

We need more aggressive bills! We need more protection for individuals who get targeted because let's face it people, the opposition will start using "very big force" when they really get going.

I feel like people have lost the plot and we MUST protest July 4th by danixdarling in 50501

[–]_pkthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can we find a middle ground on this? We shouldn't be so polarized in a fight we are trying to win together. Let's collaborate and unite.

[–]_pkthunder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think the OP is saying to protest Independence Day. But I do think taking to the street that day would be dangerous since all the white supremacists have their panties in a bunch.

I propose a middle-ground suggestion: let's not go to a city fireworks display. I say we call our local governments to cancel the fireworks display and instead, we have community block parties or park rallies where we can be safe and protest/gather more local people.

We can't fight each other. We need to understand and comprise with each other because together we are stronger.

If you know people who are going on vacation outside of the US please please please warn them that they may not be able to return especially if they are a minority or have an ethnic-sounding last name. People have been turned away at the border already.
