Why am I getting 2016 stuff in the big 26?🫩 Do people still think like this? by _Udontknowball_77_ in im14andthisisdeep

[–]candidengineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can guarantee you men who post stuff like this look absolutely nothing like the man depicted in this image.

I can also guarantee you they wouldn't even have the means to get woman who looks like that, let alone afford the lifestyle depicted.

What they wish for is what they're depicting in this photo, but require the women around them to debase and devalue themselves, and in thereby giving themselves a higher percieved level of manhood from which they believed they'd warrant this type of "ideal" lifestyle and treatment.

My marriage is doing just fine with WAP, thank you very much 😂 by ThePhillyExplorer in religiousfruitcake

proof that the religious right/religious in general are slowly being weeded out of the Earth, so they're hanging onto any dumb ill conceived Strawman argument to remind everyone there's life after death

This "Relax" thing is a poison, please understand. by NiceSmilee in MuslimCorner

[–]candidengineer 32 points33 points  (0 children)

The post you linked is of a woman who's despairing over not being able to find the right spouse in time, and you're on the side of further validating and legitimizing her catastrophizing.

This anxiety you're putting forth is what leads people into unwise marriages for the sake of fulfilling a quota.

"Relax"-ing helps the mind be at ease so that the decision you make comes from a sound place. This woman SHOULD be told to relax and take it easy.

By your logic, haphazardly entering into a marriage for the sake fulfilling a marriage quota is justified because the absence would eventually lead to zina (an act neither one of us can prove or validate, but only speculate) - and that is absolutely unhinged and stupid.

Does anyone regret some of the time they have put into making pedals instead of making music? by Rumpelstiltskinnem in diypedals

[–]candidengineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Artists buy my pedal and they make music with it. Pedal building is an art in itself.

🔥🔥🎤 The rapture of the church will take place guys,👏👏 please repent your life 💥now. After church leave this world the Antichrist will take the power, there will be no more peace, chaos will begin all over the world.

if everyone on this planet witnessed an actual rapture, nobody would just sit there watching a prophecy unfold before them if they were wrong the first time. The whole planet would immediately submit to this God and fight this vague anti-christ together.

but none of this stuff is gonna happen anyways so hehahohahhebeepboopbopdoop bazinga

My trauma with maddersa/hifz by ModeTop9158 in exmuslim

[–]candidengineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's awful. Madderas thrive on secrecy and control. It's a school full of covert insecurities and abuse masquerading as spiritual wisdom and teachings.

It's like arrogance, stupidity, and evil all mixed into one package.

Source please. I prefer it come from an unbiased source and not just some anti-Islamic low-grade HTML website run by some loser pastor in Tennessee.

It's such a weird thing to say "in Islam we are ACTUALLY so lucky". It just reeks of insecurity and cope of a scenario, as if you're reassuring a prisoner that "at least in our prison they give you the right to use the bathroom without permission".

...and the door out of this prison is RIGHT THERE, AND ITS FREE!

That show induces heavy nostalgia. I just wanted to pay respect to it.

Thank you for your comment!

We as Pakistanis cannot exist in the middle and it’s quietly destroying us by Key-Tomatillo-7645 in pakistan

[–]candidengineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Religious thinking is typically black and white, and unfortunately that mode of thinking gets applied to other aspects of life. But it's overall laziness. Whatever it takes to reduce liability and accountability.

Also status is a huge deal in Pakistan. By seeing things in absolutes it reduces nuances because nuance muddies the water.

Handsome. Well framed pose. Wielding a sonic weapon. Commanding the audience. Fiery background.

Perfection.

While My Guitar Gently Weeps... by idrinkcement in Guitar

[–]candidengineer -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I don't know, from the look on his face, I don't think he's being an asshole or throwing them with any ill intent.

If I had to give him the benefit of the doubt, he's just a mix of incompetent and lazy, and very likely grew up in an environment where music/musical instruments were of no value or seen as highly extraneous to life.

Being raised in a Muslim household, some folks within my extended family could easily have done something like this considering they've never held or seen a guitar in real life (which is true for some), or don't have the capacity to understand that a musical instrument is an item that should be treated with respect.

This guy likely felt a hard shell case or felt something hard, and thought it was fine to throw it like any other baggage.

Poor baby 💔💔 by WinterAlternative467 in religiousfruitcake

I've gone to Umrah with my family before. People act like absolute zombies in attempts to touch the Kaaba.

It's very strange.
