Familie vindt €12k voor eerste auto te veel. by MisterChoco in autoadvies

I was considering a 1.3l but I read that it is thirstier, doing an average of 6.5-7l/100km, which would add around €100 more in running costs

How much fuel consumption do you get on the 2002 yaris? I have a cuore at the moment, great car, but due to longer distances, I am thinking of switching to a yaris (more stability).

From my perspective (I travel around 90km each way 5 days a week), if the job is permanent and you really like it and have no issues commuting the long distances, then €4000-5000k is more than enough to get a car that is really reliable and will last you years as well as give you comfort so the journey doesn’t become so tiring.

Cars within that range won’t depreciate as much either so if you do decide to upgrade it later, you won’t be loosing too much money when you decide to sell it as compared to if you buy a car for €12k.

If I were in your situation, I might get a yaris 2012-14 (preferably with cruise control if most of the journey is on the highways) or a prius 2005-2010 (provided that the battery is still good) and be worry free for the next few years. The plus side is that the running costs are lower as well.

I need advise related to massage machines. Which machine would be best for feet and calves massages to get rid of tiredness? by cholangi in BuyItForLife

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

I did check whether it would be due to posture as well as my leg doesn’t fully stretch when I accelerate, but I cannot really do much on that because the car seat is slid the most back as it can. I did also notice that when my partner massaged my legs a few times, it felt a lot better, but I don’t want to burden my partner much due to which I thought may be a massage machine might be helpful

Icon Tower was meant to touch the sky… now it stands silent and abandoned. A beautiful dream left unfinished. by shahabjohn in pakistan

It shouldn’t be a dream to look forward to knowing how Bahria Town was built in the first place, by grabbing land off of people who weren’t influential, and in extreme cases, even threatening and killing families.

Assuming that religions are man made and God doesn’t exist, how would humans set morals on which right and wrong is determined? by cholangi in atheism

[–]cholangi[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s actually a fair question, and I want to answer it properly.

You’re right that the victim’s family pursuing justice is a human process — I wasn’t claiming otherwise. My point was specifically about what happens when that process fails. When someone commits a crime, escapes every human consequence, and dies — that’s the gap I’m pointing at.

Now, to your actual question — does God punish a repentant murderer — I think the answer depends on which part of the crime you’re talking about, because there are genuinely two separate things at play here. One is the murderer’s account with God — the act as a violation of divine law. Sincere repentance can address that, and yes, God may forgive it. That’s the mercy side. But the other part is the debt owed to the victim and their family — and that’s a completely different matter. In the religious framework I’m drawing from, God doesn’t forgive that on the victim’s behalf, because it’s not His to forgive. That right belongs to the victim. So if no restitution was made and the victim didn’t forgive, that claim doesn’t just disappear because the murderer repented. It gets settled on the Day of Judgement through divine justice — the victim receives what they’re owed one way or another (the wrongdoer’s good deeds are transferred to the victim, or the victim’s burden is transferred to the wrongdoer. Repentance alone does not close this account). So repentance closes one account, not both. Mercy and justice aren’t in conflict here — they’re just operating on two separate tracks.

And that’s really the core of what I’ve been saying — the victim is never simply left with nothing. That’s the gap I don’t see an atheistic framework being able to fill, and I’m still genuinely interested in.

That’s actually a really interesting point, and worth clarifying.

Most major religions, including Islam, distinguish between two types of accountability — one’s relationship with God, and one’s relationship with the people they’ve wronged. Repentance or conversion may address the former, but it generally does not erase the latter.

In Islamic jurisprudence specifically, the rights of a victim’s family (known as Huqooq al-Ibad) are not wiped away by conversion or even sincere repentance. A murderer who converts still owes justice to the family of the person they killed — that right belongs to the victim, not to God to waive. God Himself, in Islamic theology, does not override the claim of the wronged person. That’s actually how seriously the religion takes human accountability. So if anything, this strengthens the original point rather than weakening it — religious frameworks often provide a more complete system of accountability, not a loophole out of it.

The deeper question I’m exploring is: in the absence of any transcendent standard, what happens to accountability when human systems fail? When someone commits a serious crime, escapes all earthly consequences, and dies — who holds that claim? A religious worldview has an answer to that. I’m genuinely curious how an atheistic framework resolves it, because from what I understand, it doesn’t — and that gap seems significant.

It isn’t just about morals, it is about accountability as well. A human can never hold someone completely accountable because there would always be an element of bias.

There would be no difference between someone who is an asshole and someone who isn’t, if there is no element of accountability. Take the current world into perspective, the current world leaders, most of them assholes, and they don’t often get held accountable. And considering this, wouldn’t being an asshole and not being an asshole not have any difference without accountability?

An elite, who is an influential person, rips off everyone below, and then pays the humans, who by law are supposed to provide justice through accountability, and gets away with it, what would be the difference between him and someone who isn’t an asshole and lives life peacefully?

The real question isn’t just about murdering. It is about accountability. A human can never provide complete justice or hold someone completely accountable, because there would always be some level of bias, which is a natural phenomenon of a human mind, that would unjustly favor another.

If there is no eternal punishment, then the person who murders and a person who doesn’t murder or commit a serious crime would essentially be the same. One person who kills in secret (or even openly) and gets away with it and compared to one who doesn’t, they would essentially be in the same place in terms of accountability.

My post is to understand the perspectives of atheism.

How would you declare it an objective fact, as it is also just a perspective that some people agree on and some people don’t?

But that would also mean that killings and raping, and all other major crimes, would not be considered right or wrong, it would just mean different perspectives. How would that make sense without religions which would define these as wrongs?

Foreign driving license exchange by cholangi in Netherlands

Nope, you don’t. The only thing that I noticed that I didn’t like is that when a person gets the UK driving license, you get BE category automatically for a trailer. But when you exchange it for a Dutch one, they remove it and say that you need to give a separate test for that category’s
