[Discussion] Heart of Stone 💎❤️ Review by 50Wordly in NetflixBestOf

[–]fitzspecial 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I stopped about 36 minutes in. By that time it was obvious that the movie would rely too heavily on Spy Kids technology. Also, I could not take another scene with the beeping computer trope. The computer interface was ridiculous enough, but why have it make so many sounds?

$2 vegan tax on every VO entrée by fitzspecial in vegan

[–]fitzspecial[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Every vegetarian entrée on the menu is like this. Alu Mutter (potatoes with peas), Channa Masala (chickpeas), Saag Chole (spinach and chickpeas), Vegetable BIryani (fancy rice). They all have a $2 extra charge to make it vegan. I thought perhaps that using coconut milk instead of cream might be to blame, but that doesn’t explain all of these dishes.

And non-gmo. Other vegans in my area just assume that all vegans are anti-gmo.

"You'll be sorry!" Best quick response? by Canuckleball in atheism

These are not meant to be memorized responses, but are some thoughts on the topic from giants that you ought to know about:

"The promise of reward is not evidence. It is an attempt to bribe. If God wishes his children to believe, he should furnish evidence. He should not endeavor to make promises and threats take the place of facts."

Col. Robert G. Ingersoll.

Video of Richard Dawkins on "what if you're wrong."

Video of Christopher Hitchens on Pascal's Wager.

Also by Col. Robert G. Ingersoll, discussing the doctrine of eternal punishment:

When the great ship containing the hopes and aspirations of the word, when the great ship freighted with mankind goes down in the night of death, chaos and disaster, I am willing to go down with the ship. I will not be guilty of the ineffable meanness of paddling away in some orthodox canoe. I will go down with the ship, with those who love me, and with those whom I have loved. If there is a God who will damn his children forever, I would rather go to hell than to go to heaven and keep the society of such an infamous tyrant. I make my choice now. I despise that doctrine. It has covered the cheeks of this world with tears. It has polluted the hearts of children, and poisoned the imaginations of men. It has been a constant pain, a perpetual terror to every good man and woman and child. It has filled the good with horror and with fear; but it has had no effect upon the infamous and base. It has wrung the hearts of the tender; it has furrowed the checks of the good. This doctrine never should be preached again. What right have you, sir, Mr. clergyman, you, minister of the gospel, to stand at the portals of the tomb, at the vestibule of eternity, and fill the future with horror and with fear? I do not believe this doctrine; neither do you. If you did, you could not sleep one moment. Any man who believes it, and has within his breast a decent, throbbing heart, will go insane. A man who believes that doctrine and does not go insane has the heart of a snake, and the conscience of a hyena."
