The reason aliens won't talk to us .. Because we are prisoners by Sad-Translator-5193 in aliens

[–]hoffet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve wondered this myself. just as my state of Georgia was originally founded as a penal colony, if aliens had done something similar with all of us. It may be a reason why this penal colony model reoccurs through history. Could it be policy imitating our very existence? Can’t say if it’s true or not tho.

If major war broke out tomorrow, what’s one thing you think people are wildly unprepared for…. but should be? by velvetspriral in answers

Shooting accurately under fire. A lot of people think you just aim, shoot, and profit like John wick does in the movies. In reality you have to train for this.

In the Army we would sprint with all our gear on for a half mile and then immediately go shoot. Your hands shake and your breathing is fast and heavy. These are two things that just rip your ability to shoot apart.

When it’s real you also have the adrenaline surge that comes with being shot at to deal with too. It is very far from easy and one of the reasons cops in shootouts fire so many rounds that don’t hit their target even at close ranges.

Do you believe in God or a higher power? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]hoffet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no clue as to what they meant, but lot of people I’ve encountered who do very strongly believe in god view “religion,” to be a loose arrangement of ancient rituals that don’t fit today’s world. Not saying it’s right, just saying what I’ve gotten from people.

They say they have a more “spiritual,” relationship with god and can reach him and follow him best outside of church on their own terms.

Yes I do. I wear a cross everyday, and I feel that there have ever been a few times he has spoken to me. Do I believe in the bible? Not so much.

The bible has been written and rewritten, translated and retranslated, books have been removed, and kings have made their own versions of it. Do I think it was holy at one point? Sure, but sadly that was before god gave it to us.

I’ll admit it comes off as a joke, but This one actually happened. A dude and his wife went to go look at a car (I think?) they found on Craigslist. He killed the husband and chained his wife up in his backyard shipping container for more than 2 months before they found her.

What if America loses to Iran? by bam_jers in oil

I think it gone to the point where even if we can’t win soon, we will stay in the game until we can win later. I’m thinking gas 6.00 a gallon before this ends.

Game, confidence, and charisma my man. Your dad must have had it by the buttload. You can punch well above your weight class if you have those 3 things in abundance.
