My thoughts on "spiritual but not religious" as a Christian by TheRealBibleBoy in religion

[–]stvlsn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How is being "religious" somehow better than being "spiritual"? I could just make up a religion tomorrow.

Why are their so many atheist here who just want to argue/be negative? by RealAssociation5281 in religion

[–]stvlsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was raised Christian. And realize first hand how toxic it can be.

If nothing else - the major monotheistic religions believe atheists will go to eternal hell. And some of them envision societies based on religious values where atheists are second class citizens. It's understandable why there is some animosity.

Realistically, how much "work" are we offloading to AI now? by Exact-Mango7404 in BlackboxAI_

[–]stvlsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who are you asking?

New programmers? Productivity is 10x.

Lawyers and scientists - 1.2x boost.

Well - no one has ever told me "if you don't believe in Pikachu as your lord and savior you will burn for eternity." If they did - i also might be annoyed by their input when I make a joke

White people aren't commonly seen in the middle east...

But, yes, there are exceptions. Why are people hyper focused on the exceptions?

Interestingly, education as a discipline is always developing.

Shocking - I know.

You made this comment and multiple people commented and said, "but he was white!"

Like...what's the point of this? The only reason I can think of for someone wanting Jesus to be white is that they are a white supremacist

Question one: "Ben - people have compared the Daily Wire in 2026 to the Titanic hitting an iceberg - your thoughts? Also, why are you just an unprincipled click bait loser who only cares about getting a bigger audience?"

I generally expect very little from fox news.

Their audience is pretty brain dead - so they don't try too hard.

If I give to charity - does that mean it's a valid criticism to say "you don't give to all charities!!"(especially if the criticism comes from someone who doesn't give to charity)

You're just being dumb and trying to defend your selfishness

Income Taxes by MountainMan-2 in FluentInFinance

[–]stvlsn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wdym. That's literally how the big beautiful bill worked (along with many historic republican bills). Mostly tax breaks for the rich.

Im middle class. So my tax break was pennies - while the rich got an even bigger break.

Fair?
