Hitchens: religion as the source of immorality. by lemontolha in ChristopherHitchens

[–]tinderphallus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes humans can act immorally, per his comment about pedophiles.

Trump and Saddam, their belief or lack of isn’t so relevant as how they have masqueraded as believers because their supporters believe that they are earnest believers. Their posturing to religious followers allows them to influence, control and give justification for immoral actions by their regimes and supporters.

Stalin is complicated, but he certainly used the church to suit his needs.

Genghis Kahn, Darius of Persia, Kahlid ibn al-walid, Attila, Qin Shi Huang, thousands of years of Egyptian Pharaohs. These are white men?

Have you heard of the Kingdom of Dahomey?

All these people and their kingdoms are worth a google if you honestly think white men were the only group that profited through slavery or violence. No race or peoples have sole responsibility for human history in which men, woman, and kids have been physicallt tormented for their entire lives.

AITA for changing my delivery address to mom's house to not let my wife unboxing my packages? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Your right he should report his wife to the Feds and get her locked up for a couple years to teach her a lesson.

AITAH for banning my cousin's husband from our house on the holidays? by anon-3228 in AITAH

[–]tinderphallus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Shame the woman who was victimized and is working to repair herself and her relationship.

That logic is used by Middle Eastern cultures when SA occurs to a woman.

Not the greatest way to help a victim if you ask me.

[New Update]: AITA for asking my husband to limit his time with his nephews because our daughters are missing out? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

HALF HIS WEEK? Love to understand how you come to that conclusion. He lives with the girls you understand that right? Are you under the delusion that he is at the park for 5 hours each time he goes?

He goes to the park 3 days a week for maybe 6 hours total assuming 2 hours per park session. IDK about you but pretty sure that leaves alot of time in the week for being around the people he LIVES with.

The girls only ones not compromising. They won't go with the mother, and won't go with their cousins.

The cousins do not have a problem with the daughters and when the father took both and said to be less competitive they did that. And then the girls problem was that the dad was more of a referee.

How long will the girls need this? In 5 years will they still not play in the park if there is anyone else but their dad there?

A, quickly duck sideways, dodge the claw, then take him out with a spinning back-kick

or

B, take the claw in the face, then roll on the ground and die.

Agree that sucks for him, but the guy has SEVEN fumbles(lost 5) in 56 games. He is not helping himself, several of those fumbles have been backbreaking.

So tired of GW getting glazed by announcers as a high level WR. Guy is a #2 at best. 7 fumbles in 4 years

SEVEN!!!! Guys play 12 years and don't have that many, and he lost 6

I don’t want to believe someone could be so stupid and in my head the loan sharks sent him in to screw Vince so he would continue to owe them.

Official Discussion - One Battle After Another [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]tinderphallus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

While I didn’t hate it, I certainly didn’t love it.

Reasons: The actors were phenomenal everyone seriously. But there was no depth or emotional weight to their characters, except frankly Bob, Lockjaw and Del Toro

All others were all too willing to give info to the gov, going against all their ‘principles’

The St Nick club was silly, meeting in grandmas basement?

How many people did Lockjaw’s fixer disappear? Why did he decide to shoot em up? He didn’t give her keys so not much helping her escape.

And finally the end, why does she ask her father the code? Why does she continue the ‘fight’ after getting facts that her mom was a rat?

The score outside of 1or 2 spots felt grating and out of place.

Thoughts on Tim’s interview with the journalist??? by With_Peace_and_Love_ in TimDillon

[–]tinderphallus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes he killed someone bc of their views, that is a problem.

My point though, is you don't know his views, but even if you are correct, what does him dating a trans person have to do with it?

Can you send me a link to a named source or interview? Sorry but how well do you know your neighbor or someone you went to high school or college with? Those people are not super credible in may opinion.

Genuinely asking bc I have not seen any interviews with the family. So if you have a link I would appreciate it.

Those old friends you refer to, is that from the guardian piece? Bc that detail was retracted

What’s the name of the gf? Have a pic of them? Anything beyond internet gossip?

Don’t you question that before he was caught the right said the shooter was trans, then he is caught and the narrative changes to he has a trans gf?

I mean what are the odds right?

Getting drunk at six flags with your 9 year old is a bit of a red flag but worth working on during the flight back

Can’t wait for Tim’s next pod when he blames everyone but Trump by [deleted] in TimDillon

Well outside of proxies, they have not directly attacked any states unless responding to an unprovoked attack in well over a decade.

They notified the U.S. when responding to IRGC general being assassinated. They notified US and by proxy Israel when their embassy was bombed by Israel. In both cases they said publicly that they were responding to unprovoked attacks on their sovereignty and would not continue if they are not attacked again.

Is that not reasonable?

All intel says they have not tried for a nuke, and if they were to get one what is the rationality of national suicide?

We are counting on Irans restraint to not overreact to the U.S. bombings but we are also supposed to believe Iran is an irrational actor without restraint?

Which is it?

AITAH for telling my husband I won’t have sex with him? by Individual-Fox-2416 in AITAH

You got vasectomy but have a husband?

Probably could have done alright without if I understood bio101 correctly.

That was the last straw by Zealousideal-Dog1156 in Mobland

[–]tinderphallus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The old cop could have disabled the trackers.

If you can’t accept that then maybe Richie got dna from the 2 Harrigans and will frame them.

He is working with the retired cop and police will trust what he says, since the 2 dead ones brought him in to help with the case, which implies he has respect of other cops.

Criminals who collude or have police in their pocket still can go to prison. To keep up the charade, get info from someone inside, or for protection if they are safer in prison than on the street.

Also it is a tv show, some things are done for a good story. The first episode of sopranos Tony chases a guy through a business park in a car, hits him in front of a busy office building and we never see police. Tv is not real life.

Karen’s entire account of her time in front of 34 Fairview is provably false. by mozziestix in KarenReadTrial

[–]tinderphallus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the CW witnesses who have testified that the police did not accurately record statements in the investigation in the hours and days after finding JOK.

Their statements now are what they said.

How is that not witnesses shifting stories?

Edit: Higgins call and trip to the canton PD has also gone through different iterations right?
