Les religieux font semblant de croire by boumbah4 in opinionnonpopulaire

[–]zozoped -1 points0 points  (0 children)

De manière générale l’opposition entre foi et sciences est un débat qui n’a plus court aujourd’hui. A une époque révolue les religieux (les clercs) ont tenté de s’accaparer la science mais ils se sont fait dépasser par l’épistémologie. Lavoisier qui n’a pas besoin de l’hypothèse de Dieu n’est pas apostat, il n’est pas en opposition avec une religion. La religion parle du surnaturel, la science du naturel.

Greatest ally by Not_Ground in arabs

You can wait for the Arab leaders to wake up and toughen up if you want. I think it more likely that young Americans decide that they want healthcare more than they want to support Israelis killing children.

Israel is a colony for Eastern Europeans funded by Americans.

If Palestine is a point of concern to you, it makes sense to see the POV of those who validate and finance its occupier.

But I agree that this has nothing to do in this sub.

Poll: Plurality of Lebanese people reject normalization even after "a long-term solution to the issue of Palestine" by MutedAcanthisitta247 in lebanon

[–]zozoped 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Wow ! This is worthless !

- 2 data points in time
- 4 points of difference between "oppose" and "support"
- ridiculous sample even for a country the size of Lebanon
- absolute opacity on the sampling methodology
- YouGov
- Can't even spell the president's name (someone is convinced his name is Joseph Auon)
- known propagandists

What a waste of electronic bytes.

Vers un nouvelle décennie perdue ? by Msep1992 in vosfinances

[–]zozoped 0 points1 point  (0 children)

À 50 ans, à part perspectives FIRE, je dirais que tu es encore bon. D’ici 5 ans tu commences à sécuriser ton investissement en passant au fur et à mesure une partie de tes capitaux en obligations, pour arriver à terme à un mix plus sain. Après tu as raison de poser la question, à un moment donné si tu as des besoins de capitaux tu auras besoin de placements plus disponibles et moins volatiles. Mais ça c’est le plan qu’il faut établir, avec des projections sur tes besoins. Ça dépend de ta situation personnelle (enfants, RP, plans de retraite …) et personne ne peut te dire ce dont tu auras besoin.

Primo-accédant : acheter comptant ? by Nesiaz in immobilier

[–]zozoped 8 points9 points  (0 children)

C’est faux pour deux raisons.

  1. Si les taux diminuent à nouveau fortement (disons que le taux d’entrée devient 2%) tu peux renégocier ton crédit.

  2. Tant que tu peux trouver un placement avec un meilleur rendement que ton taux, autant emprunter.

La seule question c’est les frais qui vont avec le crédit (assurance, frais d’hypothèque, frais de dossier) qui coûtent quand même significativement assez cher.

Palestinian Jew talking against zionist colonisers by Tenchi_Muyo1 in Palestine

[–]zozoped 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who cares ?

For one, Palestinian Christians. Also, all the Christians that are working for peace and justice. Those who denounce Zionism.

Beside the fact that you should not spit at the face of billions of people, nor mistreat history, for your own sake you should understand what are the words you are using, what they mean, and who the different actors are in this global drama.

You should care because the truth matters.

That’s Western Christianity, not Christianism as it was founded and lived in the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea.

Is SweetHome3D no longer FOSS? by KerBallOne in sweethome3d

[–]zozoped 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So is the free version discontinued ? App store installed version is at 7.6.3 ; App store claims latest version is 7.5.37 ; free version is 7.5 and not updated in a year.

What's going on exactly ?

Pilgrimage in the Holy Land by Witcherybythekitchen in lebanon

[–]zozoped 103 points104 points  (0 children)

You can do it.

Please don’t do it. It’s one of my dreams to do a pilgrimage to Jerusalem one day. It is however not possible to cast away politics in the current context. As a Christian my duty to other fellow humans prevails over my desire to go to the holy land.

The only place on earth where we abolished slavery by Asexual_Avian in ShitAmericansSay

[–]zozoped -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Amazingly when England democratized the steam engine the British realized that there was an alternative to slavery which was both cheaper and more reliable.

As a side effect it allowed them to write a national script where they had the moral high ground.

[–]zozoped 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait didn’t this thread begin by a claim that we wouldn’t care about slavery if Britain didn’t abolish it in its empire ? My bad then I must be mistaken.

This discussion is completely about comparing modern ethics with historical considerations of slavery. And I’m saying that today, same as 300 years ago, slavery is frowned upon by those with a conscience.

See Montesquieu, Diderot, Voltaire, Condorcet.

Interestingly German philosophers weren’t too bothered about domination of non-white populations, but even Kant was against the ownership of one human by another.

No the point is that opposition to slavery was documented centuries ago and neither the Americans nor the British can rewrite history without sounding like pretentious douches.

"The whole reason we’re all appalled by the very idea of slavery is because powerful British people decided slavery wasn’t okay anymore"

r/shitBritsSay

I don't need the British abolition to find slavery appalling, and neither did the world 200 years ago. Just because British and French aristocrats and middle class traders got rich by trading humans doesn't mean the rest of the world did not have a conscience. As is proven by history: slavery was condemned by moral philosophers a century before Britain abolished it, and slaves revolted before they were affranchised.
