I wouldn’t play this game because of my very “woke” anti gun and anti-war sentiments. I think whenever I see a game ad with someone holding a gun, what a sad thing that the video game industry has evolved into - everyone has to use a gun to solve their problems or get “points” in life. Pretty disturbing when you see how young males are groomed to be gun lovers. And really, it’s the worst possible sort of image to be feeding them.

No one with any self worth or dignity should try to live their life by what the “bible” says. No real human could, and it is totally full of contradictions and hypocrisy at every turn.

Ugh not me. I’ve been through the SLC temple and it’s one horrifyingly bland white cold interior throughout. If that’s what mormons see as their ‘destiny’ in the afterlife, I’m kinda glad I’ll be roasting in hell instead. To me that kind of austerity doesn’t smack of godliness, it smacks of sterility and coldhearted lifelessness.

Apparently he’s not just a good Christian, but a great one - he sucks AND swallows. A true Christian, a truly valuable person, is one who gives and enjoys physical sexual pleasure. Not someone who disdains human sexuality and disavows any human desires. It’s all just sex - no labels are needed, it doesn’t matter who is giving a blowjob to whom, as long as people are doing it and enjoying it. That’s the only thing that matters.

The only true grave threats to human dignity are the sickness of religious nutjobbery and instituionalized bigotry, which is what the Vatican (a shitty place if ever there was one) is espousing with this horrid document. The right to abortion, the right to surrogacy and to have access to whatever gender one wishes, these are moral imperatives that drive our species forward toward dignity - only a total shithead idiot would ever think otherwise under any circumstances.

No. I didn’t much like Reddit but I have never had so many problems with a social media site as I have with Lemmy. Right now there’s 17 comments in my notifications page, but no way to access them because it just says “404 - page not found.” And there’s no way to view or erase them.

Lemmy has tons of connectivity problems also. On a scale of 1 to 10, I’d have to rate it minus 100. I’ve left Kbin and actually am no longer even using Lemmy but once in a grand while. I’m looking for other sites that will work better.

With the same reasoning it’s never logical to assume that things we can’t always identify or put a label on are strange or foreign or from other planets.

The most logical, and most mentally healthy mind, would first try to explore the most plausible explanations and first assume there is no miraculous visitation involved.

If a mountain springs up in the middle of the Pacific and a comic sans message pops up saying LDS is the true religion," I can guarantee it’s because the multi-billion dollar corporation called the LDS Church has put money into a new kind of marketing campaign.

And if you’re stupid enough to give that corporation 10 percent of your income, maybe you’re too stupid to be trying to solve UFO mysteries in the first place.

Actually he’s an octopus so he’s always been a lot more of a hands-on person.

Oooohkaay this is all about as slimy and gross as human communications can get.

Here they want to force all schools to have the Ten Commandments posted on every wall. Because god knows, kids aren’t already feeling puny and guilty enough, we need to show them just how much they don’t measure up to god’s standards at every turn.

If there is a human alive who has never broken a commandment I’ve yet to meet them. And I don’t live my life by a fictitious set of rules anyway - let alone a list that no one, not even Jesus, could actually succesfully live up to. (and to my mind, no one with any intellect would want to anyway).

I don’t think people think much about the actuality of what Darwin said or the truth of their own animalness and being part of the animal kingdom.

It always irks me to see an anti-evolutionist pointing to or making fun of a picture of an ape because, to them, being compared to great animals is some sort of smutty filth. I hate to think what kind of brutality they enact on cats and dogs around them, or even kids.

The idea that we’re part of the Animal kingdom, to me, is such a fascinating and great concept. I just do not get people who are insulted or “turned off” by that idea at all.

I appreciate that. I’ve had a lot of scorn heaped on my head for being a “Boomer,” as if it was sacriligious of me to pick being born in the 50s - surprisingly, I had very little say in it.

And I personally don’t see that I did anything to make the world worse, beyond just living my life the way every one else did. Did I support oil and gas extraction? Well I drove a car - as a kid I never even thought about such things.

Did I help pollute the earth? I came from a family of human consumers so I’m sure I did. I’m not saying we don’t deserve our share of blame.

Yes I’m an older person but I worked hard and did my best in life, I don’t know more I could do. I never engaged in fighting or war with other people or hurt anyone, if I could help it.

I have a spotless driving record, not even a citation. But no one says, “thank you for being a safe driver,” all i get are scornful comments like, “whaddya want, a metal?” “Who cares.”

You can be a good and contributing tax payer your whole life, and someone who has always treated others with respect and acted carefully, and yet still be the target of total scorn and unreasonable hate just because of the generation you came from.

I only wish they could be raptured so we could be rid of these ignorant fools once and for all. Can you imagine having to be “raptured” along with them, and having to spend eternity with such self-righteous self serving egotistical assholes? I can’t think of anything more like hell and less like heaven.

Left behind? Thank you I’ll gladly stay here and enjoy the peace and quiet of an earth cleansed of ignorance and stupidity and dark-age beliefs in supernatural dieities.

I’m sorry for her and for you and your ignorance in believing that humans need to go around proselyting to each other about a fictional horrid deity who cares less about human life than causing men to murder each other in the name of religious nut-jobbery.

I hope your family member never succeeds in this horrible exercise of human vanity and terror. Missionaries are equivalent to walking dog excrement and that’s exactly how I perceive them. I hope this person gets very ill and never gets to complete their so-called mission - a mission of perversion if ever there was one.

Why does every photo of trump make him appear to be harfing up a hairball. What an ugly countenance!

This blasphemous misgogynist freak hawking bibles is like Jeffrey Dahmer going around giving parents tips on childcare. And the aim is the same in both cases - raise your kids to be overstuffed bigot freaks so we can kill them and dine on them and make our names off their dead bloated corpses.

I’d much rather have my kid sing songs about Satan and give fealty to Satan than ever think that there is any truth to christ, or god, or any of the other insane institutions of christian nut-jobbery.

That’s extremely sad and worse than almost any form of child abuse I’ve ever read about. Forcing these dumb gullible kids to believe in christ-y nonsense which not only will never help them deal with real life, but will poison their minds against other people and polarize their viewpoints into arthritic rigidity and disgusting bigotry. It’s sick.

I’ve always considered Ohio a worthless bastion of assholery but I never thought they would stoop to such horrible brainwashing of youngsters. Any parent worth being called a parent would and should pull their kids out of that school and that horrible abusive situation as fast as humanly possible.

Just as long as it happens is all I care about. It’s a process, like anything else it just takes successive generations of breeding the ignorance out of our genes. I think there will always be some kind of religious insitutions around, people seem to need to believe in things that are fantastic and supernatural.

They couldn’t even escape the pull of it in “Dune,” there was plenty of religion even in a place where it seems to have no great purpose. People are just that way - they are willing to put their belief in crazy stuff.

The bible. PHHBBLlllpptt. I’d sooner use the Anarchists Cookbook as a guide to how to lead my life. People who say they follow the guidelines of the bible are liars, because nobody could follow all the commands in the bible and still exist, it’s impossible. We’re not saints or angels and we were never meant to be.

We’re the rough smut of beasts, as Walt Whitman put it. We’re human animals and we shouldn’t pretend to anything more, we need to start helping each other and realizing we’re in this mess together and no fictional supernatural being is going to come to our rescue or provide us any sort of comfort.

Hmmm Jesus is probably more well behaved, but hello kitty is fluffier and wears nice bows. It’s a tough one. How about Jesus H. Kitty. Combine the best of both into one super-overstuffed fluffy architype.
