Having seen a solar eclipse back in 2017, I can say it was truly an spectacle. But I don’t see traveling anywhere just to see another one - I mean it’s interesting, but it lasts maybe two minutes and then it’s over and back to normal. And I don’t see spending all that money when you can get the best view of it watching news coverage on TV.
Hmm. Not sure how to feel because honestly, I feel this way also. I do love animals (ummm not in the physical way) and I believe all life is sacred. After all humans are animals also. But at the same time, I love the carnivorous side of being an omnivore - I couldn’t imagine not being able to eat steaks, ribs, chicken wings and other meat with bones and veins in it.
But that doesn’t mean I think animals deserve to die - just that I have to live with the un-resovable contradiction of being both an animal lover and a meat lover. It is yummy and there’s nothing the first bite of a juicy steak or crispy chicken wing. Thank you for your sacrifice, clucky, bessie, and porky.
I did a spongebob thing and poured myself 400 glasses of lemonade with little umbrellas for breakfast. April Fools on me, I’m not even thirsty!! AH HA HA HA HA oh man, I’m going away with the nice men in white coats now…
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.
Well I’m sure it wasn’t Israel’s fault, he probably got in the way of their bullets. Of course killing humans at Easter is what the Jewish state is best at, so we should shove our easter eggs up our butt and thank jesus for this wonderful world of bloodshed and murder that israel helps make happen.
Well it’s sort of like Mohammed - I’m sure that a person with that name DID exist around that time at some point. And maybe they were a teacher and a self-proclaimed “speaker for god.” But so was Charles Manson and David Koresh and Jim Jones and Joseph Smith and many other horrible cult leaders.
There never has been any “god” in the way we mean it, so there could never actually be such a thing as the son of God, nor any need for one. If we were smart as a species, we’d see why it’s more important to support human beings than go around believing in religious nut jobbery.
I expect that kind of reply from a woman-hating and self-hating person like you. So, I don’t really value your opinion very much.
No I’m not saying the West is much better, but at least here we treat women with the same dignity as men. We spit on all of them, but at least we TRY to say we treat men and women equally.
No the situation is not much better anywhere in the world.
I’ve never understood exactly what makes the male sex supposedly so superior. From what I’ve seen they are decidedly mediocre as a sex, very egotistical, gun loving, hate-filled, quick to anger, slow witted and quite dirty minded, with brains that make war and other filth. Extraordinarily gutter-type people.
All of us are in the pre-world War III era and we’re gearing up quickly for it. In many ways it’s already underway, and we’re just now starting to get ready go make it even more massive and global.
Welcome to the 21st century where men have evolved into nothing more than war mongering utter pieces of filthy shit. This is what will be all our legacy, a world scorched into oblivion and not a trace of humanity anywhere left on the planet. Perhaps that’s for the best, really.
Settler leader should be stoned and beheaded for licking Nazi buttholes and savoring the taste. Israel has become worse than Nazi germany at its most utterly grotesque.
Just because no one holds you accountable for doing it, how can you justify being sick and evil enough to want to flog or stone somebody. What is going on with these middle eastern assholes?? Is it something in the water they drink or the food they eat that turns these bigoted males into such flagrantly mentally abberant pieces of utter walking dog shit??
Well, my advice is, if you’re a middle-eastern woman, arm yourself any way you can and strike first. Throw the first stone, you might just crush the worthless skull of one of these misogynistic women-hating anti-human pieces of maggot infested filth, and do the world an immense favor.
All of our countries should be imposing bans on ANTYHING being imported from Israel ever again, and from anything they produce being brought overseas. Israel is a cesspool of murderous hate, and we cannot and should not support hem in any way, in any form, at any time.
What a sick idea that we should celebrate a human being nailed to a cross, yuck. Another example of how religious beliefs are grotesque in the extreme and I’d rather believe in humanity instead of some supernatural shit like this.
There was no such person as Jesus and there never has been and there never as any such thing as “god” either. Stop being ignorant blind fools, people. Leave your shackles of religious nut-jobbery behind, go out and enjoy life and have some fun. Turn this “good Friday” into a GREAT Friday.
It’s a real gift to be able to change what you’re dreaming from a nightmare into something pleasant. I wish I had that ability, I have nightmares most nights and have had ever since I was a kid (and am now 65).
On the one hand my nightmares are of such ghastly horrors and grotesque and disgusting - but on the other hand they’ve given me some great plots to some of my most horrifying stories.
Well best of luck with it and I hope you do get the answers that you need (and that your mom gets off your back!).
If as you suggest the AI in question can feel pain and suffer, of course I would care and not want it to have to experience that. Why would I? I’m not a sadist or a monster, or a Utah legislator without any human feelings.
It’s like the scenario, “if you could get away with murdering one person, would you do it?” Of course I wouldn’t!!! Whether or not I could get away with it, I still have to live with myself and what I do. And I have a thing called “morality” that I live with and a respect for life that goes beyond my own self-concern.
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.
