Try the game Warewolf (same concept goes by many other names). Most people find it really hard to lie, even if it is about nothing important at all and part of the agreed “social” rules.

Never heard of Soarpunk before. Clearly seen it and this made it click. Thanks a lot for the new word and the concepts it brought with it. Makes me feel oddly inspired.

I took some college courses, backpacked and lived for a short while in Vietnam and tried to find myself and what I want to pursue in the future. Or just have a one man consultancy company. You worked freelance.

Who is making you put it on your CV?

Which is why I said “some would argue”. I’m not trying to decide who is following Christ the best. Just saying, it’s absurd to not include them in the term Christians, which I see people from the US do all the time (so I’m assuming it’s a US thing).

Catholics… ARE Christians. The original, some would argue.

Shame about the real world parts. Ruins it for me these days.

Still a revenue higher than zero. It’s absurd and idiotic, I know. But it still is.

Are you serious? I’m not defending them. I’m saying, if you have a religion based on stone-age ideas that are not allowed to change (because it’s a religion and God doesn’t really exist so he can’t talk to you) there is no coherent way you can change the rules. It’s not like a sports group. Only “God” can change the rules. Don’t change the rules. BREAK them. Ignore “God”.

I’m not sure why you are so insistent that I defend child molesters. You accused me of belonging to a church. I get the feeling this might be more true of you. Again, I believe in no god. I belong to no church. I defend no molester (child or otherwise).

I hope you have a nice weekend. I hold no animosity towards you. We are on the same side. We only disagree about semantics and human behaviour. Don’t be angry.

I’m not afraid nor am I a member of any church. I am firm in my stance that there is no god. Small or little G. If you read my post again you will see that my point is, even if you are going to go to hell, you are obliged to report abuse. Again, report it. Fucking report it. If the cost is your eternal salvation, you will fucking report it.

They is my point. There is a cost to everything. No matter what you believe, be ready to pay it.

Next time, please read what someone says and not what you want to believe they say. The world would be much better that way.

I’d argue, and this isn’t easy, the church can continue to use the rule. After all, it is from “God”. Who are we to define the rules. But any priest (and above) that doesn’t report it, is an awful human being. Stick to dogma, but accept the consequences of being a human. If a child is abused and you can stop it, pay the price to make it stop. Child is safe; you go to hell - fair deal. No mater what, someone is going to suffer. Make the “saintly” call. And make it known!

Not one. Look at the invitees.

I don’t have a dog in the race. I just think you are two big dorks and I love this discussion. I want at least a 20 minute YouTube video of the correct answer and why the other is wrong!

I feel like just-in-time is one of the things that makes most intuitive sence. You used to tie 1M in Inventory and now you tie 100k. Stick the other 900k in a bank account (worst case scenario) and collect the interest.

I speak with authority, but I learnt about it this very day. :)

Please be ChatGPT nonsense, please be ChatGPT nonsense. I’m not Googling that shit. :((((

FAFO.

I hate to be that guy, but it’s neurodivergent. :) neurodiverse is another thing. Everyone is diverse but not everyone is divergent.

More likely, your late’ish habits and searches combined with age and another mountain of data correlated with people that have the same thought. We are no snowflakes.

Edit: I should say, if this example is true. I’m not saying you are lying, just that if you are, it’s not a “gotcha”. This thread is making me paranoid! :)
