woah, you got me, i was expecting cake

Yeah, true, wiith a remark that Christianity was not an institution in the very beginning. There were self-organized rebellious group of people without strict hierarchy. Then as it became more popular, tyrants turned it on their side to support existing world order. A classic story

As the things should be

One individual can live with religion or spirituality in religious form, but not humanity as a whole. There were experiments in totalitarian countries to violently exterminate religion, they didn’t end up well. Usually it’s brainwashing and freedom of conscience denial

Seems like they are great people

Not a fan of licorice?

I don’t know how modern progressive religious communities address these very important mental health and lack of self-love issues, but i grew up in a conservative one, and even there i remember reading or hearing interpretation of a phrase “love your neighbor as yourself” as you should love yourself as well—and if you don’t, you would not be able to love others. I’m sure that what you’ve said has a place to be, but community and people around play higher role than abstract beliefs imo

Easy answers to easy questions

I think they’re not real, (un)fortunately. But yeah, if someone wants that, why not?

I had the same with Gael. All his combos cut into my muscle memory

Why does it recognize that file as js?

Seen this meme but with Solaire as DS3 worm lol

I freaked out on sir Alonne runback and killed every mob 12 times until they disappeared. Then killed Alonne in the very next try

“Cool spaceship”—i thought, and then noticed what sub this is…

Did you train these rats to maul anyone who tries to arrest you?

Would disagree here. There is no such thing as “Christians as a whole”. There are different denominations whose beliefs could be almost opposite. I heard that in the US, on one side, there’s the conservative Catholic church, and various protestants who usually are even more conservative. Yet even there, one woman bishop stood up for trans kids before Trump. But in my city (I live in Finland) the mainstream Evangelical church is presented on pride parades. I’m not overly concerned about church as an institution—what worries me is that religious oppressed minorities feel additional pressure from the left-wing atheists. That’s terrble imo. I’m not a religious myself and don’t go to church, but my rule is simple: You’re christian, or muslim, or buddhist, etc? Fine. You’re bigot? Fuck you.

How about that
