Is there actually a hierarchy when it comes to various biblical rules and laws scattered throughout the bible? It seems like the ten commandments should trump the other inane babble, but I'm not sure if there is any formal method among theologians. Not that I expect it to be some solvent for crazy assholes who just pick and choose their beliefs from the bible, but I am curious.

It's not really a formal hierarchy, but Jesus Himself answers the question of 'what is the most important commandment' rather directly, and I've had some success quoting it against bigots:Matthew 22:35-40 posted:35 One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Mark 12:28-31 posted:28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?” Luke 10:25-28 posted:25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

Those are good examples, I was going to use Judge not lest ye be judged. But I don't know if I really want to touch the poop. I work with one of the guys in that exchange, he actually sits right behind me and its like arguing with a wall.

In my experience that line doesn't really work, because most of the people you'd want to use it on believe that they're personally flawless, so being judged in return is totally fine.

She's great in person, just one of those people who's not too internet-savvy from my interpretation. And thanks, I definitely will! I'm in NoHo a lot lately so I'll stop in and say hi.

I have to break from tradition here and share a story of smart social media. You know those related links that pop up when you open a Facebook link now? Generally I find myself annoyed by them, but I have to give them credit. Someone in my feed liked that article that we discussed before (I think in the last version of the thread) about how many perpetrators of mass shootings were on or had been on psychiatric drugs. I was blown away to find this as the top related link. Bravo, Facebook.

My nephew's aunt just posted a picture of him wearing a White Pride shirt she bought him. I don't know her that well but I think she is more ignorant than outright racist 'cause I've never seen her post something like that before. They are also part First Nations/Metis. I hope he doesn't wear it in public because he is bound to get his rear end kicked if he does.

That depends, are they in the US or Canada? Unless they live in a place with a significant minority population, they'll probably be wildly popular for it

The ironic part is how these lists of bullshit pronouns come across as incredibly demeaning to actual trans* or gender-neutral social issues. What trans* person in their right mind is going to look at that list and think that they aren't being belittled by assholes referring to each other as "booself?"

Yeah, but think of the feelings of the boring cisgendered kids! They have nothing else in their life, so they have to come up with ways to be oppressed! Plus when the gently caress did my dog need his own pronouns? "Dog" isn't a gender, it is a species.

The problem is that every special snowflake on the internet that thinks they're Truly And Genuinely Unique wants a special pronoun that applies to only them and people they decided to include in their category. It gives them something else to feel oppressed about because, as we all know, the most oppressed group of people are unemployed, 20-something upper middle class white kids with nothing to do all day but talk about how special they are with other special people. That being said, my pronoun of choice is butt. I demand to forever be called butt/buttes/butteself. edit: typo-riddled disaster ToxicSlurpee has a new favorite as of 08:11 on May 14, 2014 |
