Ive gotta say this, this kind of stuff drives me nuts. They have sex in a theater and then right afterwards, without showering or cleaning off his cum-dick or her washing her genitals from all of their sex fluids, they go straight to dinner? That's loving gross. They're the people eating next to you at Denny's that smell like sex and body fluid and cigarettes and shame.

I hope they at least had sex quietly. People using their phones in a cinema is bad enough, I can't imagine trying to truly appreciate the cinematic art like the refined movie-goer I am when the people behind me are making all kinds of sex noises. Harumph.

And Augustine of Hippo specifically warned against naive, literal readings of scripture. Dan Lietha and his ilk are at least 1600 years behind the times.

It's specific to American schools of Protestantism (like Lietha's). In particular, I should add, Jews and literalism don't mix. Rabbis have been arguing about what such-and-such passage really means for as long as there have been rabbis. That's a decent chunk of what the Talmud is. Scholarly interpretation is pretty core to Judaism.

That sure sounds like a lot more enjoyable and mentally stimulating way to examine texts than to say "It says she was made from a rib so I guess that's what happened, case closed".

As I understand it it's also what you spend all your time doing if you actually go to seminary or divinity school or whatever, but Lietha is probably one of those guys who sneers at ivory-tower ministers because really all you need is a bible which you have read at least once

There are actually thousands of Jewish and Christian books dedicated to interpreting the bible, and I'd like to use them to bury Dan Liatha under.

Jerusalem posted:Agreed. Of course let's not forget that the whole year before the 2020 Election will also feature Ted Rall posting cartoon after cartoon ripping on whoever the Democratic candidate is and insisting they're worse than Hitler while barely mentioning Trump even exists. Oh for sure, but Vlad Shawl being an idiot doesn't mean the democrats aren't going to completely poo poo the bed again.

So, the guy on the left got enough to purchase a single McDonald's franchise? According to this you will need at least $500000 to be considered. That amount of money would go far in supporting a family of four. (Seriously, do people actually refer to meals from McD as "a McDonald's" in this fashion?)

Also, according to this, the market value of the corporation is around $100 billion. Even allowing for hyperbole, it seems unlikely that any individual would have enough liquid assets on hand to buy the entire thing outright. Tenebrais posted:Yes? All the time? "A [burger or other menu item] from McDonald's". "A McDonald's" sounds like it refers to a restaurant that is part of the McD chain.

At the very least, remind me to put it up as a Best Edit candidate when the Gaybie repository goes up. Pants Donkey posted:This isn't to excuse democrats giving us lovely candidates, but Rall also criticizes whatever form of protest pops up so you literally cannot win with him unless you're running a "Ted Rall is Amazing" march. I wonder. If you did have a "Ted Rall is the Best" march, would he inevitably complain about it because it didn't draw in a large enough (any) crowd, or would he take the Trump approach and convince himself that the entire world attended? Crabtree posted:Imagine what would happen if there was a decent out of the blue candidate that wasn't Oprah and he actually had to find something on this person. "I wrote them a letter detailing my plans for everybody else to rise up in Revolution, but give ME, Ted Rall, the credit for leading and organizing it. But they never wrote me back, clearly they do not care about their constituents."

Pants Donkey posted:Literally nothing is good enough for Rall. He simply cannot wrap his head around the idea that humans are flawed and working in a flawed system, so naturally every person in history is going to have something negative you can bring up. Is he or isn't he basically a Russian at this point? Like I know he accepts dark rubles now, but how far is he on the path to being like Steven Segal?
