I didn't know who Anton was, but turns out he was a huge sack of poo poo:quote:it was not easy to be an intellectual supporting Donald Trump for president in 2016. One of the few who did wrote under the pseudonym of Publius Decius Mus and penned his manifesto “The Flight 93 Election,” in September 2016. Decius explained his analogy: “2016 is the Flight 93 election: charge the cockpit or you die. … To compound the metaphor: a Hillary Clinton presidency is Russian Roulette with a semi-auto. With Trump, at least you can spin the cylinder and take your chances.”

Owlofcreamcheese posted:Jesus put a curse on a tree because he was mad at it i thought the gospel that included this story didn't make the cut for the "official" bible even if it did, it wouldn't be hard to justify: jesus is, according to the bible, human. he has emotions, and is allowed to be angry, and the bible doesn't consider trees people. if he cursed a person because he was mad at them you'd have a harder time, but the guy ran a herd of pigs off a cliff for the greater good and pigs are at least closer to people than trees are.

Tim Raines IRL posted:It's been a long time since I watched much Simpsons, but what I remember is that Apu was generally a sympathetic and relatively smart character who spoke with an accent and was of obvious middle eastern descent. Stereotypes are dumb and toxic, but that does pretty exactly describe a really significant percentage of bodega owners I've known. What do they want? A white guy? A dark guy with no accent? Shocking that a dude who refers to Apu as "obvious middle eastern" thinks stereotypes aren't a big deal

Owlofcreamcheese posted:Yeah, out of whole cloth because it's such a stupid story and they needed to try to explain it being something other than temper tantrum jesus. Nothing in the story mentions or references it in any way and it's clearly a story of "hey, prayer can do some great stuff" that makes a plot hole in later christianity. I'm not saying that it's a definitive interpretation but you don't get to pretend it's stupid on its face

evilweasel posted:i thought the gospel that included this story didn't make the cut for the "official" bible It's in mark AND matthew. It is also the chapter where jesus does a weird little comedy act with some guy: 45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law, and about whom the prophets also wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.” 46 “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip. 47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, “Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.” 48 “How do you know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, “I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.” 49 Then Nathanael declared, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the king of Israel.” 50 Jesus said, “You believe[a] because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.” 51 He then added, “Very truly I tell you,[b] you[c] will see ‘heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on’[d] the Son of Man.”

hell, the old testament is pretty clear that god himself has a temper and that basically while god is never wrong sometimes he changes his mind remember that whole time he flooded the world and then was like, well, maybe that was extreme, i promise i'll never do that again

Alter Ego posted:just fyi dude the puppetmaster defense is even dumber than your original take I'm not puppet mastering if everyone is worked up over cohen before i ever posted? Is this some kind of reverse puppet master defense? dunno man you crazy as gently caress. Cohen isn't going to be in much trouble, he's best friends with the president and probably gets bjs from melania on the reg while trump watches. He's a rich guy who's been doing illegal poo poo all his life like most rich guys, he probably planned on getting caught some day like most rich guys who do illegal poo poo. Cohen's thoughts are probably more along the lines of "Welp its finally happening, plan b engage" rather than "Oh poo poo I might go to jail wow I never thought this would happen". Meanwhile Trump's cabinet or the other Republicans(or Democrats) are (probably) sneaking some nasty poo poo through while everyone is paying attention to this circus.

Prester Jane posted:Personally I think the best story for getting a genuine Christian to do some interesting thanking is the story of Jepthath. Dude is basically the world leader of Israel at the time and is facing down a battle that he's really nervous about, so he makes a promise to Yahweh that he will make a burnt offering out of the first thing that walks through the front door of his house if he returns from battle victorious. When he returns from Battle Victorious the first thing to walk out the front door of his home is his beloved daughter, and he basically goes "whelp" and brutally murders her, chops are into little bits, puts her on a stone altar, and makes a human sacrifice to Yahweh. It seems like he failed the same test that God gave Abraham.

FizFashizzle posted:NC having the best Republican senators in this whole ordeal was an unpredictable plot twist. We're a purple state and Richard Burr and Thom Tillis are two of the most-in-lockstep Trump Senators and I hate them. Also, I'm wondering if you guys would have an idea of what to do with a particularly interesting piece of information: Thom Tillis is 100% gay. I have a gay friend who knows Thom, and he used to hang out at gay clubs all the time back in the 80s (while he's in office doing stuff to undermine LGBT rights). This has never come up in any election that Thom Tillis has ever been involved in, somehow. Is the fact that my buddy absolutely, positively knows that he's a huge hypocrite, and probably knows a dozen other people who would testify to the same, something that would be weaponizable against him next time he's up in 2020? I do understand that outing someone as a political attack is a moral minefield, but I think a case can be made for a person who is actively harming other gay people. Any opinions?

Gort posted:Jesus is a bit lovely with his "Pay taxes to the fascist invaders who are occupying your country" policy though as i recall that story isn't an instruction that you must follow civil law, more that by following civil law you're not automatically violating his teachings. the question wasn't do people have to comply with civil laws, but if they are allowed to. you don't get a free pass to be exempt from all earthly laws because you're a christian, but that doesn't mean that you must or even are allowed to follow laws that require you to do something that is wrong.

Tillis is going out of his way to get Mueller protected, and Burr isn't running again and hates Trump's guts. Yeah they voted for the tax cut and gutting the ACA, but I didn't say good senators. At the end of the day they're still republicans.
