I agree! (Also about Christianity, fuck anyone whose dogmatism causes them to disrespect any marginalized group.)

But I don’t think anyone should tolerate intolerance. If it’s part of your culture to subjugate women and hate LGBTQ people or other religions, you will have to change that part of your culture or fuck all the way off.

Both the US and Europe would be much nearer to that level if any migration was allowed unchecked. It is becoming a problem in Europe and it is growing. It’s just a sad reality that democracy can’t consist of people who don’t believe in democracy.

Problems start when the people coming in don’t share those sentiments and instead want their authoritarian culture to replace and dominate.

Edit: also, in the West democracy and equality have become part of our culture and tradition, for the most part, and those values just are not shared by lots of migrants. And you can’t tolerate those values being replaced. It’s the paradox of tolerance.

Lemmy keeps amazing me with the answers that come up. Many thanks, that is great!

I wish we were!

I guess that the commentor meant that those kinds of thoughts don’t get you jobs, and doesn’t know how easy it is to get a job with a degree in either of those fields. Same for the upvoters.

Stay married for the health insurance, everybody start seeing other people. Your wife’s depression is (probably) not your responsibility. Tell your daughter (and each other) love is not as simple as made out in movies, but can be much more. Everyone’s happiness is more important than following traditional ways. Always stay respectful towards everyone involved.

This is advice from a childless slut. You would probably be foolish to follow it.

Please tell me you do see the problem with speaking when you don’t know that the topic even is

(This whole thread is showing me once again online discussions are pointless)

We’re talking about the development of Christianity, not politics, right?

How can your comment get so downvoted? I just don’t get it

Ever heard of the age of enlightenment? Holy hell. Also, you can make jokes about Christianity publicly without having to fear for your life. Lots of preachers have problems with their churches and are progressives. What is wrong with you people.

I find it ridiculous how downvoted you got. Of all the major religions Christianity is the one that went through the greatest processes of self-reflection and criticism and while I find most of its institutions still very flawed, it offers a lot of deep and compassionate thought and traditions. Also it actually has excellent philosophers and thinkers that integrate a scientific world view in theirs.

Lemmy is very ridiculous in this regard. People have intense opinions on things they have no deep understanding of. It’s like how MAGA people react to things like gun control or vaccines. They preach tolerance of some things and not others.

The thought of Putin finding Jesus could have led to a funny and weird conversation, and yet you were just met with hate. It’s so sad.

This game is my litmus test for new relationships. When I say I love a cripple dating simulator and they are into that, I know to be careful

(It has waaay too much dialogue/monologue that doesn’t move the plot or bring any new information to the table, imho. With writing being the one part where an indie game can excel, I find that a bit disappointing. Man, I’m happy I can share this opinion here, where people may actually know the game)

“I like to f*ck” by Tila Tequila.

Essentially the same lyrics, even.

Thank you guys a lot for your thoughts! I will create a new account and pay for a Game Pass subscription, I think I should get it discounted for the first month. If the guys at the home really like it, I will try to find a permanent solution with their admin people.

Well, maybe, but Lem did as mathematicians do: write lengthy, intricate things and then not do a lot. Whereas my little stanza of physics is just a prelude to things that happen later in the lab, and which require a first aid kit at hand.

No no, Socrates is exactly who we need right now! …Damn, why did we poison him??

Yeah I would like to see how she reacts when I sum over her delicate wavefunction and square her nasty little probability amplitude… But I bet she would moan and beg for me to integrate over her infinite intervals, that little slut

This case calls for a hapless student reporter with an old car, bangs and a love for indie music, I believe

But irrational numbers aren’t the same as imaginary numbers. Also, there are irrational imaginary numbers. And quantum physics loves using imaginary numbers. So that sentence in the image is nonsense, right?
