Shila

You'll be back. All throughout history they've worked to silence folks.

Maybe there's a reason for muthafukas.

Let's say that, you the parent, decide to not teach your child about color. Let's say that, for the sake of the scenario, no outside force tries to intervene or attempts to mention color around this child. Putting aside all the morals and whatnot around this, how would this child turn out?

If I were to take this child at the age of eight, and said child had never even heard of color, and then asked him to describe the sky, how would he answer? Would he try to describe the clouds and their shapes? Would he try to describe it as "bright" or "light"?

Out of the same hole.

The question

Under such a scenario, should we obey God? (And how much/to what extent should we obey him?) And in whichever case the answer is, would that answer be because of ethical reasons, pragmatic reasons, and/or whichever else other reasons you can think of? Additionally can you imagine variables that would change your answer to this exercise? (Such as for example the specifics of what God's message is)

It's nice to watch the girls, but I think that they should be made to where delicate lingerie and strap on dicks...What say you sadolite?

You're hogging the limelight.

I can't see my six pack.

I think that Shila has a beautiful mind.

Didn't Stormy say, Trump Is Not a Monopole Phenomena?

Hinduism is often considered the oldest existing religion still practiced today. While this may be true, it’s important to note that Hinduism does not have any particular founder or a single text, but instead combines several ancient traditions and beliefs.

The oldest scripture of Hinduism is the Rig Veda, which is believed to be about 3,500 years old. However, archaeologists have found bull and cow motifs, which are sacred animals in Hinduism, dating back to around 7,000 BCE during a time when an ancient civilization inhabited the area near the Indus River.

Today, Hinduism is practiced by millions of people around the world, but primarily in India and the surrounding countries.

Thats not a negation of my argument, but anyway. This society even today doesnt actually care about forcing or hurting children. People hurt children all the time, punish them, yell at them, spank them, force them to do things they dont want, neglect them, refuse to talk to them, try to control every part of their life, all scientifically proved to harm child's mental health, give them junk food which ruins their teeth and health, circumcise them, allow bullying in schools, bully trans children online, most even greatly endanger child's lives by speeding and being careless in traffic, and allow smoking. They just pretend they care because they prefer to live in some fantasy delusion than to face the truth, and they pretend to care so that they would have some delusional excuse to do witch hunts and have more delusional excuse to hurt others. For them, it’s not about protecting children because they dont care about own children. For them, it’s all about finding excuses to hurt people they dont like, and imposing control over others. It was always that, and nothing else. You can see it in politics, in constant wars, in media, and in economy. So anyone who cares about consent and preventing harm cannot actually be in agreement with most of society.

Yes, if they were women performers.

When men and women complement each other, they make perfect couples.

"How you doin?"

"In 1880, the ages of consent were set at 10 or 12 in most states, with the exception of Delaware where it was 7."

It says right in the wiki site you quoted from.

So the painters are fellow Nazis.

This proves only China can be trusted.

Yes, but with what?

China has the highest percentage of atheists in the world, with an estimated 67% of the population not believing in religion. Only 9% of Chinese people identify as religious.

You cant see gravity. You can only observe effects it has on things. Gravity is like magic which cannot be explained yet. We just know its there somewhere, causing things to happen. However, I have yet to see an explanation of what gravity actually is. We know that gravity is everywhere around us, but the problem rises in the fact that no one can explain why one body is capable of sending some "invisible hand" which pulls other bodies towards it. Its like there is some world out there which we cannot yet detect. It literally works like magic.

Nope, the generational  transfer of Christian data has stood the test of a few thousand years.

Prior to the book, there were millions of years of other versions of stood time testing.

Being stupidly clever is a prime example.

And we didn't stop being cleverly stupid once the book had been compiled...Far from it.

USA did have age of consent at 10 for almost hundred years in some states, but it was different back then. Child abuse didnt reduce later with increasing age of consent. It even increased. Giving children right to consent protects children from abuse. If parents have no right to deny their children of choice, then they are less likely to deny children of choice. This protects children from over controlling parents. Over controlling parents are scientifically proved to harm child's decision making development and child's knowledge and confidence and ability to reject unwanted advances. Sadly, today, there are bunch of control freak parents who think children are their property, and their children either rush into relationships to escape parent's control or they become incapable of even having decent relationships.

There is a really good do on the GFC of 2008 titled “Inside Job.” It makes one think that things could not have gone worse if it were our goal to cause a financial crisis. The Great Depression led to the Glass Steagall Act which prohibited the commingling of commercial banking with investment banking. It seemed to work. Then the Gramm Leach Bliley Act of 1999 (I think) largely undid that policy. I believe this was a pivotal cause of the GFC. The Dodd Frank Act was then enacted to make banks more conservative in their reserves, but I still think it is not as effective a preventative measure as was Glass Steagall.

This was the case the last hundred times you asked, and it won't change if you ask another hundred times.

The best remedy of all is to develop scarce and desirable skills.

When people spray paint them on the Nazi's car, that's when.

And when they are used to call a senior government official a Nazi, then too.

I really doubt Musk is confused about what they mean to convey by their use of the symbol.

- You will become one of the poorest nations on Earth the moment any of those systems collapse, such as the USD, as all else will shortly follow. Better not put too much faith in the US, put your wealth elsewhere, towards the East. This is financial advice.

If I do more youtube videos they will likely be to try and build my credibily as an expert in cyber security and be boring to those who have no interest in that. 

I hope you gained something from this. I hope new users are encouraged to use the site correctly as outlined in my first piece of advice and if the site is useless at sharpening your thinking than hopefully you can utilize the tool I have taught you.

Canadians see Trump as the spoiler.

Americans see Trump as a soiler.

Trouble is, with no way of verifying content, the very nature of it's development and construction, makes the Bible an unreliable source of information.

 Making your statement somewhat contradictory.

Can children consent to children sexually?

Law doesnt determine the truth. Present reasons for why children shouldnt have a choice.

When did swastikas become an anti-Nazi symbol?

Cool, now go find a competent Democrat to replace Trump. See you in 12 years.

It’s great that USA only has two parties. One party are retarded communist control freaks who want to bring back gulags. The other party are delusional rich control freaks and nazis who want to purge groups to gain popularity. It’s like having only two choices and no matter what choice you choose, you get punched in the face.

Kids younger than 12 cannot consent to any type of sexual activity.

This is a debate about consent, not specifically consent to sexual activity, but we can debate that too

Did you know that J. Robert Oppenheimer was not a conventionally religious person and did not believe in God, though he was interested in Eastern philosophy and mysticism, particularly the Bhagavad Gita.

Why? Is granting children the right to choose really something you want?

Yes. If children cant consent, then they either are property with other people making decisions for them, which is slavery, either other people cant make decisions for them, and then no decisions can even be logically made and every option is wrong, which cannot work.

Seriously, guys... stop insulting Mall. These insults are really only going to turn into an insult fight which no one will win. I dont understand why I am forced to be a hypocrite here just to calm things down.

His OP is a stupid attempt to insult, he created a stupid insult thread, and he's an idiot.

Are you asking us to lie, why would we compromise our integrity by pretending he's not an idiot?  

If the snowflake doesn't like insults he shouldn't start insult threads. 

He should just stick with his regular stupid posts, and we will stick with our regular ignoring his nonsense.

About eight-in-ten U.S. murders in 2023 – 17,927 out of 22,830, or 79% – involved a firearm. That was among the highest percentages since 1968, the earliest year for which the CDC has online records. More than half of all suicides in 2023 – 27,300 out of 49,316, or 55% – also involved a gun.

… I want to test your critical thinking skills, Shila. For the point you want to make, the data you cite contains an underlying assumption about a policy change you propose. What is it, and how would someone who is pro-gun argue the assumption is flawed?

I suppose so.

In so much as the notion of intelligence is a construct thereof.

Perhaps AI will give it another name.

Trump thinks it's totally unacceptable that we buy a lot more from other countries than they do from us. The only thing that proves tho, is that other countries sell stuff so cheap. And, mainly, it shows that the usa has a strong dollar, which indicates its more cost effective to have a negative trade deficit with other countries. Which means our economy is strong. 

Trumps underlying premises r screwed up

None of this will still be true after Trump collapses our economy AGAIN.

Where will one find the definitive book of moral righteousness?

And for sure BK makes sense...But not always sensibly.

But actually, where is the definitive book of all that is sensible?

If the victim complains and files sexual assault charges. The accused will have to prove it was consensual sex.

At least 1 in 20 of women who report being raped lie about being raped. The number is probably even bigger, but these are just cases where it was clearly proved that woman lied about being raped just to put man in prison.

I heard that Melania wants Canada to be a Slovenian state.

It's too bad that Canada does not have any nuclear weapons .  They must feel like the Ukraine.

Proves Trump does not know that adding Canada to the US will be bad for Republicans.

Putin forgot to tell him that part of the plan

That addresses none of what I said.

She is a sucker for BBQ Fritos twists which you can't get in Canada.

Hi Shila.

Well, my knowledge on the subject is limited.

I put together thoughts, derived from things that I read, and developments that arise as a result.

With hindsight, human experience tells us that we will always exceed expectation....So who knows what will be achieved in the future.

If Canada did become the 51st state, the Republicans would never win another election, Canadians are overwhelmingly liberal. 

Canada has about the same population and leanings as California, so yes, Republicans would, as a party, end. Politics will then be between moderate Californians and Radical Californians. Adding 54 left-leaning Canadian members to the Congress is enough to practically rewrite the constitution. Adding 54 electoral votes for the left means they can win every election with the support of 15 blue states. No swing states needed.

I see that Satanism didn't help either. Jesus and Satan were useless. Lol. 

To be honest, both Jesus and Satan helped more than pills did. But Satan helped in other ways. He opened my mind to new knowledge

If the victim does not complain, then it is not considered rape.

What if the victim complains, but actually wants it? Person can complain even if person wants it. Also, what about women who complain after sex?

"In a multi-site study of 8 US communities involved in the “Making a Difference” (MAD) Project conducted by EVAWI, data were collected by law enforcement agencies for all sexual assault reports received in an 18-24 month period. Of the 2,059 cases that were included in the study, 140 (7%) were classified as false."

Yes, the USA will be his next flop.
