    atheism is a (religious position)

    Religions require a system of ritual and belief. Emphasis on system. Just believing in a God or not believing in any god doesnt make a person religious.

    The Random, Meaningless Announcements Thread 3!

    Today, I was demonstrating Tai Chi to my colleague at work during lunch by a lake, and there was a family of geese by the waters edge. Usually the mother starts making a noise when we walk past and they all swim away. But today, while I was Tai Chiing, they started walking closer and looking my...

    South Carolina OKs ban on gender affirming care.

    Of course this is tied to combatting trans ideology. Its just the same as religious ideology having practical consequences for minors. What I am referring to is minors making decisions that permanently alter their lives. The trans stuff potentially causes harm medically. The religious stuff...

    South Carolina OKs ban on gender affirming care.

    Well do you have an alternative solution to their issues? If I think it is immoral for minors to be indoctrinated into religion because of the cognitive harm it causes, should we then say government should ban parents from teaching their religion to their kids before they reach 25?

    South Carolina OKs ban on gender affirming care.

    I never understood peoples opposition to trans issues. I honestly don't care about trans issues as much as I dont care about gay issues as much as I dont care about straight issues. They are people to me and they can do what they wish and I care about their issues if they are my friends and...

    How is his view twisted though?

    how do you feel when threatened with Hell?

    I feel as if I am talking to inbred swamp people when this happens.

    Israel-Gaza : "Netanyahu vows no Palestinian state ..."

    As a South African I would be against it because why must our government send security to another country when we have been asking for security from gangs, syndicates and criminals for decades? We would all be furious. At the moment, the only reason that I am ok with South Africa assisting...

    Greetings. I am Cultsmasher.

    That wiki quote makes a very relevant point. In my opinion the coloquial term cult refers to groups who go quite against society norms. Which makes one wonder if society itself could be classified as a cult colloquially.

    Only cults expect people to conform to the "correct spelling". XD

    Let’s Return to the Fundamental Truth

    Ok. So then a person who gets hit with a reality check isn't in the right frame of mind. They are susceptible to manipulation because they are in a vulnerable state because they are looking for a way out. A hope. The most reliable people then are the people who have not made decisions based on...

    Skyrim

    I spent hours on Skyrim. The sad thing is that for me it is one of those games that takes so much time but makes me feel depressed because I feel like I have wasted my life away. I dunno why this is.

    Let’s Return to the Fundamental Truth

    So basically in most cases life has to suck in order for someone to have the fear of God?

    Let’s Return to the Fundamental Truth

    Is a painful reality check a traumatic life experience?

    Sorry. I mistyped. I meant that "we see that how to draw realistically isn't obvious"

    I have the Egyptian Book of the Dead. It is so much like a comicbook to me because . The art assists the spells and ritual so well.

    Mediaevals Can't Do Perspecti--

    Reminds me of people who don't like retro videogames because they either aren't 3d or aren't realistic 3d. To me, Pixel art in gaming has its own charm. And, if realism is the goal, why not then just take a photo? If they want to brag about skill, I can bet that artists who aim for hyper realism...
