    Religions pet peeve/annoyances you have?

    "The word Yudhishthira means "the one who is steady in the war", from the words, yuddha (युद्ध) meaning 'war', and sthira (स्थिर) meaning 'steady.'" That's just a great name honestly. I love the meanings of names.

    Germany locks down unvaccinated people, as leaders plan to make shots compulsory

    Article: Germany locks down unvaccinated people, as leaders plan to make shots compulsory - CNN Honestly this all seems (and they also mention the fining planned for Greece) rather like an overreaction to me. Do y'all think this will come to the US? Either mandatory vaccinations nationwide or a...

    Moral laws

    In my opinion: they ignore their conscience and enter into slavery to the world/flesh/demons. As for justice being served, "God will bring every work into judgment, with everything that has been overlooked, whether it be good, or whether it be evil."

    Religions pet peeve/annoyances you have?

    In no particular order: 1) People asking me "why did God do this?" or "what is His reason for that?" as if I am God when they can just ask Him for themselves. I think this practice comes from the gossiping termagant nature people have in general, leading them to ask someone about a person...

    Christian, muslim if you believe in reincarnation?

    In my opinion: a heretical Christian, yes. A right-believing one, no. But that's my take on it.

    This will shake some people to their core...

    I've heard this reading before, seems pretty common. I do not know enough about the Islamic history of interpretation or Islamic history at all to make a judgment as to whether or not it is truly how it should be read though, for I know from the experience of my own religion that you shouldn't...

    Tennessee sees new step in wave of anti-Trans bills

    Not sure how I can more specifically define maleness than that, active generation or the proactive principle in reproduction. Suffice to say, it has almost (due to rare defects making some exceptions) entire overlap with persons who produce sperm and not eggs in any bifurcated animal species...

    Work For CIA Or DHS? You Can Sexually Assault Kids

    Perhaps if I get married and begin on my project to have 20 kids I'll get the sense, not sure. Maybe it's triggered by generating a person. Still seems rather odd.

    Work For CIA Or DHS? You Can Sexually Assault Kids

    What makes you like that? Seems rather inhumane to me at a first glance.

    The God of Jesus

    That's because a lot of information is referenced and assumed (such as knowledge of the OT) as background knowledge, and the Gospels themselves were made in communities who assumed a lot of things about their readers (firstly, that they were themselves).

    Question to people who follow a religion from the past.

    It depends on the thing being discussed. We do not have to dress the same way, use the same language, etc. But the moral commands are fundamentally the same, the contents of the Faith are the same, and so on. They can not be changed and shouldn't be. A "righteous life" is going to be the same in...

    The God of Jesus

    What do you mean "image"? If you mean like a mental picture, we should imagine nothing at all, for God is not a thing. If you mean idea, we should have the idea of an eternal Father who is a spirit which has never been seen, who provides for all, is just, loves the world and does not desire to...

    Do you think tarot cards work?

    Indeed, I agree with you. And no, using it as an aid to thinking, card games, and so on, is not condemned. For those reasons I have always wanted my own tarot deck, mainly thinking and spiritual memorization. The 22 arcana are great for symbolizing spiritual truths and such.

    I don't think we should hide the woman.

    It is bizarre because I usually have no idea what people mean by the word "rights." I often mentally replace it with "privilege in court" or "duties owed" to try and make sense of things. But with further explanation I get your idea, although it hinges on "harm." If people recognize different...

    Will SCOTUS overturn Roe v Wade?

    I haven't seen those arguments yet, but on the track record the SCOTUS has in keeping it I doubt it. But I selected "I don't know," for anything is possible in politics.

    I don't think we should hide the woman.

    Are you using "right" as in "ability" or that however people choose to dress should be legally protected?

    Do you think tarot cards work?

    Concerning men following their passions and such like the other animals, yes. They would have some predictive power, as with astrology and other things.

    I don't think we should hide the woman.

    What do you mean by "their business"? In that it is something they chose to do or is in their power to do? (I mean those two things to mean the same thing, just two different ways of saying it.)

    What idea in it makes you not think of evolution as true? And poll

    I am aware of sources that support it but there is still the sifting through theological arguments to see who holds up better to Patristic ideas, Scriptural motifs, etc. For example it is perfectly certain that all human death comes through the Fall of Adam and Eve, but for some reason that...
