Peddling Fear

There is a reason I no longer engage with you. I find you irritating and not funny in the least. When I comment on someone or something I take the time to give my reasons which oftentimes result in long posts. You just make an insulting post and move on because you know you can' defend it.

Now, I happen to know you follow me around like a puppy dog and know my position on Christianity. Yet, you try to use Christianity to tie me into the "far' right knowing my background. I debated Christians not just for years, but for decades and was far more combative with them than I am now. There is a poster here @Revelation who is a staunch Christian but his arguments almost always show why he is saying what he is saying. While I disagree with him on every and all matters regarding Christianity, that's cool. He isn't a jerk.

Your beliefs about the left are equally applicable to the right. All you ever found was a new group to identify with, not some truth. Everything you post here ties you into the far right. You apparently substituted one belief system for another.

I dunno. The Christians' posts are much more lucid than his.

Humans ARE like computers, Should you disagree with this, let me know your detailed reply as to why 99% of people born to Muslim parents become Muslims and why most people who grow up in the hood to one parent families who don't give a crap about anything but booze and drugs and teach their kids that whitey is the problem invariably grow up to be thugs and criminals. Before you respond, I am not going to accept a response that there are ten people in Iran who are Christain or that one person you know escaped the hood and became a doctor.

No, computers appear to have some characteristics that humans do, because humans made computers. Human beings do not act like computers. You can’t make a program that rejects anything subjectively, because programs are not subjective. They have objective criteria that dictates how they function.

Religions vary all over the place and are different based on the countries and cultures that adopt them. And plenty of individuals either change or discard the religions they were ostensibly “indoctrinated” into because individual families have varying degrees of seriousness about their religion. Just because you were indoctrinated and have trouble thinking independently doesn’t mean that you can project your individual issue onto everyone else as if it is a universal truth.

When I left the faith, so to speak, it was difficult because my family were believers and so were all my friends and they still are. I have to tread lightly on the topic because they don't like the fact that I am a non-believer and many of them think it's personally or me denigrating their beliefs, so I do not debate the topic with them because of that. That they do that is also a means of control, like a tribe ganging up on someone who doesn't believe and may leave the fold. If that happens then their tribe is in danger because they know that it could become infectious if they don't stamp out dissent and nonbelief. Too many leave and your group is in danger of eventually being eliminated, as have so many of the hundreds if not thousand so religions in the past. Since you are a learned man in religion you are well awae of how the Catholic church once ruled the world and did so ruthlessly striking fear into anyone who would dare question them with ith torture and death. Islam still does it.

The modern left has adopted every single control and propaganda tactic of the Christians and Muslims.

racism and white nationalism. Throw in Islamophobe for good measure. That would just about cover all the responses you have. Your one liners are typical of so many from the resident Libs of DP and display uncommon inanity seldom found among even the least educated liberal.

More personal insults against everyone who doesn’t fall for your BS posts, as usual. No, you didn’t uncover a big librul plot meant to fool us all. But keep telling yourself that, if it makes you feel enlightened.

More projection.
 
......but it doesn't take long to realize that life has nothing to do with stuff. We're all sitting on that death bed
we're all going to die every single one of us, and nobody looks back and says I wish I collected more stuff

We're having a serious problem in Canada.

For the first time, two major train companies have gone on strike at the same time!

It's harvest season. The produce has to be moved.
I especially feel for the farmers, who have been struggling already.................and now, this!

You'll be affected too.





Canadian freight railroads shut down, dealing a potential blow to North America’s economy ​


Nearly a third of the freight handled by the two railroads — Canadian National (CN) and Canadian Pacific Kansas City Southern (CPKC) — crosses the US-Canadian border, and the shutdown could disrupt operations in a number of US industries, including agriculture, autos, home building and energy, depending upon how long the shutdown lasts.



This is the first time that both major Canadian railroads have shut down at the same time due to a labor dispute.

thanks Tosca. could be a continuation of the War on Food, or maybe the War on Everything.

keep us updated on this, the DNC seems to be in party mode so don't expect anything there.

for those who wanna know how many months left, Janie Duvall goes a little deeper than Crystal on this. https://www.youtube.com/@JanieDuVall/videos

blessings people; Bible church open this weekend if we make it that far.

The government needs to step in now. They never should have let it happen in the first place. This is just Trudeau putting union votes ahead of what's right.
