No, really don’t think so.
When a textbook says ‘this happened,’ they also tend to explain how we know this to be true.
The bible and many bible apologists just state what happened, or what they feel happened, or completely ignore the meaning of words on the page to rewrite what happened. And the only reason offered is that the bible is infallible.

Ironically, Trump’s style of leadership has more relations with how rule and ruled Mugabe, Mobutu and Biya (see <@Bastethotep>‘s post) than any Western ruler.

Where is Kal-El from, originally?

A long time ago, I lived in Charleston and my roommate and I watched a lot of movies. I couldn’t find a movie reviewer that i fully trusted. But i did find one that i always, ALWAYS disagreed with.
SO i used his column. if he didn’t like a movie, i knew i’d enjoy it.

So sorry that you have to sit through the opinions of others rather than just marinate in your own viewpoints.

“Today, we have enough scientific knowledge to prove just about every verse in the Bible that has to do with scientific phenomena.”
Um, every single time the Bible describes the Earth, it’s a flat Earth.
Under a solid sky.
Somewhere there’s a mountain tall enough to stand on it and see ‘every nation in the world.’
Feel free to show the coordinates of this mountain…

"By my reckoning, the only one that's a little iffy is Job 37:18, but even that one has some good, solid indirect evidence.”
The bible describes the sky as solid. God walks around on top if it. Rainwater falls when God opens windows in the sky to let the Waters Above fall down to the clouds.
Clouds are not water vapor in the Bible, they’re physical containers. Only god’s direct hand supports them to keep them from collapsing under the weight of the rainwater they hold.
Pi is exactly three, in the Bible.

Is Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer - who has welcomed Le Makron & First Stroggette Brigitte to Britain - married to a man, OP? The only one stopping you from coming over here and saying so to the world’s press outside the gates of Downing Street: is you.

But considering how our PM is an expert in the law as he’s a barrister - who was Director of Public Prosecutions prior to becoming leader of the Labour Party & ultimately PM - think very carefully before answering: and bring money. Lots of it. Certainly as every second you don’t - or daren’t, considering Britain’s ultra-brutal & hyper-savage Libel & Slander laws: and of course Starmer can more than defend himself in such a case against the likes of you thus the requirement for you bring that unlimited money to hire a barrister - if you’re not prepared to say that about his wife you never had the right to so much as think of saying the same about Brigitte Makron.

Is Jean-Michel Jarre a woman, you Troglodyte…?!

Yet another war and nation you fuckers are still butthurt about, way to make it apparent you bastards will twist you’re selves into knots trying to justify why you lost and never acknowledge your often self-destructive ideas leading to your defeat

additionally… Then why did Rhodesia had so many non-white people in it long before its’ end? almost as if it was a brutal attempt at colonization of a area of Africa which nazi-like behavior ensured it failed horribly compared to its’ comparatively more successful Southern counterparts but no it can’t be that I’m sure… /s

Even Eric Laithwaite would say ’You’re a daft ha’porth’: and he was obsessed with Gyroscopes.

As he’s the Father of Maglev with his invention - Linear Acceleration - he’s saying ’You’re Welcome’ to those in Shanghai with their wheelless train currently in service: as he’ll also be to those in Japan when their Chuo Shinkansen goes online in 2030.

You’ll become as credible as Eric - despite his eccentricities - when you can prove him wrong with more than just electricity.

“Throughout history, human beings have had the tendency to reject their Creator, and replace Him in their lives with gods of their own making.”
Occam’s Razor would just suggest that all human gods are gods of their own making.

I mean, the alternative is that THE ONE GOD appeared a small tribe of people in the Mid-East. Watched people build statues and temples to gods all over the world, but never appeared to anyone but that small, insular people.

Not even one tribe in North America, one tribe in South America, one tribe in Australia…

The Paris Court of Appeals cleared the journalist on all charges because she had ‘freedom of speech’ - meaning, the freedom to spout absolute bullshit.

Brigitte’s got grown-up kids, BTW.

The same people who blather about "Trump derangement syndrome" are still monomaniacs about a guy who left office eight years ago.

I just remembered a version of Superman from Justice League: Gods and Monsters. He acts like the Superman these assholes would love, being Zod-lite in attitude and in genetics, but was found and raised by illegal immigrants from Mexico instead of the Kents. He references the “heavy hand” he experienced from his adoptive country and how that impacted his morals once his powers emerged.

Conservatives unironically love to see Superman as “mighty whitey” sneering down his nose at pathetic mortal Americans like he’s a colonial “civilizing” a bunch of brown people while his natural superiority means he is just right by default. And if you have a problem with it talk to the fist because why lower himself to reason with primitives? Except they still see America as a white nation even though they are the brown people in this metaphor which is entirely antithetical to Superman’s very concept as a grateful refugee, representing the feelings of his creators whose families were refugees driven from their homes.

AND HE’S STILL NOT JUST AN IMMIGRANT BUT AN ILLEGAL ALIEN IN THE MOST LITERAL SENSE.

Too many films make the villain sympathetic and not actually evil. So I like that Lex Luthor isn't.

Hell, Lex in the movie even ADMITS that he’s driven by petty envy to commit all the atrocities. He even says he’s too smart NOT to notice that. He’s just such a narcisstic monster he doesn’t even care.

Everyone around Trump knows he has dementia.

Of course Root is obsessed with Obama. Thing is while Obama lives rent free in Root's head I doubt Obama even remembers WAR from collage.

Refuge In Audacity? Trump is so obviously a nonhuman monster, too obviously in fact, that it simply cannot be true.

AnActor Explains #dunning-kruger

I just saw the movie last night. They are just making things up. It's an immagrant story because Superman is an immagrant. The way they are acting the film is about him defending undocumented immagrants when it's not. That's not in the movie at all.

I like that we have a film with an over the top unjustifiably evil villain. Too many films make the villain sympathetic and not actually evil. So I like that Lex Luthor isn't.

Basically "if it doesn't happen right away it's not happening at all " prices are going up and companies are buying less. We just won't see things happening right away.

Just saw the movie alongside my sister; it was great. I honestly don’t see what’s “suddenly woke” about Superman being an immigrant, he’s always been that.

Its message of polygamy contradicts traditional family values.

If you’re referring to the scene that I think you’re referring to, THAT WAS SPECIFICALLY INTENDED TO BE EVIL, you dumbass!

Maybe for the president ten years from now:

First Mr. President, it’s time to hire a SPECIAL COUNSEL to investigate the second Trump presidency. When did everyone around him know Trump had dementia? When did they know he had one kidney? Why was none of this disclosed to the American people?
Who signed all those bills and Executive Orders and pardons? And who made all the decisions and gave all the orders for two years of
the failed second Trump presidency?
I’m betting the answer is Musk
Musk called the shots. Musk gave the orders. Musk ran the government.

Trump is an alien? That means not born in US! He is ineligible to be president!!!

AnActor Explains #dunning-kruger

Injustice Superman is not the Superman of other comics, shows, movies and games. He is a literal alien, undocumented immigrant and was refugee. He opposed bullies, racists, Lex Luthor (whom would advocate border security. Oh no! The MAGA are the villains!!!

You know, for a second there I thought by “Hal” you mean “Hal Jordan” and I was like “WTF, when was he retconned into a deranged incel!?” But then I realized you were talking about Tighten from Megamind and it all made sense. Yeah, Tighten is exactly the kind of horror that would happen should any incel be given Superman powers…

@Anon-e-moose #229494

“Kal-El is an immigrant from the now extinct planet of Krypton.” - Watch it, you’ll have Trumpers sending you death threats for daring to call Superman anything but a red-blooded American…

@Bastethotep #229471

Incidentally, I love that the writers decided to make Hal an incel. It’s a perfect display of how deranged they really are and what they would do with any kind of actual power.

Kal-El is an immigrant from the now extinct planet of Krypton. He’s not even human.

When you’re reduced to comparing an orange mutant to ol’ Supes you haven’t really done your research re. a fictional character created by messrs. Siegel & Shuster, OP(s).

Incidentally, entering Earth’s atmosphere at a certain time, he becomes a Communist superhero. Whoops!

Worse still:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman#An_allegory_for_immigrants

Junot Díaz argues that the character particularly resonates with the experiences of undocumented immigrants in the United States. Throughout the depictions of Superman's archenemy Lex Luthor in comics, film, and television, Luthor has frequently exploited xenophobia against Superman

So who is Superman: and who is Lex Luthor…?!

Nah, Sid was an okay guy, just not a great criminal. Trump’s an awful human being from start to finish, along with being incompetent.
