My post consistency isn’t promised… But the Rabbi will try.

I just can’t see that ‘cuz we’re white’ is all that good a reason for keeping the race pure. Who gives the shit? Yes, whites invented stuff, but it’s not like YOU are responsible for a phonetic alphabet or assembly line construction.

And at one point, ‘white’ was actually defined by having a certain amount of Indian Blood, because the rich elitists felt there was a cachet to being descended of Pocahontas. So, clearly, ‘white’ is whatever the fuck you feel like it is. Nothing noble about that.

And because our ancestors swore allegiance to Jesus Christ

Two things:
- my family name means “worshipper of Thor”, so, no, my ancestors did not swear allegiance to the Nazarene, and
- even if my ancestors did, why the fuck should I care about what stupid oath my ancestors took? Here I thought what counts is what you personally do, and all I have to say about christianity is that it is one of the greatest cons and crimes against humanity ever committed.

“How do evolutionists account for human reproduction?”
Um, what’s to account for? Reproduction is pretty crucial to evolution.

“The human reproductive system is incredibly complex...slight problems/variations in the female body can easily result in the death of the egg/fetus AND the woman.”
Thus natural selection. I don’t see the problem, here.

“Now, add the male to the equation...Evolution requires that males and females co-evolved in perfect harmony...”
OH! You’re as dumb as Comfort. No, silly, no one thinks that males and females of ANY species developed independently.

“each change in males was matched by a corresponding change in females...or extinction occurs.”
Yes. Each change in the species means more changes in the species. Some of the changes may have turned out to be fatal to those individuals. Not really an issue.

“So how can the exact same evolutionary mechanisms (internal and/or external) that cause males to become "more male," simultaneously cause females to become "more female?" (in perfect harmony, mind you)”
You really don’t understand the science you’re trying to mock.

“The only possible (non impossible) explanation is that humans evolved as individuals having BOTH male and female organs...”
Sort of, but this happened WAY before humans existed. Then there was specialization. And all the species after that retained that specialization.

“But this is required of ALL animal species. There is no plausible answer.”
Common ancestry is the answer. We all come from animals that developed sex.

“This is one of the reasons I find Evolution to be absurd.”
Oh, look, the idiot thinks his idiocy is reasonable.

Master Po #fundie

Master Po was a character of great wisdom, humility, and peace.
You’re using god to justify abuse. There’s nothing masterful or Po-like about you.

I believe Master Po would more likely say, “The most compassionate attitude would be that ‘My great love for you causes me to put MYSELF through any amount of suffering to make your life better.’”
As a Confucianist, he would believe that she already knows and supports the hierarchy of the household and doesn’t need it to be beaten into her.

“Christianity is my relationship with Jesus, my savior, not a religion... its almost a offensive to be called a religion.”
Almost? Let me try.
It’s a religion.
It meets the definition of religion, and a lot better than evolutionary theory does.
It has all the marks of a religion.
It has the tax benefits reserved for a religion.
There are like 5000 sects and schisms and traditions within Christainity, do you think none of those are religions? Well, maybe. For all that you’ll say Catholics and Mormons aren’t Christains, you’ll still count them when you try to claim the US is a Christain nation that’s mostly Christain as far as religions go.
At any attempt to control of censor any flavor of Christainity, or Christain theology, or policy, people are quick to scream religious liberty of their religion.
Your services are listed in the religious section of the paper.
If anyone published a list of the active religions in the United States, and they left out Christainity, you’d claim persecution of your religion.

“truly free will had messed everything up for us... without free will Adam and Eve would have been perfect which would have made us perfect.”
If Adam and Woman hadn’t gone and had The Fall, we would not have been MADE.
And I’m not sure how much free will they had. They could not tell right-from-wrong, but were still held accountable for their wrongs. Seems like they’re the victims in that story.

Tangent, but:

She also addressed the so-called 'Kennedy curse' in her essay, saying that she did not want to add 'a new tragedy' to her mother Caroline's life.

That is a burden that weights on me so heavily as well ever since my brother died.

Mid-November, late at night, I nearly fainted on the toilet, in a scene very reminiscent to the immediate lead-up to my brother’s death, and had pitch-black stool suggesting intestinal bleeding. To cut the long story short, the next day, the hospital found that I was indeed anaemic, but that it was nothing that requires immediate treatment, just a gastro- and colonoscopy a while later for clarification unless things get worse.

Yesterday was said gastro- and colonoscopy (under narcosis), and fortunately, everything is well. It’s probably a possible interaction between Ibuprofen and an antidepressant I had just been prescribed.

But that night… while I recovered quickly, it was dreadful, and I too slept in my mother’s thankfully big bed, because we both feared so much that another episode could occur this night while I slept in my bed, unnoticed, and that she would lose me as well…

horror stories that Fraidy Reiss and Jeanne Smoot spread all over the nation about older husbands who beat on their underage wives. These women are scraping the bottom of the barrel for these kinds of stories, when there are likely more true stories about girls of middle-school or high-school age getting married to someone older and living happily ever after.

The former is the usual fate of the little girls who are unfortunate enough to get married off to adult men. The girls are groomed, abused and exploited. The whole narrative of “ child bride lives happily ever after with their adult husband” is a bold-faced lie

All he has to do is attend a Russian beauty pageant, and there will be contestants as young as 13 years old with bodies that would make even the hottest 29-year-old woman green with envy.

I hope this dude is on a watchlist
