Ah, so we both have to give our life for each other.
Enjoy your death cult.
I want no part of it.
If I am to be sacrificed for my neighbor, on what grounds can you blame him for speeding along the proceedings and sacrificing me himself?
Was he tasty?
I think people have generally been pretty positive when I say I only eat meat
It helps that I've lost a ton of weight and added muscle, so those who know me can see immediately that I'm healthier
"Modern intellectuals are comparable to a psychopath who murders for kicks. They seek the thrill of the new; and the new, to them, is the negative. The new is obliteraion, obliteration of the essential in every field; they have no interest in anything to take its place. Thus the uniqueness of the century behind us: philosophy gleefully rid of system-building, education based on the theory that cognition is harmful, science boastful of its inability to understand, art which expelled beauty, literature which flaunted antiheroes, language “liberated” from syntax, verse “free” of meter. nonrepresentational painting, atonal music, unconscious psychology, deconstruction in literary criticism, indeterminancy as the new depth in physics, incompleteness as the revelation in mathematics–a void everywhere that was acclaimed by the avante-garde with the metaphysical chuckle. It was the sound of triumph, the triumph of the new anti-ideal: of the unknowable, the unreachable, the unendurable."

I view Jesus as a tragic figure - a man espousing a twisted (in my view, evil) moral code in response to a twisted situation (namely, overbearing religious authority conflicting with overbearing legal authority)
The cheapest meat/eggs you can buy are 10x healthier than the most expensive bread/cereal/chips/soda
I think you can eat carnivore for under $10 per day on 70/30 ground beef, eggs, cream, plus some cheap lean meats like chicken or mussels
drink plenty of water
It's advisable to start with easy-digested food when you come out (eg bone broth)
"The internet is the only platform we have left [other than centralized broadcast media]"
Well, there's also point-to-point radio
Glenn is a civil libertarian as well as a welfare statist (if not outright communist)
These positions are contradictory, hence his confusion as one group of fellow travelers suddenly abandons him
It's understandable, though, because the welfare statists (and communists) in the US have long loudly insisted that they are the true liberals
The Feds are in much more trouble than most subsidiary jurisdictions
According to usdebtclock.org the Federal debt per citizen is over $100k
The State debt per citizen is under $4k
The local debt per citizen is about $7300
You're probably right that some will go bust, but I would guess not many
And how did you determine which "Evangelical Christians" were possessed of the truth?
The ultimate ground of my beliefs is experience - I set my leg on the ground and it proves to be solid. I then interpret these experiences according to reason.
Is there such a rock on which your church is built? I know they like to say there is, but is there really? Or is it just faith (meaning: a decision to believe in the absence of evidence or reason) ?
How did they know these books were legitimate scripture?
(and how do you know that)
