No, it doesn't, because you could get lynched by angry people over much more minor shit than that

2017-04-04 17:41:31 UTC  

but frankly the christian mobs are usually more interesting in forcibly baptizing heathens

2017-04-04 17:41:35 UTC  

and killing jews and muslims

2017-04-04 17:41:38 UTC  

I just don't understand why you cannot acknowledge the simple logic

2017-04-04 17:41:43 UTC  

it's not like it affects your position

2017-04-04 17:41:44 UTC  

or forcibly baptizing them and then killing them

2017-04-04 17:41:55 UTC  

so at least their souls would be saved

2017-04-04 17:42:05 UTC  

be that as it may, how would they respond to someone casting aspertions on the bible in public

2017-04-04 17:42:11 UTC  

would they let it go

2017-04-04 17:42:15 UTC  

would they respond with mild censure

2017-04-04 17:42:19 UTC  

or would they be madder

2017-04-04 17:42:27 UTC  

it's really simple I think?

2017-04-04 17:42:30 UTC  

What is there to textually criticize about hte historiocity of the gospels?

2017-04-04 17:42:39 UTC  

okay, you're just not going to answer are you

2017-04-04 17:42:43 UTC  

suit yourself

2017-04-04 17:42:44 UTC  

Other than matthew, mark, luke, and john didn't write them?

2017-04-04 17:42:48 UTC  

and they didn't know jesus?

2017-04-04 17:42:58 UTC  

"It's all bullshit"

2017-04-04 17:43:04 UTC  

the critique doesn't have to be true or false.

2017-04-04 17:45:25 UTC  

Will such a thing ever catch on? I think it's a pretty big jump from even wearing such stuff

2017-04-04 17:45:30 UTC  

to actually implanting it in your body

2017-04-04 17:45:34 UTC  

I think it won't take

2017-04-04 17:45:45 UTC  

not as things currently stand at least

2017-04-04 17:46:05 UTC  

would any of you accede to such a device if let's say you were sure there was nothing shifty going on?

2017-04-04 17:52:28 UTC  

A few months ago I saw a common core question (language arts) asking students to write a paragraph supporting a new microchip implant. I think it may be more palatable in the future as it's already being normalized now.

2017-04-04 17:52:38 UTC  

Looking for the article now.

2017-04-04 17:53:15 UTC  

Really? Fascinating

2017-04-04 17:54:07 UTC  

I believe it was a part of the US Common Core curriculum. I could be mistaken though.

2017-04-04 17:54:40 UTC  

I can't find anything googling offhand, where did you encounter it?

2017-04-04 17:54:55 UTC  

I'll take your word for it but I'm curious

2017-04-04 17:55:53 UTC  

Ill find it - I'm equally curious where I saw it and the context.

Meme magic

@devolved I'm reading AnonCon

2017-04-04 18:07:01 UTC  

I'll paste a section as an example of where his worldview just falls apart, totally inconsistent

2017-04-04 18:07:08 UTC  

One worrying aspect is leftist r-strategists tend to have high creativity, perhaps as an outgrowth of an evolved drive to create and exploit alternative resource streams as a way of avoiding direct conflict. As a result leftists tend to operate in these fields, and exhibit some measure of competence.

2017-04-04 18:07:46 UTC  

So r-"strategists" tend to have higher creativity? Woudn't you expect higher creativity from K-selected populations that have to make do with limited resources or poor conditions?

2017-04-04 18:08:18 UTC  

this kind of incoherence pops up every time I see r/K stuff applied directly to liberal vs. conservative

2017-04-04 18:10:43 UTC  

Indeed

2017-04-04 18:10:57 UTC  

But would you say it works, loosely
