Adam Carolla tells a story about sharing a popcorn with Howie Mandel, who has OCD about cleanliness, and at some point he realizes that this is weird and asks him, “why isn’t this triggering your OCD?”
And Howie replies, “you don’t get it, I’m crazy. There’s no logic to it.”
This is Asia Bibi, a Pakistani Christian woman who spent 8 years on death row after being accused of “blasphemy” for drinking water from a Muslim’s cup.
Asia was working in the fields with her Muslim coworkers. She got thirsty and went to fetch water from the well, where she took a drink with an old metal cup she had found. This is all it took.
Christians are considered dirty and impure in Islam, and she was accused of attempting to contaminate the Muslims’ water just by drinking from their cup. She was sentenced to death by hanging.
The governor of her province voiced opposition to the verdict and was assassinated by his own bodyguard.
When she was finally acquitted in 2018 due to international pressure, tens of thousands of Muslims rioted, demanding her immediate execution.
A local poll found that 10 MILLION Pakistanis would personally kill her if given the chance. Just for drinking water from a cup.
Her lawyer had to flee the country. And after months in hiding, she was finally able to escape Pakistan and received asylum in Canada.
This is Sharia-ruled Pakistan, where non-Muslims live under the constant threat of death. The more I learn about this country, the more it just feels like ISIS with a formal government.
She posted constantly about how her 3rd world Muslim boyfriend wasn't at all like the stereotypes. Turns out he was a scammer who drained her for all she was worth, then brutally murdered her after an argument. He then fled back to the nation he said he needed asylum from
Yes, people frequently drive from Yorkshire to Devon to murder elderly conservative politicians for entirely non-political reasons, such as disliking the similes in their novels. We are at late-stage Soviet levels of official lying.
@sappholives83 Framing this stupidity as misogyny is an ideologically motivated mistake, and you know it.
Because the exact same logic could be applied to a man's penis reduced to a blow-up fuck stick. And calling that misandry would be patently retarded.
A Muslim woman explains what Muslims get in heaven:
“Allah will reward men with 72 virgins. But women will be forever young and beautiful.
We’ll live in gold palaces. Allah will give us silk clothes, diamonds, and slaves to serve us for eternity.”
I’ve never seen a more materialistic and carnal religion.
The very term "peer review" did not exist til the 1970s and the entire institution was basically invented as a way to formalize getting grant money from the US government in the late 20th century
19th century golden age scientists published then other scientists READ them
Reminder:
The proposed California wealth tax is an effort by a corrupt healthcare union to blackmail Gavin Newsom into giving them a bunch of free stuff.
And they don't really care if it passes.
They just want free stuff.
A statement that can only be made by the historically ignorant.
Before Christians took over the Roman Empire, it was normal for Roman parents to dispose of unwanted babies (of which were mostly daughters) by simply dumping them on trash heaps. This was a practice known as 'exposure'. If babies didn't outright die, they'd be picked up by brothel owners or slavers to be turned into products for profit.
Many Christians adopted these unwanted children as their own. Because many of these children were girls, and because the conditions they grew up in weren't very fortunate, early Christianity developed a reputation for being a religion for women and poor people.
It wouldn't be until Christian Emperors like Constantine that the practice of exposure was finally equated to murder.
So yes, Christians did invent most of what we know as "Basic Human Morality" as we know it today. You stand on the shoulders of giants but are too arrogant to look down and see where your feet are planted.

If you want to stop this expel the people, don’t try to ban the culture
@robkhenderson There are no “genes predisposing them to same-sex attraction”
This entire premise is making “may” do a lot of heavy lifting without any falsifiability
Four churches have burned down in New York since Zohran Mamdani took office. Yesterday alone, two churches were set on fire.
Imagine if it were mosques. He would be crying Islamophobia and declaring a state of emergency.
But since it’s churches, he hasn’t said a single word.
