Elon Musk: ”I think there are great things in every culture. We don’t want the German culture to disappear. We don’t want French culture to disappear. We don’t want Korean culture to disappear, or Japan, or America, or anywhere.
I think we should be very cautious about having some sort of global mixing pot, because every place will be the same, and there won’t be any unique cultures in the world. Which I think would make the world worse.
So I think we need to preserve these country cultures, and that’s the future that I think is better. I think that most people would agree is better. We shouldn’t have cultures disappear.
And currently, based on the current birth rates and the sort of so-called multiculturalism and globalism, what we’re actually seeing is the dilution of individual cultures and the destruction and death of individual cultures, which I think is terrible for the future.”
acho que o ser humano foi feito msm pra ir pra praia, ficar pelado, comer frutinhas, transar, fumar maconha e ficar de dengo agarradinho o resto é tudo bobagem que inventamos
Jordan Peterson made a profound point on Chris Williamson’s podcast.
When God dies, a lot of unexpected things die with Him, including science.
Science isn’t some purely neutral, secular tool. It rests on deeply religious assumptions: that truth exists, that it’s knowable, that pursuing it is good, and that the universe makes sense.
These aren’t scientific claims, they’re metaphysical, rooted in a religious worldview. The universities themselves grew out of monasteries.
Without that deeper foundation, science eventually stops being about truth and becomes just another tool for power, ideology, or convenience. You lose the reason to be honest when the data gets inconvenient.
Do you think science can survive long-term without any belief in objective truth or a higher moral order?
In the Summertime is the debut single by Mungo Jerry, released in May 1970.
The band recorded the track very quickly in the studio, without traditional drums: the iconic rhythm of "chh chh chh" comes from the washboard played by Paul King.
The band's name came from a poem by T. S. Eliot ("Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer"). Released as a single, it became a global phenomenon: #1 on the UK Singles Chart for seven weeks in a row, #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, #1 in several countries and sold millions of copies.
Most Christians pray.
Very few pray the way the Bible actually describes.
The gap between what we do and what Scripture teaches about prayer is wider than almost any other area of the Christian life.
Here are the things the Bible says clearly about prayer that most of us quietly ignore.
A thread. 🧵
Take a legitimate, reasonable concern. Attach a label to it. Shut the conversation down. Repeat.
Women's spaces - you're transphobic.
Biological reality - you're a bigot.
Immigration - you're racist.
It's been an effective silencing tool, which thankfully appears to be dying.
