@AndreaW67952980 @GBNEWS @MMargolyes Exactly. Emotional mastery doesn't mean you must like everyone; it means you control your reaction instead of letting their words control you.

@DrNeilStone In what way did those remarks disadvantage the guy? If not then it was simply questions about his parentage. He is black, there is no escaping that, so what.

[Cornishman in Oz @stayoptimistic9]

@AndreaW67952980 @GBNEWS @MMargolyes People should have no expectations not to be offended. It's not the words but how they are judged by the individual. People should have great internal emotional management. Grow a skin.

@JeremyVineOn5 @DawnNeesom I receive the full UK age pension and live in Australia. I can't get the Australian pension, because they are astute enough to means test it. Just like that lady said, I use mine for holidays. If they stopped the money tomorrow I would be agreived but I wouldn't starve.

@NothingIsArt2 You don't eat a good pig like that all at once.

@JBucye @TheSkepticWiz It is human literature trying to construct a narrative of inevitability to comfort a specific, tribal group of people facing geopolitical annihilation at the hands of larger empires.

@NotEvolution1 There is no inbreeding signature in humans or animals, which would be the case with only 8 people and single pairs of animals. Seemingly the inbreeding occurred much later...

@mex_915 @Atomsmade Science 'discovered' antibiotics as it will discover much more. The quote is: "God is an ever-receding pocket of scientific ignorance".

@DmdiDm Who remembers the 'My Lai Massacre' only a few these days. No country is free from atrocities.

@PieterseMarc Those BBQ piggies are really tasty. Had them in Bali. Me not eating them wouldn't have prevented others doing so. As humans we have eaten meat throughout our evolution. Eating cooked meat being one of the main factors we have large brains. Wasted on some of course.

@evilsteveve The logic: If a person is asked, "Do you hold an active belief in a deity?", they can only answer with a "Yes" or a "No". As long as you sit on the fence, you remain a non believer.

@rmkenney1 @njoyzgrl81 Dementia is the umbrella term and Alzheimers is the common cause of dementia.

Both my parents succumb to dementia. If the law had permitted I would have shoot them both. If you kept a dog like that it would be cruelty.

@njthemarksman @Ernest1588761 Bring this to an end as you have obviously run out of steam / verifiable evidence. Ciao!

[Cornishman in Oz @stayoptimistic9]

@NotEvolution1 Because science has not yet discovered everything there are gaps in our knowledge. In time more knowledge will be gained. All religions choose to invoke a god of the gaps.

@njthemarksman @Ernest1588761 That was 1700 BC before you correct me.

[Cornishman in Oz @stayoptimistic9]

@njthemarksman @Ernest1588761 Now in Egypt and the 17th century. No ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic inscription has ever been found referring to biblical Joseph. Because Semitic people lived in Egypt - which archaeology confirms - does not prove the specific magical or miraculous events of the Exodus.

[Cornishman in Oz @stayoptimistic9]

@njthemarksman @Ernest1588761 I am not mixing timelines; I am testing a historical claim against physical reality. If the Exodus happened in the real world, its timeline must align with the physical evidence left in the real world. Where is it?

@EdgarAcajaimq9 @americannative_ Never said they were... my point is they are permitted to wear their hairstyles without prejudice.

[Cornishman in Oz @stayoptimistic9]

@njthemarksman @Ernest1588761 The pillars and alter? Archaeological surveys indicate likely built by Nabataeans and dated as being thousands of years later than biblical Moses. Rock Art, before Exodus. You are trying to make things fit, that actually don't. See you in the abyss.

[Cornishman in Oz @stayoptimistic9]

@njthemarksman @Ernest1588761 Academic Consensus: Most modern historians and archaeologists view the biblical Moses as a legendary or symbolic leader rather than a literal historical person. There is no evidence. It's all misinterpreted manmade nonsense.
