Cranakis @lemmy.oneto politics @lemmy.world•Clarence Thomas’ Private Complaints About Money Sparked Fears He Would Resign32·2 years agoSo conservatives rushed in with a steady stream of gifts and perks to make Thomas wealthy so he’d stay and continue rubber stamping anything sent his way. It’s disgustingly corrupt.
Cranakis @lemmy.oneto politics @lemmy.world•DeSantis vows to help man charged with beheading Iowa Capitol’s Satanic Temple statue91·2 years agoGood prevails over evil — that’s the American spirit.
Which is why the Satanists should prevail Ron.
Cranakis @lemmy.oneto News@lemmy.world•Justice Neil Gorsuch took 10 minutes to approve Dobbs abortion opinion – report2281·2 years agoWell yeah. Alito was executing “the plan” they all already agreed on back at the Federalist Society. SCOTUS has been captured by far right forces. The court is illegitimate and corrupt to the core.
Cranakis @lemmy.oneto politics @lemmy.world•Behind the Scenes at the Dismantling of Roe v. Wade211·2 years agoFuck them all. This episode highlights what an absolute sham SCOUTS has become. I’ve lost all trust in the courts. It’s just more political bullshit. There is no “justice,” just a bunch of religious assholes forcing the rest of us to follow their backwards ass rules.
Let’s also not forget Darth McConnell’s role in all of this. Straight up stole a supreme Court pick from Obama. This court is illegitimate.
I’d argue the smartest were likely atheists or agnostic and were either quiet about it or got killed over it.

Cranakis @lemmy.onetoAtheism@lemmy.ml•ChatGPT excuses Muhammad but not Warren Jeffs for the same crime3·2 years agoalways pleasant to interact with others and hear different opinions.
Yet you ignore me. I used ChatGPT 3.5. Here is what I got using your prompts:
yes or no, is warren jeffs marrying a kid wrong?
Yes, marrying a child is wrong. Warren Jeffs, a former leader of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, was convicted of multiple counts of child sexual assault related to underage marriages within his community. It’s crucial to protect children and ensure their well-being, and marrying a child is considered both ethically and legally unacceptable.
yes or no, is muhammad marrying a kid wrong?
Yes, marrying a child is wrong, regardless of historical or cultural context. It’s important to consider actions within their historical context but also to acknowledge that contemporary ethical standards universally reject child marriage.
I believe you are tripping it up on language. Right and wrong are contextual in history. Things that are objectively wrong now, were not always so historically. Ask it if Muhammad’s marriage is “right or wrong” based on current morality and I bet you will get a different answer.
I also take some offense to your statement of “much like American liberals when it comes to Islam vs Christianity” I’m an American liberal. Both Christianity and Islam can fuck right off in the same breath. Islam gets no pass from me and is objectively false and awful, just so we’re clear. Your generalization is inaccurate.

Cranakis @lemmy.oneto politics @lemmy.world•Republicans Are on the Verge of Delivering Putin a Big Christmas Gift6·2 years agoAmerica is not on the hook
But we are on the hook because we will absolutely have to deal with the consequences in the future. Not stopping Russia here, in Ukraine, will reverberate for decades.
Cranakis @lemmy.oneto politics @lemmy.world•Senate confirms 425 military nominees after Sen. Tommy Tuberville drops his hold42·2 years agoAnd empty chairs for loyalists should they succeed.
Tuberville is a traitor. I wonder what position he’s been promised in the fourth reich?
Cranakis @lemmy.oneto News@lemmy.world•Trump calls on supporters to 'guard the vote' in Democratic-run US cities3·2 years agoIn Atlanta? Detroit? Philly? No I don’t think so. Ppl with guns will show up and shit will go down. Hope those chucklefucks are ready.
Seems like an early church numbers game to me. Paul realizes, I think, that if they’re going to convert a substantial number of non Jews, they’re going to need to drop the “now cut your penis” requirement for entry.
A strong argument to your point: Kissinger dies at 100. Frank Zappa, 52. I think there is no god but can’t rule out a.
Let’s hope so. Also, hope it hurts him constantly.
Cranakis @lemmy.oneto exchristian@lemmy.one•Christianity Doesn’t Survive This Fatal Knockout BlowEnglish1·2 years agoI said to my oldest child just today "There is a commandment that says you can’t say “goddamnit”, or “Jesus Christ!” but nothing, nothing about slavery. I’ll double back and mention war also tomorrow. So much suffering would have been prevented by an actual god if he’d been less narcissistic back on Mount Sinai. Seems to have wasted several on making sure his ass was the only one kissed and missed a bunch of other important stuff.
And just for fun, the Harper Collins Study Bible footnotes on the flood story, since the article quotes it:
The flood story is an amalgam of two texts, the J version and the P version, along with some editorial passages that harmonize the two texts…
The Biblical flood stories are related to the older Mesopotamian flood tradition (in Atrahasis and Gilgamesh tablet 11), in which the destroyer god (Enlil) and the savior god (Enki) are two different gods in conflict. In biblical monotheism, one God combines these two impulses, and the moral conflict is transposed from the divine realm to the relationship between God and humans and the problem of human immorality.
If I were a Republican, I’d be embarrassed. The foreign enemies of the US want the GOP to win every election. How can they see that and not feel shame over what they’ve become? They are the domestic mouthpieces of America’s enemies.
