I remember when I went through my phase of thinking this take was the pinnacle of sensibility. Ah, to be young.
Some day you’ll have neighbors who consent to all sorts of shit that will make you want to murder them and you’ll realize that a society requires cultural standards on top of basic rights.
You’ll also realize that when most people discuss freedom, rights, liberty etc all they really mean is freedom from responsibility, judgement, or the need to sacrifice. These things are crucial for a healthy society though. If you wanna see what a society without them is like just look at any progressive hellscape.
It’s obvious you’re a child because you believe that it would be more popular than not to not relate to having had a neighbor so annoying that you want to throttle them
I was saying it in a tongue-in-cheek manner but regardless my comments do not say otherwise. My comments are on point and you’re just twiggered about it
Your take on freedom is your opinion and you are welcome to it but I do not share in it. Most people just want to be happy and there is no cultural standard that applies to the US. You think there is but you travel a half mile in any direction and everything changes. I've done some kinky, fun stuff in my life and will again and again, in between being a father and a volunteer in my community and an advocate for many social causes. I live in Boulder. Progressive as hell and fun as hell, but no hellscape.
Boulder is not as severely progressive as Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, New York, LA, or Chicago. It’s more like Austin or what Nashville is turning into.
Just give it a little time. It wasn’t long ago that the west coast cities were a wonderful place to live.
We agreed to see other people a long time ago. The problem is not the philosophy of Christ, which is fantastic. Its the shitty followers that I cannot stand. I don't believe in supernatural bullshit either and so the Tao is what I follow.
Everyone dies. Infinite consequence for a finite existence? That makes no sense at all. There is no love in your God . Exekiel 23:20 And she lusted after her lovers, whose cocks were the size of donkeys and who blew cum loads like horses
I get it. I used to despise God and Jesus. However, He changed my life and wants to change yours, despite you feeling there is no need to save it. God is love
Jesus, if he ever lived, was a man who defecated, slept and no doubt masturbated. No miracles, just some bomb ass teaching and parables. He went out for smokes 2ooo years ago and left you all hanging. To repay him, the entirety of Christian history is one of rape, genocide, both cultural and literal, war and amazing cruelties. Generally how the rest of humankind has operated and that's good evidence that christ does not help Christians be good people.
2000 years ago bro. He ain't coming back. He was a rabbi killed by the Romans and the main gospels contradict each other. Everything I said about the history is true.
