I have read into it a bit (keep in mind I grew up with no actual Bible reading) and honestly some of it does feel like knowledge I had to learn the hard way through experience. As for prayer, I don't know, I've tried a few times when friends or family were at stake, I don't honestly know if anyone was listening. Maybe I'm too much of a cynic ass.

But I don't spend much time thinking about death or existence as far as my own life goes so I don't really spend much time pondering it - my brain is very much oriented on solving practical problems not existential. Even when I was in hospital and it looked bleak I didn't really think about what's next. It doesn't really weigh me down, but I guess I am an optimist even if I'm a cynic. I have had a few (atheist and agnostic) friends mention to me that thinking about mortality without knowing there is a heaven gets them down and I can't really relate.

Some people use a next life as an excuse not to try make the best of this one.

Is signing an agreement to turn a blind eye to actual crimes even legal?

The left has too big an obsession with what people stick their junk in and 'nice words' not actions

Oh there definitely is a lot of rot in the church, it's why my grandparents left, and looking at the Vatican you can see some of it comes from the top too, but when I say the Christians in my life I guess I should add I don't waste my time keeping assholes in my life.

But I've definitely found US atheists as a group a degree more insufferable than overseas, they tend to replace the more dogmatic aspects of US Christianity with other dogma. It's definitely not all, I'm friends with enough, but the tendency seems a bit bigger to me with them.

People on Twitter need to go outside and interact with the real world at some point in their lives.

Even with ranked choice it's statistically so unlikely these unanimous 100% Biden mail ins were legit you'd have better chances winning the lottery many times in a row, you'd need less than one-in-ten-thousand registered dems voting Trump (being generous and giving them the benefit of the doubt that they actually set aside 'legit' Dem ballots to count in one go without an Repub/Independent ones in there).

Not exactly strange when you have Chyna Joe and heels up as the alternative.

The fact the msm in much of the rest of the west is silent on this shows they'd be equally okay with election fraud occurring in their countries as long as it favours the globalists - maybe it already has. Everyone should be concerned about this.

With the EU in Ireland they forced the people to keep voting until they got the results they wanted, in many other countries they simply ignored the results of various referendums and steamed ahead anyways.

The blatant disregard for the will of the people in the worlds democracies and republics is astounding.

Covid definitely helped to prop up the MSM with the normies. Fortunately, based on those around me, people have lost interest in continually keeping up with the covid news, revealing that they knew about and willfully covered up voter fraud would be a yuge nail in the coffin.

Problem is many cops enforce the law, not the constitution, oaths be damned - look at what happens with gun control. Someone has to enforce it and often that someone is the police.

Haha, I think I killed any hopes of me remembering specific dates for my gf when I told her I have a hard time even recalling my own age in a timely fashion at airport checkpoints. For all I know she could be bullshitting me about them.

I don't think men or women will ever be the same, but I know I benefited hugely from having both parents around at different points. I don't think the idea that men and women could adopt some elements from each other is inherently wrong, but I do think having men and women that hate men and hate femininity teaching our kids in the west is only ever going to make that result in disaster. But I really do only mean adopt, I don't think we should be trying to change boys into girls and girls into boys like the left wants to. Individuals will fall where they may.

Again, I do wish more women I know were more assertive and honest about their opinions, it'd quell a lot of workplace problems I see where usually myself or another guy has to put their foot down if someone is stepping completely out of line treating everyone else like dirt (and even then, many men stay silent when someone treats them with disrespect). And the viciousness the women can show each other has no place in professional settings.

As far as men go, I think there's a real problem with men bottling everything up and some just carrying all the weight of their families problems on their shoulders alone. I've been to enough funerals where a friend, a friend's brother or a friend's cousin committed suicide and nobody really saw it coming to realise it's unhealthy. That said, the feminist 'answer' to that is to make men into weak, emotional crybabies, I don't think that's right either, you need strength so the people around you can draw from it, especially if you have kids, but I do think men need a good friend they can talk to when everything looks down. Women do do that better.

The left is kinda cursed in that they identify areas for improvement and where things aren't perfect and then just come up with the absolute worst 'solutions' to the problem. They're the epitome of throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I don't think it's a coincidence most of the extremists I met at university have very serious mental issues that hinder or completely get in the way of their ability to judge human nature.

Sometimes it's ignorance, sometimes it's malice. The left is both the herd of sheep and the handful of opportunistic wolves lurking within it.

Sadly the left are too busy debating how many hundred genders there are now or whether or not waxing a maam's balls should be a choice or a compulsory act mandated by the government. Oh and muh climate is gonna kill us in insert timeframe here.

US atheists are pretty insufferable as a group, overseas ones aren't (all) so bad - several Eastern Europe countries went very atheist in wake of communism but the people there still hate commies and are pretty based otherwise, if pessimistic in some places.

I've always been treated well by the Christians in my life even if they disagreed with me, they've always been polite but honest. I prefer that to fake niceness and acceptance anyhow.

Leftist atheists tend to dogmatically worship the state. Moral decay is a tool of the globalists, it isn't just that it's filling the vacuum left by Christianity, there are motives for them to push this decay on society - single, unhappy people spend much more than married, happy couples and consume more media, are more likely to be dosed up on antidepressants (which kill your libido, man or woman), are more willing to vote and push for the society to live in to be changed.

The fact he shot a burglar, a wife strangler and a pedo in the arm, the lung and the dick in that order is basically biblical

I don't think it's an act even though I generally wouldn't put it past them to try a stunt like that. Pretty sure in this case it's entirely heels up and the deep state waiting to take the reigns.

The repetition criticisms were stupid too. If something is a problem in politics ofc you keep talking about it, they acted like Trump saying similar things to now years ago is somehow wrong or stupid.

Meanwhile they won't shut up about their own talking points - covid, the fact we'rte all gonna die in ten minutes due to climate etc. etc.

The UK and Israel? What about the US deep state?

The west is effectively ruled by an aristocracy again, only this lot can just bugger off to another country when theirs goes under and continue ruling there. The media and the alphabet agencies are their long-reaching arms and their shield. They have the arrogance to believe they'll get a seat at the table with China as far as China's global ambitions go.

Trump and leaders like them are a serious wrench in their machine, they were hoping they could oust him so it'd be business, bread and circuses as usual again.
