where?

The nice thing about religious faith is that most minds can hold only one at a time. I may believe in an oddly resurrected deity who took the shape of a man, but I don't have room for anything crazier.

"We are fools for Christ's sake." 1 Corinthians 4:10


Is that the nice thing about religious faith? Polytheism seems somewhat more tolerant of others. And religious pluralism takes in one step further.

I am sure about few things, but it seems to me that monotheism and religious exclusivism at some times represent the worst aspects and outcomes of religious faith.


> most minds can hold only one at a time. [...] I don't have room for anything crazier.

I feel you aren't accounting for exactly how much "crazier" churches/sects can be, both currently and historically.


Whatever your view of religion, you are not very good at literary analysis. The verse you quote, in full:

"We have given up our wisdom for Christ, but you have insight because of Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are honored, but we are dishonored"

Not quite the same of what you imply is it?


But now I don't know what you think it means. Who do you think "you" and "we" are in this quote?

Go read Corinthians? I'm just pointing out it was quoted halfway through to make it sound like Paul just wrote "we dumb" in a letter.

Right. But you didn't quote it in full either, so I couldn't figure out what you thought it said.

So yeah, there's a base unit of meaning which is well beyond one or two verses (something I wish the church would learn).


Sure, but it is that Christ, Buddha or any of the other incarnations of the same idea? I am right there with you, believe it or not, but don’t John 3:16 the wrong football game.

I think you got downvoted unfairly because I really think you're sincere. My brain heard your comment in the voice of Nightcrawler from X-Men—and as the descendant of German Catholics, he's become one of my favorites.

I love that and want to know what that voice sounds like.

Also I want to add some Claremont era flourish to my response, ja?

Enough legal/illegal/asylum drama for it to become an election issue. Hard to hide rape statistics.

So media blowing it out of proportion as usual?

Even 1x/ONE rape of a citizen by someone who shouldnt even be there is too many. Its not disproportionate to do no harm and correct the mistake

Interesting way to phrase that. The easy way to solve rape is to castrate all men. We can save some sperm in case of wanted pregnancy, but since the vast majority of violent and sexual abusive crime is committed by men, it would be the most rational solution to the problem. Eevryone would be safer, even us castrates.

I guess we bave or should have as much control over immigration/asylum policy as we have over the diceroll of sex determination. Interesting gamble, cant see anything wrong with that. Also, why stop at males, females rape too so in the spirit of equity they should undergo the same prophylactic castration and that will be that

At least now riders are being added to applications and agreements that dispose of any cultural argument or litigatory posture that various misbehaviors were not understood to be barred prior to admission or status being granted.

The System is healing


it's funny how insane reasoning like yours has been normalized to justify equally insane policies of letting unchecked thirld worlder in

There's an escape valve: I've had Claude stand-up AI-enabled features in my app, so we're much less dependent on Claude itself. The app uses cheap API calls to check code quality and run other "lessons learned" sweeps. Some of these become regular code in the end as well.

Same. Claude "loves" writing tools to make checks deterministic so much that I actually have to pull it back sometimes and point out that some things need to keep using LLMs. But even then, I have it "farm out" a lot of things to scripts using dirt-cheap models for things I don't need a Sonnet or higher level model for as well. The proportion that runs on the SOTA models keeps dropping.

I agree. National Socialists and Fascists are unacceptable. Also their cousins - International Socialists.

Any ideology that has a body count measured in the millions is my enemy.


So capitalism is also your enemy?

It's also your enemy.

at this point, kinda yea

Getting back to some of what we had before [redacted] came to America.

Summary of Song:

Person has feelings. Situation is complicated. Repetition indicates feelings are significant. Several metaphors were used instead of just explaining the problem. Conclusion: still sad, but now with drums.


You're absolutely right!

(At our office, we jokingly use AI-isms as we accuse each other of being meat proxies for our AI overlords.)


We have to find you first. The 4D labyrinth you're in is almost impossible to navigate.

I spent my childhood using crappy 4K versions of BASIC. Love my career. Still get to do everything from embedded nonsense to database architecture.

My son started on Scratch, then Minecraft, and 15 years later he's working on designing jigs in parametric CAD for space lasers. I'm sure he'll be fine.
