  • Some of the very nastiest people I’ve ever met in my life were xtians that were just like that. The icing on the cake was that during a period of my life when I was in the hard atheism camp, these types would taunt me and say that I was going to (their) hell and they were going to be in heaven watching me burn.

    Nothing about any of that kind of “morality” makes even the least bit of sense. Douchebags like this who claimed they are “saved” and can behave like total monsters in their lives would be eternally rewarded, while someone that didn’t accept the fairy tales they did would be eternally tormented? The only differentiating factor is that they “accepted Jayzus into their heart”.

    That sounds more like the fantasies of psychopath rather than any kind of moral system.






  • It’s a perfect precursor to the level of grift they are trying to get to if they are not stopped:

    Donald Trump has laid the groundwork to become one of the wealthiest people on the planet by personally making money from every dollar printed in the United States. And the worse the economy gets, the more money he stands to make. The House has already passed three crypto bills that would make this potential a reality by allowing the Trump family to control the global stablecoin market. Now it’s up to the Senate. It’s a wild story that the media won’t report on because they don’t get it. But some very powerful people have figured it out and now the race is on to stop Trump from becoming the shadow central banker to the world.















  • I suppose if we kept the Senate and had the number of Senators properly apportioned, but maybe not as many as Reps, it’d be okay, if there is meant to be a more “prestigious” wing of Congress.

    What I most hate about the Senate is that backwater deep red states get two senators to equal two senators from the likes of California.

    If any state is going to lead this nation into the future it’s most likely California. And they grow so much of our food, to boot. I realize it’s wildly fashionable among the right since forever to have California Derangement Syndrome and want others to actually believe that something like Idaho is the equal of California (or even better, LOL). But it’s just the truth that California is not only an economic powerhouse, but a cultural one, too. And so many people live there to boot.

    But they get held back by this ridiculous system where their representation in the Senate count the same as some flyover state. I’m sorry, plenty of people think it’s elitist to say this, but that’s just absurd and backwards.
