Oooh I totally forgot that I did play with MS Paint! I invented cities, countries, or I just did what you described. Fun times!

Same, but “as long as I can” generally means a few hours.

C’est la voie.

Not really. Anarchists generally recognize the authority of specialists (scientists, doctors, …), they just refute them the right to impose their ideas on individual. It’s a little stretch, but officers in an anarchist army would be like specialists, whose authority is not imposed, but freely recognized.

Oh I know more or less how the American law works. But I think it’s a bad one, that’s all.

I’m French, and in France hate speech is illegal. Negation of crimes against humanity is illegal. Defamation is illegal. And you know what? France is still a free country. Freer even maybe, as our other freedoms and rights (like our rights to live peacefully) are more protected.

I disagree. Free speech should have limits, like every other freedom, because freedoms oppose each others. Insults, defamation, threats, calls for hatred, lies, … shouldn’t be covered by free speech.

Diggy diggy hole, Diggy diggy hole !

That means I could write from @[email protected] to @[email protected] using Sup? That would be cool indeed. But if I have to create a Sup account, not so much.

Loops and Pixelfed I know. As I had no interest in Instagram and TikTok, I never tried them, but I get their purpose. But what is Sup? Why would I want my messaging app linked to the Fediverse?

No. There is a range of hypotheses, from “none” to “because a supernatural creator willed so”, but they’ll stay hypotheses. You can study them and find which one makes more sense for you, but there will never be certainties.

A small French protestant weekly called Réforme. I doubt the title in itself is relevant for you, but the periodicity is just right to have fresh news but with hindsight.

That’s one of the reasons I’m subscribed to a weekly magazine.

I begun judo a few weeks ago. The teacher was clear: it may not be useful in actual fight, but we don’t fight often in the real life. But it’s great for your body, spirit and it will teach you how to fall without hurting yourself. And these things are way more useful than self defense.

That’s exactly what an IT person would say to hide the fact they watch what I do on my computer!

The bronze was discovered during research into more efficient gym machines.

Accurate, not at all.

Widespread, not much.

The general answers to this question is or that Cain married his sister (fundamentalist view) or that Adam and Cain are metaphors and didn’t existed at all (mainline view).

It depends on how you define omnipotence.

God may exist or may not exist. And you can break all the rules of logics when you write fiction.

It doesn’t mean it’s not interesting to apply the rules of logic to the idea of God. It’s even an important part of philosophy.

Yes communication is possible, just not directly, hence the signs and the symbols.

As for Jesus, even if he’s God and a human at the same time, it doesn’t mean that he would be able to speak divine truths directly. An infinite being as God cannot be rendered in a finite language.

I never encountered the first one, but I did not read everything 😅
