  I beg to differ. If it’s not a CoViD test, where would you urinate?

  That’s a false dichotomy.

  The principle of double effect allows one to relieve one’s suffering with treatments having high mortality rates.

  J.C. doesn’t tiptoe around when it comes to kiddy diddlers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pope urges members of the Church to never cover up abuse⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is most likely directly related to today’s readings, which includes this verse from the Gospel of Mark, chapter 9 [NRSV]:

  ^42 “If any of you put a stumbling block before one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for you if a great millstone were hung around your neck and you were thrown into the sea."

  I’d argue it doesn’t accurately show the relative value at a cursory glance. The chart shows the area under the curve having decreased roughly 80-90%, but when looking at the y-axis, you can see that initial assessment was misled.

  I agree, it’s infuriating.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Women in STEM⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably people who have heard of these scientists being credited for their work.

  Wow, even the Catholic Church is ahead of the game on this one.

  I don’t think they’re suggesting taking it away from the rightful owner.

  Squeezebox has been through several names through the years. It’s now called the “Lyrion Music Server.”

  I once realized so many of my favourite businesses were cooperatives. I started thinking of what other co-ops I could start and grow. The excitement faded once I realized it would have to not be about the money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looks like something straight from Warhammer 40K⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I edited for clarity to explain that I’m referring to the subgenre pop punk, which one could easily argue is not punk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looks like something straight from Warhammer 40K⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d disagree. Stuff like this springs out of acts of popular piety. When you teach that the relics of people in heaven can work as prayer aides, it’s a foregone conclusion that some may want to to wallpaper a prayer space with the highest class of relics.

  It’s an unanticipated reaction to authority, ergo punk.

  Also, it was grape flavour, not cherry flavour Flavor Aid.

  This was definitely an unnecessarily gendered post. My wife’s primary function is transforming food into heat energy.
