- Comment on Church of England refuses call for gluten-free wafers and non-alcoholic wine 3 hours ago:
There’s no exact number but when it’s counted in tens of millions I’d argue it’s not a cult so LDS isn’t a cult.
When it’s > 10% of the total population of earth then it’s silly to suggest they are a cult.
- Comment on Church of England refuses call for gluten-free wafers and non-alcoholic wine 4 hours ago:
Yeah 1/8 of the planet isn’t in a cult.

Read the comments on that link. They are informative
- Comment on Church of England refuses call for gluten-free wafers and non-alcoholic wine 6 hours ago:
You shouldn’t comment on things you clearly are not educated in.
For Roman Catholics this isn’t theater. They believe in transubstantiation so that really is the body and blood of Christ according to the faith.
Cults don’t have memberships that rival continents. There are more Christians on earth than there are Europeans.
- Comment on Church of England refuses call for gluten-free wafers and non-alcoholic wine 6 hours ago:
Anglicans do not believe in transubstantiation so the bread and wine are metaphorical and you shouldn’t feel obligated to take part.

If you’re American the CIA might not be your ally but no foreign intelligence agency can ever be your ally.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 3 days ago:
Having cleaned many toilets it is nowhere nearly as unpleasant as the life risking work that can take place in a sewer system.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 3 days ago:
Yes I believe organizing and doing are very different and sewer work falls firmly into an area of work that most wouldn’t do without substantial gain for that work. Humans are not inherently altruistic on that level
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 4 days ago:
non-profit events and mucking a sewer are very different.
- Comment on The key is to match the 4/10 pain with a 8/10 high 4 days ago:
Consider the fact that for many in chronic pain they do not realize that many people have none. For example I have two or three headaches a year and it is almost always related to caffeine intake or lack of it.

- Comment on I am required to pay taxes to the US government, not elon musk running a fraudulent government agency, why should I pay? 5 days ago:
Just make sure to set those taxes aside so if it does still exist you don’t end up in jail for nonpayment.
- Comment on I am required to pay taxes to the US government, not elon musk running a fraudulent government agency, why should I pay? 5 days ago:
You will be fined or jailed if you do not.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 5 days ago:
I have mucked a sewer line before. I don’t think anyone who hasn’t actually handled sewage should really take a second to ask if they would step up to do this and are they even capable of doing so (I cannot at 50 do this anymore).
This is where anti-capitalist ideologies have a shortcoming that needs to be considered as we have to move away from capitalism.

The first LDS family I knew were all rabid aggressive assholes. It’s funny that in hindsight these might be the most real and honest LDS followers I have met.
- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 6 days ago:
Ok but that answers neither of my questions.
If legal vs illegal immigration mattered why do labor economists agree that we should only have open borders?
If illegal immigrants are an issue why not arrest those that employ these people since the employers are the ones creating the demand for their work? Why take the ineffective action of abusing people guilty of a crime equivalent to a mild misdemeanor?

In wine we use terms for things that smell similar or have elements of something.

Syria wasn’t a genocide and neither was Afghanistan.
Andrew Jackson was genocidal though. Trump called him his favorite POTUS.
Trump likes his racist genocides
- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 6 days ago:
That sounds like you think immigrants come with more problems than they resolve. If that was the case why are labor economists in consensus that all nations should have open borders?
If illegal immigration was actually harming American society wouldn’t the reasonable response be criminalizing hiring undocumented people and arresting the owners of businesses that hire these people, yet at no point is this suggested can you think of a reason why?
- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 6 days ago:
Trump supports most genocides. You can’t be as much of a Hitler stan as that guy is without backing a lot of racist genocides. For fucks sake his favorite President was Jackson.
