That problem would probably get a lot less acute if you guys over there finally started to pay decent wages to teachers

Maybe they wanted to prove that the criticism was justified.

Completely independent of the baby having rights or not it is obviously endangering someone if they do not let them leave to see a doctor when the person has pain.

You are right. That would horrible.

You are right. Real Christianity is practically the opposite of fascism. But anyone can just call themselves Christian and we can't do anything about it.

Since the launch of the beta, Google says it saw over 50 million files transferred between PCs and Android devices.

Can someone explain to me why google needs to know when I am sharing a file locally?

Aragorn voice: "But today is not that day!!"

This is signaling exactly the wrong message to the violent protesters. They see "if we throw a tantrum they do what we want" it will lead to more violent protest.

The opposite reaction would be appropriate. Tell tgem "If you continue to be violent we will mock your prophet and your book even more". If those people really listen to the Quran this should stop the violence.

During Mohammeds time the Muslims would mock the gods of the polytheists. When the polytheists finally had enough and threatened to mock Islam if they don't stop, "Allah" revealed

Surah 6:108

˹O believers!˺ Do not insult what they invoke besides Allah or they will insult Allah spitefully out of ignorance. This is how We have made each people’s deeds appealing to them. Then to their Lord is their return, and He will inform them of what they used to do.

Only 6 years for raping a rape victim? Am I the only one who thinks that sentece should be way higher?

You could get a new garage door remote. The code should be as little switches on the inside of the old remote.

Also the Eiffel Tower, The Statue of Liberty and Spain. All stolen from them. So please give it back already.

Many routers have an option to login to a VPN. Then all traffic that goes over that router to the internet goes over the VPN. Theoretically something like that should also be possible with a Linux server if the server is local. With this setup you shouldn't need to configure the VPN on your local devices.

Beehaw seem to have refederated lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works

On the website https://bugmenot.com/ people can share their bs accounts. It has also a browser plug-in where you can select and automatically fill in fitting logins.

If you want to know real Christianity, read the Bible. I would recommend starting with the gospel of John.

That 16800 rs in the source is per month not per year. If it is 663 rs ($8.08) per day and lets say 10 hours of work per day then it is $8.08/10 ~= $0.80 per hour.

I think OP thought you meant a software driver but you meant a hardware driver, didn't you?

I would be happy to argue with them.

OK I think I now understand your comment better. I overlooked the quotes. Sorry.

That is actually very "Christianly". Jesus argued a lot. For example with the pharisees where they where wrong, etc.

I am new here so this is a little confusing for me. In the Beehaw post you linked someone writes that they see only lemmy.world posts that where synced before the defederation. But lemmy.world users should still see the posts of Beehaw since lemmy.world has not defederated from Beehaw only the other way round, isn't it?

But isn't religion also one of the protected classes? I would only state what i think my religion teaches I would not discriminate or cancel anyone and let other opinions stand. But when someone tries to cancel me for stating what i think my religion teaches wouldn't they discriminate against me because of my religion?

An appropriate response to their riots:

Who defines what is a "protected class"?

I surfed a little bit on E-H and I did not encounter any "white supremacist" content. You should also consider this: they did not defederate from lemmy.world. That means they still tolerate the opinion from here. So far only lemmy.world defederated from them because they can't tolerate this different opinions. And it is this kind of intolerance that interprets every deviating opinion as "nazi" and "white supremacy" and everyone who doesn't approve their lifestyle as "hateful" that let's me doubt if AskAChristian can be here. I fear that certain questions could not be answered honestly without it being labeled as "hate" and being banned and silenced.

By "society" you mean the majority of people? And when the majority of people thinks something is wrong that gives them the right to cancel out a minority opinion just by calling it "hate"?

If someone comes to AskAChristian and asks what does your religion teach about xyz would I not be allowed to answer because the answer could be interpreted as harassment of a protected class?

What do you understand as "tolerant"? Does it have to be always affirming? Say, I state that a certain behavior is not good. You disagree. I tolerate your opinion even though I disagree. But you state that my opinion is hateful and want it to be banned. Who of us is "tolerant"?

The point of this research is that renewable are cheaper. So why would we invest our money in the more extensive option?

you’ll never, ever hear me say something as ridiculous as “The Bible Teaches

But you did exactly that, you just worded it a little differently. You implied that you know what the Bible teaches and it is quote "fine".

I'm all for difficult questions. I'm asking if people would be silenced and banned for stating what the Bible teaches.

What I think the Bible teaches based on my own historical-traditional interpretation” is fine.

Whith this you are implying that you think your interpretation of the Bible is the right interpretation.

Whenever someone says, “the Bible teaches,” it’s a major red flag to me.

Is it only a red flag when others say they know what the Bible teaches or also when you say it?

Your link has a very shallow definition of the "No true Scotsman" fallacy.

A better definition is on Wikipedia:

No true Scotsman, or appeal to purity, is an informal fallacy in which one attempts to protect their generalized statement from a falsifying counterexample by excluding the counterexample improperly. Rather than abandoning the falsified universal generalization or providing evidence that would disqualify the falsifying counterexample, a slightly modified generalization is constructed ad-hoc to definitionally exclude the undesirable specific case and similar counterexamples by appeal to rhetoric.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_true_Scotsman

But I can argue that the definition of Cristian comes from the behavior and teaching of Jesus and the new testament and thus excludes bigotry hate and racism.

Also, telling people that they will be tortured for etwrnity (hell) [...] is ultimately bigoted and hateful.

Unless that is really true. Then it would be unloving to not warn people.

pompous word salad

LOL

Why is asking a question suddenly "amplifying the claim"? Could they not just have answered the question? It would, in my opinion, be especially interesting to know what the 4 year old "transgender patient" was treated for.

Nuclear energy can not be used to "plug gaps". The power that it produces can not be varied very quickly. The goal should be to only have renewable in the end.

It was Hamas who killed those children and women in Gaza. Hamas knowingly and intentionally provoked this reaction from Israel and they are the ones hiding behind the civilians shooting rockets from near hospitals. I think the reaction was calculate so they can additionally play the victims.
