Would be cooler if it inspired acts of courage for the Dems on the Hill.

It couldn’t possibly be the nutters took over the hero’s journey and made it about something else entirely by losing a bunch of books on purpose and taking everything literally.

I was skeptical - really skeptical. Then I read the article and cheered. Thank you.

Joke is on them; rapture and ascension are internal processes, not external.

Thanks so much for this share, OP. A veritable smorgasbord of food for thought, although a good portion gives vapors and indigestion.

Sometimes this kind of people sounds like they believe in the Bible and prophecies as impersonal laws of nature, and not in an intelligent creator of any sort.

Kind of. If a supreme being set into motion certain universal laws and always thwarted them for the benefit of this or that, one or group, the laws would be arbitrary, thus pointless. It’s up to us to let the pressures d/evolve us according to the idea of (a limited by circumstances and variables) somewhat free will. Some believers consider the most ignorant and slavish among ourselves closer to God than the most refined with the most spiritual knowledge and/or means. Iow it’s not the means but how they are utilized.

It’s reciprocal from the Jewish religious nutters.

I think they are actively trying to make the end times prophecy happen

They are, here and abroad. Zionists extreme extremists are trying to genetically engineer the perfect calf to sacrifice on the Temple Dome, in Israel. Christian extreme extremists in the US fund them.

I can relate to everything you’ve said here. You seem like a genuine and decent person, one I might like to have a conversation and exchange ideas. You seem like a person who, of our ideas on topics don’t align perfectly or at all, would make arguments that would be worth considering.

Thank you for letting me know you exist. I already feel richer, for it. 🪷

Maybe, I can’t remember. I don’t seem to recall it having advert execs but I don’t remember the rest of the story either. It was a long time ago. I remember the lesson, though.

When the world ends, collect your things, you’re coming with me…

This would be a huge turnoff for me, letting me know I’m dealing with an immature conceited person. Maybe forget “techniques” and be real. If they like you they do, if not who cares? Someone else will.

Recently I watched a video of a content creator in SA with a can of Rhodes beans on her counter on the bg and wondered if it was connected to Cecil… This article reminded me of this and an old sci fi novel about a company recruiting for Martian colonists, who ended up becoming slaves. I can’t remember the title or author, but we already see Leon making earth slaves, his family business is earth slaves, so only the poorest informed would go for this, or those who think they are Leon’s equals? I’m probably missing something, I ate well and it’s nap time.

Agree.

That’s one department, but once here, one there… ok

Yes, I was upset before that, but I’ve got a few years on you. I’m thinking I may have heard of Ben and Jerry’s being in occupied Palestine on the site that shall not be named.

Edit; maybe not, they came online in the early aughts, so maybe I’m misremembering. Could have been a BBS or IRC or maybe ICQ or even aol 😂

Also fair, but I’m a backwater hick 99.9% of my life and I knew about it. I really don’t remember how, maybe it was brought to my attention *after Unilever.

Yes, and they were in Palestine before then, and after the IPO.
