  • nor were the nukes really theirs to give away or keep.

    Whose were they? They had been built and owned by the USSR, but that country ceased to exist.They were on Ukrainian soil when Ukraine became an independent and sovereign nation.

  • When I was around 20 and looking for purpose in life, I actually really tried to get into Christianity.I mean, they seemed to have a light guiding them through life, something that takes away the feeling of senselessness and chaos in the world. I especially loved the idea that "you can never fall deeper than into god's hand".So I prayed to god to show me the way to him, went to the local church every Sunday, and started reading the bible.All of it. Cause I obviously wanted to know what I was supposed to believe in. And it completely killed my desire to become a Christian.

    The only way to make sense of it, for me, was to interprete the old testament as a collection of the stories that goat herders told each other to make sense of world history, followed by a heavily propagandized history of the Israelite people, legitimizing their claim to Israel after displacing and genociding the people who had lived there before.The new testament is the story of a wandering preacher who tried to establish an early version of peaceful communism.But when that became too popular, the Roman state embraced and co-opted the message and turned it into the basis of a hierarchical state church, which later turned into Christianity as we know it today.

    Since I read God's book while praying to God and that was the interpretation I was left with, I have to assume, it's the one God agrees with ;)

  • If you ask me to tell you about me, and follow up with "what else?" then this is going to be a short date.

  • How do you personally use upvotes/downvotes?

    Jump

  • I upvote every post and comment I reply to, and every reply to one of my posts or comments, cause I think the fact that we're communicating here is pretty neat.Unless the reply really isn't neat at all, then I don't vote.I downvote obvious trolls, ragebait, bad faith arguing and rule breaking.

    When do parents stop seeing their kids as children?

    Jump

  • Never. My dad still sees me as his child. But he also sees me as an adult man who he can talk to at eye level, and he's started asking me for advice on subjects I know more about than him. I really love the relationship we've developed.Man, I'll call him right now and tell HIM that.
