Most cops hate even being charged for their coffee, they expect it to be given to them freely. That’s just how Mafia-style racketeering organizations sponsored by the government are. But this is even ballsier than charging them for coffee— I think it’s awesome, good for them! At the very least now they can know better than to bother calling 911 if they’re being robbed. I also kinda fully expect this place to burn down under mysterious circumstances. Just one of those things. You know.
Well he’s certainly toxic enough, but I don’t think Vivek understands what R voters really look for in their candidates, soo… it will be a schadenfreudefest when the leopards finally eat his face.
Sorry to disrupt your echo chamber, you toxic arrogant blowhard.
Shush now. You may only express opinions here that are similar to mine. Otherwise you SHUSH
Lemmy.world is the worst, sucks to suck.
Would you put your mental health in the hands of a psychiatrist who diagnoses some patients with “demonic possession”? How the hell does this quack still have a license?
Calling out the Catholic Church on this does not negate the fact that other institutions are also guilty.
If I were being charitable I’d label these heretical creeds as Paulity. They have very little to do with the words and deeds of Christ, or living up to them, and far more to do with how Saul of Tarsus interpreted them.
You may recall the Catholic Church was born out of the first Nicaean Council, where they canonized the four gospels that best reinforced the idea of the supremacy of the Roman state, and burned the hundreds of other so-called “gnostic” gospels, which (judging by the content of the few that survived) far better encapsulate what I would consider “real Christianity”.
That said, the whole “No True Scotsman” fallacy really isn’t worth pursuing. It’s been this way since 325 CE, and there really is no painting a happy face on one of the most destructive and inhumane ideologies history has to offer. No matter what my opinion may be, you are correct in pointing out that the Paulity is the institution that is currently regarded as “Real Christianity”, as sick and anti-Christian as it may be.
