- Comment on Desk jobs 1 week ago:
So true, every non-desk job is a non-stop nightmare of blood and guts. I’ve worked a physical job for 30 years and saw a guy twist his ankle once and another guy cut his finger and need two stitches. I pray the nightmares will stop
- Comment on Satan Was The Good Guy This Whole Time? 1 week ago:
Dahmer became Christian in prison so he’s in heaven now living in a mansion and walking on streets of gold, while you are going straight to hell to be punished for eternity for, like, saying curse words or something.
- Comment on Satan Was The Good Guy This Whole Time? 1 week ago:
A lot of Christians believe there were billions of people killed in the flood because they believe that people lived hundreds of years, had dozens of children and populated the earth in a short time.
This guy, who calls himself bible science guy, estimates 10 trillion people with a straight face and thinks that number is low. …wordpress.com/…/4-population-growth-how-many-die…
This guy claims 5 to 17 bullion and has fancy graphs www.ldolphin.org/pickett.html
This site claims 9 billion is conservative www.ldolphin.org/popul.html
This is all people who don’t know jack shit about population statistics practicing population statistics

- Comment on Alcoholic billionaire says he wants to shove a camera up every workers ass. 2 months ago:
If it’s up my ass, is it facing inward looking at my colon or facing outward looking at my underwear?
In the 90s, there was a funny website that had an article on the “world’s first rectal camera.” It was an article so I think it covered the “why” and “who” and “how” and everything. When they got to the photos, they were just normal photos with a round black border around them.
It was funny. I wish I could find it again.
- Comment on Every payment option has a fee 2 months ago:
My Allstate account doesn’t do that. There are no payment option fees. Is there something odd about your account? Have you had missed payments or insufficient funds when paying?

- Comment on You can't argue with his logic 3 months ago:
I’ve made this case to Christians before. If people who don’t hear about it get a free pass into heaven, after Jesus died, if they just didn’t say anything, everyone on earth would go to heaven.
Any time they go somewhere new and preach, they have to get 100% to believe just to keep the number of people going to heaven the same. Anything less and hell has gained some new souls.
Christianity is a recruitment tool for hell.

- Comment on On the seventh day, god created uranium 5 months ago:
Carbon-14 dating only works back to about 50,000 years, most fossils are older than that and they use radiometric dating.
(Not a scientist, I’m sure my wording will make experts cringe, but I think my gist is good)
Fossils are basically rocks that form around hard things like bones. They look at radioactive elements in the rock and figure out how much has decayed and they know when the rock was formed.
Uranium lead dating is one of the most used methods. In it, they look at zircon crystals and measure the amount of uranium and lead. Uranium decays into lead, so that tells them how long the decay has been happening.
That always seemed sketchy to me, how do they know it didn’t just have a bunch of lead in it to start with? Then I learned something…
When zircon forms, lead can’t bind with it and it gets pushed out of the zircon. Uranium doesn’t get pushed out, so there are small pockets of uranium in fresh zircon and no lead. A million years later, we just look at how much lead and uranium there is and get a very good idea at when it was formed.
- Comment on How do stunt people fall down stairs without hurting themselves? 6 months ago:
Not an answer but you might be interested in looking up “parachute landing fall,” a method parachutists use to distribute the force of hard landings throughout their body. I guarantee every stunt person knows the PLF and the stair fall is probably somewhat related to it.
I’ve noticed they definitely have a method for rolling down hills in movies, they always do it like this Princess Bride clip. Nothing but their arms and back and knees touch the ground.

- Comment on If I got in a collision with a car from the 70s with a car today, would not the 70s car win out since it would primarily be metal? If so why don't people buy more 70's cars? 6 months ago:
A lot of 70s cars were pretty damn ugly too

“The 10 plagues are proven, that there was a “tower of bable”, Sodom and Gomorra, the city, from what i know are also proven to have existed.”
None of those are proven. Egyptians kept good records and there are no records of Hebrew slaves in Egypt, and no records of the plagues or their escape. Furthermore, the Bible says the hebrews had 600,000 men in their army, which means easily 2-3 million people in all. This is roughly the same as the population of Egypt at the time.
I’ve never heard anyone claim there’s any evidence for the Tower of Babel so I can’t comment on that, but people claiming Sodom and Gammorah existed point to naturally occurring Sulfer deposits as proof.
“But i’d gladly would like to hear, why you think Iesus of nazared is supposed to be fiction?”
Mythicism, the idea that Jesus wasn’t a real person, is not new but has risen in popularity on recent years because of historian Richard Carrier. There actually isn’t much real evidence that Jesus existed but there is a little. Carrier basically ignores or misinterprets this evidence and isn’t well regarded in scholarly circles. His most recent work failed peer review, which he attributes to a conspiracy against him.
“The apostals all existed and their letters are one prove for that.”
We don’t have a single thing that we know were written by the apostiles. They were most likely illiterate anyway. The Bible books Matthew, Mark, Luke and John were written anonymously. Hundreds of years later, the church put names on them.
