- Comment on Your Truck is Stupid Big 6 days ago:
I had a Chevy s-10 back from those days that could pull those large trucks out the mud.
I don’t hate people who have trucks. You need it for work… and even large trucks maybe you need it out on the farm and it’s not your fault they keep getting bigger. You still need a truck for work and that’s just the way they come now.
If I see a CLEAN truck that large I’m pissed. That’s a vanity truck. A vanity truck that’s fucking with my sidewalk room.
- Comment on Why do we have alcohol advertisements. We don't allow cigarettes to advertise 2 weeks ago:
I agree with all that but is lime to see a tax on it to fund treatment centers.
- Comment on Why do we have alcohol advertisements. We don't allow cigarettes to advertise 2 weeks ago:
But we still sell cigarettes and we could still sell alcohol. Just don’t advertise it on tv and such.
As for addiction I disagree (I smoke) I stoped smoking for 2 years before my divorce. I never could stop drinking.
On top of that you (though it’s very difficult mentally” you could go from a pack a day to zero in one day without negative effects. I’ve done it once before.
Alcohol… I decided I needed to quit drinking a well ago, but I have to wait for a bed at a treatment center before I can quite. Otherwise I’ll die…
I think drinking is pretty dangerous.
“No body smoke occasionally “ paraphrasing of course.
Yes they absolutely do. “I only smoke when I drink “ is a very common thing. Lots of people only smoke when they get stressed.

I am aware of that. I just don’t see that as “problem solved” when they show a nice bourbon being poured onto clear ice.

You didn’t mention the king tho. Did he exist? He was gods spokesmen to the kingdom
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
But Mario the plumber existed.
Again this is just semantics at this point. We have different idea of what’s necessary to be “historically” a real person. You are allowed your opinions. What is life anyway? It’s all philosophical.
But…. If you are enjoying this conversation like I am we can continue.

Was king tut a really person? Did Pharos exist.

What about Charles I of England

Socrates would love to discuss if he counts as real.

Oh you’re the same guy. I don’t remember name calling bit if I did I’m sorry. I had probably started drinking and didn’t mean anything by it. Or something of the sorts. Might’ve caught me at a a bad time .
You’re allowed to be atheist and I’m allowed to be religious. Neither one of us are going to force anything down anyone throats? Then we’re both cool.
As for is Jesus real argument. We both seem to have different ideas of what exactly makes something “real”
In not going to try to convince you Noah’s ark is proven lol. From my view point Jesus past into the threshold of “close enough” you disagree, there’s evidence but you don’t believe it meets that threshold.
Agree to disagree. It’s a battle of semantics at this point.

- Comment on Why is the first thing the internet says whenever a relationship post comes up is: "Red Flag"/"Break Up"/"Divorce"/"Don't Walk, Run"/"Go No-Contact"/"Let them die in a nursing home"/etc... 4 weeks ago:
People are selfish. When you ask the internet what to do they will tell the most selfish thing possible and say “fuck whoever it hurts you need to look after yourself”
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
Right so Jesus existed . Glad we agree.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
One of those? Is there a lot of people who say dinosaurs existed so Jesus must exist? That would be a very strange argument for anyone to make.
Nice straw man argument. Have you named your straw man yet? I’ll call him Dylon . Right bring the Easter bunny in. Do you enjoy wrestling with the straw man argument you made up? Be careful its tick season lol
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
Mario is based on a plumber. Do plumbers exist?
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
A lot of stories about dinosaurs. We are confused about exactly how their feathers would look.
We know they existed tho.
It’s not probably not. It’s probably so. It’s just an argument about what exactly happened.
Do we know how the pyramids were built? No. But we know it wasn’t aliens.
There is confusion but not like people think.
Much like the pyramids we can assume Jesus existed. What exactly happened to which Jesus… that’s confusing but no one is denying there was a man. The pyramids are fact.
- Comment on We all know crack was introduced primarily to black neighbor hoods. Why them? Why not people in the Appalachians? Or in Asian neighbor hoods all over the west coast? 4 weeks ago:
Exactly. Don’t give the racist that much credit. It wasn’t a well thought out plan. It was simply “fuck them ngrs”
It’s not all that deep. Unfortunately. I wish it was a grand plan. It’s not. It’s just “fuck em”

Dude! You should’ve said that from the beginning! I’m a reasonable person too who just likes to talk!
Stalin killed arguabley for aithiesm. He definitely killed people for thier beliefs….
But I understand your question “did they kill for aithiesm (why can’t I spell that lol)”
No…. But if you acknowledge nopolean of France wasn’t killing people FOR aithiesm. You also have to admit no one was fighting the crusades to actually protect the holly land.
He’ll Donald trump and his followers say he was appointed by Jesus and practically worship him. Does that make the Iran conflict a holy war?
No religion doesn’t have anything to due with it.
I’ve been drinking so go easy and assume I meant things in good faith
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
He said Jesus is a fictional figure. He probably existed and yes there were more than one person with similar but that doesn’t change my argument.
If you say “this is Bob and he has a tiger” and I find out he does not have a tiger… he still exists as a person.
But you say “the stories about Bob don’t line up with any specific Bob”
Okay, that doesn’t stop Bob from being just because someone got a story wrong.

You’ll notice the Quran was said separately from the other stuff. I separated the two because it’s a religious book but not the Bible.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
No I’m saying don’t ignore history. I’m not pushing any religion. Just saying the man probably existed .
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Pol Pot, and Enver Hoxha
Pick up a book every once I a while.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
So what you’re saying is if Bob tells me (your name) has a flying tiger, and I later find out you don’t have a flying tiger… you no longer exists?
Hate religion all you want but don’t shit on history. In all likelihood there was a Jesus the story is based off of. Who was probably real. We have lots of non religious documents that mention him. The Quran mentions him. He probably existed as a person.
Like you exist as a person even though you don’t have a flying tiger.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
I don’t think he “converted” like that.
You know how the Queen of England never had a drivers license or passport because she’s the one who issues them and it would be silly to give yourself your own passport.
Jesus didn’t convert to Christianity . He was Christianity. It formed around him he didn’t convert.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
There’s a good chance he existed. The religious stuff you can say what you want but can’t confidently say he didn’t exsists.
