Being poor doesn't make you good, but hoarding wealth at that magnitude definitely makes you bad.

What have you done?

Dafuq does that matter here? This thread isn't about me. I could be an absolute shit stain of a human being, would that have any impact on your perception of Dolly Parton? Or any other hoarder of wealth?

If it actually is important to you, I've literally dedicated my life to bringing comfort and recovery to those suffering by dumping most of my waking hours into a career in nursing: I'll admit the past decade or so have turned me into a salty mofo... there's a lot of bullshit happening around us, locally and globally, and my idiot countrymen responded to that shitstorm by putting a pedophile Nazi in the Whitehouse... twice. So, I've lost a lot of respect for my community, but I still persist (for some fucking reason) with the mindset that doing good is actually worth striving for, so I keep showing up to wipe strangers' asses, cuz that's what they need.

...how about you?

She wasn't a billionaire, and was pretty far back in line for the guillotine, but I'm inclined to agree. Quick search shows a net worth of around $650 million, apparently reconciling the absence of taxation with an organization that donates books to kids. So, her philanthropy still amounts to crumbs, and she still hoarded an obscene amount of wealth in the face of a staggering level of suffering induced by poverty.

She was among the best of the worst, but that doesn't make her good.

Instructions unclear, got drunk at a nuclear si-- *mushroom cloud*

There's an on-the-go version that's super compact! Instead of stone, which is porous / relatively high concentration of air, these ones are made out of lead to get all that pie in as small a container as possible. It even comes wrapped in a tiny little pot for you to cook it in - you just tap the back while pointing it at a deserving world leader and *boom!* it delivers a tiny, hot pie right to their face!

Logic. Logic precedes the Creation.

Logic according to what? What makes you believe logic predates creation? If you're citing genesis, you might want to reread it: it's vague as fuck and certainly doesn't address the (non)existence of logic prior to creation.

Kinda sounds like you're making shit up, in which case you might want to review revelations too, which instructs not to do that or sky daddy will give you that eternal spanking.

Because freedom is not absolute

Yeah no shit, that's half the point of my last post, the other half being why it's so important to you for evil to be part of that freedom, which...

Since God is love, freedom in relation to God is necessarily the freedom not to love and therefore, the freedom to do evil.

Speaking of logic, that's flawed as fuck. The absence of love is not synonymous with the presence of evil. The absence of love is just the absence of love. All the people, critters, things in your life that you've paid no mind to? That's absence of love. They mean nothing to you - and that's fine. The presence of love? Your friends, family... I don't need to elaborate here do I? But evil? Hopefully this is something you've never been compelled to do - causing suffering for its own sake. That's not fine... and the universe we're stuck in is absolutely stuffed with it.

So again, why does free will - even specifically in the context of freedom from love - have to include evil?

That only works if you get a numbered response.

Respond to my email in a stupid way, the next ones will be stupid proof. Whether or not we're friends is up to you in this case, but if I need to treat you like a kid to get the information I need, you better believe I'm gonna.

...and which defining pillar of your god are you going to rugpull to rationalize the world being able to escape god's will?

Every explanation for this shit is him situationally not being all powerful, all knowing, or all good.

...every single time I've run into that wording, it's in response to a question that their initial email doesn't address. You've never run into that?

Usually it's when I have multiple questions lumped into one email, they answer the first one and ignore everything else, then get butthurt when I ask for a follow up. They can "I already fuckin told you" all day long, but they didn't actually already tell me.

I've since learned to keep work emails at like a 3rd grade reading level. Couple sentences max, one question per. If I have lots of questions, they'll be slowly trickling into your inbox spread out over a week or so. And if they start getting snarky, I start CCing their and my supervisor.

Welcome to any and every industry that uses email.

There's an even better trick too: skip the fucking email and just go knock on their office. Gets shit done 10x faster.

Impossible according to what? The laws of the universe that god made? Couldn't he just as easily have made different laws?

And why is the capability to commit evil always a defining characteristic of free will? We also cannot breathe underwater, fly, or lift a freight train with our god-given anatomy, so do we actually have free will?

Compare it to our own legal system: you have free will to choose what you want for dinner tonight, right? Loads of restaurants with loads of entrees, grocery stores stocked with whatever you need to cook up your creation: the combination of options is unfathomably vast. Free, right? ...but wait, according to the law, you're not allowed to cannibalize your neighbor's 4 year old kid, so I guess that makes you a mindless drone cuz if evil isn't on the menu then neither is free will.

So let's put that restriction back in god's court: he doesn't need to enforce his law, he just wills it and so it is: you still have the unfathomably huge number of non-evil options, but this time cannibalism is actually impossible: you are literally incapable of committing or even considering it because divine intervention will not let you - do you have free will?

Our freedom exists within the constraints of some system. Both legal and divine. There are loads of things we aren't free to do - the capacity to commit evil taken away from us would be a drop in the ocean.

If your god is not all powerful, then your religion lied to you about what your god even is.

According to your lore, his will is our reality - he isn't bound by the laws of our universe, he made them. So he didn't just allow evil and suffering to exist, he actively put it here. Why worship a being so full of hate?

It works in reverse too!

Life's too short for that petty bullshit.

*sigh* fine, switching to another timeline...

I found a wallet a year or so ago. Address on the ID was pretty close, so I just drove it out there myself.

Garage was open with a dude working on some project inside - definite match on the ID photo... big ol Trump sign in the yard. Drove right passed that bitch.

There's a small homeless camp on the way to work, so I just hung onto it until the next day. Yeeted that mofo cash and all out the car window and over the fence where some of their tents were - pretty sure it made it roughly where I was aiming, which should have had it found probably within the hour.

Hopefully they had a field day with his credit cards; if not, there was about $30 in it, so they at least got a nice boost from that.

Moral of the story, if you find something akin to a wallet, do a little investigating before returning it. If it belongs to some piece of human trash, uh, what wallet?

Teen Boys Men of all ages Are Using Meta Glasses to Terrorize sexually harass Girls women of all ages at High Schools and Middle Schools everywhere.

Hadn't actually considered that. Hopefully not. There weren't any people gathered around there, so it wouldn't have caused a rush to claim it initially. My thinking was that if there was anyone in the tents they would have heard it hit the ground and come out to investigate; or if no one heard it, it would be in a fairly visible spot when they return. Either way, again hopefully it would have been an individual stumbling across it, vs a group to start fighting over it.

...but I just pulled over, chucked it, and immediately drove off, so no idea how it played out.

It is illegal to shoot a drone out of the sky

Yeah well, it's illegal to hold an insurrection against the US government, kidnap and imprison foreign country leaders, serially rape both adults and children, and defraud US elections, but it would seem being illegal doesn't actually mean anything.

Enlisted are still oath-bound to engage Trump the same way they do any other enemy of the US.

They are also obligated to follow his orders, but only if those orders are legal. While fucking bonkers that the same oath requires them to do both, it isn't actually a conflict: they can still follow legal orders while taking measures to depose him. Hell, they can even follow those legal orders posthumously. But that doesn't free them from their duty to defend us against domestic enemies like Trump. Their inaction thus far is a violation of their oath and dereliction of their duty.

Scroll to your heart's content.
