   I actually believe Jesus came to show us that we are all one with God. When people said he was blaspheming, his response was not "I'm a one-of-a-kind god/man combo"... instead, he said: "“Is it not written in your L

   There's an interesting bible verse that I've never heard quoted in churches: "BE NOT OVERLY RIGHTEOUS, and do not make yourself too wise. Why should you destroy yourself? Be not overly wicked, neither be a fool. Why should yo

   Ever heard of Vioxx? It was a new drug to treat a condition which was already treatable with other drugs. Vioxx caused tens of thousands of deaths (~50,000?). Transparency is paramount with new medical interventions.

   He's certainly painted as a crackpot, so it makes sense it would seem that way. But I've found it's better to have your reality as unfiltered as possible (listen to the guy directly rather than listening to what other people

   But what twitter rules did he break? (And are those rules simply a formalization of censorship)

    I agree. This broad brushing / lack of nuance reminds me of the kind of religious thinking prevalent ultra-conservative churches.

    You're saying there is no chance that the vaccine facilitated the evolution of the variants (you know, like how not completing a round of antibiotics can foment evolution)?

    I'm not affiliated with YC, but people are not commodities - one person might be a $50,000/yr X, and another person might be a $200,000/yr X. You don't know what kind of person you have until you talk with them.

    I was raised as a preachers' kid in the ultra-conservative Church of Christ Christian denomination, and I thought we were the only ones that had the truth and everyone else was going to hell. But I wondered why God doesn't show hi

    I'm not meaning to bash spiritual beliefs (I believe we're all part of One God - "members of the body of Christ"). But I believe darkness works strongly in many religious groups (both traditional and progressive). Here&#

    As someone who grew up in a very traditional fundamentalist church (preacher's kid), I think the religious extremism mindset is the problem - the "We're the right ones, and they other people are evil" mindset. Both sides

    Personally, I hold the panentheistic ("all in God") view. It's very similar to pantheism; the distinction is that pantheism would say Universe=God, and panentheism would say Universe⊂God.
