The constitution give you a right to organize 30 of your neighbors, armed with guns, and chase them out of your neighborhood.
You also have the right to put buckshot into the face of anyone who illegally breaks into your home.

2 weeks? That’s like a once a decade vacation.


Well, if there are going to be consequences, I guess you have no choice but to comply.
Grandad is rolling over in his grave right now.


I totally believe this works, but there’s no way I’m clicking on any of those links
“Sure, ask me any questions you want. I know a lot about drugs, I do 'em all the time”
The beauty of open source projects is that if they are abandoned, other people can pick them back up. Sure it may be difficult, but if it wasn’t FOSS it wouldn’t even be possible.


He’d rather we just lay down and let him do whatever he wants


Naw man, nerds don’t salivate hoping that someone will break into their house in the middle of the night so they can throw 20 sided dice at them.


Who attacked gun rights? The guy making fun of hypocrites?


That was my Dad.
He was a lifelong republican who listened to Rush Limbaugh and was terrified of Immigrants. Literally thought Obama was the literal antichrist. Built a bunker and went “off grid” to avoid societal collapse.
Those people’s lives are based only on fear. Anything unknown to them is to be distrusted, feared, or destroyed. If this same shit happened when Dad was alive and youthful, he probably would have been wearing an ICE vest.


Because the NRA and decades of right wing gun culture have convinced Americans that the 2A is about their right to own firearms.
The 2A very clearly is about the right for armed people to gather together and use violence to protect their communities.


My gas stove has one really big burner for when you need extra heat, and one really small burner for super low heat. It’s pretty nifty.


Yes, there are induction stoves.
These use magnets to heat the pan directly, instead of heating an element which then conducts heat into the pan.
Since they don’t rely on resistive heating, they can actually be controlled in a much more precise manner. Maybe under the hood this actually involves cycling of the heat, but the result is something that for all intents and purposes “maintains temperature”
You can only use pans made of certain metals, which is the main drawback besides expense. No aluminum


Being cheap is a big part of it. The fact that it’s about as expensive to run gas as it is to run electric makes it make sense to consider gas in the first place
But also, gas is usually a superior cooking medium to any but the most high quality electric cooktops. Gas is instantly responsive, whereas electric heating elements take time to cool off and heat up.
When I was younger living in apartments, I had some really shitty electric stoves. Terrible consistency, hotspots, took forever to heat up and stayed hot for ages.
Oh and to answer your original question, I don’t think any modern denomination “believes” that stuff. Aquinas is considered an important theologian, but his ‘scientific examinations’ or whatever he called them are generally regarded as a product of their time.
I’m assuming by “minister” you are referring to some manner or Protestantism. That would make sense - the Protestant Reform was fairly recent compared to the Aquinas and Pseudo-Dionysus, and happened after the printing press and during the Renaissance. People were much more disposed to leave behind that sort of mythological baggage when starting their new religion.
It’s pretty wild shit, honestly. Milton’s Paradise Lost and Dante’s Inferno are both theological classics and they honestly read like high fantasy works at times.
I think that’s like, Thomas Aquinas level stuff and older. I think Aquinas systematized the beliefs, but they originated earlier with Pseudo-Dionysus and others.
That means it’s old school Catholic. But like, really old school, like 5th century Early Church stuff, hundred of years before the Great Schism. Seems likely that the ideas maybe were borrowed or influenced from even older religious ideas, but that’s just speculation on my part.
Ente Auth is another choice
