It's been the same with Christianity for most of the 2000 years it has existed. Christians had so many different interpretations they have been split up into splinter groups as early as 30 years after Jesus death.

Literalism is a pretty new concept, rougthly from the late 19th century.

If anybody is interested about the history, I can recomend Center Place`s newest video, a progressive church that has a lot of historical and very scholary lectures about Christianity and Judaism (no preaching or converting). Their lectures playlist is a treasure. And I say this as a very much not Christian or Jewish person.

Here is their video on Literalism

Du hast Lasfenrad falsch geschrieben, zumindest wenn meine Wohngegend da repräsentativ ist.

In Germany we have had a significant rise in homelessness lately. Hompless people are present in every city. France feels very much the same when I visit. Britain has loads of them.

We as a group maybe is not just US-Americans after all, but the minority world (the "West") as a whole.

It's a systemic issue, that is for sure. It just not on my the US system that is fucked. Maybe a bit more fucked, as Homelessness is more widespread that in Europe. But defenetly not exclusive to the US.

When you only are responsible for yourself this is a legit thing in my eyes. If this is the life he prefers and he is happy, go ahead.

Doing this when you have a child is an irresponsible asshole move in my opinion. You are forcing your child into a live that just can't be as healthy for them, physically and mentaly, then a more secure setting (that he had before) would be.

~~Easy to make misstake, but~~ it was Power Word: Pain, ~~not Kill~~.

You speak a word of power that causes waves of intense pain to assail one creature you can see within range. If the target has 100 hit points or fewer, it is subject to crippling pain. Otherwise, the spell has no effect on it. A target is also unaffected if it is immune to being charmed.

You... You think somebody let's moles onto people's yards? A pest is just an animal doing it's animal thing. It's humans that think their thought up idea of property gives them the right to kill another beeing.

Aber das wäre ja kompliziert und wer öfter auf Demonstrantionen ist, sieht aktuell eh eine massive Erosion des Rechtsstaates.

Beziehst du das auf die Beobachter Sache oder auf noch mehr?

It's telling that it needs the second sentence you wrote for me to realize you were speaking about Hitler, not Elon. I don't say he's gone of that far, but it wouldn't have supposed me at all.

Come to Germany. We don't talk to each other in public. Ever.

Smalltalk with the cashier? Hell no. It's just "Card or Cash? " "Card." "Receipt?" "Nope. Bye." "Bye". Every time.

Walk past each other on a tail. Maaaaaybe it will be a "Hello". That's it. Every time.

Da kommen wir mit 2 Personen und 2 Babys drauf 😬. Okay, wir kaufen Gemüse und Obst auch bei Alnatura, aber trotzdem.
