Damn, I guess being anti-religion isn't enough? I have to be specifically anti-Christian? This site is so fucking mercurial and petty in what it decides is and isn't acceptable speech. Post something in vocal opposition of religion butting in on science's turf and get showered with agreement *unless I pick the wrong specific word to use in a generic throwaway reference to well-known religious structures*, in which case I might as well be a secret MAGA troll. Fuck me sideways.
21*. You based your numbers on the age of the mother, not when the mother actually became pregnant.
If I had said basilica, synagogue, jinja, or wat instead, would it have changed my point in the slightest? A mosque is just one religious building out of many, and it says more about you than about me that you chose to hone in on that meaningless detail.
The word "neuter" etymologically means "to make gender-neutral", which is a process that can be done to either males or females. The male-specific term is "castrate".The phrase "spay or neuter your pets" comes from Bob Barker, not from the dictionary, and I'm pretty sure he used the term "neuter" instead of "castrate" because the TV network didn't want him to associate the closing remarks of the show with the mental image of cutting off someone's penis.
There's a difference between thinking the city's limited budget should prioritize maintaining roads over restoring memorials and thinking that "brown people" should go back to where they came from. One is a political opinion, and the other is disgusting bigotry. Learn the difference.
In the movie, the Atlanteans, a people cut off from the rest of the world for almost 9000 years, are somehow fluent in both classical Latin and modern French (not to mention know who the Romans were). The intricacies of their alphabet system aren't the first linguistic/historical foul that come to mind.
So what you're saying is that the parts of religious practices and rituals that aren't themselves inherently religious (meditation, therapy, counseling, medicine) are beneficial?
In theory, science and religion can coexist as two different non-overlapping systems. In practice, religion can't help but spill its fat lard ass across its boundaries all over science's domain and then pop up a cardboard mosque like it owns the place. If one kid refuses to play nice with the other kids, it's time to remove them from the sandbox.
No they still pop up from time to time to downvote the anti Trump posts.
I can spend 20 minutes on the toilet as much as the next guy, but if it's actually taking you 20 minutes to shit, you might want to see a doctor about that.
Except no one calls a hysterectomy/oophorectomy "castration" so your point doesn't really apply here.
In pets, removing the ovaries is the more common procedure.
Neutering is the general term that applies to both males and females.
Fun fact, Miracle Whip has the same origins as margarine and Velveeta in that it was a Great Depression cheap substitute for mayo that used sugar and artificial emulsifiers to create a cheap dairy-free alternative. The recipe added eggs later, but it's still mostly that same oil-based spread that the older generation cultivated a nostalgia for.
This isn't entirely true. Places in Europe that historically make aioli differ regionally in whether or not the recipe includes egg yolk. Though it's true that in modern commercial applications the difference between mayo and aioli is largely just the price tag.
My reasoning is slightly different:If God exists, he is malevolent.If God is not malevolent, he is indifferent.If God is not indifferent, he is ignorant.If God is not ignorant, he is impotent.If God is neither malevolent, indifferent, ignorant, nor impotent, then why the fuck does so much pointless and preventable evil shit happen everywhere on a daily basis?Conclusion: God either doesn't exist or he isn't a god worthy of our worship.
Wow, a storm of downvotes? I would think that Imgur of all people would be just as pissed as I was with how much NASA has been treated as a second class citizen ever since the cold war died down and the space race stopped being a political dick measuring contest.
Okay? Now tell me why the government should buy SpaceX instead of using that money to start actually properly finding NASA again.
Bold of you to assume he will wait until January.
The government already has one woefully underfunded space agency. What makes you think it would benefit from getting another one?
I thought the secret ingredient was crime?
Most of the things that work contain the same or similar chemical compounds as actual medicine, so at best you're getting the same stuff you would get from medicine but in much smaller diluted doses. And then there's stuff like chamomile that only has anecdotal supporting evidence, and the limited research that's been done hasn't yet found that it's more than marginally more effective than a placebo.
If you can prove it wasn't your fault and you get punished anyway, that *could* be grounds for a lawsuit.
They still took some damage, and since they were parked illegally it's unlikely that insurance will pay out, so... *shrug*
At the federal level, yes.
Or get a not-shit cart with inflatable rubber tires that can absorb the small bumps instead of hard plastic ones that can feel the 0.25mm indent from across the street.
Sounds like a good argument for why venues shouldn't design their floor layout to be overcrowded by default. There's gotta be a fire code violation happing in there somewhere.
The deputy mayor is a rationalizing asshat.
