This thread is heavily bordering on CN material. I’ll give it a few posts before I punt it down there for its sheer stupidity.
1. I don't understand how or why two opposing forces (USSR and the USA) would conspire with each other in order to trick the world. This has no benefits for either side, since they both would have to use money in order to create fake footage to broadcast throughout the world.It wasn't the entirety of the USSR and USA governments, it was the space agencies, both of which have a vested interest in promoting Round Earth Theory regardless of reality.
It's going to trigger those with good taste in games.lol you haven't even seen the game yet
Some are more tolerant/less religious than others, I'd guess. Explain how you can be pro-abortion and religious. Pro-gay marriage and Christian.No one, outside of a psychopath, is pro-abortion. And it's not about being pro-gay marriage, it's about marriage equality. People were not advocating for a separate "gay marriage", but for equal marriage rights. And Christ was really clear on that shit
I'm using andchat on my galaxy s7. Which I've not had a problem with in the past. I just get a "connection timed out" message before connecting.Yeah I have no idea what the solution is I just figured that was the information the real nerds would probably want. I've never found a mobile IRC client that isn't ass, so I just use my computer and a web browser.
Anastas told me he's also having issues connecting. "Yeah it still gets stuck on 'opening SSL connection' ". Iirc he's using atomic irc or something.
I seem to be having trouble connecting on my mobile app! Any idea what the problem could be?What app/what phone/what's the specific problem or error code?
Considering it requires that you make, unanimously, ALL of the wrong decisions. Most people couldn't get her killed by just outright playing, but I'm really glad you lived down to expectations and made it happen.Yeah I got her killed too. Thork, we're not that different afterall. Just two good ol' degenerates trying to make it through life.
I guess I can only speak for my decade or so of experience within the Flat Earth Society. Of course, there are other Flat Earth organizations or individuals that are religiously motivated, but at least the type around here tend towards agnostic/atheist.For what it's worth, very few modern Flat Earthers are religious.
Are you sure? Some of the most prominent certainly are.
Can I suggest something?For what it's worth, very few modern Flat Earthers are religious.
If The Bible included passages which stated that the earth was spherical and it revolved around the sun, would we have the current situation with flat earth believers?
I think for most - for the religiously-motivated - it's less about an irrational belief in the shape of the earth, and more about being forced to perform mental gymnastics which appear irrational in order to support the notion that their holy book is literally word-for-word true.
Biblical Literalists would be just as against the flat earth theory as anybody else, if their holy book said the earth was a sphere (i.e., if those long ago Jews had figured it out and written it down, rather than either: a) not figuring it out; or b) not writing it down).
Conspiracy theorists, on the other hand...
I'd be interested in the views of longer term users of the site ... particularly those who use the upper forums.I've been dabbling in and out of the upper fora for a while, and I don't have much new to add, but I think Tom Bishop has the best approach here.
