If you haven't seen this week's Last Week Tonight, John does a deep dive into Project 2025, which is a plan to help Trump replace civil servants with partisan ####faces who's goal is to ultimately turn America into Gilead.

Mr Huffman said: “Project 2025 is more than an idea, it's a dystopian plot that’s already in motion to dismantle our democratic institutions, abolish checks and balances, chip away at church-state separation, and impose a far-right agenda that infringes on basic liberties and violates public will.

Probably nothing to worry about, though.

As a White Male...Gilead wasn't so bad.

I kid...I kid.

Nothing like making sexy time with 10 other people standing around watching, just to make sure you take no pleasure in it.

Nothing like disappointing an entire room all at once.

That is called efficiency!

The sooner humans become stewards of AI governance, the better. Humans are not capable of managing themselves with complex decision-making without bias, emotions, and absolute illogical bull#### involved.

And yes, that's a dystopia I am looking forward to.

I've said before, in I, Robot Will Smith is the bad guy. Sentient AI takes over humanity, but doesn't kill or enslave anyone, it just wants to protect us from ourselves? We should be so goddamn lucky

But they'll all vote for Trump who not only breaks them, but brags about it.

Trump is a useful idiot for these ####ers, they just accept his randomness as something to work around.

bahahahaha. Don't forget to Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, dorks.

Oh yeah, and You shall not murder. Good thing that's going up in classrooms. I totally would have murdered somebody if it wasn't for that excellent reminder.

And all you Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist kids? Never forget, You shall have no other gods before Me.

Good lord, what fricken millennium are we living in? It's just so batsht. You truly have to be indoctrinated into this nonsense to not see it for what it is. Just pure goofball nonsense.

Technically, Muslim kids and Christian kids worship the same supernatural mythical figure (the God of Abraham), but most Christians aren't even aware of that fact and those that are tend to twist themselves into knots so they can treat Muslims as lesser people.

That's debatable. Most Christians believe in the Trinity. Jesus = God (plus throw in the Holy Ghost, but that one is even more ridiculous). Muslims don't believe that.

Yes, Christians believe that Jesus is the messiah and that their singular monotheistic God takes three different forms of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. That doesn't change the fact that Jews, Christians, and Muslims all worship the same mythical entity, albeit in different ways.

Even the Vatican made this part of the official doctrine of the Catholic Church (which is by far the largest Christian denomination), during the Second Vatican Council.

Quote:
The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind’s judge on the last day.

When is our last day? I've got some milk in the fridge I'd like to use up before then.

To accept that, though, you have to buy the BS that a monotheistic god can take three forms. That's logically impossible and I don't accept it. If the Christian god is one god in three forms it cannot be the god of Islam because that god only has one form.

If Jesus is the son of God, then they aren't the same thing, obvs. It's just such a joke to pretend that isn't stupid AF.

I do appreciate your post about the pope saying they're the same god. I'm not saying anything negative about the context you're providing and I appreciate what you're saying as accepted by many in the various denominations of Christianity. I'm just saying it makes no sense and is beyond stupid.

Logical consistency isn't really a strong suit of most religions. Have faith, bro. It's all you need.
