TopicRon DeSantis Now Turns On the Same Book Banners He Relied On For Support

There is that famous scene toward the end of the DragonBallZ Frieza saga where a defeated and mangled Freiza is about to be left behind on the planet they purposely caused to explode... Frieza begs Goku for a small portion of his power so that they can survive and escape. Goku reluctantly shares some of his power with Frieza out of his own sense of pity, and Frieza almost immediately turns on him and uses the power to try and kill Goku.

Ron DeSantis and most republican elected officials are Frieza from that parable.

Yeah, all three are excellent. I own the physical of the 2 GC games and 3 on Wii as well as the full Remastered trilogy on Wii U... which was the best way to play them (optimized and HDMI out) until the remaster.

Probably that opening from UP.

I don't cry that much at media, not because I'm manly and stoic... I just don't cry much, I'm actually a very emotionally driven person... but god flippin' dammit... that opening scene from UP is a gut punch and so beautiful even though you have a pretty good idea of how it ends.

The Bible doesnt say anything about evolution.

No, because no one had any idea how biology worked back then, and it wasn't because these were dumb people, but because we have the benefit of thousands of more years of scientific inquiry and discovery.

So it's not that the Bible says anything about evolution, it's that the observations and scientific theories crafted around evolution do not fit the Bible narrative of the creation myth.

Damn_Underscore posted...
The people who are using that book interpreted the Bible a certain way and just rejected evolution because they couldnt or wouldnt make it fit with their beliefs.

That is religious fundamentalism in a nutshell.

Damn_Underscore posted...
That is the real problem. You dont have to be Christian OR believe evolution is a real thing. Thinking in dichotomies sucks so much and is the source of so many societal problems. Im glad you are educating your nieces

Eh.... no evolution is a real thing whether you believe in it or not. That's the real problem. You can believe whatever you like, but it won't make it so you aren't an ape descended from a lineage of mammals shared by other great apes and primates.

We have evidence of evolution now, it's not just speculation... we can even observe it to some degree with fruit flies.

It's just culturally approved misinformation and disinformation.

It's not that man descended from animals, it's that humans are one species of ape as part of an evolutionary branch.

Why are they still a thing


Churches are deeply tied to tribal/cultural/ethnic and especially community traditions.

People aren't just giving up their unjustified beliefs, they are possibly giving up a family and community. It's easier to not think about it and just continue to believe and stay part of the status quo for a lot of people.

This is always a dumb thing that media, especially film and TV put into people's heads...

Everyone is entitled to a solid legal defense. If not for those "scummy lawyers" we would see people getting railroaded into sentences because they seemed guilty or have public sentiment against them. It's not a perfect system and sometimes the guilty go free, but it's just as important that the innocent don't get put away while the guilty are still out there.
