I have.

A renovated farmhouse in Sever de Vouga near Aveiro... for 6 weeks.

And a 1-bedroom apartment in Braga for 2 months.

They were both exactly what was portrayed on AirBnB. I don't know if it's the same in the US, though.

I could post the AirBnB links if you're interested in seeing what they looked like.

That, and my beard has white patches now. Not salt-and-pepper, but coin-sized patches of pure white hair.

America is like that, because about half of its growth happened right alongside cars, and even more so in Canada. That's why the classic North American "stroad" exists.

It's not too incredibly difficult to retrofit residential streets into making speeding physically impossible:

where is it legal to exceed the speed limit when overtaking? I dont mean the police dont mind, I mean what country does it say you can exceed the speed limit in the law. Since there will always be police that enforce the law

It's legal (ie: codified into law) in the states if Idaho, Wyoming, Minnesota, and Washington.

---

Additionally, if we want to reduce speeding in urban areas, stop making the roads so wide and straight.

Narrower roads force drivers to slow down because it takes more attention to keep from damaging your tires/rims on the curb. Curves and turns force a driver to pay attention or drive off the road.

Both actually work (see Europe and the Nederlands in particular).

Compare the road size difference:

Nederlands

One you can speed down... the other is really just impossible to do so.

It's not that people are free of sin. It's that a soul is free of sin when it enters this world.

It's explicitly a Christian doctrine that everyone's soul is born tainted.

As for Satan, read the book of Job.

If that were the case, they'd believe man is inherently good at birth. It's only by living and making choices that one can choose evil. (ie: no original sin)

And to top that, they'd believe that Satan is still a servant of the Lord. The tempter and the accuser, there to provide a choice to humanity. That without him, there cannot be any free will.

Finally, hell would not be a place of eternal torment to Evangelicals, either. It'd be a place to purify souls for the world to come. And that the maximum length any soul can be in there is 12 months.

---

But they don't believe any of that. If anything, Evangelists are more akin to the pagan cults of middle east during the time of biblical Israel.

A lot of Americans are in a position where they can't do anything about it without losing their home, especially if they have kids. Same reason why Americans tend to not go on strikes.

All as designed, of course.

Unless you actually do "do something", you'll end up a slave or an indentured servant. And the bare minimum is to vote for someone who is against such ideas, against a party expressing such ideas.

Then you could even go farther... and help choose the candidate who will be on the November ballot but voting in the primary.

Because their entire argument is emotional. Vengeance feels superficially good and is the cheapest virtue signal in the world to say you like when bad thing happen to bad man.

But they don't want to deal with the possibility that this final act of "justice" can never be 100% completely certain so long as we humans are capable of making mistakes and being mistaken.

People want simple answers and they want closure - so it's all emotional and they can retreat to labeling anyone that disagrees as "defending the worst people" or "soft on crime" - more emotional responses that don't address underlying problems.

Mustard is the royalty of condiments.

It's been around in some form or another since, at least, the Zhou dynasty in China (1000-200 BCE). Furthermore, it became recognizable as the mustard we know with the Romans. (mustum ardens or "must" and "ard")

And the kings of France and England were using it by the 11th and 12th century, respectively. At least, that we have records pointing to their use.

Also, we did find an earth size planet in Alpha Centauri, which I think is a light year away. But we haven't even been able to tell if the planet can hold life.
