Dancedreamer 08/14/19 5:56:48 PM #351:	Jakyl25 posted... Do Christians believe God created a world where we all raped each other before he had us write about his rules? That seems like an oversight on his part. Well many of them DO believe that God created one man and one woman, who then had 3 sons. So going by that, either Eve would've had to mate with her sons -- or they had unnamed daughters who mated with their brothers. Then years later God decides to do it again and kills everyone except Noah and his three sons and their wives. Then there's Lot's daughters who get him drunk and have sex with him. --- This isn't funny Dean, the voice says I'm almost out of minutes! ~Alexandra <cite>Dancedreamer posted [p:926070823] in Politics C...

kevwaffles 08/14/19 6:25:31 PM #353:	Yeah, setting aside how literal interpretations of the Bible are fucking stupid and how other events in human history must have occurred that the Bible didn't chronicle even if everything in the Bible did happen, under a strict literal interpretation incest sort of had to happen. Pretty sure God never said that it was a good thing to keep doing that, though. Adding rape into it is just as confounding as it is appalling, though.

kevwaffles 08/15/19 8:22:53 AM #365:	kevwaffles posted... The official report hasn't been released yet. While I have no reason to doubt it myself, it's funny how people who rail against anonymous sources will suddenly trust them implicitly the second it can fit their narrative. Saying he had "broken bones" by itself is meaningless. Hanging is supposed to break your neck if done properly. The relevant bone in question here is the Hyoid bone. https://heavy.com/news/2019/08/jeffrey-epstein-hyoid-bone-broken-neck/ Hyoid bone fractures are generally estimated to occur in about 20-25% of suicides by hanging (depending on the study) versus about 50% homicides by strangulation. Those 20-25% however are linked to incomplete hanging and age, specifically once you're over 40 due to "calcification of and immobilization of the joints." Epstein was 66. An indication to continue searching for signs of strangulation for sure. Hardly a slam dunk.

EEOC probably doesn't play ball with this. It's a 2-1 Republican majority (2 vacancies) but one of the Republicans is on the record of defending the EEOC's opinion, but DOJ is trying to get them to flip. Though there's some talk the EEOC General Counsel might be able to sign on to DOJ's position without the support of the committee. DOJ has until Friday to prepare its argument. What even is the argument, beyond we think businesses should be able to discriminate against trans people? If it's under the Civil Rights Act, the CRA gives a limited, enumerated, list of things you can't discriminate based on. Things not on the list include, for example, beauty, intelligence, work ethic, handedness. There is one item that is specifically excluded and that is membership in the Communist Party - the CRA says it is okay to discriminate against Communists. Transgender status is IIRC not on the list of specifically enumerated protected traits in the CRA. Being trans is a diagnosable medical condition. We should be protected under medical conditions. It shouldnt be about religion because its something that actually exists. <cite>PerfectChaosZ posted [p:926099664] in Politics C...

Suprak the Stud 08/15/19 4:08:58 PM #390:	https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/latest_polls/ Some really good and some not so good polls recently! I know it is still so far out but I can't stop checking this every day. Good: Sanders UP 6 in New Hampshire. I can't remember the last time I saw him up in a poll so even a single state poll is awesome. Particularly since it is so early in the primary cycle. Warren down only 3 in a general election poll (Biden 23, Warren 20, Sanders 16). Bad: Most other general polls have Biden up in the 15 point or so range. I'd need more polls like the Warren -3 one to be confident in any sort of trend Biden up 20 in SC. I have this worry that even if Bernie/Warren manage to pull out some states in the northeast or coasts that Biden just completely dominates the southern/Appalachian states and he still wins the nomination. Other: Gabbard now has two polls with her polling at 2 and Marriane Williamson somehow has one poll with her at two now too. Bullock also has two with him at 2 which sucks because I need him to drop out like today and run for that Montana senate seat. He is wildly popular there and absolutely wasting time in the presidential race. --- Moops? "I thought you were making up diseases?

Just scanning 538 super quick and only Iowa/NH he's got 3 polls in Iowa (2, 2, and 3%) and 1 in NH (4%). All different outfits too. I think that means he qualifies but not 100% sure. If not I assume he will because I have to think at least 3 of those count and there's still plenty of time, relatively speaking, for another poll to turn up. As for "why" he's making it rain with ads in the early states. Pretty sure he's outspending everyone else there significantly. i mean that doesn't quite answer why that works but apparently it does I would have expected donor count to be his stumbling block but IIRC he announced he somehow made that too. That's the real "whyyyyyy" tbqh. Update: Found a 538 article from Tuesday talking about the debate. Steyer did say he made 130k donors but the article says he's one poll short. So he's got about two weeks to pick up one more qualified poll. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:926121618] in Politics C...
