Isn’t the opposite true

I’m so sorry. That sounds horrific.

In terms of Christianity, it doesn’t even say that’s okay. It’s just someone using it to justify their actions instead of critically examining the text, and wanting to be tribal.

This rendition of And Can it Be gets me as well… Even though it is a guy singing, and everyone kind of joining in, with the steady rhythm. There’s something appealing about it.

The Church’s One Foundation also works like this

Lol wut

Lol. Typical. Leaving out the next verse conveniently.

Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,

Basically demanding that Husbands show the same love to wives as Christ did for the Church… Y’know, the Guy who said “I came not be served but to serve”, washed His disciples, ended up being crucified… But demanding a man love his wife that much may make him uneasy, and that’s not good for us men, is it? /s

I saw a sermon a while ago, and the pastor said that taking a bullet is easier than the day-to-day “dying” to yourself that you’ll have to do for your wife. Such as sacrificing things that you enjoy doing for her sake. But people don’t seem to understand that dynamic.

Did he read the part about the husband or just the wife

What was the alleged Chinese tradition?

Literally the poverty line

Interesting how Minecraft is the best selling game ever, yet it has basically no DRM. Apart from the actual download, buying an account gives you access to the official authentication servers, and that’s it, basically.

I heard apparently that is just their sense of humour. Not sure, though

Depends. A married couple travelling to Japan is less concerning than a loli obsessed single man

IIRC it is calculated by the ward’s operating cost for your time in hospital, then divided by the number of patients. So if it costs £3000 to operate a ward for two days and there were ten patients there, then it’s £300.

A lot of places don’t give free healthcare to non residents. Such as the UK. But it can still work out cheaper. I heard a story of an American couple who were over with no health insurance and ended up having to stay a few days in hospital. They were super panicky and were discussing remortgaging their house. Until they were given the £200~ bill.

Yes

I advocate the opposite. Because people then see “lemmy.world” and immediately associate it with the rumours about the devs being tankies even though .world and the lemmy devs are unrelated

Onboarding. I think it’ll be better if people promoted individual instances instead of Lemmy as a whole. As a whole, it seems vague.

Nice try, Zuckerberg

Meanwhile Amazon gets away with it???
