There’s also the people that have to chose between feeding their kids and missing work to go vote, etc, or who are disenfranchised of their voting rights simply by how onerous it is to vote.

And I’m saying “probably not”. If you step out into direct sunlight, you feel warmer because you’re absorbing heat from said sunlight.

You don’t generally feel warmer because you’re in a well lit room. (Though you do feel warmer if the colors in that room are warmer reds and oranges compared to cooler colors like blues and greens.)

If there’s enough light on you to feel warmer, it’s likely because the lights are warming you up (like stage lighting for news anchors.) rather than an illusion or placebo or whatever you want to call it.

Why we don’t go on about pigeon and seagull guano though? I have no idea.

Not an illusion, no. The sun does impart some warmth (or a lot of warmth in some cases), Even when it's bitter cold out, being in direct sunlight will be a bit warmer.

The grape juice was used because a lot of evangelicals are teetotalers and think even a shot of wine is gonna corrupt peeps.

Which, goes to the other reason Protestants frequently don’t: they don’t see a need to serve wine, while they don’t want to potentially cause an alcoholic to stumble. The chance might be small, but then it’s all symbolic anyway.

Also, grape juice is cheaper.

This is what happens when MSM doesn't cover actual news properly.

Look at the protests. instead of showing the overwhelmingly peaceful protests as such, they focused on the relative handfull of assholes, who are probably false-flags to discredit the movement against trump anyways.

Christianity is, by definition, a cult of human sacrifice.

Kinda puts the entire faith into perspective.

I'm curious which is more common a failing #3 or #2.

most christian charity or aid orgs are mostly about that captive audience.

I’ve been getting trolled most the year by a GHO- they’d set up above my window and hoot until I went outside to try and get a picture.

Eventually set up a webcam… jerk used it for a perch (and flew in and off from behind… all it saw were its talons…)

Whelp. It’s grainy. But I finally got ‘em.

(Very) Early Christmas Day. There was at least four others calling out, maybe 5-6, some were distant, so they were too bothered to hide from me.

Granted, I was going to slap it onto one of my parent’s shiny kitchen appliances and make jokes about it being a mistake to let them have WiFi…. But still…..
