There's an amazing book. Combatting Cult Mind Control, but even intelligent people fall for this bullshit because it's all emotional manipulation.

As a homeschool survivor I wholeheartedly agree. I'm middle aged now and I still struggle with basic social skills.

The goal of a metalens would be to, eventually, wholly eliminate the smartphone camera bump.

They'll do anything to avoid giving us a slightly thicker battery...

Can confirm. Was Christian homeschooled. Learned nothing useful outside of the Bible and a weirdly curated list of other topics. Physics, but not biology. And exclusively America/Christian centric history.

 
 

What was the first lie in the Bible?

Genesis 2:17 - But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.

Well they ate it, what happened?

Genesis 3:23 - With that Jehovah God expelled him from the garden of Eʹden to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken.

Jehovah lied. They did not die in that very day. Jehovah knew they would live so he kicked them out of the garden where they lived for centuries.

Now look at what Satan said to Eve:

Genesis 3:5 - For God knows that in the very day you eat from it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and bad.

Satan told the truth. Once you learn to ignore arbitrary authority you can learn what's good and bad for yourself.

I have ADHD, Adderall has changed my life. Treating your mental health with medication and therapy is critical.

Absolutely. I've been working really hard to improve my health both mentally and physically. I'm down 75 lbs. I'm trying to be the best version of myself.

I was just trying to make a joke. I promise I'm not actually an incel.

Tell me you have never studied history without telling me.

Global trade has existed forever my dude...

 

I hate cooking. And what is more, I hate cleaning up after cooking. Pizza was my go to. I would buy pre made dough and whatever toppings suited my fancy, it was cheap and delicious and only needed one pan. But it made me gain weight.

So I'm looking for a healthier alternative. Something I can cheaply and easily make, that tastes good, and only uses one dish.
