The vow of celibacy is what people know, but they do take a vow of poverty too

as long as it doesn’t interfere with others

Hell, find someone who consents and go wild with company! it’s 2x the fun!

I have a better idea. Instead of worrying about the people who find it sad, spend your energy finding the like minded people who know it’s badass.

madness. How am I supposed to know if 36 = 36 or 36 = 8?

Not the one I was brought up in, and “most” is a stretch. I will grant you “some” but the majority believe it is the literal word of God

I was taught and fully believed that it was the literal and inerrant word of God, guided by his hand and infallible… so yes, finding errors in it was a disturbing. The authors or it’s age shouldn’t matter if they’re being guided by an all knowing and all powerful being. It wasn’t until much later that I found out how much of it is suspected forgery. Probably could have saved a couple years of agony there

Not op, but for me it was the fact that the supposedly ineffable word of God turned out to be pretty effible

It wasn’t the first step towards losing faith, or even the last, but it was pretty troubling to a young me

What? So first of, it really doesn’t. You don’t understand evolution if you think that’s what it is, but that’s beside the point.

You believe that a supernatural sky being made a mud man and a rib woman, who were tricked by a talking snake into eating magic no no fruit. Then 4 thousand years later, a zombie came and made everyone drink it’s blood and eat it’s body in order to get into the good magic sky place.

It’s real easy to dumb down peoples beliefs and make them sound stupid, especially if you misrepresent them.

The question was why do you believe in YOUR beliefs. It was not an invitation to be a superior asshole.

Lol, I’d still take it. All I can say is the people flying with me better keep close. Ditto the ones breathing under water

Manifest any superpower at will

Weird this was right below this in my timeline

Sounds like what he’s speaking

Paralives

because the original was a parade of normality?

Jesus, NSFW tags please

edit: oh…

Is that the guy with the obsession with Guiness World Records?

edit: yup

If you’re so repressed that you can’t handle your fictional character lying next to a fictional male character, then that’s honestly nobody’s problem but your own. Go to therapy.

Ha ha ha, ye this caused a lot of “problems” early on (read: trolled a lot of homophobes) so much so that they updated the UI for that section to include a picture of the doll. I thought they did it deliberately and thought it was hilarious
