The Bible says God spent six days creating the universe, but current scientific theories state that the universe is 13.7 billion years old while the Earth is 4.6 billion years old. Here’s how you can prove God’s existence.
  • First Theory - when the Bible said it took six days to make the universe, it didn’t specify how long one day is. It also didn’t specify if the days are any consistent. One day to God could be billions of years to humans, and another day to God could be six hours to humans. But this theory contradicts the order of how he made the universe.
  • Second Theory - God is from another dimension, which is beyond the dimension we all experience. He may have spent six days or 144 hours creating the universe from his time, but to us, that’s 13.7 billion years.
It’s also worth mentioning that the Bible or other holy books were written long before our scientific theories were developed. A work from the past stays the same over time, but not our knowledge on science and history. In fact, science outdated itself several times. However, the idea that the Earth is 6,000 years old is newer than the invention of the light bulb, and some scientific theories that disprove this are much older than that.
 
I remember when I got Sega Heroes, and then when they announced that the game was shutting down and they gave everyone OP characters. Rip Sega Heroes 😢.
 
It’s hard for me to back the Republicans these days since they’ve been spreading lies and conspiracies, passing extreme laws, and not caring for Ukraine since they think American pride is more important than helping Ukraine. However, I’m still going to defend the following:
  • Darren Wilson - cops are trained to shoot if the person in custody attempts fighting the officer. It also doesn’t matter who you are. If you get into a fight with a police officer, you will universally be known as a rebel. I had and will continue to defend George Floyd, but I still have difficulty doing the same for Michael Brown.
  • James Damore - throughout most of the time, I believe he was fired simply for denying gender discrimination, but even if his memo was insensitive, it shouldn’t be a one-strike you’re-out offense. There are worse things you could’ve done to get yourself fired. Now I don’t know if he already had previous acts of misconduct, but he didn’t engage in extreme behavior.
  • Jack Phillips - although I don’t believe attending or serving a same-sex wedding is compliance in sin, the guys that sued him were trying to set him up, not look for a bakery that would make him a wedding cake.
  • Nicholas Sandmann - I know he was a Trump supporter, but how would you feel if you got slandered by the press and others harassed you everyday?
  • The McCloskeys - the city government clearly engaged in injustice. Instead of doing something about the riots which were both violating COVID protocols and the law, they would rather punish people for defending their property when they’re being attacked.
  • Gordon Klein (the UCLA professor) - UCLA actually gave a reason to suspend him. It was because he acted neutral or indifferent to George Floyd’s death when assigning final exams. I would’ve fired him if he supported racial profiling and police brutality, but not if he was neutral or indifferent.
  • Nick Williams (the American Express employee) - American Express put him on a kangaroo court because of a false racist accusation and wouldn’t let him defend himself before they fired him. And when he did get a lawyer, they canceled his credit account completely.
  • Mark Houck - although the way right-winged news sources reported his arrest is against the law, they did have a point. There’s no need to wait a whole year to arrest someone if they committed a federal crime (which I don’t believe he did), and there’s no need to send SWAT forces to his home unless if he is truly dangerous.
Basically speaking, I would defend the moderates or politically neutral that’s been wrongfully punished. Back when I used to be more right-winged, I used to aggressively defend these guys. Now not anymore. But I’m still defending these guys.

I've been misunderstood so many times, and I was once told that nobody wanted to hear about my problems. Which is one of the reasons why I don't talk to people so often.

They’re actually not supposed to shoot people who are fleeing unless they have significant and reasonable grounds to believe the person is a serious physical danger to them(the officer)/others.

I was told that this was going to happen to me if I run away from the cops. So if I want to avoid an arrest, I must stay out of trouble. But thanks for telling me this.

Even so, it's against the law to run away from the cops, whether or not you're the perpetrator.

if you're actually trying to avoid political drama this time around maybe avoid telling everyone you think someone should get shot to death if they run from a cop

Thanks for telling me. I decided to go back and edit it out. I didn't mean to support shooting people who run away. I was just telling others that Darren Wilson was doing his job. And no, Michael Brown wasn't running way from his arrest. He grabbed for the officer's gun.

Speaking of Ferguson, I have a feeling that they'll be talking about it next August. They talked about Sandy Hook last December, the same year the Uvalde shooting happened.

Now if you ask why reporting Mark Houck's arrest was illegal, it's not reporting it that's against the law. It was the way they did it that I felt was illegal.

I don't know when I will stop talking politics. I'm trying, but that's just one of my random thoughts.

You don't have to go down a path where everyone else wants stationary avatars, be unique and go back. You didn't see me complain right?

If you have seen the show my avatar was based on, there were a few episodes where the protagonist wanted to be like others when the lesson was to be yourself.
