[quote=JPJones][quote=carlsbadworker][quote=flu]I’m not very religious…
But for argument’s sake…
What’s the difference between ridiculing people of Christian faith over a blog, hurling insults at such religion, and religious people, spitting and pissing on what probably matters a lot to them…versus hurling a bunch of stereotypes and a vulgarities about a say an Latino or African American or Muslim?
Is this sort of ridicule here on this thread *that* much different than Donald Trump’s ridicule and disdain for Muslims, or have we all sunken to an all time low across the board?[/quote]
Just read about flat-earth society and its celebrities. You mean I cannot ridicule them because it equals to racism?[/quote]
Yup. You’re basically Hitler at that point. Sorry![/quote]
didn’t get the joke until I googled the phrase “flat earth celebrities”
yikes,… data point(s) indicating the sad state of affairs involving “celebrities” who lack scientific knowledge AND sadly are admired in large segments of the population,… NOT a good choice for role models IMHO or bode well for civilization given the various problems that need to be addressed
anyway given the OP,… here is my favorite comment from a YouTube video doing a high production value physics experiment I recalled watching on TV demonstrating the curvature of the earth,…
“God bless Flat earthers. put on this planet to make normal people feel a lot more intelligent”
seems belief in various conspiracy theories will only grow because people are looking for answers to various life’s problems (which are caused by corruption and mismanagement at the leadership level),… #SAD
