    Why not Hell? Do you know how serious it is to contribute to the maldistribution of wealth?

    Pontius Pilate: a negative historical figure

    Pontius Pilate was the emblem of the Roman oppression in the province of Judea, existing since AD 6. He moved his court to Caesarea and disdained the affairs in Jerusalem. Or rather, like many corrupt and greedy governors of provinces (I can mention Verres, made immortal by Cicero's work), he...

    Populist Xenophobia moves The Netherlands to the Right

    According to the leftist ideology, we can move 1 billion Africans to Europe. Because there is an unlimited right to migrate. And us Europeans, we can move to Antarctica...to freeze to death. :) But it's okay, that's what they want. That we die out.

    Nudity

    I went to Florence with my female friends. We were so disappointed...looking at the magnificent statue made by Michelangelo. I still recall the comments... - But it's microscopic! - But what is that? A doll? - It's a scam! ;):laughing:

    Populist Xenophobia moves The Netherlands to the Right

    It's a fact that a Dane moving to Norway will feel more comfortable and welcomed by the Norwegian society. Whereas very distant cultures coexisting forcefully creates discomfort, misunderstanding, distrust.

    Populist Xenophobia moves The Netherlands to the Right

    Especially gender equality, spouses' juridical equality, LGBT protection, freedom of speech and many other pillars. :)

    I have a feeling that the afterlife doesn't exist

    Exactly. Some people's big volition crushes other people's needs and wants. Balance is reached when we all wonder "do I really need to do that?". Speaking of afterlife...maybe we believers are dreamers or visionaries. But the afterlife we believe in, there is no imperfection. People's wants and...

    I have a feeling that the afterlife doesn't exist

    I understand. It's an act of love. But I was not criticizing their choice. I was just wondering how they view the creation of new lives, which are not eternal.

    Barrators

    In Dante's Divine Comedy, barrators are those people who are invested with a public office, so they administer taxpayers' money on the community's behalf, or on the nation's behalf. But misuse it in a very sinful way. And so God punishes their misdeeds, because in Dante's world, Civitas Dei (the...

    I have a feeling that the afterlife doesn't exist

    It's impossible because it's scientifically proven that the human eye can only see the 3% of the total matter. Even with the most sophisticated instruments. ;)

    I have a feeling that the afterlife doesn't exist

    Making more human beings? How about that? :) I fail to empathize with those who don't believe in an afterlife. Because all my life revolves, as a Christian, around the afterlife. I think of it 24/7. I am not exaggerating. So I struggle to understand what the world looks like and sounds like...

    I have a feeling that the afterlife doesn't exist

    Honestly, Christians tend to be more nihilists than most atheists, I guess. That's just my impression. :) What I meant is that if I were an atheist, I would focus on the meaning of the existence. I am a Christian, so I have already given it a meaning (which can be wrong, I mean, I cannot prove...

    I have a feeling that the afterlife doesn't exist

    Interesting. Still I don't understand why the people who don't believe in an afterlife, make children. What is the point of creating a ephemeral, finite existence?

    Ukraine has become a dictatorship, it's official

    You know...us Italians too, we lost territories after WW2. But we moved on and held elections. That seems to me an excuse to install a dictatorship. And that's horrible.

    Populist Xenophobia moves The Netherlands to the Right

    A lounge-loving and yacht-loving carefree Left-wing will be crushed next June...during the EU elections.

    Ukraine has become a dictatorship, it's official

    Russia just wanted those four regions, so they have won, basically. I don't think so, because in Europe a political shift is taking place. The pro-Russian forces are on the rise. I don't think so. Ukrainians will rise up, Ukraine will join the EU, and peace with Russia will be made. In Europe...

    Ukraine has become a dictatorship, it's official

    You haven't understood the point, evidently. 1) Ukraine has already lost those four regions 2) In those four regions and in Crimea, people already voted for the Russian president last week. This means they are not Ukraine any more. In Occupied Ukraine, Casting a Vote (for Putin) as Armed...

    Ukraine has become a dictatorship, it's official

    Maybe you should understand that only the four regions of Donbas are the areas where the war is fought. And those four regions already voted for staying in the Russian Federation. In the remaining 90% of Ukraine there's no war. So they can vote, there.
