The sun has more impact on climate than Elon's precious CO2 ever will.

You're starting in the right place. In fact, it's the only place you should be. Cryptos will literally rot your brains. None of them have anything on Genuine Bitcoin (BSV).
This guy escape an MK Ultra program or what? 😬
And get a few cents back! 😎
Of course you can:
Balance need vs. want
Let curiosity inspire innovation
Forgive and grow
Think for the sake of gaining wisdom
"Give and gifts will be given to you; a good measure, packed together, shaken down, and overflowing..." -Lk. 6:38
Faith is certainly part of the truth.
“The mystery of the kingdom of God has been granted to you. But to those outside everything comes in parables, so that ‘they may look and see but not perceive, and hear and listen but not understand...'”
-Mk. 4:11-12
In other words, to look and see but not perceive is a matter of a lack of faith. Or perhaps, what many have been saying, a lack of gratitude. When we are grateful, it is an act of returning love to the Creator who blesses us, which is also an act of faith.
Nothing wrong with a little healthy skepticism. The reason much the teaching of Christ has withstood the test of time is because it rings true in the hearts of those who hear it. He does not speak from some distant place, but from within.
Giving thanks is central to the life of the Christian. The celebration of the Mass is called Eucharist, which means Thanksgiving. Having an attitude of gratitude truly is the path to an abundance of God's grace and love.
The virtue of courage is the opposite of the vice of cowardice or fear. And while fear is one of the greatest motivators, it is also the most paralyzing. Being radically honest with oneself is to rise above that fear and acknowledge true self.
This reminds me of the sign of the cross. Why would such a horrible symbol become the sign of Christianity? Because they recognized it as a sign of their salvation, yes, but also because they, like Christ, were not afraid to stare death in the face.
The older I get, the more I'm convinced the greatest form of 'activism' is raising decent children.
Call me old skool--I used to do promotion with flyers and postcards! haha But, I remember when MySpace came around it changed things in a big way. Just don't let the evil platforms bring down your good vibes.
Do you know the darkest realisation I've had over the past year?
It's not about governmental overreach or the bastardisation of science.
It's the realisation that a significant % of my fellow citizens would turn on me if instructed to by an 'authority'.
@111 recently posted: "If a thought pattern or belief does not positively serve you, let it go." I might add that if a particular technology does not align with your values, let it be. Beginning to wonder when we all stop dealing with "necessary" evils.
Human beings by nature are embodied spirits. To seek religious instruction is to seek wisdom. It was religion that preserved the most ancient texts we still study today. Morals without religion is ethics. Both focus on building character through virtue.
Science by itself is simply data or information. What one does with that information is what makes it moral. So, yes, moral foundation is important.
And I'm reasonably convinced SARS2 is a bioweapon.
And therein lies the problem. The breakdown of the family and moral teaching has resulted in a society of highly educated idiots. Further, the study of ethics was a central component of liberal arts. It starts at home and is reinforced in the classroom.
The majority of cases presented to be heard did not even reach the discovery phase, therefore the mainstream has promoted the narrative of no evidence. Investigations are ongoing today, including the AZ recount. We'll see how things turn out.
Curious. How, then, does a child learn to make good decisions vs. bad ones? Surely a parent ought not to allow their child to "learn the hard way" all the time. At some point they would have to be taught right from wrong, no?
You really should try to not paint with broad strokes. There are successful people from all walks of life. What impoverished people don't need is a constant handout that keeps them from developing the skills or motivation to achieve their potential.
Actually, the problem is the language of race. This is an illusion. 100 years ago there were thriving communities in most major cities, all coexisting together in their own neighborhoods. Painting with broad race strokes destroyed those communities.
I suppose if one doesn't mind being brain washed by propaganda in the institutions and fed medicines that do nothing but treat symptoms rather than cure, sure...
Bruh. You're just trolling now. Next you'll be saying we should have the voting system run by the DMV.
This is true for those who are able to engage the free market, but for those who struggle with psychological or physical disabilities, there will be cause for charity, which someone good at building charities can freely choose to build.
The trouble with social policies is determining baselines at all. Before we can get there, local municipalities have to address the immediate needs of their people. The bottom line, there's really no blanket policy other than respect for human dignity.
Bingo. I would also advocate for a return to a family wage instead of rugged individualism (i.e. every man/woman for themselves). It's a dog-eat-dog, spouse-eat-spouse kind of world these days. That's not healthy. BSV = creative collaboration.
