Been programming since the 80s, ditto.

Computers aren’t cool anymore.

Ooohhh, it was just a JOKE when you said that shitty thing to a stranger for your own emotional needs. Sorry, I didn’t realize.

They should be allowed to state an opinion without being attacked. If you are so fragile you can’t tolerate the idea that there are people who aren’t into things you like, you aught to take THAT somewhere else.

Because your request was rhetorical and his is not, having a concrete answer that is actually fucking relevant and essential to the discussion.

You are so triggered.

Yes.

“Pedophilia” is a psychological term, not a legal one. Perhaps you are looking for “rape.”

Treating “pedophile” as a synonym for “child molester” is like treating “schizophrenic” as a synonym for “axe murder”. Using psychological conditions as slurs and everyday metaphors is harmful.

You could have just not said that.

You would apologize for using Reddit, as an exercise in attempting an apology. Just to see if you can even do that. Everyone knows Reddit is not your fault. That’s not the point.

Fascinating. Classism, in heaven. Work yourself to death so that you can enjoy a better neighbourhood of heaven than your neighbour.

Minimize it all you like, but no one ever started a bloody war over “Encounter at Hotpoint”. Yes, all human culture is alike in some ways. Very clever observation. I think you will find that most of the people engaged in this discussion are not even Christian. It’s still significant and meaningful, if not to us personally, to the world we exist in.

This is one of the more interesting, informative and respectful discussions I have seen in a few days. Why shit on it. The age of edgy Internet atheism has passed. It’s okay just to BE an atheist now. No one is coming for you. You can stop fighting.

Poor OP wants to talk about practical sheltered velocipedes and we won’t stop talking about the thumbnail photo.
