Try to remember that God and Jesus are not actual gods but figments of our imagination, and billions don't believe because of reason. If a person wants to accept that there was a supreme being, there is nothing in the cosmological argument to indicate that the being would have any of the properties of humans. The Prime Mover could fall under the Big Bang Theory, and then God doesn't in any way need to be moral. There are hundreds of questionable moralities and dogmas found in the Old and even New Testaments. Jesus’ condemning billions of moral people to eternal damnation for being skeptical of him is a horrible thing.

Skinheads descended from the Punk Movement, actually, and various unpleasant groups have adopted the look of a shaved head due to misguided ideas and misinformation.

[@sullisen]

No the original skinhead movement predates punk by about a decade, generally accepted to have sprung up in England in 1969 among British working class youth drawing inspiration from the mods subculture and strongly influenced by immigrant culture from the West Indies, as such skinheads were originally associated with ska, reggae and 2tone and wasn't seen as a political thing other than generally just being proud about being working class and dressing practical but looking stylish doing so. There was however a second wave in the years when punk came about leading to the oi! subgenre developing and with far right movements recruiting young angry skinheads from football firms, recognising they were looking for someone to blame for the lack of jobs etc and exploiting that to make them the footsoldiers to spread their racist bullshit. Within the skinhead subculture, nazi skinheads are commonly referred to as bone heads while traditional non politically aligned skinheads sometimes refer to themselves as original skinheads or Trojan skinheads named after a British record label focused primarily on ska and reggae. There are also RASH or Red and Anarchist Skinheads which came about as a counter movement when the far right association starter to become cemented in the eyes of the public. Original skinheads were mainly just about working their factory jobs and smoking weed and dancing the nights away to the music that their Jamaican friends had brought to Britain

This is almost correct. The original British skins were from the late 60's. The band Sham 69, their name literally stands for "Skin Heads At Margate, (19)69 lol. The original skins were heavily into Ska, the precursor to Reggae, which is why the two tone (skinhead) revival of the late 70's/early 80's was based so much on ska music, most notably Prince Buster who wrote and performed the original "Madness", which is what the band was named after.

10:55 There is no radiation, in the traditional sense associated with microwaves. Microwaves are electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves, at a higher frequency and shorter wavelength with higher energy photons. If you are going to be afraid of microwaves, you certainly should be scared shitless over visible light which is the same electromagnetic radiation at very much higher frequency, with much higher photon energies. Microwaves just happen to be at the correct frequency to cause water molecules to flip back and forth, absorbing energy and generating heat. I'm surprised that you, as a person claiming to be knowledgeable in a great many fields would even mention radiation in the same breath as microwaves.

Actually the skin head myth about racism came from the Geraldo show when he brought on bone heads( the bad ones) and aggressive African American leaders who of course clashed both groups against each other. Originally skins originated in England and listened to Jamaican rock steady and soul music ( England had rude boys ( the youth culture of the Jamaican immigrants and the skins who adopted that Jamaican youth culture and both would get together to dance to music at youth clubs. Unfortunately many don’t know the roots. Soccer hooligans in England adopted the skin attire and ruined the view of skins there. There’s a whole documentary on KZbin about it.

Rev 4: 51-52 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. BTW, I'm a Pre-Trib Believer.

An ignorant family friend attempted to warn her pregnant daughter to avoid *AT ALL COSTS* the shadow of a lunar eclipse, but only if pregnant! 😂😅😂😅

Cleopatra means woman with a famous father. She belonged to the Ptolemaic dynasty, a Greek family from Macedonia that ruled what became Upper Egypt from around 300 BC.

Here's another one: women in the u.s. could not vote until the 19th amendment was ratified in 1920. Actually 6 of the original 13 states allowed women to vote, but by 1807 they had all revoked that right. Around 1870, Wyoming became the first state since 1807 to grant women's suffrage. Ten other western states followed before 1920.

A knew most if these already but still enjoyable for the ignorant. (Which doesn't imply stupidity as most people believe but simply means you haven't learned something yet🤷🏼‍♂️)🤓😎✌🏼

Another popular myth is that ancient Rome capital of the Roman empire had a million plus inhabitants. A big ancient city, yes, but probably never got much passed 250,000 to 300,000. Historic demographers working on the actual ground covered, and Roman census records, have demonstrated this. Rome had to wait until the 1930s and cover 5 times the territory to reach the magic million mark.

The skinheads bit. I'm an ex scooter skin, my main skinhead band was the Redskins, a VERY anti fascist group, very left wing. I still crop my hair. I get really really sick of people presuming that skin equals white supremacist racist fascist etc. It's a sad old trope. Especially when the main music genre listened to by skins was ska, the forerunner to reggae. SOME skins are no better than they should be, but a heck of a lot are just regular, decent people who happen to like a particular way of looking and love ska. In Britain, where it comes from anyway. Perhaps in the US it's different, I don't know.

I live in the woods & lightning strikes trees around me all the time. The transformer down on the road gets hit fairly often, too! Back in the 70's, it hit next door. It hit 4 pine trees, the electricity met down in the roots & blasted back out the surface. Unfortunately there was a large shed the size of a two car garage, if not bigger, filled with flea market stuff. Including lawn mowers, guns, & ammunition! I noticed the fire by hearing the shots going off! They weren't home & firefighters got there just after the corner of the house caught, & stopped it from spreading. Neighbors were already removing appliances & furniture. The shed was a total loss. Lightning has struck around here all my life Why did I put my house here?!? It's a beautiful, private spot! Story goes, that a meteor fell MANY years ago (>100) about a mile away so there are metals in the ground. IDK.

The words rapture is not in the bible but the definition is 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 King James Version 51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

😂😂😂😂😂 You are going to "seperate myth from reality"? And then, "The Buybull says..." What is this video?

A couple of things that I heard, when I was a child, Sitting close to the T.V. will make you go blind and Playing with Yourself will also make you go blind.😂😂 I don't do either one.

The majority of Ancient Egyptian pharaohs were Egyptian, apart from Cleopatra's dynasty who were Greek and a much early Sudanese dynasty, which is probably the cause of most of wrong ideas about Cleopatra's ethnicity. It should be noted that the many of the Ancient Egyptians descendants still live in Egypt and will be Coptic Christians or Muslims. Many documents and work camp remains have been found in the vicinity of ancient tombs and pyramids in Egypt, which why we know so much about the builders of those structures.

I grew up drinking coffee and it didn't stunt my growth(I'm 6' 1') and my cheeks didn't turn black, another story someone told me so I wouldn't drink coffee. My birthday is May 5, 1961 the day that Alan Shepard went up into space. My older brother drove my mom and dad to the hospital and they listened to the news broadcast on the radio on the way there.

I used to work out 60 minutes on the life step. There was definitely a puddle of sweat in the tray. Weighing myself before and after the 60 minutes, I had consistently lost 10 lbs. Now I have no illusions that the 10lbs was permanent. It was surely most every ounce water weight that would return with hydration. That hour was more of an impact on strengthening my heart than weight loss. It worked out well as my cardiologist was so impressed that he said he wished he had my heart. While I weighed 375 at the time, I was down from 500lbs 75lbs, of which was water weight from a now banned diabetes medication. I'm now 250, thanks to ozempic. I was 317lbs when I started. Interesting the longer(months) I worked out the less. I would eventually sweat even though I would sweat easier, more consistently with less smell and faster evaporating sweat.

26. Salad is a healthy food choice: salad dressings have a LOT of calories, and lettuce has very very little nutritional value. You could make a somewhat healthy salad with little dressing and adding other stuff besides lettuce... But you COULD also make a healthy pizza and tacos.. that doesn't make them all healthy.

The very first words out of my mouth when lighning not striking the same place twice were "er.. lightning rods?" And the very best lightning strike ever.. That I was sadly not present to see, but my long departed mother witnessed, was back in the 1980's when on those summer days when people would stand outside pubs drinking. She was working in the shop across the road from our local pub, and standing at the large shop window having a cigarette. (relax.. it was the 1980's. cigarettes didn't harm you back then.) looking over at a group of male drinkers standing in the covered porch area outside the pub during heavy rain. When there was a lightning flash, and a huge lightning bolt crashed down and struck the middle of the road between the shop and the pub. Hitting a bollard. Apparently the bang was massive. My mum was a tough Glaswegian. So whilst a bit startled recovered composure quickly. But she looked across at the drinkers again to see dropped pint glasses scattered on the floor. And several of the blokes standing there shaking like leaves. lol

The whole point of lightning rods would be meaningless if lightning never struck a second time...or third...and fourth. The CN Tower in Toronto Canada is struck and average of 77 times every year.
