  • My favorite bit of Christian lore is the time that predestination became a widespread belief. People cursed god and the church and sinned 30x harder, recognizing that if they did it, they were always meant to. In the absence of choice, people found hedonism not just agreeable but compulsory. Then the church solved that issue by telling people that they could actually get into heaven by paying. People got so pissed off that a sect splintered off, and I think that how we got Protestants.

    Someone please tell me how many different events I erroneously mixed together.

  • Just checked on that one dude who was shot for harassing or, as he’d put it, “pranking” people irl. He continued doing it for years afterward, and every single comment on his videos was wishing death on him. “Should have aimed higher” felt particularly strong.

    I genuinely believe that you could be acquitted for shooting one of these douchebags to death. Society seems that fed up with them.
