  • I never saw a strong international pressure to make Israel comply.

  • The goal should be the two states solution. It won't be possible if there isn't a strong international pressure on Israel. Again, Israel is a criminal state and should be treated as such. So is Russia, and nobody publishes memes on how Russia has no right to exist.

  • Denying the Jews the right to self-determination that all other peoples have is antisemitic.

    Israel is a criminal state that should be stopped. But we can do that, we should do that, without antisemitism.

  • If I understand the original idiom, the nearest French expression would be “you can't make a race horse from a donkey” (“tu ne peux pas faire un cheval de course d'un âne”).

  • Sick children mean bad nights, frequent interruptions and a lot of stress. It isn't healthy to add a normal work day on top of that, even from home.

  • It depends on how you define omnipotence.

  • God may exist or may not exist. And you can break all the rules of logics when you write fiction.

    It doesn't mean it's not interesting to apply the rules of logic to the idea of God. It's even an important part of philosophy.

  • Yes communication is possible, just not directly, hence the signs and the symbols.

    As for Jesus, even if he's God and a human at the same time, it doesn't mean that he would be able to speak divine truths directly. An infinite being as God cannot be rendered in a finite language.

  • I never encountered the first one, but I did not read everything 😅

  • I don't care much about blasphemy ^^. It's just logics. All-powerfulness doesn't make the impossible possible.

  • Exactly. A being so powerful would crush anyone he would directly communicate with. Try to play BG3 on a Game Boy Color.

  • That actually makes sense. A being so powerful is far too different from humanity to communicate clearly.

  • The guy sell cannabis for a living, he probably consumes quite a lot. He do him, of course, but that may explain it.

  • I finally caught up so I can read these messages, I'm happy :-).

    I watched all 7 episodes in a few days. So far, I liked this season very much, it's kind of sad to know it's the last season when they finally found their voice. Burnham is quite sufferable finally (even if they had to make her linked to the antagonists… at least it's indirectly) and the rest of the crew receive some light. Moll and L'ak are interesting and rich. I love to see more Breen. And reflections on spirituality touch me personally, it's refreshing to see Star Trek treating this subject more deeply than “religion is bad duh” (or with “akoocheemoya”s).

    Now I have work to catch up 😅.

  • I doubt it'd work with LibO Calc, but I'll try.

  • That makes me strangely uncomfortable.

  • Like a big filthy goblin?

  • I have troubles expriming qualified opinions in English, which is not my mother tongue, sorry.

    Of course secularism is not the problem, that was not what I intended to say, sorry again. But still, secularism has this secondary effect to weaken rational and open forms of religion while strengthening reactionary forms of religion.
