Muslims do not generally believe in cultural or moral relativism. Allah is the one true God, his moral teachings are objectively correct. Why offer them a way out that they themselves aren’t able to coherently accept?
Besides, cultural relativism is nonsense. If someone tells me it’s okay to molest children, their perspective is not “just as valid” as mine. They’re a monster.
Yes, this means a lot of people in the past, and today, are monsters. That’s extremely plausible.
Consoles are great if you want the same thing you can get on your computer but with worse graphics, shittier framerate, and a terrible device for input.
Do you ever look at conservative stuff for fun? I watch a video of Jordan Peterson or something linked to from lefty reddit and boom, algorithm ruined.
The problem is more why he changed his view: it affected him. There are people who change their views because they’re curious and empathetic and finally get the time to look into an issue and see how it affects other people. Those are the people that deserve praise for changing their views, even if they used to be conservative shitbags.
Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) on Tuesday criticized a recently-introduced GOP bill that would rename Washington Dulles International Airport after former President Trump....
If you look up what the Dulles brothers actually did, you’d know that naming it after a comparatively petty criminal like Trump would actually be an upgrade.
Wouldn’t plug in hybrids largely depend on use? If I only use gas with it twice a year, it’s got to be better than if I’m commuting long enough to need the gas motor five times a week, right?
They haven’t. The buyer only pay sales tax, and the seller pays no tax at all. Except maybe crazy situations where it’s a collectible antique that’s worth way more now than when you bought it.
The brutalizing effect is the opposite: by seeing this kind of violence, people are more likely to normalize it and engage in violence themselves. That’s the hypothesis, anyway.
Lol why can’t he just be like “as a straight dude, i don’t really want characters of my character’s sex coming into me.”? That’d be a perfectly fine justification for a mod. The equivalent would apply if somebody wanted it to be even gayer. Shouldn’t all this shit be preference anyway?
If you can afford it, the 5800x3d is a huge upgrade over both the 3600 and the 3900x. I had also thought that the lack of load during gaming meant I didn’t need to upgrade my 3900x, but it turns out you get a lot of lag in unoptimized games when the CPU runs out of L3 cache and has to talk to the RAM. And this is more common than a lot of us realized. I noticed 25 fps increases in Hell Let Loose just with that upgrade, for example.
