Actually ... I think YoungAnakin received 5 jabs. So you might need to increase the prayers by at least 25% to give him a fighting chance. Plus he just got married a second time, so prolly need to increase the praying by another 666%.

Okay, okay ... YoungAnakin is basically doomed.

The dude below, being interviewed by BBC, was promoting vaccines two years ago or so. Then his father died post-jab pretty much in his arms, which prompted him to look into the cv19 jab research a bit more. Now he's doing his best to spread the message. Of course, the Herd is trying to demonize him, etc.

It's all fun and games, theoretical, until it happens to you or someone you care about.

Surprised he was able to get on BBC - another sign that the PTBs are moving on from cv19 - and he also talks about statins a bit. A bit watered-down, imo, but these days, I'll take it.

Notice how the interviewer tries to change the topic when Dr. Malhotra starts talking about the harmful effects of the cv19 jabs:

I will go one better and pray 777% more, don't like that other percentage you gave me, not sure why!

Was an interesting video, he slipped the covid vaccines in there nicely when he was supposed to be talking about statins!

Yo, you lost that bet about the S&P ending '21 higher vs. Oct. 1st close. You got crushed like little bug by the Ninjedi.

Pay up, bro ... :lol:

500+ word post on "the problems with relying on double-blind, placebo-controlled trials in decision-making, both in and out of the financial markets."

Leave JesusNinja alone with his God.
OK paying up
viewtopic.php?t=652

although I hardly got crushed like little bug. The S&P was BARELY higher on Dec 31st than it was on OCT 1st. I mean I admit I lost but don't make it sound like a rout.

OK I understand from that context, those who are entrenched in their positions trying to convince each other, probably a waste of time.

We do meet a lot of people who are open when we do outreach and most are either really grateful for approaching them or politely tell you directly or indirectly that they are not interested, we just accept this and move on, I think this is the answer, inviting people into a discussion but respecting their view to not engage if they so wish, and agreeing to disagree if they have strong alternative opinions. We have seen many respond positively and it has changed peoples lives for the better so even if we are wrong I think there is a place for outreach.

The book suggestion is an invitation for anyone who is interested, I take no offence if no one is interested just as any other book anyone else might care to suggest, one of which was the holographic universe which I chose to read for example.
I don't know how involved you are in the "outreach" but you seem to be at least on some level attempting to engage people to convince them of your beliefs.

You didn't address my point that the number of atheists who go about actively debunking Christianity PALES in comparison to the legions of Mormons, born agains etc. out there evangalizing. You would say that's because you actively are trying to save souls and that people like Dawkins have no reason to spend time convincing others as they don't believe in anything. His reason is the same as yours: to try to help people understand the world and be better based on his beliefs. I don't see Dawkins as particularly angry or strident. Perhaps you saw interactions I didn't.

I don't know of a single atheist radio station but even if there is one somewhere it can't compare to the 5 religious stations in any town in America . Not to mention mass being broadcast on TV and other similar religious shows. When Dawkins says teaching religion to a child below the age of reason (usually I think that's accepted as 13) is child abuse I think he makes a pretty legit argument. If you convinced a child there is an invisible monster under his bed who is watching and will punish him if he does anything wrong we'd say that's psychological abuse. Well that's what some "God fearing" (think about that phrase) people teach children my friend.

I'm very involved in outreach/evangelism yes.

My point is that we share the Christian faith because we believe it offers eternal life and salvation. That seems to me to be a worthy cause from our perspective, even if it turns out that we are wrong. I don't get evangelism from an atheists perspective, if you believe that there is no eternal meaning in life, that we basically die and that's it, then why would you waste your precious time in this one life trying to convince people of such a hopeless belief. Why not just get on with your life, and allow us deluded people (from your perspective) with our belief in God go our merry way, especially for those who get so much peace and hope from it. OK if it is an oppressive belief or damn right evil like sacrificing babies to gods.

You obviously don't see it but I do, that RD is angry at God. He isn't overtly aggressive but his tone, his listing all the pathological descriptions of God, and his suggestion to audiences that they should basically laugh at people with a belief in God, he's basically passive aggressive. He was abused as a child by a schoolmaster and I think it was a religious school, seen it before where the person turns their anger towards God instead of blaming the abuser directly.

The suggestion that it's child abuse is pathetic in my opinion, we teach children all kinds of things from a young age, how about evolution which is taught as fact but has never been proven and is basically indoctrination into a belief system since you have to make incredible leaps of faith to accept what is mathematically impossible. You might not agree on whether it's true or not but coming up with that position of the age of critical thinking where there is big double standards is clearly massively hypocritical. It's clearly another passive aggressive suggestion by RD to alleviate his suppressed anger.

Who would listen to an atheist radio station.....and now here's a new song for you, happy committing suicide cause your going to die and there's no hope, yeah!!! :mrgreen:

And no my faith is not based on needing a cruth, it's based on the fact I once was blind but now I see!

When you play against the Ninjedi, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.

You're only alive cuz JesusNinja and prolly a few others on this forum prayed for you, and the Lord had mercy on you.

Damn, five jabs ... I'd love to see your labwork, etc. :lol:

I'm meeting another VaxInjured tonight to see what I can do, if anything - her and her husband are both PhDs, published tons of papers on genetic research, etc., and I think their daughter is a pro-vax family physician.

The VaxInjured woman has had four jabs, a stay in the CCU (after 3rd jab), a myriad of neurological and muscular symptoms, seen a ton of different mainstream MD specialists, tons of MRIs and CTs, EMGs, coronary angiography, etc., etc., with no convincing, unifying diagnosis.

She almost underwent neck surgery.

I got her started on playing ping pong and back to dancing (she was a former high level flamenco dancer), as well as shilajit and rhodiola rosea.

She's doing much better ... neck surgery deferred (those surgeons always looking to cut - when you've got a hammer, everything you see is a nail). Prolly will recommend methylene blue tonight.

For the children:

Damn, with a little more makeup, some aerobics and toning, she would have a decent shot at Hollywood.

Certainly in the right circumstances could make a believer out of me ...

The more makeup thing is for Hollywood. For me, just the right amount, depends on the cis-non-transitioned female in question.

Tend to agree with humans being overrated. One of my mistakes was assuming individuals I assumed I knew well, would not be infected with wokeness or fakeness. Hence when I said what was actually true, I got into trouble for it. Hence going forward I am practising the art of silence is golden when asked for my opinion
