Ask Catholics I guess? They have been doing this for more than a millennia, shouldn’t be that surprising that they still do it.


Some cats, even cats that know and trust you react much better if you pet them with a hand they dont see approach. Sometimes I distract a cat with one hand and start stroking with another. I think laying on your back is a very vulnerable position for a cat, most cats I had did it but only one stayed in that position while I was approaching.


Why would I ignore the thing I wanted to talk about? Do you find it weird that you accused me of not engaging with you yet you seem to ignore what I say?


What does that have to do with whether tank being a weapon causes a word to be more oppressive or not?


I engaged with what you said, I said I dont think it’s right to base whether something is a slur based on the root meaning of the word. I think that’s incorrect and a little ridiculous.


Because I think you were wrong? In fact I find your original argument kind of ridiculous.


I said slurs can be based on colour and you’re saying that I pretend that communist were not persecuted, do you see why I’m confused?


Are you sure this was meant to be a reply to me?


The N-word is related to colour, I dont get it why that matters whether something is a slur or not.


Consider me asking for help then. I’ve read the wikipedia article on war crimes and it says nothing about the reasons you gave. I’ve wathced a YouTube video before about war crimes that made me think that this probably wasn’t one but watching a video obviously doesn’t make me an expert and I hope you believe me when I say that I honestly want to find out whether this was a war crime or not.


I don’t think these make this a war crime but I’m not an expert, can you show me an article describing or explaining it as such. Like I’m not interested in whether it was right or moral (it wasn’t) but as far as I can tell it wasn’t a war crime.


Why do you think it’s a war crime?


Can you disprove all mediums? What if someone has an experience with them that they can’t explain but felt powerful and they made a personal choice to believe that they did talk to a dead relative.


it is not irrational, to observe (or experience) something and not being able to explain it.
I agree, and that’s where I would stop, I can’t explain it, I don’t know what this is.
I think in general it matters what we believe to be true or not, you might think that in a certain situation believing a false thing can result the same (or better) way than not believing but beliefs are not restricted to certain situations and will inform our decisions elsewhere, maybe with more dire consequences. A quick example would be mediums who pray and scam grieving people out of time and money.


Isn’t it irrational to believe in things that cannot be proven or disproven?


I assumed from the letter that by issuing a new licence they mean they give you a new one for free but according to news articles they will not.
