  • I agree that religious beliefa are generally on the decline, but that's not objectively a good or bad thing.

    The word virtue unfortunately has too many meanings in this context:

    Virtue meaning

    However virtue, if defined as moral excellence, simply does not exist in a fully objective sense. The best definition I can try to personally approximate is to "choose your own actions in such a way as to minimize negative and maximize positive effects on the people they affect". If I use that definition to reason about the virtuousness of being sexually liberal, I cannot see it as anything other than a virtue, other than hurting others by e.g. being promiscuos within a relationship.

    On a more general note, monogamy was not always the norm. Historically a lot of cultures have thrived under polygamy or similar systems. The most well-known one (assuming you're from North America) are the Mormons, which accept and encourage polygyny.

  • Just for the sake of an open response to this, in the case you're not actually trolling. Do you really believe this woman does care about the contents of the bible? Or can you see the imo more logical point that she cares about certain political movements not agreeing to the seperation of church and state, leading to actual policy based on a religious book you don't believe in or agree with?

    In that case, where is the need to actually believe in the bible or it's teachings just to put in the effort of making a sign and protesting? At that point you're protesting the consequences of a select group of people pushing their religious dogmas on everyone under the veil of politics. Which unfortunately still seems to happen in current times imo.

  • Woningtekort loopt ondanks nieuwbouw verder op: nu 400.000 huizen te weinig
  • Zo lang als het huidige landbouwbeleid blijft bestaan, op zowel Nederlands als EU niveau gaat hier realistisch gezien niets aan veranderen. Dat gaat helaas flink gevolgen hebben imo.

    Ik zie nu al dat de jongere generatie op mijn werk niet aan huizen kan komen en dan toch vaak kiest om ergens anders te gaan werken en in een aantal gevallen emigreert. Uiteindelijk blijft de keuze: een toekomst voor de agrigiganten of een toekomst voor iedereen.

  • Beoogd minister Klever (PVV) noemt omvolking 'feitelijke omschrijving demografische ontwikkeling'
  • Dit is helaas een direct effect van je partij vullen met "voorlezers". Ze zijn makkelijk aan te sturen om in de kamer te doen en zeggen wat Geert wilt, maar dat maakt ze niet ineens goede mensen die zich respectabel gedragen.

    Een gebrek aan intellect en toegang tot Twitter lijkt overigens op meer plekken een slechte combinatie.

  • Why the 270 Degree “Crossplane Twin” is Suddenly So Popular | FortNine [9:39]
  • Really interesting story, as usual for FortNine. I wonder what the real life impact of the difference between 270° and 285° actually is. Theoretically it affects performance and vibration, but is there actually a really notable difference on the road, especially for the big liter bikes?

    After all, there's not many scenarios where you're actually pulling more than 80% of engine power on the road.

    Cool video anyways, thanks for posting it!
