LIES!!

Europeans traveled the globe to spread the love of God and everyone they encountered they treated with the utmost respect because they realized these people, like themselves, are God’s creation, created in His image. That’s the beauty about Christians throughout the ages, you can safely trust upon their moral compass because they adhere to the laws of God and God only. If Europeans weren’t truly guided by God, and ever behaved in bad ways as is suggested here, you would expect to see examples of such unprovoked death and destruction across the globe all throughout the age of exploration and colonialism. But what we see, for the most part, is harmony and bliss, ever lasting peace and prosperity, like a mirror image of the Kingdom of Heaven brought to earth. And people across the globe converted because they were impressed by the moral superiority of the white man, saviors of humanity, chosen by God himself to guide us to His perfect light. And yes, of course, in some instances, when indiginous people would threaten this harmony, the good Christians needed to defend it, as warriors of God, and sometimes harsh measures needed to be taken. But to frame this genocide, ethnic cleansing, rape, torture, theft, etc. as immoral is shortsighted. They raped and tortured in self defense, or if not that, in His defence. Sometimes it may not be immediately obvious how these actions by Christians are part of Gods plan, but God and his true believers in His name, work in mysterious ways, and to question these ways, whether guided by hatred or logic, is to disrespect God, because it shows you have no faith. When you act out of faith in God, this requires no logic, no justification. The actions of the Christian man are it’s own justification. Submit and all will be well. But if you resist you deserve everything that’s coming to you, fire and brimstone, whether it’s in Hell or here on earth, you will burn, as the abomination you are.

Say it with me, ‘for the Grace of God, DEATH TO ALL NON-BELIEVERS!’

Nor should you, no one does. And you’re not alone with this question, seeing the upvotes. So it presumably helped others.

Refugees are a group of people that’s very heterogenous. They don’t have one common way of treating Denmark. Except for the ‘asking Denmark for asylum’ of course.

Denmark does treat refugees a certain way, if by Denmark we mean their government, and not Danes in general. The government has certain policies which define their treatment. Basically they’re trying to win the race to the bottom: ‘treating them worse than other countries do’, hoping refugees will go to other countries instead. It’s a shortsighted tactic because now we here in the Netherlands as well as in other countries, are joining the race to the bottom. Which means collectively we are losing our humanity, while still largely getting equal amounts of refugees at our borders. Unless of course you’re willing treat people so poorly, that even a warzone is more acceptable. But what in the world are we defending if we are willing to lose all human decency over it?

It also would still allow parodies and satire, so some of the standard doctrine of fair use would still apply.

If we were to rank people on the basis of how far they are on the path towards enlightenment, without a doubt Jeff Bezos would have all the world in front of him.

Aside from the pricking scandal, what a fantastic idea.

On “Fête de la Musique” people are urged to play music outside.

Here my country is stuck with Christian holidays that noone remembers the meaning of.

yes, but leading here doesn’t mean much, given how small the biggest party is in actual numbers. All it takes is for the reasonable parts of society to exclude these folks from coalitions. They’re not big enough that they can’t be ignored. It’s worked for many years, lets return to that.

I think you’re right in what you’re saying except for my intentions. To be honest, I never make news posts on here, this is my first one. I came across this fact in Dutch news and hadn’t seen it on here, so I decided to share it. I am first to admit that maybe I should’ve paid more attention to the correct wording of the title. What would you deem proper. Something like “Microsoft blocks email-access for ICC prosecutor in accordance with US sanctions over Netanyahu arrest warrant”?

care to elaborate?

You’re right. The word ‘just’ is out of place. Freedom often depends on people not complying.
