Hercule?

Exactly. The baddies are called ‘terrorists’. The term the media uses to describe good terrorists is ‘rebels’ and sometimes ‘freedom fighters’.

Doctrine is revealed slowly and incrementally like the unfolding of flower petals, but discipline can change as the need arises. Cremation was avoided originally because it was associated with disbelief in the resurrection.

That’s exactly it, and I’m surprised more people don’t see it that way. For such fiction, there will almost always be a bigger nerd that eclipses your own knowledge on any particular aspect of canon, and yet someone pays half-attention to a child’s curriculum or reads a Dawkins or Hitchens book and it’s treated as an insult to their intelligence to politely inform them of something they may have missed.

At least fanfic arguments tend to lean more civil, and are generally seen as an expression of zeal between peers who all enjoy the same thing, albeit with differing opinions on the details.

Limbo for unbaptized infants is a theological opinion that has fallen out of popularity in favour of other, more merciful theories.

Is it possible Paul is referring to the accidents, not the substance?

You can blame the Listerine ads for that.

I beg to differ. If it’s not a CoViD test, where would you urinate?

1 asprin […] 1 aleve …

That combination of two non-steroidal anti-inflammatories is probably knocking out more than you think.

Nice try, sentient escherichia coli.

I run my own email server using mailcow-dockerized. Ironically, the problem is not enough volume.

Ditto. We went from having five channels, one snowy on a bad day, plus a bonus 6th channel when the stars aligned, to two channels at best.

The broadcasters and regulators took a basic fact about digital signals “We can get a better quality signal with less transmission power” and saw it as a challenge to set up their digital transmitters with the most conservative estimate of minimum power required. I haven’t studied well enough for my amateur radio exam to know if I’m comparing apples to oranges, but I’m still shocked to see descriptions of transmitter power go from 100kW in one case to below 20kW.

Too bad Hindi isn’t listed. I’ve found many a “Hearing Impaired” subtitle stream listed as such.

I still don’t see where it says not to report crimes.

clergy must obey civil reporting requirements where they live, and that their obligation to report to the church in no way interferes with that.

I’d argue it doesn’t accurately show the relative value at a cursory glance. The chart shows the area under the curve having decreased over 90%, but when looking at the y-axis, you can see that initial assessment was misled.

In a speculative industry like finance, shouldn’t we try our best to make charts less… alarmist?

…hospitals sell your information, too.

I feel so sorry for those of you living in places with for-profit healthcare.

I once realized so many of my favourite businesses were cooperatives. I started thinking of what other co-ops I could start and grow. The excitement faded once I realized it would have to not be about the money.

I edited for clarity to explain that I’m referring to the subgenre pop punk, which one could easily argue is not punk.
