Serperoth posted:One thing that bugs me in the other picture LoB posted is how apparently the woman gets everything. Despite being a known adulterer, and men getting custody more often than not when they do try for it. Having been through a nasty divorce in the last few years I can assure you that the courts don't give a poo poo about who did what. Seriously. I had to have it explained to me a couple of times but then I "got it". The respondent didn't get that talk and kept bringing really personal poo poo into the courts. It became pretty clear that the judge was getting sick of it real early. Most states have an equation now for spousal support (alimony is kind of a thing of the past) based on marriage length and earning capability. So you could literally gently caress your wife's sister at her parents' funeral with everyone watching and the judge wouldn't take that into consideration. That poo poo only matters on TV. Can't speak for the custody thing though - luckily we didn't have any kids.

Parasol Prophet posted:This is going to expose me as the dumb sheeple that I am, but whenever something like this comes up I have to wonder what the drawbacks of getting the microchip are supposed to be. In most of the apocalypse interpretations there is also something along the lines of being forced to renounce Christianity/Jesus/suck the Anti-Christ's cock in order to receive the mark/microchip/whatever. And then the Mark of the Beast is required to be able to buy anything/participate in society. So when the time comes for everyone to be micro-chipped your choices are 1) Happily accept the Mark of the Beast and renounce your religion (and go to hell), 2) Begrudgingly take the Mark and renounce your religion (and go to hell), 3) Refuse to accept the Mark and renounce your religion (and be thrown into jail or live as an outcast or be horribly tortured and then killed....then go to heaven). But it's all up to interpretation anyway. The Book of Revelations is all one big fever dream John, son of Zebedee, had while on vacation (exile) on Patmos.

It's all a thinly veiled metaphor for the Roman Empire, which had exiled him in the first place. It's basically John giving them the middle finger as he calls them a beast that destroys the earth. Years later, this gets warped into "Obama is the Antichrist!"

There's something called "Chad Thundercock" who is a guy who gets tons of chicks and brags about it or w/e. It's very weird. Then again, it's really fun to imagine all of these guys enamored with the Bachelorette(Chad was on that show) series. I think they'd find that the Bachelor confirms all of their stereotypes though

hyperhazard posted:It all comes from their crazy interpretation of the book of Revelation, and the belief that those who carry the Mark of the Beast won't be allowed into heaven. Seriously. With this "mark of the beast" thing, do these people think that if you get tricked into getting the mark, or have it put on them without their consent or understanding, that they still don't get to go to heaven? For example, they get to the pearly gates, having lived a virtuous and godly life, (hating queers and blacks and abortions and all that good stuff), but God will look at their earthly bodies and go "Nup, I don't care how good you are, or how well you followed my rules. You got a mark on you, gently caress off to hell!" Even the orthodox jewish belief of "you can't be buried in a Jewish Cemetary if you have a tattoo" has exceptions for those tattooed against their will.

It's basically John giving them the middle finger as he calls them a beast that destroys the earth. Yeah, the idea of Revelations as being prophecy of events leading up to the apocalypse is a fairly new (and almost exclusively American) idea. From a historical perspective it's fairly clear that John was writing about things happening in his time, but doing so in coded and metaphorical language. An example: The Bible posted:I looked, and there was a black horse! Its rider held a pair of scales in his hand, and I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a day’s pay, and three quarts of barley for a day’s pay, but do not damage the olive oil and the wine!” quote:Ancient sources indicate that staple foods sometimes became scarce in Asia Minor in the first century. Exporters catering to Rome had bought up agricultural lands and converted them to olive groves and vineyards. Even emperors in Rome understood that this change in land use in the provinces inflated the price of grains needed to feed the local population and their animals. Suetonius says that once, Or you have the idea that 'The Beast' is going to declare himself God, take over the temple at Jerusalem, and then destroy it. A historical approach would identify this 'beast' as the Roman emperor Titus, who did declare himself God and did destroy the temple at Jerusalem, but fundies have concluded that this means that the Antichrist is going to rebuild the temple, then take it over, and then destroy it, because they're stupid people who need to feel that their lives are part of a destined and prophecied series of events.
