Apparently a good opportunity to sell guns
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

^ There has been talk of isolating pedophiles from society after prison release due to the high incidence of recidivism.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Fake Hitler Is Going To Real Jail
Quote:A Jan. 6 rioter who claimed he didn’t know Congress conducted its business at the U.S. Capitol despite being a self-described history buff was found guilty on Friday of all five counts against him, NBC News reported. One such charge was a felony for obstructing an official proceeding.
Timothy Hale-Cusanelli admitted he entered the Capitol that day, as he had posted videos of himself in the building on social media. But, he argued in court, he was unaware that members of Congress were meeting then. “I didn’t know the Capitol building was the same as the congressional building,” he told a prosecutor.

The U.S. Forest Service disclosed that it caused both fires that converged into New Mexico's largest fire — which is still burning in the Santa Fe National Forest.
