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"

You ever see a telephone wire with a pair of shoes tied together hanging from it? Apparently, those are there to memorialize the victims of gang violence.

It's explained that Turing opted for hormone theory and probation Vs prison. Says so right in the link provided.

Be that as it may it didn't really need its own thread with a "Serious" tag. There was no discussion by the OP. Now it's here.

Off topic, have you heard from Mark ("Whateverist"), lately? It's been months since I've seen him post. And yes, I know that he doesn't post here.
Yeah he posted on FB a day ago.
He posts a lot of nice pictures on FB. Nearly every day.
