Christians can see the devil in everything except in Trump.
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"

Don't mind Kevin Sorbo, he's one of
those Christians. You know, the ones who never read their Bible.
Girls and women in the OT were property. In the NT, Paul reminded them to remember their place. To Kevin, this is the epitome of equality.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

And Boru, what is supposed to be on that image? I can't see it.

Girls and women were also property in medieval Europe (you know, when Christianity ruled). Indeed, many Christians today are trying to turn women into property again.

More specifically, their reproductive bits.

I don't see many of Boru or FMs pics.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Boru is linking to url's that point directly to the content on servers that do not maintain the connection between link and content over time. It likely displays properly for a short time, making the problem invisible to Boru, but content on basically anonymous servers (typically long aliases for cloud storage) should be copied to a stable image serving host that will preserve the link between content and URL first.
