I find it bizarre that, as a kid, I was taught to fear witches and not the people who set witches on fire.

People have always had a gross misunderstanding of witches, or anything they deem unacceptable.

The Puritans in America never burned a single ‘witch’. Thirty were hanged and one was pressed to death.

Why God promises extremely long/or even endless torture and yet he doesn't show himself to prevent such fate. This gives Dark Souls vibes. No wonder people love idea of YOLO.

Just witnessed some knucklehead pull a 58 point turn.
How do they get permitted to drive?

You’ve seen them - people who don’t know how to get out of a parking space. They pull up two inches, turn the wheel, back up three inches, turn the wheel, pull up an inch and a half, turn the wheel, repeat ad nauseum.
