Again, just describing my understanding of reality, sorry it triggered you.

“It serves a need”

I clearly don’t believe that religion is a “need”

Now I don’t trust your definition of “need” or of “clearly”. What other words do you define in diametric opposition to their intended meaning?

People need oxygen, breathing serves that need. People need various organic compounds for energy, eating serves that need. People want to not be afraid of the void, religion serves that want. No one needs religion and it doesn’t “serve” a need, just a desire…🤷‍♂️ I’m sorry me simply restating my point triggers you so badly, just keep in mind that you’re not going to get anywhere screaming that religion serves needs.

I’m guessing you meant studying, but studding sharks sounds like a very interesting and difficult job.

Nobody said it was.

Well that’s just not true, but ignoring that…

I didn’t scream anything, neither did the OP that started this. They stated it calmly and plainly. Obviously religion serves a function in society, but so does slavery. I’m not trying to convince anyone to give up their long-held beliefs, I’m simply defending my interpretation of reality as objectively as I can. Just like coffee, alcohol, and black market sex rings, no one needs religion. The only reason I could think of that you would want to argue against that position is if you believed it wasn’t true. But it is. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

But other things can and do too, so religion isn’t necessary. That’s the point.

I didn’t call anyone an idiot, I just made the point that something being popular in society doesn’t even make it good for society, much less necessary. Just look at fentanyl, or network primetime television.

I don’t drink coffee and I don’t have a computer, so I guess it’s accurate!

Painting baby toys with lead was pretty popular for awhile, so was filling your house with asbestos. Don’t confuse popularity with necessity, you might get cancer.

What would you have called it?

I believe that’s from The Mighty Boosh!

Ooh, cold steam burns are the worst!

If that’s how DNA worked, I imagine it just wouldn’t pair, but that’s not how DNA works. However there can be and are many mistakes in the transcription and translation of genes, they’re called mutations and they’re the mechanical cause of cancer. The kind of spontaneous mutation your imagining is unlikely to lead to cancer without other contributing factors, and the body has numerous control and correction mecahnisms, but there are billions of base pairs (i.e. A—T is one base pair) in each cell of the body getting transcribed and translated over and over and over, so quite a few mistakes get through.

Cremation

Don’t forget about Blue-Footed Boobies!

This meme doesn’t make sense to me, shouldn’t “my plans” be above the guy in the apron and the years be above the bearded guy? That’s presuming the intent was to say the plans were fucked up by the events of those years. In which case, the first panel is meaningless.

The dialogue was so bad, I don’t think anything would have really helped.

On the lobster?

Well, ideally Bernie would have won reelection in 2020 so he wouldn’t have been able to run this time.

If it’s not elephant garlic, it’s probably nasty inside. I’ve found that big produce is usually over-ripe/rotten.

Thanks for this, I was wondering about the 50 pence sticker, now I see someone changed it from cents.
