    The English Wikipedia generally provides links to citations to back up its claims. Chat-GPT generally does not and when it does upon request, it is often made-up citations.

    Who cares what they actually spiritually believe in that regard - and I agree that Trump is no more Christian than I am. What matters is, however, that events are proceeding towards that end, where church and religion are increasingly more intertwined with society, contrary to the principle of...

    Yes, and this needs to be viewed in the lens of the movement of Christianity that Charlie Kirk aligned with since 2020 (and that Trump has courted) explicitly calls for Christians to take control over the 7 major spheres in society. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Mountain_Mandate

    So, in the aftermath of his assassination, the Trump administration and the MAGA cult base are cracking down on free speech and 1st amendment rights, completely at odds with 20+ years of public stances. One example: Courts have ruled that a baker can refuse service to a gay wedding over...

    And what would that lead to? Completely different policy?

    Austerity policy is a surefire way to lose support to Farage. Starmer is essentially running government like a classic Tory. The current economical and political system isn't working for far too many ordinary people and that rightfully pisses people off. It's the same song and dance in many...

    They are also part of the eco-system and ride the social media to win positions.

    I think you are right on the money here. And yes, pretty much nothing has been as damaging to democracy and children's development as social media.

    I’d recommend New Religion, Unbreakable and Delivering the Black. There is some Nice variety between those albums and some of their best songs. And you are pointing to my main gripe - they are overall as experimental as AC/DC.

    I'm not. I'm comparing them with their countless better albums between Seven Seals and Code Red. Honestly, the only album I like less would be 16.6 and I probably need to give it another chance since it is sandwiched inbetween two of PFs best records.

    No, he isn't justifying the murder of Charlie Kirk. He should not have been murdered and the guy who did it will face justice. But trying to brand him with sainthood just is not right and especially not when multiple right-wing figures and lawmakers have been using this murder to call for...

    I think it's A, God's Proper Law is like a proper noun though. And B, derives from God being perfect and thus any of God's laws are divinely perfect. (that being said, religious cherry-picking is ever omnipresent and people tend to argue their own personal beliefs through proof from scripture...

    Yeah from the pro shot festival gig? Yeah, the whole gig was pretty rough (they posted the entire gig the day of the broadcast, then reposted Eyes of a Stranger recently). Seemed like he had a cold because there was a ton of register cracks when going between head and falsetto. Let's just say...

    I have tried listening to the new album twice now, but I turn it off because it bores me. It's like I have heard a way more exciting version of the album before. It's not bad. Definitely not. But their current formula is a bit worn out now.
