The European Union has an ideological focus on the death penalty, but I would like to ask them if they have a better solution.

Mr Branson is entitled to his opinions. These opinions may be widely held in the UK, but we don’t accept that Mr Branson or others in the West are entitled to impose their values on other societies. Nor do we believe that a country that prosecuted two wars in China in the 19th century to force the Chinese to accept opium imports has any moral right to lecture Asians on drugs.

Nothing we have seen in the UK or in the West persuades us that adopting a permissive attitude towards drugs and a tolerant position on drug trafficking will increase human happiness. Where drug addiction is concerned, things have steadily worsened in the UK, while things have steadily improved in Singapore.

Man they are absolutely cooking here. Both in calling out the white supremacist attitudes of the west and in being rational.

I think the home screen is just Niagra launcher

That’s because there is an objective morality and we know the differences between right and wrong naturally. But society can twist them, and it is now and has done many times before.

But let’s also not pretend that God’s rules are all great, either. If the guy who enacted a worldwide genocide and commands fathers to kill their sons is your moral compass

You are seriously taking these concepts out of context to the point of dishonesty. For the “commands fathers to kill their sons” I assume you mean the narrative about Abraham and Isaac. The whole point of that is in a world where people were being sacrificed to a god, the true God didn’t require human sacrifices from men. In fact, the whole story in of itself is a prophecy

Genesis 22:8, 11-14

Abraham said, “God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they went both of them together.

But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son.

Interesting that it was said that God will provide a lamb, but instead there was provided a ram?

So Abraham called the name of that place, “The Lord will provide” as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”

It shall be provided.

John 1:28-29

These things took place in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing. The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

As for the flood- That is just God purging evil from the world. He is well within His rights to do that.

Fair. Most of the pixel’s magic is in it’s software.

Looking at the site, it appears to have everything. Even qi wireless charging

What’s so bad about the camera? I’m no expert, it advertises a high megapixel but I know enough that megapixel doesn’t mean everything

It’s weird how it’s being advertised as a second phone - it looks like it has the same capabilities of any other android phone? Just a smaller screen and a physical keyboard

Rebellion to arbitrary authority and servitude to a God who tells us arbitrary rules like “love your neighbour” and “give to the poor” and “you shall not murder” “you shall not commit adultery” “you shall not steal”, etc…

Yeah bro that rebellion is nothing to be proud of

Punishing sin*

There’s no Aldi near me

Nice cushion

Yeah. That Peter Thiel guy is definitely evil

Denying the existence of satan is definitely something satan would do.

If you really knew satan and there’s any good in you at all, you’ll detest your comparison to him…

Read revelation 13… Something about a beast making an image and “breathing life” into it…

It doesn’t seem to really compromise on much apart from screenspace except maybe the camera? With a single yet high res sensor.

We don’t know what chip it has either, nor what the waterproofing is like.

I always have used the Ian knot

This is a smartphone. Basically just an android device with a keyboard

I remember it being cold, gloves on, phone in the bag, I forgot to navigate with maps via public transport. No bother, earphones are in, I can summon Google assistant or so I thought I tried asking for navigation and instead Gemini showed up and started trying to give me directions that it was hallucinating on the spot

I thought it autopredicted? At least that’s what the Chinese one does
