lugal,

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad…

Why do christian apologists say the name of the person they're talking to so often?

I’m sure there are other groups that do it too, but I’ve noticed it most often from christian apologists, probably in part case I like listening to debates/discussions with them from atheist youtubers, but I’ve also noticed it talking to christians myself....

Isa 43:1:

But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.

I don’t think that’s the reason, just an association I had

I sometimes tried to summon that bot but it didn’t come when you did it intentionally

lugal,

I guess 1. it might only cover a fraction of comments so if you do it unintentionally and it doesn’t work you don’t notice so that’s a big bias 2. I didn’t try very often so it isn’t statistically significant 3. when I tried it often was in direct or indirect response to the bot so there might be a filter on the bot’s side.

And I sound like I tried more than once, I’m not even sure but surely at least once and at the very most thrice

lugal,

Is it really Thursday? Where is the dog when we need them most?

lugal,

You forgot the one where the window is fixated just in one lower corner and it looks so vulnerable and creepy at the same time

lugal,

Traitor!

lugal,

I barely get any jokes on this community. I guess I’m missing context or something

lugal,

Thanks for clarification!

lugal,

As if celebrating birth on the 30th December wasn’t difficult enough…

lugal,

This is true in all Chinese languages when spoken normally but Mandarin (unlike Cantonese) ignores tone in singing. Pretty sure the name is Mandarin

lugal,

And since the post was about singing, your whole argument is flawed. Checkmate atheist

anicent chinese wisdom is sometimes flawed (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Description: Three panels. The first panel is a picture of a sign on a window with Chinese that tells people to not to throw things out the window. There is a poor English translation on the sign that says “Do not shit in the air like a god.” The second panel is D.W. from Arthur glaring at the sign. The third panel is D.W....

lugal,

Is that just a terrible translation or a metaphor non Chinese people don’t get or something in between?

lugal,

Leads me to my next question: do you have any clue how the wrong translation came into existence?

lugal,

Well, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few

lugal,

No, there is a limit to multi tasking

lugal,

I once had 2 interviews for jobs with different skill sets and the same HR person was there. It felt weird to be passionate about both

lugal,

I heard a newspaper opinion piece in the radio here in German that clearly didn’t know the difference between genocide and holocaust. I mean, c’mon, read a book before you publish a newspaper!

lugal,

Reddit is beyond help, OP is police officer

If she was lesbian, she would have married a woman instead of staying unmarried. Checkmate atheist

lugal,

No, but white people didn’t identify as Americans before that. Neither did they think of themselves as white but as Brits or what ever.

The concept of whiteness only makes sense when it’s in contrast to other, non-white groups. “We are Brits and the Germans aren’t” morphed into “We and the Germans are white and the natives and slaves aren’t”. Hope that makes sense.
