I found this at my local Total Wine while browsing the shelves. Not much of a detailed review here but I thought it was really good! I was curious about the chili peppers but it’s hardly noticeable at all....
Hey, so I believe in a higher power but I’m not on board with any particular religion. Anyone else think it’s cool to just fly solo as a good human, no religion attached?
This is kind of where I’m at in life at 40. I grew up in the Christian church but as an adult, I see so much hate, intolerance, oppression and exploitation. I’m a lover of science to my core and I also believe in a higher power. I just choose to keep that mostly to myself in my day-to-day life.
One thing I often think about coming from a Christian upbringing is the idea that God knows everything that will ever happen to you, every choice you’ll make, when you’ll die, etc. To me, that signifies determinism and total lack of free will. That just doesn’t sit well with me.
When I was a kid, it'd have to be Memorial Day. All the extended family would convene at the old family cemetery to decorate the graves. That isn't the weird thing... the weird thing was we treated it as a family reunion and picnicked together among the head stones.
When I first met my wife's family, they had a tradition of playing cards (Canasta) anytime the family would gather. My wife however didn't know how to play. They taught me and it was actually really fun hanging out and bullshitting. Like guys playing poker. We still do it all the time after nearly 20 years of being married.

What are your thoughts on the concept of having faith in a Higher Power but choosing to distance oneself from established religious doctrines?

Saw this in a parking lot today. I feel bad for the bee but that’s pretty mildly interesting.
speaking of alternatives, what brand do people hate that actually has a decent alternative?
I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don’t like but has an alternative?
What is the weirdest thing that your family does together?
