"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men." - Colossians 3:23

I am a Bitcoiner, but there is a more important message to spread: the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

A law like this will kill the open source world very quickly. It is one thing to work for free, it is another thing if that free work can get you in trouble.

I would absolutely love that gift

The necessary consequence of freedom (in the sense of permissiveness) is that both good and bad behaviour will be treated equally. This is why God instituted a government (as per Romans 13) to persecute unjust actions.
Nostr on the other hand is ungoverned and permissive by design. It has been designed that way because those who were in control of of the centralised systems were unjust themselves. The tradeoff is that we have to deal with unjust content, as there is now no one moderating content by any standard of justness. There is no government on Nostr.
We Christians need to learn how to navigate and Nostr for the growth of our sanctification, and the spread of the gospel. If you are Postmillenial, you know that Nostr will become a better place as the gospel spreads...
What you did right now, is exactly what we need to keep doing. Preach the standard my brother.

Here is an excellent Christian take on the whole climate debacle. Worth a read!

Thanks for sharing.
I did a talk at my church's men's group last week, where I discussed science along a similar vein. I went a little further by demonstrating that science has become a god, especially when people start using terms like "the science says." In that way they are ascribing one of God's attributes to science, which is a human creation. Christians must acknowledge God as the omniscient arbiter of truth, we should never let science fulfill that role.
My talk started a heated debate. Especially among the older men at church, many of who formed their opinions back before all this woke nonsense started. It was good to get these guys to rethink these issues.
Anyway, I was asked to also convert the talk into an article, which can be published in the church magazine, which will have an even wider reach. That's really cool. I will link the article you shared in the one I end up sending to the editor, it is excellent further reading. Along with this: https://creation.com/climate-change

I think hookup culture is an artificial replacement for the real thing. Where the real thing is a happy monogamous marriage with deep emotional connection, regular sex, and lots of kids.

In my opinion, this is the best Christian metal track to ever be recorded:

I have two under four. Raising kids in a single-breadwinner family so mom can be there for the kids.
Would love to chat about the Christian faith/theology any time.

If that is what humans do, where did the old thoughts come from?

Yeah, I wanted to send a test zap from Amethyst, so I chose this post. Which better post to test zapping on.

Could you also link the discussion on HN? Sometimes that is more interesting than the original article itself.

These demonstrations are about pressuring the government to give more fiat money to old people. What they don't realise, is that you can't demonstrate away the reality of an ageing population.

Part of getting a degree is the social signal that you can spend a few years loyally working towards an achievement. I know many guys who decided to "start building", failed at what they tried to build, and now struggle to find or keep a job.

The way diapers are designed, poop pushes up the back if the diaper gets full. This happens more often than you think, every parent has a story like this.

At least the puritans had an objective standard to judge these things by. Twitter is just beholden to the whims of an egomaniac billionaire
