Israeli Dual Citizens Vote GOP in US Midterms: The Abortion & Healthcare Contradiction #VoteBlue #Midterms #FDT #Liberal #israel #zionism
10% of Israelis have dual citizenship here in the U.S., which means they can vote in our elections. And they do.

They vote conservative.

But in their own country? They vote progressive. They vote liberal because they want abortion access and free health care.

Here, they vote Republican because they don't give a shit if we have abortion access or universal health care. They just care that the Republicans will continue to send money to Israel so they can have those things.

Enjoy the hypocrisy.

Did Islam Allow Child Marriage? Debunking the Aisha Myth & Classical Sources #Islam #ChildMarriage #Aisha #ProphetMuhammad #Debate #islam
Islam does not allow child marriage.

It in fact does. Let me debunk this for you.

People say Aisha was nine when she married Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Yes, this is true. Well, then you've already destroyed your own argument. The traditional account is actually worse: Sahih Bukhari says the marriage was contracted when she was six and consummated when she was nine.

"When your prophet engaged in sexual intercourse with the nine-year-old, who you're saying is not a child."

We know she was mature? Show us. There is no Hadith stating Aisha possessed adult mental maturity or gave informed adult consent. Your texts simply don't say that. You added it because the actual report is indefensible by modern standards.

Authentic Bukhari literally places this narration under a chapter titled: Giving One's Young Children in Marriage.

Fun fact: She was engaged before marrying the Prophet. Does a child get engaged? No. But historically, children were betrothed all the time. If the marriage was contracted at six, the previous engagement happened when she was even younger.

Your sources call her "young." You are the one trying to redefine her as an adult. You're not proving Aisha wasn't a child; you're changing the definition of adulthood. Puberty is not adult mental capacity. A biological change doesn't give a nine-year-old the judgment of an adult.

Madalyn Murray O'hair ❤️ #athiesm #Atheist #Science #evolution #Discovery
Where do you think you came from?
Madalyn Murray O'Hair boldly challenges the question, urging us to ask correctly: "From once was life derived?" She admits she doesn't know the answer but embraces that uncertainty with courage.

"The answer is going to come to us," she insists, pointing to astronomy, space exploration, astrophysics, and biochemistry—not ancient religious texts.

In labs worldwide, organic material is being created from inorganic substances, signaling that science, not biblical stories written by wandering peasants, holds the key.

O'Hair champions future discoveries by Einstein and Nobel laureates as the true sources of our understanding of life's origins. No myths, just science.

Islam’s Problem With Gays, Bacon & Dogs: It’s Just Pattern Recognition #Islam #PatternRecognition #Religion
Islam has a problem with gays, democracy, bacon, dogs, music, Christmas, Hindus, Jews, Buddhists, Christians, women who show their hair, people who leave their religion, and even people who draw pictures of their prophet — who, by the way, married a six-year-old.

But if I have a problem with Islam, for some reason, I'm an Islamophobe.

No, no, no, no. So you're not. You're not. You're just a gentleman that is smart enough to recognize patterns, evidence, and the data. That's just a smart thing to do. You're just a smart man. It's simple: they cannot coexist with another religion or another culture. It's just impossible for them.

No problem. Feel free to do whatever you want with your own time and your own life. Just do it in your country, do it somewhere else. Don't just force us into that nonsense. That's all we ask for.

That's all.

Why is Pounds Abbreviated as LBS? The Metric System vs Imperial Confusion Explained #Pounds #LBS #MetricSystem #ImperialUnits @trevornoah
On my side of the world—which is the rest of the world—we use the metric system. It’s efficient, simple, and everything fits together. Out here you have imperial, which is fine. I won’t judge you. If you want to be imaginary, that’s up to you.

But consistency is needed. When we abbreviate milligrams, we use MG. You guys have ounces, abbreviated as OZ? There’s no Z in the word ounces. That’s pale in comparison to what you’ve done with pounds.

Please explain to me how the abbreviation for pounds became LBS.

I look like the idiot walking into the store going, “Could I please have the two labs bag of show?”

I was like, “You mean pounds?”

I said, “I don’t see the pee, no I don’t.”

I said, “Well, it means pounds. This is not LBS. A lot of bullshit, that’s what it stands for.”
