  • I drive a Jeep and don’t feel a kinship with Jeepers. I used to. Mine is a 2001 and in those days I could drive across town and see 1-2 other Jeeps. We’d wave, and if we stopped at a red light next to each other, there’s a good chance we’d talk and possibly invite each other to go offroad or even just stop and have a beer or something. Most Jeepers knew their Jeep inside and out and had built, modified, installed and worked on every inch of them.

    Nowadays, it’s weird. There’s 3-4 Jeeps at every red light, so why wave? A lot of Jeeps are superhero or cartoon themed which is the dumbest most childish shit to me. There’s orange Nero jeeps and blue Dory jeeps, green Shrek jeeps, and they’re all covered in so many damn LED lights they could signal Jupiter. I’ve never got into the duck thing either.

    That’s enough of an old man rant. I won’t get into how I’ve seen Jeep events cancelled due to light sprinkles, how Jeep “offroad shops” mostly just sell LED lights and Jeep branded clothes now, or that time a trail leader interrupted me giving excellent advice to a Jeep experiencing brake fade coming down a mountain, to recommend taking the Jeep to the dealer.














  • “The 10 plagues are proven, that there was a “tower of bable”, Sodom and Gomorra, the city, from what i know are also proven to have existed.”

    None of those are proven. Egyptians kept good records and there are no records of Hebrew slaves in Egypt, and no records of the plagues or their escape. Furthermore, the Bible says the hebrews had 600,000 men in their army, which means easily 2-3 million people in all. This is roughly the same as the population of Egypt at the time.

    I’ve never heard anyone claim there’s any evidence for the Tower of Babel so I can’t comment on that, but people claiming Sodom and Gammorah existed point to naturally occurring Sulfer deposits as proof.

    “But i’d gladly would like to hear, why you think Iesus of nazared is supposed to be fiction?”

    Mythicism, the idea that Jesus wasn’t a real person, is not new but has risen in popularity on recent years because of historian Richard Carrier. There actually isn’t much real evidence that Jesus existed but there is a little. Carrier basically ignores or misinterprets this evidence and isn’t well regarded in scholarly circles. His most recent work failed peer review, which he attributes to a conspiracy against him.

    “The apostals all existed and their letters are one prove for that.”

    We don’t have a single thing that we know were written by the apostiles. They were most likely illiterate anyway. The Bible books Matthew, Mark, Luke and John were written anonymously. Hundreds of years later, the church put names on them.


  • Scaramucci is always in the news. It’s a pet peeve of mine. The guy worked under Trump for like a week 10 years ago and the media has been hanging onto every word he’s said since.

    Google his name and click “news.” Six stories about scaramucci today that aren’t about the 25th amendment, all of them stating the obvious. “Scaramucci alleges market manipulation during Iran war.” “Scaramucci warns of stagflation” “Scaramucci says war is to distract from Epstein files”

    I could say a bunch of shit that everybody else is already saying.
