Israel is a lot of things, but not an ethnostate. Falashas and Sefardim aren’t white, and they’re recognized as citizens as much as Ashkenazim, at least legally (there is racism between Jews in Israel too, but it’s the case everywhere).

I don’t understand why Israel is the only criminal State in the world that progressive people want totally destroyed. Russia, Iran, Syria, … are imperialist criminal states too, and progressive people “only” want their government changed. I want the fascist government of Israel overthrown, but I have no right to call for the destruction of the country itself. The only difference is Judaism.

If the Jew people of Palestine want the independence, who are we to deny it? The only moral solution in this case is the two states solution.

Thus you’re denying the right of self determination for the Jew people. QED.

It would be replaced by what?

I never saw a strong international pressure to make Israel comply.

The goal should be the two states solution. It won’t be possible if there isn’t a strong international pressure on Israel. Again, Israel is a criminal state and should be treated as such. So is Russia, and nobody publishes memes on how Russia has no right to exist.

Denying the Jews the right to self-determination that all other peoples have is antisemitic.

Israel is a criminal state that should be stopped. But we can do that, we should do that, without antisemitism.

If I understand the original idiom, the nearest French expression would be “you can’t make a race horse from a donkey” (“tu ne peux pas faire un cheval de course d’un âne”).

That actually makes sense. A being so powerful is far too different from humanity to communicate clearly.

Most Christians accept the reality of the evolution, you know. Most of them aren’t literalists who believe that Adam and Eve actually existed.

And for the ones delusional enough to believe that, they generally believe that God decided everything, so I guess he could have decided that some people kind of evolved, but under the direct control of God, and not by natural selection.

And then Wifey will throw the bottle and yell at me because I don’t throw my junk, and then she will yell at me again because I use her shampoo.

Have I ADHD? I thought I was just stupid ^^.

There’s a video showing the difference.

I guess there’s nothing new under the sun.

And that’s some old hebrew wisdom 🙂

Android is exactly why I think it’s important not to ditch GNU in GNU/Linux. I don’t care about codelines, I care about the philosophy.

For most of human history, slavery was a normal thing, I’m not sure your argument is a good one.

After all, he could have created us with free will and no suffering, but chose not to.

Could he? Like I said, omnipotence can’t go against logic. Which free will would we have if we couldn’t make bad and suffering-inducing decisions?

He is. But he also loves us thus he will not use his omnipotence to make us do something we do not want. And omnipotence can’t go against logic.
