I hope you can get to the point where you no longer give a crap about those people and find a way to live for yourself or someone you actually care about.

That said, spite living is still better than not living at all. I wish you a chance at a happier life.

You should probably bring this up sooner rather than later. The longer you leave it the harder it'll be. Maybe something about loving them as a person but no longer being attracted to them on a sexual level.

There's not really any way I can think of that won't hurt at least a little bit.

This might have been better in unpopular opinions.

But I don't entirely disagree with you. There certainly are some true believers out there, some are better people than others.

But there are also a lot of people who use their status as Christians to essentially cover up their true personalities, there's a lot of people who believe that just because someone goes to church that they are a good person.

I was raised Christian, but left because I just saw too many people preaching one thing but then doing the opposite in practice. There's a lot of hate attached to a lot of Christians and I personally believe that's against the true intended spirit of the religion.

There's also the general history of how the church was used to control and such. But that's a discussion I really don't want to get into.

I mean not to offend, but arguing with a strong believer is a waste of time. The basis of religious belief is to trust without evidence, but that goes against my personal belief that nothing can be proven to be true without at least some evidence.

Kinda how it feels in Australia as well. Older politicians making changes that improve their own lives and seem uninterested in long term planning (examples such as privatising water and electricity and selling the biggest telecom company off too)

I do like that in my country, if there's an emergency, you don't need to think about it. You just get help without fear of being financially crippled for life.

I feel bad for Americans that you can't easily get medical help, even in emergencies.

I feel more and more justified about piracy every article I read about licensing and stuff just getting taken away after having paid good money for stuff

Sliders. One of those accessible sci-fi shows that helped instill a love of the genre

These are probably the same kinds of people who used to claim the devil was whispering to them in the random static noise from between TV stations.

They're clearly just broken people.

Exactly. If you're unable to explain the fee, then you're unable to prove it's a justified one
