A bill for creating a "Bible Day" holiday. Fuck right off with that. If you want to have a special bible day, keep it within your church. You have operation of state and church to stop this fundamentalist crap. But if someone wanted a Quran day they lose their shit

A doctrine insulates the devout not only against the realities around them but also against their own selves. The fanatical believer is not conscious of his envy, malice, pettiness and dishonesty. There is a wall of words between his consciousness and his real self.

Vehemence is the expression of a blind effort to support and uphold something that can never stand on its own — something rootless, incoherent, and incomplete. Whether it is our own meaningless self we are upholding or some doctrine devoid of evidence, we can do it only in a frenzy of faith.

CW: AI slop
For #ai. On the scale from #ludite to #zealot there's some people that really go all the way. Not myself, but to each his own.
This article from a friend of mine is taking it all the way, but asks a very interesting question at the end:
“If we started our business today—with current AI capabilities—how would it look?”
My answer: I would outlaw the use of LLM's for producing human read text and human viewed visuals in the statutory agreements. Good fences…

There is nothing in which Men more deceive themselves than in what the World calls Zeal. There are so many Passions which hide themselves under it, and so many Mischiefs arising from it, that some have gone so far as to say it would have been for the Benefit of Mankind if it had never been reckoned in the Catalogue of Virtues. It is certain, where it is once Laudable and Prudential, it is an hundred times Criminal and Erroneous; nor can it be otherwise, if we consider that it operates with equal Violence in all Religions, however opposite they may be to one another, and in all the Subdivisions of each Religion in particular.
Joseph Addison (1672-1719) English essayist, poet, statesman
Essay (1711-10-02), The Spectator, No. 185Sourcing, notes: wist.info/addison-joseph/53093…

@jesterchen
WTF!#ZEALOT ! STOP IT RIGHT NOW!
THOU SHALT NOT BE A FOOL BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH YOU SEEM TO BE RIGHT IN YOUR OWN EYES, YOU ARE NOT AND THAT WILL LEAD TO LOST FILES.
Ignoring best practices which have been well documented for about two decades is the problem of your precious #sudoers file being clobbered, not the software update. Instead you should use „sudoers.d“ or "sudoers.local“ as documented for almost 20 years now.

When, in the final weeks of the admin, #Trump planned to name #KashPatel dpy dir of the #CIA, Gina Haspel, the agency’s head, threatened to resign. Trump relented only after an intervention by VP #MikePence & others.
Who was this man, & why did so many top ofcls fear him?
It wasn’t a question of #ideology. He wasn’t a #zealot like #StephenMiller, trying to make the bureaucracy yield to his agenda. Rather, Patel appeared singularly focused on pleasing Trump.

The audacity of #privilege knows no bounds. This week, #Trump's least intellectually gifted son appeared on a religious #zealot's podcast and compared his father's legal issues to the systemic #racism and legal injustices faced by Black people for centuries.

The Birds of Prey are back, and their presentation card is really cool. Good writing, and the art... Am I the only one that finds it... Jaime Hernandez-esque? It's very good anyway.
In just an issue we got a "how and why they got together", and all of the team members have their moment to shine. Not bad, not bad.

The worst federal #judge in #America now has a name
Not simply for the poor quality of his #judicial reasoning…. What really distinguishes #Kacsmaryk is the loaded content of his rhetoric — not the language of a sober-minded, impartial jurist but of a #zealot, committed more to promoting a cause than applying the #law.

#bookburning #zealot #religion
A controversial pastor is planning a "massive burning" of Harry Potter and Twilight books, as well as other items, in Tennessee.
Global Vision Bible Church pastor Greg Locke was met with cries of approval on Sunday when he declared there would be a "burning service" this week.
Locke, who operates out of Mt. Juliet near Nashville, told them to bring Ouija boards, which he called a "portal to hell," and other items he said were associated with witchcraft.
