One of my American moots discussed with me about Christopher Hyatt, Stephen Kershner, and free will, and he did bring up the recent example of Lindsay Clancy and the controversy surrounding her case.

Maverick journo Michael Tracey has already covered the basic facts, so I‘ll skip on reinstating it, and jump onto the meat of the discussion behind this gendered discourse.

For starters, I don’t necessarily agree with the manosphere here, but I do understand their frustration because, more often than not, men get the short end of the stick in civil/family courts which use a lower evidentiary standard compared to supreme courts, especially when it comes to child custody, alimony, child support, divorce, and sex-related charges. Not to mention that society is more lenient towards female criminals compared to their male counterparts even if the crime was done under an episode of psychosis, as demonstrated by gender-based sentencing disparity favoring women over men: https://sp2016dev.law.umich.edu/newsandinfo/features/Pages/starr_gender_disparities.aspx

And yes, I know Michael here isn’t putting a gendered double standard, but still…

Whilst understanding the frustration, I still don’t agree with it as Clancy herself was not only failed by the very institutions she sought help from, but the warning signs (such as her expressing suicidal thoughts) were there long before the filicides. And it’s with that in mind that I think that the gendered discourse is masking something society is far more uncomfortable with.

In the first line of this text, I did mention the names of Hyatt and Kershner, and with good reason as those figures, despite radically different backgrounds (the former being a niche occultist, the latter an academic that got subjected to an investigative committee that outlasted the Warren commission) all hold that free will is a myth. Kirshner elaborated more on his point, making the argument against punishment in general on the basis that he didn't believe in free will, and therefore punishing someone is just punishing someone whose conditions/ biology/mental traits led them to that path and ultimately did nothing but satisfy a need for Post too long.

Again, there's literally zero evidence of Lindsay Clancy experiencing psychosis. Tracey is just uncritically accepting the defense witness' testimony (because Tracey is a contrarian retard).
Clancy never brought psychosis or hallucinations up to any of the shrinks she's seen over the years before the murders (they all diagnosed her with anxiety, bipolar, depression, etc). The only "evidence" are a couple Google searches for "symptoms of postpartum psychosis" Clancy made in the days before the murders; symptoms that she conveniently NEVER decided to bring to anybody else. Along with sending her husband out of the house right before the murders, these actions are clearly premeditated first-degree murder. She should be convicted, but I wouldn't be surprised if she gets off considering how much feminist idpol permeates in the mind of Western cattle.

I personally think the obsession people have over "true crime" is extremely unhealthy, especially if it's affecting your relationships with other people.

>>819505
It’s not obsessing over true crime. It’s more politicizing true crime stories.

>Why would Jesus preach to people if God didn't care about people's faith? Contradiction.
God does care, but we were discussing the specifics of judgement. Obviously someone who grows up in, say, Saudi Arabia, is going to find it much harder to convert than someone who grows up in, say, the American South. In order for God to be Just, he must have a method of weighing all those who did not have access to Bibles or who were never preached to. It's essentially your "atheist who did nothing wrong" argument extrapolated to the entire world. So obviously God takes all this into account.

Matthew 10:14-15 (NIV)
<If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.

Why is Jesus saying punishment will be lighter on Sodom and Gomorrah? Because Sodom and Gomorrah never had His disciples preaching to those towns. This is Jesus outright admitting that there will different degrees of punishment varying based on how much people knew of the truth. It's Jesus stating that he takes the material conditions of each civilization into account. What else is the alternative you propose? By the standards of 21st century morality, the Roman Empire is a barbaric imperialist slave-owning empire that should be destroyed and yet Jesus didn't go around saying everyone there should die. A flat "one size fits all" judgement would privilege all the newer generations of humanity compared to the older generations. That's not right or fair, and Jesus being truly good points out that there are different standards that will be applied.
>God isn't fair. That's the point
That is your argument, which you have yet to prove. So far I think I've proven I have a better grasp on this theology than you do, so I'm inclined to think my argument for God being fair is better.

>God is a hypocrite, of course, since he kills and rapes people.
Hold on a second. You attack God for not punishing evil instantaneously, and then you also accuse him of being evil in the times (I'm guessing the Old Testament stories) where he takes a more active presence and does kill evildPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>God does care
If God cares, why would he create the problem to begin with?
He doesn't care. He has predestined Hell for unbelievers.
>atheist who did nothing wrong
So is it grace through faith, or is it good works which saves people?
You aren't making sense. If good works save us, we don't need faith.
If faith saves us, good works don't count for anything.
>different degrees of punishment varying based on how much people knew of the truth
So its not just the burning lake of fire, but extra punishments too? What is the crime again? Eternal torment for not believing in an a thing without evidence? Demand proof? But tell me, do you think its fair to punish people for all eternity for anything? I don't. God does.
>What else is the alternative you propose?
I take Paul's account that the law is written on our hearts.
Moral progress doesn't exist. You apparently think the law changes.
>By the standards of 21st century morality, the Roman Empire is a barbaric imperialist slave-owning empire that should be destroyed
We are more immoral today than ever were in the past. There are no relative historical standards, only knowledge and ignorance.

>He doesn't care. He has predestined Hell for unbelievers.
We just spent the past few posts going over how unbelievers are not going to be thrown into Hell solely on the basis of their belief/disbelief but on a judgement by God taking multiple different factors into account, and I went to great effort citing multiple verses to bolster my argument. I'm not going to rehash and explain it all again; if you remain confused please scroll back up and read.
>So is it grace through faith, or is it good works which saves people?
Just like how there are different punishments for evildoers, there are also different rewards for the righteous. I also think I finally understand your problem. You are operating off a caricature of American Protestantism since you haven't actually read the Bible and cannot engage with the substance but are simply setting up strawmen based off popular misunderstandings promoted by American Christians (who also haven't read their Bibles).
1 Corinthians 3:11-14
<For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, their work will be shown for what it is, because the [Judgement] Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved—even though only as one escaping through the flames.

Faith produces good works which determine your placement in Heaven. Belief can get you through the gates but how much you actually helped others (widows, orphans, poor, sick, etc.) earns promotions. There is a hierarchy based upon the people who lived the best (humble, helping, healing, etc.) possible lives they could, who will be placed in charge over others.

>But tell me, do you think its fair to punish people for all eternity for anything? I don't. God does.

I think there are people who actually do deserve such a punishment. For example, Satan, who is explicitly named as one of the people suffering eternal punishment. How do you calculate the punishment for ruPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>Faith produces good works
We finally get to it. If an atheist is good, does he actually have faith, even if he hasn't recognised it? Or is faith the confession of a name?
>Satan
Satan does nothing without God's permission. He works for God.
Saying Satan should be eternally punished for doing his job is insane.
>How do you calculate the punishment for ruining billions upon billions of human lives?
The only life Satan has ruined is Job's, which was by God's command. For all the rest, Satan tempts, but does not actually do anything. Satan is innocent.
>God is Just
Making sinless men blind from birth is justice, apparently.
>Can you count in the Bible how many times people are confirmed to be going to Hell?
All of those who have weeping and gnashing of teeth. All sinners:
<Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a] 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

The spiked magazine people used to be the revolutionary communist party / "living marxism" and ran such a pro climate change line (concurrent with a denialist one) but they're professional (possibly glowie) contrarians. (Some of their ilk wound up in Boris Johnson's conservative government and today they're all right wing culture war grifters, but many of their greatest hits started with living Marxism. For example they were doing all the cliches about university cancel culture closed mindedness back in the 1990s…)/

Good, marriage is a sham and a humbug, it's only cheating because societal/social expectation make it so you can't just divorce someone immediatly/there are children in the equation that chain you to the relationship.

I wanted to do something social outside, but for free since I am completely broke, and chance would have it local anarchist collective organized a communal picnic plus some workshops.I thought it wold be a good opportunity to meet new people. Went there saw handful of groups of young people sitting around the park, and just kept walking. Didnt know what do to, how to introduce myself, if it would be appropriate to intrude.
So just walked across entire city home. On the way visited a vegan ice cream place, it was overpriced, 6 euro for two scoops, not very wise given my precarious financial situation, but I wanted something to cheer me up. The red one wasnt anything amazing, bu the white was very tasty.

How do you meet people IRL? I am completely clueless.

>>819369
What flavour were they? Beetroot and lemon?

>>819381
The red one is bilberry. I think. Or some similar forest fruit. The other one is salted cashew nut.
