  • You’re confusing the ingredient list with the cooking order. Chili is a chili based recipe because that’s the main ingredient, the ingredient that needs to be there, on top of which you can add other stuff.

    Those are just used as aromatics, they’re not a main ingredient . You can replace them with other stuff or just omit them altogether and you’d still get a Chili. But if you replace the chili, then you just get a stew, can’t really call it chili anymore.

    Take beef bourguignon, for example. It’s a stew as well but its main ingredients, or base, if you will, are the beef and the red wine. Can’t replace those and still call it that








  • They’ve all taken the Torah that Moses dreamt up and made their own version with hookers and blackjack. You can spin it however you want, but it’s true. The fact that it’s not copied word for word doesn’t change the fact that it’s the same foundation.

    The Egyptians and the Mesopotamians/Babylonians influenced the Canaanite religion, then that evolved into Judaism, then that splintered into Judaism and Christianity and then came Mohammed who was like “yep, those guys and those books came from God! And I am the last prophet of God!”

    Then we got a bunch of other prophets like Joseph Smith, Nostradamus, David Koresh, Jim Jones, Ellen White, etc. So… Yeah.

    Also, I guess this is an example of how different people interpret these books. To me, 5:2 seems to speak against word vomit, which is what I was implying you’re doing in this thread and others.

    You remember wrong. It just means “of rome” and it’s that because it was a roman province. There’s a difference between “of rome” which is what “român” means and “the true descendants of Rome” which is what you’re claiming. We’ve never claimed to be more Roman than Italians or anything. That’d be stupid.








  • Uuuh, splitting hairs on my choice of words. The republican party split into two and so did the votes. The fact that I said “stole” wasn’t part of the point. And ofc you’re gonna say it’s impossible to know…

    It’s just a coincidence that in 1908 it was 6.4m vs 7.7m votes (dems and republicans respectively) and in 1912 it was 6.3m vs 3.5m + 4.1m (Dems vs republicans and progressives respectively)

    Yeah, the numbers stayed more or less the same except the republican vote got split. But yeah, that’s just a coincidence, we have no way of knowing!
