Reminds me of checking out r/communism and one of the first posts was about how their mods were CIA.

On the final Dickens novel, which is incidentally the first he wrote (or published anyway), The Pickwick Papers. ****ing hilarious! The man could really do comedy. As a first effort, this must have blown people away in the nineteenth century. The kid's going places!

Thumbin through the bible a bit lately and Lot's story about how he got his daughters pregnant is pretty unconvincing.

I like that part in the Book of Judges when the Jews are conquering Israel and God gets mad cause they don't commit enough genocide.

Man was a petty bitch until he secured the existence of god's people and a future for the believers of his child.

Also if you capitalize god you're a cuck. Wish we still had the tag to take care of saying that for me.
