Uh finally got a new phone after finding one with such good price, it was too good to be true.


Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 4G


I never had Xiaomi phone before, but this was the only popular brand which had android, while also being cheap enough.


I wanted to get samsung, but when I compared specifications, samsung A26 was worse for higher price.


I also found iphone 12 for like 200$, but aint no way I am buying that. As an android user, I know what it means to have play store with 4 million apps. This is why Iphone and Huawei is a no no.


So I only had option between Xiaomi and Samsung, but then I found in online store this Xiaomi with like 100$ less than what it costs normally. I had to buy it.


No regrets, phone works. 108 megapixel camera is something, I guess. I dont know what AI camera even is, but apparently has that too.


But the best part is 8gb RAM with 256 GB memory.


God, thats a lot of memory. My previous phone had like 2 gb ram and 32 gb memory, and that disappears fast once you install about 50 to 80 apps.


I am very happy. I wanted to wait until my old phone dies, but my old phone just keeps working fine, so I couldnt wait anymore, plus I know life is about making the most out of every day, and I feel limited with my old phone because I am constantly uninstalling apps to free up memory, which is horrible. Also, my old phone is slow and sometimes exists apps on its own, which is terrible when I am in the middle of writing something. So I would say having one phone for 6 years is enough, tho this old phone will probably last another 5 years, I dont really see it breaking down any time soon, because I have some strange gift that phones I have always last a long time because I dont overcharge and keep battery 20% to 80% always. Also, I have never dropped a phone in my life.

And did you know that Africa, the most religious continent, has the highest rate of road traffic related deaths


Entire world believes in God, not just Africa, and degrees of religious dedication are impossible to meassure. Maybe only Chinese and Japanese are mostly atheists, which we can see how it worked out for them there. Sucks to be them.

Fake study which is contradicted by its own sources:


"Much of the relevant research was conducted in the U.S. where larger advantages in longevity were reported for religious people in some studies, but little or no advantage was found in others. It is difficult to make sense of these discrepancies but it seems likely that religiously observant people in the U.S. live longer than those who stay away from church."

It would be less logical to suggest the opposite


I dont think you know what logical means. Opposite is possible and did happen plenty of times, making your claim false.


And all life outcomes are the same


No, living 5 years shorter is not the same as living 5 years longer.


Not only do religious people live longer and have less depression, but children of religious or conservative parents also have much less mental health issues, in addition to the fact that religious or conservatives are more likely to reproduce.


So yeah, calling different things same is another example of your great logic.

The ancient Greeks still praised their gods as being just and wise. Ditto for Odin and Jupiter and so on. 


No, they saw their Gods as powerful and wise. Hera was evil God. Loki was a trickster. Zeus was rapist. Hades too was rapist who kidnapped a Goddess and took her to underworld where he raped her. So I am afraid all good Gods exist only in Christian fairy tales.

SatanLucy
Theists today don't really want to believe in a half good, half evil God


Lol which theists? Nordic Gods were always partially evil. Ancient Greece Gods, some were more evil than good. If you are talking about Christianity, islam and hinduism... well, sure, they have the problem of evil, and its only a problem for them, along with problem of free will vs omniscience. Thats what happens when you give hundreds of attributes to God and suddenly some attributes contradict each other.

SatanLucy
I'm not sure that a thoughtfully composed honest reply constitutes a rant


It does when all you do is repeat same conclusion claim 15 times in a different way. And of course you dont know that uncertainty principle doesnt favor you:

1. God exists and can be pleased

2. God exists and cannot be pleased

3. God doesnt exist


Which one of these 3 favors atheists? 2 and 3 favor religious people. So none favor atheists, unless you think God is pleased with atheists specifically, which is an absurd conclusion given how much atheists insult God they dont even believe in. And if you believe in such God, then you cant be atheist at the same time. So atheist cannot even reasonably assume 1 withoout stopping with being atheist.

SatanLucy
Just maybe BK there is no such thing as a GOD or GODS


Sadly for atheists, belief in God costs nothing and comes with possible rewards and actual rewards as well, lack of mentioned belief doesnt benefit a person at all, but does come with costs which atheists pay for in this life too. Now, you can rant as much as you want, I am sure your atheist friends praise your lack of belief as some strange quality to be proud of, as it supports their delusions.

Omni benevolent God likely is a false idea about God. True God is both good and evil. The only way omni benevolent God can work is if we twist the idea of omni benevolent by making God be good towards both good and evil, which is something Bible does, saying God benefits all.

Supernatural pain reliever is repeating prayer words over and over, then having no thoughts or focus for few minutes, then repeat prayer.

Spanish flu accounted for approximately 50 million


Flu still kills people today. Covid killed millions too. But again, people want to trust modern medicine, even tho there are more illnesses now than ever.

SatanLucy

Magic + herbs = perfect.


Modern medicine, especially countless pills which barely have any use, are trash.


You can actually see that pills dont work well to treat mental illnesses in many cases, and they also dont treat much of anything. Even pain reducing pills are questionable because they could harm recovery.


Traditional medicine, usually has no any side effects. Willow tree leaves reduce pain, yet have no side effects which come from the pills which are also made from willow tree leaves.


So the point is, what people today dont get: pills are actually in many cases made from ingredients from herbs. The only difference is proccessing where more things are added.


Kinda like with vaccines. Vaccine in its essence can be easily replicated by exposing yourself to much weaker version of virus than the one you want to defend from. This is usually done by exposing one's self to environments filled with viruses, such as mother nature where viruses are everywhere.


Forest is actually a natural cure for many diseases, especially pine tree forest which can cure many diseases modern medicine cant.

SatanLucy
Well, the reason that there are 8.1 billion of us, and that life expectancy has increased significantly, is solely down to modern medicine and surgery.

Not really. In past, there were constant wars, food shortages and theft, as well as labor which was far more intensive than labor today. And population growth today is actually lower in countries with more modern medicine.

The look is similar, I guess. I also have a version where instead of forks, its 8 times nordic rune for protection. I dont exactly know the connection between Satan and trident, but some prayers do mention trident specifically, like "In the name of the Dragon, I invoke Lucifer, Lord of the Trident..."


Now, of course, there is also a disagreement on if Lucifer is Satan...


Tho I generally stay away from debating my religion. I use almost all good symbols I find. Debating it is pointless because I am going to use lots of variations of a symbol anyway. The only real debate could be which symbols go on my arms, because space is limited there, even if I make symbols tiny which isnt even good.

SatanLucy

Fork, Trident is more Satanic, or Poseidon symbol. I dont want to wear symbols which the average person would confuse for Christianity. Solar Cross I can wear. Celtic cross is similar, except looks closer to Christian cross.

SatanLucy

Isnt that a Christian symbol? There is solar cross for pagans, which is a different thing. But I generally avoid cross symbols which are too similar to Christian faith. There is Ancient Egyptian symbol similar to cross, and that one I do use because it cannot be related to Christianity.
