I reckon the factory will be sold... Maybe the Mars family is looking for an expansion spot? The outlet has been its own weird conglomeration of stuff for quite a while too...

It goes without saying that fascists in general are the scum of the earth but... Hitler revered the English in particular. He was devastated that they entered the war opposing him for this reason. The British empire was, in his view, a thing to be admired.

but I find it infuriating how little press the dangers of sugar gets.

I think this there is part of the problem though. Even when we accept that the last thing that was bad for you, isn't actually as bad for you as we thought, we fail to learn the lesson in favour of pouncing on the next food that's bad for you.

Moderation is the name of the game. And I don't even really mean in terms of how much you eat, though obviously that matters. But more so in terms of what and how much, as a combination.

Like.. the amount of sugar in commercial bread is nuts and really isn't required, but it's being added in the process because lollies sell better, so to speak. But you could comfortably remove most, if not all of it, and still have perfectly delicious bread.

So, don't cut stuff out, but do think about how and how much you use.

the evidence they have says people overall are more productive in office.

It really doesn't, quite the opposite. But a bunch of people seem to think it does for some reason.

Does it require a lot of configuration though? Does it work?

But is it web scale?

Jesus existence has nothing to do with the religion in and of itself. He can be reall without Christianity being true. You're getting so caught up in wanting to argue against the theists that you're focusing on something completely irrelevant just to chalk up a victory.

I have no evidence one way or another for our against his existence, the point is that it doesn't matter. Jesus' potential existence has nothing to do with the truthiness of religion unless you believe that his existence can only be a validation of the new testament - which would be akin to your Obama comparison and would be patently ridiculous.

I have no proof that billions of specific people existed, doesn't change that they did.

Claiming that Jesus of Nazareth existed is not extraordinary at all though. It's hardly far-fetched to claim that he was real. Claiming that he was the son of God and could perform miracles however, is - as someone else pointed out.

Constantine is an excellent movie! I care not what anyone says - you have my crucifix!
