Just finished Prophet of Dune for the second time. It's about how it's not a gift to know the future, because if you do, then you have no free will. It also comments on the difference between morality and law and which is better suited to governing humanity.

It's a weird book, but it follows Dune nicely and provides a fitting end to the story of Paul Atreides. It's also quite short, about half the length of the first book. I'm looking forward to the movie coming out later this year.

Altså; at lukke for undervisning på russisk i et land hvor en tredjedel taler russisk vil jeg også sige er helt galt. Det er jo bare at hælde vand bå Putins diskriminationsmølle.

Jeg er helt med på at det for Putin bare er et påskud, men vi bliver nødt til at stille krav til vores allierede om at behandle deres mindretal ordenligt, og ikke være ligeglade bare fordi de er vores allierede. Hvis vi afskaffede det tyske mindretals rettigheder i Sønderjylland ville jeg da også mene at det er en form for diskrimination mod tysktalende. Problemet bliver kun større med de kæmpe mindretal i baltikum.

Da konventionel dansk er ligeså god kvalitet som øko sydeuropæiske grøntsager er, det er ikke samme krav til øko i hele verden ej heller Europa

Æhm har du en kilde på det? Jeg var af den opfattelse at økostandarderne var nogenlunde ens i hele EU eftersom de alle har det samme grønne EU-Øko-mærke.

I personally find people’s lust for particular political ideologies disturbing In the same way I find those blinded by religion idiotic.

You are also following an ideology in which you value HDI, GDPPP and environmentalism. Ideology is simply a set of values that one thinks society is/should be organized around. I agree that we should increase HDI and protect the environment, and I think most people do, which is why politics is mostly focused on how to make life better, rather than if we should.

I don't think anyone can really claim to not have an ideology, unless they will accept literally any suggestion and never disagree to anything. Most people have opinions. Even then, an argument can be made that they are just a part of the majority ideology if they aren't opposing it.

Remember that your ideology doesn't need to have a name or be expansive. But it sounds like you value human life in which case your ideology is different from for example nazism:)

Der er heller ikke afgift på elbilstrøm som der er på brændstof, så hvis man vil finansiere motorvejene mm. på lang sigt må man gå over til en anden form for afgift for privatbilisme. Jeg forestiller mig en form for afgift baseret på hvor og hvor meget man kører, sådan at landdistrikterne kan være billige at køre i, mens byerne bliver dyrer.

Det eneste vi nu har brug for er at flyrejsen bliver langt dyrere, så toget bliver endnu mere attraktivt.

Det kunne den blive hvis flyselskaberne også skulle betale afgift på brændstoffet ligesom bilisterne. Lige nu er de fritaget. Da flytransport forurener meget synes jeg det er forkert ligefrem at subsidiere den. Man kan selvfølgelig indvende at det ville ramme social tskævt da de rige ikke vil blive påvirket og stadig ville flyve, men i det store billede tror jeg at der vil blive fløjet mindre og udledt mindre CO2 samlet set. Af den grund synes jeg at man bør afskaffe afgiftsfritagelsen på flybrændstof.

You're right that I care, otherwise I would not have made my initial comment. I apologise for being rude, I just didn't have the time to write a proper response.

The reason I commented is because I think that it's important that the discussion about what is pagan and what is not is taken with all the facts in mind. It just so happens that I watched a video where an expert explains that, although many people think so, there is in fact no evidence that Christmas trees are a pagan tradition appropriated by Christianity.

The reason I made my rude comment is that you dismiss the evidence I provide for my claim. I am very aware that people might not believe me at face value, which is why I provide evidence for my claim. I am making the, to your eyes "fucking ridiculous and wrong", claim, so to you the burden of proof is on me. I then provide proof. The reason i got frustrated is that you refuse to even engage at the evidence. At first you decice that you won't watch the video. I assume this is because you prefer to read instead, which is fair.

You take a cursory look at the channel and deem it "nuts", instead of looking into who the author is, what his credentials are and most importantly, you don't look at the sources for the video which are books and other material written by other scholars. I link the blogpost because I assume you don't care enough about this issue to read several books on the topic, and you dismiss this as well because it "has screenshots from twitter". The whole point of the blogpost is the same as my initial comment; to correct a longstanding myth, which is why it "responds" to twitter-posts. The blogpost is written scolar, although, I will admit, not an expert in early christianity like Dr. Mark Henry of Religion For Breakfast.

I am not trying to defend Christianity; I'm not even religious. All the video points out is that Christmas trees were likely a recent invention, and that we have no evidence to suggest that they were appropriated from a pagan religion.

Again, sorry for being rude in the previous comment. I hope you now understand why your behavior made me upset now, and I hope you will engage with the provided sources now. If you won't, then I stand by my original comment.
