It's Aaron Sorkin

Yeah, I've noticed the dialogue is mostly ridiculous, but i do like the characters. It just feels a bit on the nose at times, like when he interviewed the 3 conservative peeps on the immigration bill and they were all so far beyond caricatures it wasn't even a making a point.

Fucking why, though?

conservatives think high tariffs can kill overseas competition, thus making people buy 'Murican!

but for that to even have a chance to work America has to be producing the thing in the first place. As you can see, that's not really the case...

After Kylo kills Snoke, he gets knocked out by the lightspeed crash, and Hux happens upon the aftermath. Kylo wakes up and is about to leave and the conversation goes something like this:

Hux: Where are you going, can't you see that they've killed the Supreme Leader?

Kylo: The Supreme Leader is Dead! *force chokes Hux*

Hux: *gasping for breath* Long live the Supreme Leader

and then Kylo lets him go.

was that some weird way of Hux naming Kylo the new Supreme Leader, because that seems to be what happened? It doesn't really make sense as a conversation.

Wait, there are levels in Assassin's Creed now?

He means RPG levels. Your character has RPG stat growth in Origins.


That's what I mean. I've played several of the other games. That must be a new feature.

I need to play this now.

it's not a great feature tbh. It's used to artificially restrict how much you can explore. There are areas where the enemies literally just have a red skull icon above their heads, and that means they're strong enough to one shot you, and you can't do any damage to them. Steer clear of those areas.

Saw the first ep last night. The actual drama and teh characters and stuff were good enough, but the actual news show was cringey af (bc ya know they actually knew everything that was going to happen since that story already happened). Like they were trying to give the impression that the show was a success because they had a good team and Will was off script and doing his thing, but really it's because Aaron Sorkin already heard about the Deepwater Horizon spill.

Like he's preaching at people for not having the benefit of hindsight.

Haven't heard much since the initial blowup. If he gets nominated for an Oscar or something there will probably be some twitter backlash, but I'm not hearing Hollywood say they're unwilling to work with him ever again like they did with some people.

it absolutely is as big of a leap

No it's not. It's a whole lot easier to move to another denomination that also believes Jesus is your savior, than move to a different religion with different deities. You're not reshaping your worldview, you're changing how you worship.

FLUFFYGERM posted...
you can even be disowned by friends and family for the switch because it is perceived as joining a different religion.

that's on the shittiness of the families, not the perceived differences/similarities in the denominations.

How many Christians / Jews / Hindus / Muslims actually accept that you need to be part of their religion in order to be a good person or go to heaven?

The former, very few. The latter, idk. Seems like it's a pretty prominent teaching in many Christian denominations.

that's the logical result of believing one thing but not another

and I keep saying that hindus believe in other religions. your not getting it. to a hindu, all gods are real. because there is only one god that has many names and faces. the multiple gods in hinduism are actually really just a single being. and foreign gods fall under that category. hindus believe in Jesus. and Zeus. and Horus, and the Great Spirit and so on.

this is a vast oversimplification. They don't believe in all gods, in the sense that I couldn't make up a god right now and worship it, and all Hindus wouldn't suddenly believe in it. The validity of other gods won't be questioned, but the religion still has its own mythology and traditions, which are followed over those of other religions. So yes, they think their views are right. If they thought other views were right, they'd follow those teachings.

FLUFFYGERM posted...
Another angle this topic didn't consider is that...maybe every religion is similar in the areas that matter.

because that's irrelevant. Every religion can be boiled down to "be a good person" but some religions don't let you be happy in the afterlife unless you follow that religion. Being similar enough means we can get along, because we have shared cultural values, but it does nothing to address the underlying feeling of "i'm right, you're wrong"

You in India, good chance you'll practice Hinduism. Everyone else is wrong.

not really true. i was born and raised hindu. my dad always respected all religions. there were the main gods he'd directly pray to but he would never call anyone else wrong. hell he has a little cabinet of religious pictures and statues in his house and there is a picture of jesus in there one of his coworkers gave him at christmas years ago...its in there because to him it is a god that should be respected even if its not one he prays to. Most hindus i've known have been that way. then again it could just be a personal bias and it might just be my own family that thinks that way...

nah, I think that's generally what Hindu is. But it's still it's own distinct thing. They may not judge others as much but they obviously think their own beliefs are more valid, otherwise they'd be whatever they thought was better.
