I've seen plenty of folks argue for the death penalty for rapists. Blows my mind a bit, speaking as a survivor. I'm also against the death penalty in general, though, and that's unfortunately not the most popular opinion. Gallup puts it at 49% in support for people convicted of murder as of this year, and Pew Research has it at a whopping 66%.

    The old testament originally didnt portray Satan as a singular character. The Hebrew word was used fairly often to describe all sorts of adversaries. The idea of a figure that portrayed the ultimate evil that rebelled against god and was cast out of heaven isnt found anywhere in the bible.

    I talk to people or I walk away if need be or if I'm able. Haven't always been able, if you're curious. Have been raped on multiple occasions, obv didn't talk my way out of it, and cannot imagine the perpetrators considered me equal.

    But yeah, in this instance I'm blockin and walkin away. Have a good one

    In what world did I suggest that's what I want. Are you capable of considering there are other methods to achieve the goal we are both pursuing without encouraging the use of violence over people saying offensive shit?
