Stories like this are why I donate my CPU/GPU time to SiDock/Rosetta/Folding@home. We all can make a difference, even if our contributions are small.
I’m still constantly weirded out by Destin when he talks about anything relating to personal life. Gives me “creepy preacher that beats his children for not saying yes sir” vibes
Glad she is doing better and has a very supportive spouse.
He is catholic, which honestly given his content I find strange… I’ve never understood how people can maintain their religions in such a field.
I’m not sure how religious he is, but it must be very to maintain it after all of his research and education.
Religon and science aren’t necessarily incompatible. Some religons say a higher power did stuff and it happened “because they’re god, science is witchcraft” Some religions say a higher power did stuff “because they’re god” and science is just figuring out how they did it.
Knowing how stuff happened doesn’t necessarily make a higher power impossible, nor less powerful. It’s just cool.He also doesn’t necessarily need to believe in any higher power. You can still practice your religion and practice the traditions of your religion and take the parts that feel good or make good in your eyes and still practice science.
You can also believe in higher power but just don’t consider or think about whats contradictory.
i think majority wouldn’t dare to show their personal take on eternal-life in public, being afraid to receive bad comments. So, kudo’s to him to do so here and there, in the face of being bullied. personally, i think how he does it is appropriate and not over the top.
Regarding how serious he’s about it; He actually quoted Galatians 5:22-23, at 11:20 with a passion. i.m.o., he isn’t “being religious” but he makes it practical.
Was she vaccinated? If not, why would I care.
