        Gambling is bad because of the consequences of gambling when you have finite resources to lose. I assume that any form of heaven is post-scarcity so betting is done just for recreational purposes.

          One could argue that any form of addiction ought to be avoided on principle if your goal is to remain “pure”

            Look, all I’m saying is: if Jesus died for our sins and you aren’t committing any, then I guess I just want to know why you insist on making his death be in vain? I mean, I know if I was to go through a whole ass crucifixion and everything I would like to think it was at least worth it

            There’s as much evidence of that as for any other idea of heaven or the existence of an heaven at all

              Except that we all know what the believers in heaven are like, and if they actually got in they’d ruin the place.

            Similar to how they think god is like a father or king but nice, plus obviously the smartest and strongest and best at everything and can totally beat up YOUR dad?

        Man I called that, along with probably a ton of others, from the very first episode. Still, the writers did such a good job with it I was not disappointed that the very obvious twist indeed was the twist.

        Also for some reason, not sure if it’s just my app (Sync) but your spoiler tags didn’t work right. Idk why you have >!spoiler and not just >! Like if it’s my app making it display wrong or that breaks the tag beats me.

        Could also, maybe more likely, be the end tag being --!< That might fuck up the syntax.

          I use Sync, and have learned that our spoilers don’t work for other users and their spoilers don’t work for us.

            That’s kind of wild I wonder what is going on in the code for that to be the case. I don’t know how that works under the hood as far as that goes.

      Cat girls are not furries. And I’m willing to die on this hill.

        Well there’s a spectrum isn’t there and everybody puts their marker just slightly ahead of what they like. Unless you go full furry, in which case I guess you don’t have any use for the marker

        I won’t argue with you, but the hill you’re gonna die on is named Furry Mountain.

        I’ll accept that argument as long as they are normal women who wear cat themed accessories and act like a cats. But if we’re talking full anime cat human hybrids, then I’m afraid you’re in furry town.

        i mean, technically by the most barebones definition of the word, they are anthropomorphic, and do technically count as “furry”

        if you’re looking for a “harkness” test here, e621 allows humanoid characters, i.e. catgirls, therefore catgirls are in fact, furry.

        Humans are apes, and therefore we’re all ape furries. Since catgirls are girls, and girls are human, and humans are all ape furries, catgirls are furries.
