I remember getting a hand-me-down digital 'black book' to store phone numbers during the age of the palm pilot. It had a 'dial' button and a speaker on the back. You could pick up the phone, put the speaker against the phone's mouthpiece and it would 'dial' by playing the correct tones. Blew. My. Mind.

That depends. Do you want them to learn, or do you want to feel superior to them?

"If you're trapped and can't figure out how to escape the trap by yourself, you deserve to be trapped?"

Is that really what you're saying here?

Which part? The spoiler tag is working on my client. Or did you mean the content?

"What does cyanide have to do with eating to survive?" It doesn't - exactly like eating meat. You don't need either to survive, and both are completely "natural".

By saying that "partaking in natural things should be free from judgement", you're also arguing that we shouldn't judge someone when they commit murder, rape, incest, and a whole slew of morally objectionable things because those things happen to also exist in nature.

If you meant that, you're too far gone to have a reasonable conversation. If that's not what you meant, then you need to rephrase your argument because "natural" does not mean "good".

Being "natural" is not an indicator of "good" or "bad".

Cyanide is natural. Eyeglasses are unnatural.

Maybe pick better metrics for society.

My math teacher (at a private school) was just a random students' mom. She had no higher degree and only taught the book. If you got the right answer by using a method not included in the book, it was marked half-credit because she didn't understand and wasn't interested in hearing your logic, because "that's not what the book says".

Being taught by people who have no drive for knowledge and just want to teach the standardized test answers SUCKS.

That makes sense. This church was 'non-denominational', which meant that if they could just have the church band play a jam session and still make money, they would.

... Y'all never had that happen?

"The Lord has other plans for the service today, so we're going to continue in this state of worship."

That encourages bot or otherwise low-effort comment spamming which we also don't want.

Seriously. Someone never clicked on the "you are an idiot" popup that auto-played music, moved around the screen, prevented task manager from opening and cloned itself if it was closed.

What if the story is from a week ago? Yes, your 3am happens at the same time as their 3am, but your 'night' is still their 'day'.

You'd have to intuitively know every time zone and their offset in order to have an immediate understanding the way you do now that 3AM is the middle of the night. It requires an additional question or lookup table, which makes it objectively worse of a system for humans to use and remember.
