The goddamned U.S. invaded and destroyed all our crops, resulting in biblical levels of starvation. You learn to eat anything remotely edible. A town near where I grew up still has an annual event where they teach the younger generation which weeds are edible and how to cook them, just in case it ever happens again. Okra is fairly decent compared to poke weed.

As someone who grew up in the midwest, the vast majority of people very much think evolution is real. I remember once this girl trying to argue with our teacher about it and I literally thought she was joking and laughed at her since it was such an obscure view point here

Keep in mind that the midwest like the northeast was mostly settled by Catholics and Lutherans as you move to the west, while the south was with evangelicals. The Catholic and Lutheran areas are much less religious these days than traditionally evangelical areas, and even most devout catholics including the pope believe in evolution

>He is saying blacks never evolved while euros and chinks did.
Everyone evolved, we all just evolved differently for life in different places. It's not like niggers just stalled, rather they are (shocker) suited to life in Africa and all that entails. The lack of long winters, plentiful flora and fauna to eat, etc selected different traits for them

>>10802498
everyone evolved, evolution isn't a thing that starts or stops or goes forward and back, its just the way in which people evolve is different in different populations that faced different selective pressures

Now trying to say one group evolved in a better way is obviously not something you can say because what does "better" mean, and proving one group better than another is politically fraught

>my personal experience is true of the whole midwest
The only place I have seen more mega-churches than the midwest is Florida, stop comparing your unpopulated wasteland full of religious maniacs to the civilized parts of the country.

[Anonymous No.10802564]

>>10802553
The midwest, and catholic culture in general is not associated with mega churches, this just isn't a thing

I like how you are saying your objectively incorrect preconceptions are more accurate and useful, but by reasoned statement is just "personal experiences"

Also, unpopulated? The midwest is the 2nd most urban part of the country after the northeast. Are you confusing the midwest with the great plains or something?

adherents and religiosity are very different things. The midwest is absolutely stuffed with people who consider themselves "adherents" but never read the bible and only sporadically go to church if they do at all

We aren't talking about binary identity politics, its about what portion of society heavily practices religion, and how bad those specific sects of religion are

Not sure about that, the midwest is where I learned that some people consider "Catholic" and "Christian" to be distinct, mutually exclusive categories.

[Anonymous No.10802656]

>>10802632
>that some people consider "Catholic" and "Christian"
thats very much a southern evangelical thing, not a midwestern thing. There is a really odd, historic anti-catholic bias in the south probably stemming from catholic immigrants that settled in an became prosperous throughout the north while they remained poor in the reconstruction through early 1900s era

I grew up in a fairly rural part of the south, and my state is "red" on that map. We learned about evolution multiple times in public school. I remember doing it in "life science" which was probably 6-7 grade, and again in biology in 9th and/or 10th. I got it at least a 3rd time in Ecology, but that wasn't a required class, I took it as a science elective. You'd deal with it again if you took AP or DE bio. I don't even recall much of a big deal being made about it. There was probably some smartass that wanted to deny it just to troll the teacher, but that was about it. There might have been a few kids who excused themselves from those lectures, but if they did, they didn't make a big stink about it and most likely brought it up to the teacher before class. They were probably taken to a study hall room or something and did some "Intelligent Design" bullshit. There are certainly people that deny evolution in the south, but for the most part, they shut up, or are obvious retards who's opinion no one really weighs. It's really only old fucking people, or people who only graduated HS with a C or lower average and just got dumber as they got older and hit 30 or so and start clamouring about "fucking evolution and global warming bullshit" on FB or something.

"There are two traditional doctrines that provide indicia of how a de jure sovereign state comes into being. The declarative theory defines a state as a person in international law if it meets the following criteria:

a defined territory
a permanent population
a government, and
a capacity to enter into relations with other states."
Hmm... The Confederate States of America had : a defined territory, it had a permanent population, a functioning government, and the ability to enter relations with other states... it's almost as if the "Civil" War was a war of imperialist aggression similar to the American Revolution, but this time the empire won...

Do you think dude weed lmao will ever be a topic that can be brought up here or any board without the onslaught of autism? I live in Colorado and I've taken for granted what it is for other states in the US. It's to be used responsibly by adults, like alcohol, and it's just something that we don't need to worry about the police giving you problems. Gives money back to the state. Hard drug use is down. Why would anybody be opposed to that?

I lived in Rhode Island most of my childhood and all the kids there said "my family's not christian, it's catholic", being surrounded by a good deal of catholic Irish or Italians and all manner of Hispanics. It happened all the fucking time. I remember one history teacher finally hearing this and explaining respectably that what these kids referred to as christian was probably protestant and that they're universally understood to both belong to the more encompassing label of christianity with their differences between them, but I still remember hearing grown-ass people go " Not christian, catholic!" It's definitely not just the Midwest.
