so after a long time user of Android phones i'm forced to switch to iPhone..

I have limited experience here, but maybe this helps a little.

I get the sense that you are right on compatibility, in the sense that Apple seems to be better at that and it's technology is smarter and more intuitive.

To give the only specific example I have: I used to have an Iphone. and I use my phone a lot with my car.

I hook up the phone and can play music from the phone, listen to podcasts etc.

Then I switched to Android. I can still do this with Android.

But it worked A LOT smoother with the Iphone than with the Android. Especially in terms of voice commands.

I was very easily able to use voice with my iphone to ask it to play music, to send texts (I would dictate the text to the phone and it would send them no problem), and to basically make it do whatever.

With the Android for some reason it just doesn't work 99 percent of the time when I try to use a voice command. It says that I need to stop the car to use it which defeats the purpose of using voice commands.

So I don't know if that is directly relevant. Full disclosure, I have five shares of Apple stock so I have a vested financial interest in which phone you buy.

I am looking for a credit card with good rewards and no annual fee.

Leaning towards the Fidelity credit card.

Would love the perks of a GM card but they are not offering hybrid vehicles. My transportation needs (I like to go on road trips) necessitate the flexibility of a hybrid vehicle but I would like to use electric for day to day driving.

Religion is sick.

I agree we shouldn't base government policies around religion.

I think though in Western countries that never really happens...it's more of a way to manipulate people to vote for policies that are often not very religious at all. Like tax cuts for the rich.

The solution isn't really to get rid of religion in that case, but to have better education and critical thinking education specifically.

Though I've heard the opinion that saying "people who vote conservative aren't educated enough" is an elitist way of looking at things. I am still grappling with this idea.

Elitist or not, it's hard for me to understand people voting and doing things against their own interests any other way.

Many people donated to Trump's stop the steal fund, raising millions of dollars, most of which has gone to pay back campaign debts or fund unrelated Republican party projects. I wonder how many of them read the fine print that said that their donations didn't have to be used for legal fees unless it was over 8,000 dollars or whatever it was. Probably few. I'm sure the problem isn't a case of too much education, eh.

Drugs don't count. I thought I met god sometimes on the right stuff too but...No.

Lol. I meant more something, perhaps, along the lines of what happens to Jules in the movie Pulp Fiction. Or something like that.

I've felt like a god or nature spirit has spoken to me at some points in my life, without the benefit of drugs. But you're right it's not something I would demand other people accept as real and base their life on.

Just one question to this. And then I'll get on to the rest of your response:

How?

I would argue I can't possibly be doing the same thing at all!
They're not the same thing.

To say there should be proof of the argument is in no way making a point of some kind without proof. I honestly don't understand the logic of your analysis of my logic LOL

I was kinda half-joking with that part. Taking this sentence:

"If you believe in something you can't see or prove exists you are insane"

completely at face value without adding anything to it and assuming that you did not have evidence for that claim that believing in something without evidence makes you insane by some legal definition.

Though now that I think about it maybe that doesn't really make as much sense as I thought it did. Idk I 've had about 6 hours of sleep the past two nights total.

commies banned religion.. guess it worked for them for a while - till it didint.

Sadly, banning religion is unrealistic. But it's my #1 wish all the same. Nothing says an un-healthy democracy like voting your values based on BULLSH*T.

I can't agree with banning religion but i am guessing you've made a topic just about that so i will see you there when i get a chance.

Btw, Lano, I'm sure I've created posts like that before but it's been a while. I'm starting to think it's time to debate it again though. Keep an eye out!

Oh there is a recent post marked nsfw up about religion being bad by someone anonymous i assumed it was you because of the timing lol.
