I don't expect people who can vividly imagine to be doing it all the time, kinda interpreted this as a cap. Still 1-2 distinction seems odd to me. Is it cartoon to realistic?

Black Samurai in Japan = woke. (even when historically supported and a specific fantasy game)

That Corna one over there, at least in Portugal, comes from we saying to put (on) the horns (por os cornos) means you're cheating on your partner, making them the horned one (cornuda/chifrudo).

So I think doing that gesture to someone not your partner is an insult as much as any other hand gesture you can make as long as you are talking angrily.

Lisboa. I don't remember where but it was around the city.

I've seen a colour one like the one I posted below here in Portugal. It really is not an institutionalised thing, it's just what the owner decides how wacky their place is gonna be.

You do have start somewhere. Complex numbers have an impossible assumption at its core. But it needs to be falsifiable. You need to be able to prove it isn't true and fail at it.

God exists and God is all powerful are a blanket check to solve everything, because it just does whatever you want it to and you don't even try to prove it. 1+1 = 2 is a semantic axiom, not really equivalent to wilder assumptions you can do where those wouldn't be comparable to there's an all powerful something in existent in our reality that affects it at will.

It's like believing there's a multiverse, it's not a useful axiom as it's not measurable and specially not falsifiable.

It's useful to keep an open mind and not discard people based on irrational beliefs, but God is something you can only accept in the scientific method if you bend or break the method.

Imo, That's not even looking at the fact that any type of religious organization ends up being someone taking advantage of the faithful. It irks me to no end, and it's rare to find faithful in a vacuum.

Think of a base and look up what highlights or contrasts it. Red or Blue calls for black or white, or maybe brown to beige. Green when dull calls for browns. Orange calls for black more than white, some darker blues or jeans too. Purple and violet like green, or grey or beige. Pink goes better with white than black. If you want several look at how flowers combine the multiple colors (besides all the green). Those are the combinations that generally are enjoyable to see.

Edit: I just wear black or blue as a base and add red as highlight most of the time. Red shirt. Red belt, white and red shoes. And for whatever else I have specific outfits I don't mix with anything else. Somethings I look like a metal head with band shirts and long hair. The next day you'll see me wear basics and light jeans with a straw hat.

Not sure if I'm taking the bait but here goes.

Science is a set of processes where you take belief out of the equation. You can start with something akin, which when you have informed belief you have an hypothesis which you set out to prove. You don't hold that as truth and anything not falsifiable is not a valid hypothesis.

Science is not a religion, it's just a thing. Plenty of people need to belief to function and end up having (even a blind) faith in science, using it as a religion.

On your second point I'm with you on the last part though I think you are calling religions and believes things that are organized religion and religion.

That's what I thought too. But lo and behold

There's a guy who bought 3 of this and set them as the lights for a rave at a venue, was pretty funny
