Sometimes I try to visualize smug, snarky comments like this if it were about something I believe in. Like, if there were a mixed race proposal and it said "Racism is so defeated," would that be any better?
No, it's cringy as hell. Makes the proposal seem like it's about some agenda rather than loving the person.
Pride month, to him, is about LGBTQ people hating non-LGBTQ people. By demonstrating a hetero proposal, he is somehow sticking it to the awful queers who want such things abolished.
He's a hateful idiot and thinks everyone else is, too.
If it's the one I found looking online, the guy's boss did it as a practical joke and didn't "blow him up", but caused internal damage that he died from 15 days later.

Pascal's Wager always seemed really flawed to me even through a purely Christian perspective. You're saying that god is so oblivious (even though he's supposed to be omniscient) that he'll be fooled by you claiming to believe just because you're hedging your bets? The actual reason it's dumb is that it's not a binary choice since there are thousands of ways people claim you can be saved in various religions.
The "wager" that makes the most sense to me, then, is to behave as if there is no god that cares what you do or who you worship. Try your best to be a positive force in the world, because whether anything we do matters to the universe or not, it matters to us humans.
Israel simultaneously wants to live in peace as a liberal Jewish state without committing any form of ethnic cleansing; and achieve its manifest destiny of establishing a Jewish theocracy across Judea and Samaria.
They start next year! Is Gen Gamma gonna be next? The generation naming is getting pretty lazy. Maybe a different name will stick, like "Millennial" did instead of "Gen Y".
