United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Trust in people? And what do people do? Have you seen what we are doing in Ukraine and Gaza? Have you seen what atrocities we have committed in the past? You don't need to know God to know morality, as we know the difference between right and wrong due to Eden, yet we willingly do wrong. For our own selfish gain. Humans are inherently selfish and flawed. The reason why we need a saviour makes perfect sense.
Actually that just shows exactly why we don't need a savior in any sense. If a savior were in fact real, and was in fact meant to save us from ourselves - why isn't he/she doing their job? Why should it be some god's job to protect us from ourselves? It never has, and it never will.
We should spend much less on superstitious beliefs and more time investing in working toward peace. It won't happen from "on high." It happens from the ground on up.
We have been saved. And our salvation is not of this earth. For God so loved the world that He sent His one and only son - that whosoever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have eternal life.
We will never manage to achieve peace on earth. And putting away "superstitious beliefs" will just make your life very short. You can still work for peace and be a Christian, as well. I don't see why it needs to be one or the other.
It's a very nice thought and if that is what works for you that's great. As long as you find peace and love along the way, that really is what matters most of all.
