  1. So anyone who has been to Thailand, but hasn't been to Phuket or Pattaya, cannot be an idiot?
  2. Does the news always give an accurate description of what a group of people is really like?
  3. This is just silly. Obviously these things are minor. You know this. "Religion has had a powerful effect on the development of our societies and should not be completely written off." "Ahh, but, blah blah blah, pork and crustations!" 🙄 How is progress not a negative thing? Progress can be negative.
  4. Social norms in the West come partly from Christianity, from a book, and Western social norms affected the development of that book.
  5. I mean modern Western culture.
  6. The way things are going does not support this theory.
  7. Created isn't bad. It was created and developed over thousands of years. Our Western culture is intertwined with it and each evolved with the other. It's also full of interesting stories and metaphors that help people know how to live a good life.
  8. I know a lot of people don't like it, but religion was created for a reason, and generally has a lot of decent advice. Many of the problems we have now in society, are due to people being liberal and progressive.
  9. Swap the wheel then get the clamp cut off later.
  10. I'm not sure about the deaths, but the severity of the symptoms are important when deciding if it is something to worry about. If it's no worse than flu, and no more prevalent, it's really nothing to worry about, imo. 🤷‍♂️
  11. Probably because, with a foreigner present, the risk of "bad covid" (the type that a foreigner gets) would just be too high to risk.
  12. I think the reason people have an issue with it is precisely because it isn't a case of common sense. If there isn't any real reason to wear masks (outside of pollution), but people do, it seems kind of daft. Then you've got the issue of some Thais only wearing a mask around foreigners. It's really a case of alarmism/hysteria, with a hint of racism.
  13. That depends on what the symptoms are like. How many flu "related" deaths have their been in that time period? Yup. Masks and lockdowns for the rest of time. 🙄
