I'm in my late thirties, but even pre-Internet I never saw one. I think it's simply because my area is mostly Catholic and they would have most likely been tossed instead of kept for ironic value.

Why is that ironic? The man who discovered genetics was a Catholic monk. What would make you believe that Catholics read the bible literally?

I'm just surprised so many of you here have seen and collected Chick Tracts in the wild. I've never seen them off the internet, but that may be because the large majority of my region and culture is snuggling up in the soft warm bosom of the Whore of Babylon.

It pretty much boils down to veneration. Many Protestants see veneration as idol worship so reject the concept of asking for a saint's mediation on one's behalf. But a lot of Protestants do not understand that when Catholics pray to, for example the Virgin Mary, we're not expecting her to answer our prayers. We're…

Oh that's so cool!

I could never figure out why Mormons think that's a selling point in the first place. It's not like other major religions teach that you'll never see your loved ones again in heaven.

Wow, I had no idea Phelps was excommunicated from his church.

All a Catholic needs after a divorce is an annulment. Then they're free to remarry within the Church.

In what major religions are marriage after widowhood considered alduterous?

Fuckin A, man!

I'll say a few Hail Marys for him.

The photo Ford shows Benard is of a white man. Of course, there's always the possibility it wasn't Arnold in the photo.

I'm surprised no one thought of Louisiana. It's hot as shit here in the summer, but you literally can't starve.

Completely agree! I always found the use of the word partner to be pompous. It doesn't help that straight British people refer to their boyfriends and girlfriends as partners. I hate that.

That's an interesting perspective. There are a lot of people on this board (rightfully) arguing that an uploaded consciousness would inherently simply be a copy of the original person. (The Be Right Back scenario.) I had taken this episode's premise at face-value. That the upload is for all intends and purposes the…

I really don't know what to tell you other than I just really hated the ending.

Today there are many, many places in the world where prostitution is perfectly legal. And it's practiced in every place where it's not legal as well. I can't imagine that changing in the future, especially considering that the show isn't giving us much information about the outside world. Aside from the fact that Ford…

I HAVE ONE! IT'S JUST BLACK IS ALL!

Honestly, I think you're overlooking the love she felt for her husband. Which is why she had previously made the decision, faith or no faith, to not stay in San Junipero. I completely understand why she chose to stay, I just think it would have been a better ending otherwise.

I'm really loving your alternate ending.
