What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

This is so fucking stupid because doesn't he tell people all the time on his call show that its fine for them to "shack up" and not be married? Different advice for the public audience to people he knows in real life. How odd.

He also tells people they "have to" tithe when they're debating cutting it to make their budget feasible.

What a prat

[–] stsquad@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

Is that even remotely legal?

[–] platypode@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

At will employment means either the employee or the employer can terminate the employment at any time for any reason, provided it isn’t discriminatory or retaliatory, so unless you can argue premarital sex havers are a protected demographic, it’s completely legal.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

Pretty sure you can argue freedom of religion

[–] phailhaus@piefed.social 4 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

If your religion requires premarital sex, you can argue that. Freedom of religion and freedom from religion are not the same thing.

Satanism to the rescue!

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

Yes, but not with the current courts

[–] radix@lemmy.world 8 points 1 hour ago

But it protects the company's freedom of religion.

Private employers in this country (including Ramsey) have more rights than workers.

Then the current courts are illegitimate.

Have been forever

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

We must argue that it's discriminatory against sex havers

[–] djdarren@piefed.social 3 points 1 hour ago

Everything in the US is legal provided you're wealthy enough, or "Christian" enough.

A Wall Street guy is a piece of shit? No way! Say it isn’t so.

[–] bizarroland@lemmy.world 20 points 2 hours ago

This is what they mean when they use the term "virtue signaling".

[–] fireweed@lemmy.world 12 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

"Rave Ramsey" makes him sound too cool

[–] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 2 points 1 hour ago

I would expect someone called Rave Ramsey to be pan, chill and certainly not concerned with Christian Fundamentalist morality.
