This is just from last week, but somehow it has been missed. In similar but only slightly related news, it looks like United Methodist membership is shrinking drastically, while Global Methodist numbers are growing. Homosexuality is not as popular as they want everyone to believe.

Archive of an AP article. Apparently they capitalize every skin color sans White, but are unable to capitalize article titles.

"DALLAS (AP) — Southern Baptist delegates at their national meeting overwhelmingly endorsed a ban on same-sex marriage — including a call for a reversal of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 10-year-old precedent legalizing it nationwide.
They also called for legislators to curtail sports betting and to support policies that promote childbearing.
The votes Tuesday came at the gathering of more than 10,000 church representatives at the annual meeting of the nation’s largest Protestant denomination."

Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link.. If you already know what's going on, you probably don't need to. That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Upgoat.net go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, ask a regular participant (such as @TheRealBuddha or myself)

If you already know what's going on, you probably don't need to click any of those links. You can still visit to see if any changes have been made, as that's also where we kept the archives and have a second forum.

By the way, we're down to just two of us. If you want to help, let us know.

First time poster, long time lurker.

I have only lurked any sites since Voat went down. I did participate in the decentralized nodes when Voat first went down, but didn't commit to any of the websites (I really wanted decentralized to work, since it fixes so many issues with communities like ours). Here we are, years later, and it appears that Upgoat is the site that emerged from the ashes as the best option. I don't normally do introduction posts, but since it's an option here instead of an arbitrary requirement I figured it was worth the time.

inb4 jew, nigger kike-faggot etc.
Glad to see that upgoat isn't the ONLY option we have, and that there are smaller options linked to from time to time. Every bit helps.

It's just not clear why this is important, please ignore that /s

Iran’s Misrule vs. Turkey’s Influence:

Iran’s decline is driven by its theocratic regime, where incompetent leadership enforces oppressive laws. Women face jail for not wearing mandatory hijabs, a symbol of the regime’s rigid control. This, alongside economic mismanagement, has left Iran globally dismissed and isolated.

Turkey, by contrast, commands respect from the EU due to its secular framework. In Istanbul, women enjoy EU-like freedoms, dressing freely and living without religious mandates. This separation of church and state bolsters Turkey’s stability and influence, allowing leaders like Erdogan to wield significant power while maintaining international credibility.

Iran’s failure to modernize explains its irrelevance, while Turkey’s pragmatic governance elevates its global standing.
