"The initial question is farcical. State oversight of prostitution or
not, he still cheated on his wife and bragged about it compounding the
stupidity."
I realize that some people are angry at Lloyd Evans' beard. And others are repulsed by the dent in his wall. And many more would have been angry at his unfaithfulness to his wife. But I thought the overwhelming outrage was due to him making use of people with a good chance of being exploited while claiming to be an advocate against CSA.

Would you still be angry with Lloyd Evans ?
by BettyHumpter inif instead of thailand, he had gone to a place where its legal and (supposedly) has some sort of oversight to prevent exploitation?
like nevada in the u.s or amsterdam in europe?
would the being unfaithful part still be a deal breaker as far as supporting his channel?

"Whether it is legal in the country that he frequents sex workers is pretty much irrelevant."
My point with that was that if it's a legal establishment, then presumably it would have some sort of state oversight and therefore less likely to be exploiting women against their will. -

"Big dent on the wall"
That's some fine detective work. Maybe is we slow the video down we may also be able to find a leaf that he tracked in and 'expose' that too. -

"Luke chapter 12 : 47,48 parable shows people will be judged based upon their understanding."
Yes. Which means the best way to help those who have never heard about Jesus and sin is to not tell them.

"oh--ok. But if you dont believe in all that i guess youre a gonner."
Eskimo: "If I did not know about Jesus and sin, would I still be condemned?"
Priest: "No, not if you did not know."
Eskimo: "Then why did you tell me?" -

since just about everyone, (including Hitler I suppose) who dies before Armageddon gets a free pass to the safe and secure new system
But don't you think what so horrible about Hitler (and others like him) is that he ended so many people's lives prematurely? As an atheist, that's the horror of it to me. He had some 'ideas' and therefore ended the one and only life that those millions of people will ever have.
If there is an eternal afterlife whether in a paradise earth or in heaven with God or something else, then anything bad that may have happened on this brief blip of time here on Earth is irrelevant and therefore loses any impact compared to the millions, trillions, quadrillions of years ahead.If this life is just a layover on the way to an eternity of eternal bliss then why does it really matter if Hitler was a naughty boy?

"The Bible says you reap what you sow...but I think a lot don't believe that applies to them or else they would treat others better."
Yeah, it says that,and sometimes it's true, but unless there is an afterlife where one faces consequences (i don't believe there is one) then history is full of examples of people having a grand happy time in their own life via stepping on and being atrocious to their fellow man. -

Free Will - Does It or Does It Not Exist?
by truth_b_known inbeing born-in and raised as one of jehovah's witnesses i remember a common theme or phrases used by the watchtower in its theory of why things are the way they are -.
jehovah created humans.
jehovah created humans as free moral agents.

I'm not sure it does. I think at the instant of the big bang every subatomic particle was going wherever it was going and from that point on it was like a break on a giant billiards table. Everything, including me, my parents, Julius Caesar, ladies basketball and even Lloyd Evans was inevitable from that point. Certain billiard balls combing in a certain way bouncing off another, causing the other to bounce off the other and on and on.
But we have no way of knowing the current or starting position of every subatomic particle, so whether all history was ordained in that instant or not doesn't matter except as a mildly depressing thought exercise. It feels like we have free will, so we should pretend we do.
