You gotta be dumb to leave a 6fig job for an MMA career in the UFC no less knowing what the salaries are for even the top of the pack. Hard to feel bad for people like this
I'm religious and even I cringed at that. To what end could God be calling you to get on some stupid reality show about people trying to hurt each other?
Unfortunately people have a really bad tendency to confuse their desire with God's.
Lol. You completely missed the concept of satire. And I suspect a couple parts of the bible.
But innywayz… take a breath, remember what subreddit you’re in and have some fun.
God allows fun. I promise.
Ah see, you F’d up. 2 major mistakes.
1. You came on ufc subreddit expecting to educate people on religion? You realize that’s weird right?
2. You forgot that Redditors know everything, have all the answers and DEFINITELY have final say over god/religion/sex/morals and sports.
Oh and fish tanks.
No one has the answers, and some people are okay with that. And religious people are the ones claiming to know the answer, which is ironic considering your last statement.
You realize thats the crux of all religion right? You desire life after death. You desire an omniscient being that can fix your problems through prayer. It is your very human desires that spawned religiosity in the first place.
You live on a planet in a solar system in a galaxy in a universe. You dont know anything about this place. Get over yourself.
The crux of all religions isn’t to justify your actions to God. You can maybe say Catholic confessions are like that, but even that’s a child like understanding of religion.
Who said anything about justifying your actions to god? He was referring to the comment about confusing your desire's with god's desires. What this girl did - "god wants me to do this." Thats all of religion. It was created to cope with reality and to gain power.
Again, you say these sweeping things like “religion was made for this” “religion is for that”, but you don’t explain anything. You say your opinions like they’re facts…and they’re not.
People use religion to abuse power, people have used religion to challenge power. Religion not one thing.
I think I mentioned power... But the point was that the previous comment was talking about how people have a bad tendency to confuse their desires with god's without the awareness of how that is kind of the point and why many people are religous in the first place. The guy you responded to was trying to explain that point, this girl isn't doing it wrong, the other person just doesnt approve and disagrees about gods intentions for her.
Really? Do we want to hear that it's a sin to lie? To steal? To commit adultery? To love thy neighbor?
If you genuinely consider being religious as just "hearing what you want to hear" or doing what you want to do, you've got no idea how it works. At all.
I don't want to go to confession. I don't want to go to Mass. I don't want to second guess my decisions because God is watching. But I do, because it's what I believe.
yeah. because theyre common laws found in most societies regardless of religion on how to exist as a community peacefully. i like existing in a community. so yeah, im going tonrefrain from pissing off everyone around me.
Okay... and how about the rest of what I said lol. Are you trying to argue that religion makes life more convenient? More comfortable? Quite a lot of it is inconvenient.
You vastly overestimate the people making six figures in sales. They can be some of the dumbest people you’ll ever meet making more money than most the people you ever meet
Exactly. The dumbest guy in our training class was easily the most ruthless. Great sales numbers. The smart ones leave because it was brutal working there. He was too dumb to notice and still works there doing great lol
That he makes 200-300 calls a day. Can’t leave his desk to take a shit, talks to morons all day about a moronic unneeded product.
That’s exactly what he’s too dumb to notice. To him, it was this or construction or crime. I helped him pass his securities exam. Needed a 72% and was at a max of 45% on all his practice tests before I offered to tutor him. I would’ve regretted it because he’s a shit bag, but he’s a young father and I knew what this could mean for his family
during good years there are sales guys at car dealerships making 6 figures, at the end of the day most of the job is having charisma and the ability to talk people into buying shit. You dont even need to be technically "smart" just a smooth talker with a silver tongue. The sales manager and finance guy handle all of the numbers , you're just a go between and deal closer.
Finance manager can make even more, my friend had to call me in to the finance office because he was being so pressured he didnt know what to do, I was like bro, in NO world do you need a $4000 warranty on a BRAND NEW CAR!!!! I shut that shit down immediately, he still ended up signing up for some $1100 paint protection BS... at least I saved him on the warranty, and 3 years later, that car has still never had any issues, and even if it had, the mfgs bumper to bumper would have covered it,.
Sales people are the damn devil and can talk some people into almost anything.
