    It’s kind of hard to tell for this image, I think the background is probably real, or at least, created separately. but there are a couple sus features in the foreground. Superman’s right hand, the green jacket, and the apparent facial features of children I mentioned before.

    It does have a signature in the bottom right, so I guess you could track down the artist to find out for sure, but with my first comment, I was just pointing out the comedy of kids with facial hair.






  • I feel like faith provides a disproportionate of comfort compared to guidance. People take the parts of religion they agree with, and discard the rest. I actually think this is good practice, but it becomes an issue when they use the affirmation of the broader religion to justify their actions.

    A moral compass is something you have to find for yourself, and acknowledge that it is not backed up or justified by any other entity than yourself.

    For me, I’ve found a good starting point is the TST tenets. Compared to the 10 commandments, they are much more broad. I can use them as a lens to analyze a variety of different situations and organize my thoughts and feelings.

    But that doesn’t mean that I use TST to justify my actions, the tenets are my tools of introspection. Heck, the 7th tenet even acknowledges that the tenets are only guiding principles and seems to encourage finding your own morals.
