And did English also borrow it from Urdu/Hindi?
Cerberus

@CowperKettle Cool, they borrowed it directly from Urdu?
Cerberus
yst 04:07
@CowperKettle I wonder how long that lasted...

I totally wasn't sure of purple.

@jlliagre Well done!

@CowperKettle OK but those are very expensive, usually their capacity is small compared to the total generation of energy?
Cerberus
Mon 17:26
I thought it might be for yesterday's game.
Cerberus
Mon 17:13
So I knew what category to expect for one.
Cerberus
Mon 17:13
But I must admit I had hovered over Grateful's spoiler.

@M.A.R. Whaaat, theocrats, corrupt??
Cerberus
Mon 17:11
@M.A.R. That makes perfect sense.
Cerberus
Mon 16:47
@Robusto I suppose it makes sense, I didn't even think of that.
Cerberus
Mon 16:43
@Robusto Oh, did you pick SPOILER?
Cerberus
Mon 16:42
Yeah.
Cerberus
Mon 16:41
Was that the Lycée?
Cerberus
Mon 16:41
So it is possible. But extreme.
Cerberus
Mon 16:40
And 50% is the max, half of the world's circumference off.
Cerberus
Mon 16:40
Err I said it wrong, it's more like 40%.
Cerberus
Mon 16:38
@Robusto But that is more like 60% of the world, how is that even possible?
Cerberus
Mon 16:33
Oh but you were 16,000 km off, that is also quite a feat.
Cerberus
Mon 16:32
I mean, I was 29 years off on the second one. I'm sure I could have done better there.
Cerberus
Mon 16:32
Just not good for your score.
Cerberus
Mon 16:32
Speculate.
Cerberus
Mon 16:32
But it's fun to talk about the photo together.
Cerberus
Mon 16:31
Exactly.
Cerberus
Mon 16:31
But I also kind of wasn't concentrating and was under pressure to finish it fast with him.
Cerberus
Mon 16:30
I kind of did it with a friend.
Cerberus
Mon 16:30
@Robusto Well done.

Then I am surprised at those batteries, where/what are they?
Cerberus
Mon 15:01
No, if it says "utility"?
Cerberus
Mon 15:01
@CowperKettle Hmm are the batteries in electric cars?
Cerberus
Mon 06:04
@Robusto Quite so, but how infallible were their priests?
Cerberus
Mon 05:52
@Robusto I wonder to what extent Zoroastrianism considered itself infallible.
Cerberus
Mon 05:51
@M.A.R. Oh, how very clumsily.
Cerberus
Mon 04:49
Kramer used many existing hateful superstitions and existing brutal practices of persecution.
Cerberus
Mon 04:48
The witch hunts were not completely dissimilar from various other prosecutions instigated by the Church that were known at the time, nor were they completely unrelated to the superstitions spread by the Church.
Cerberus
Mon 04:45
Well, it is what I said from the beginning.
Cerberus
Mon 04:42
My point is that a case can be made for holding the doctrines and practices of the Church partly responsible for the fertile soil in which fell the Hammer of Witches.
Cerberus
Mon 04:41
@alphabet That is a different question, I would say.
Cerberus
Mon 04:35
Religion is not only a stick with which bad people hit others; its doctrines full of hatred have an intrinsic effect as well.
Cerberus
Mon 04:34
@alphabet To some extent; even so, I can't imagine the Cathars being massacred without the Church's hatred.
Cerberus
Mon 04:33
You could be executed as an heretic in a manner similar to how you could be executed as a witch or as a Protestant.
Cerberus
Mon 04:32
I don't follow.
Cerberus
Mon 04:30
Why would you say it was "completely unrelated"?
Cerberus
Mon 04:30
@alphabet Not being Christians? Many of the persecuted considered themselves Christians.
Cerberus
Mon 04:29
If the Church had not normalised this type of persecution of civilians, perhaps the witch hunts would not have caught on so easily.
Cerberus
Mon 04:29
So what I meant is that the Church already has a history of spreading hatred towards minorities who caused no harm, and also of brutal persecution.
