"I don't condone hitting as a means of discipline as there are better ways to get your point across"
Who are you trying to fool? Hitting is not an answer to unruly children, and they don't always listen to reason. Why are you acting blind to my post?

I had a crappy childhood so I made sure I was super involved with my ex’s kids because he couldn’t care less. Now that we’ve split, the boys mom still lets me see them because they love me and she appreciates everything I did/do for them.

So you think abusive parents should be appreciated then??? Because that’s the only thing that I can read from this.

I don't want to bother you because you're clearly uninterested but all I am saying is that keeping our body and memories is not enough to be immortal, it's not even the main requirement, you need to believe you always had that body or memories.

7 is slightly taller than 1 and 4, but shorter than the rest.

Yeah. But a lot of times science is like “whoa, that’s freaky! I wonder why that happens”

Thanks! I wish people actually read the comments before posting. Then they’d know plenty of people already corrected me
Edit: also I wish people wouldn’t take me so literally. I’m not trying to say early photographers were cowering in fear at the thought of demons.
And on top of that, even if the literal “first” people to see it knew, it doesn’t mean they knew to inform consumers. They may have though, “eh, they’ll be smart enough to not freak out” and then maybe consumers freaked out.

If you have a SO that doesn’t appreciate you before you’re gone, you have the wrong SO.

Yeah no problem! I see you’re getting downvoted for asking the question… sometimes human beings don’t know things until they ask. Happy to share some insight! It’s definitely the angle of the light/flash.

I’m not taking about drawing conclusions. I’m talking about immediate gut reaction.

I’m not trying to say everyone was superstitious. Like, I don’t mean 100% believing someone is possessed and cowering in fear. More like “what the hell is with your eyes”

I would assume they would test it on more than just one person and not draw the conclusion from that.
