wheres the yes because I don't give a **** about religion?

That would be option 1. Because option 2 says "Yes because I care he is atheist" and option 3 says "No because I care she is atheist".....option 1 is the "Yes, religion doesn't affect my political views" choice.

The problem is.. with #1.. it's saying "Yes I would vote BECAUSE I am atheist" not "I would vote because religion means nothing to me"

By that logic, you are saying you would vote for them BECAUSE you don't care about religion.....how is that any different?

 

I honestly don't understand your misunderstanding of options 1.....option 1 states "Yes, IF I have the same political views".....just because two people have the same religious standing doesn't mean they have the same political views....

 

I'm agnostic and I vote for the candidate that I share the most political views with......based on what you said, I am voting on those candidates because they are also agnostic, which obviously they are not.

lol just saw that the pool is broken: option 3 refers to a "she" while the 2nd option refer to a "he".

Year, made a sexist joke out of it. But its really not a sexist but an atheist thing.

OP's next topic: if you're an atheist would you atheist your atheism?

I try to vote for competent leaders; their religious ideology is of little concern to me.

What happens if the candidates worship the Flying Spaghetti Monster or some other exotic cult does that still make them non-religious in your eyes.Ergo what are you counting as a religion?

 

Religion

the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods:

a particular system of faith and worship:

 

Atheist

a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods:

I think it would be more likely that I would vote for someone who is an atheist, but only after I agreed with their political views.

 

No offense to anyone who is religious but I think anyone who believes a man sits in the sky and controls everything is illogical.

Sure, why not, we voted a Muslim into office and didn't elect a Mormon, can't worse than being a Mormon, right?

Well we seem to have drawn the line a Mormons as not good to be President, anything more exotic than that will have a real hard time gaining any traction

      I always thought the moon gets a lot of impact because there’s no atmosphere, so surely building a moon base is only going to end in disaster?

    • Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is heavily used in work and school environments, and perhaps one of its core but extremely useful features is the ability to record meetings. In past years, Microsoft has further improved upon this functionality by integrating AI, but you do need a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to leverage most, if not all, all of those capabilities. Now, the Redmond tech firm is making another significant enhancement in the area of Teams meeting recordings. Up until now, if you wanted to access Teams recordings, you had to arduously locate the meeting invite and navigate to the dedicated tab, or go to the cloud storage location such as a SharePoint site. This was a rather overwhelming activity, especially if you don't remember the name of the meeting or the meeting occurred quite a while ago. Microsoft is now attempting to solve this problem through a dedicated Recap app that consolidates all your recordings. This centralized experience will allow users to find all recordings from the past 30 days and also offer access to other related services such as transcripts and AI-powered summaries. Customers will have the option to search for recordings, filter them, and review multiple meetings by generating AI-powered podcast-style recaps. The Recap app will list all available recordings in both thumbnail and list views. The former is shown below: And here is how Teams users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can select multiple recordings to generate a podcast-style audio recap: Microsoft has emphasized that the Recap app is pre-installed in Teams but it will not be pinned by default. Users will able to navigate to the Teams app store from the left rail, and pin it from the apps section. It will be enabled by default for all users once it becomes available. It's worth noting that while Teams recordings and transcripts can be accessed by all users governed by existing permissions, AI-powered features like intelligent summaries, audio recaps, and video recaps will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. The Recap app will be generally available to Teams users on Windows, Mac, and the web by the end of next month, with mobile support coming soon.
