For buffet restaurants, tipping servers who clear multiple dishes and
provide drink refills is recommended. Some persons may tip buffet servers $
1 per diner, others as much as 5 to 10 percent of the total pre-tax bill,
depending upon the level of service provided. Buffet servers may not take

people are sometimes called transsexual if they desire medical assistance

Being transgender is independent of sexual orientation; transgender

Chronic kidney disease is staged depending on the severity. The severity

是mind/thought altering必须的.
需要转变他人思想,原本的价值观,世界观,而试图灌输的新体系缺少hard data 来支持(
如果有hard data,facts, 就不会是信仰,而是存在我们的教科书里,成为science的一部
分了),是一种intangible的东西, mind altering的方法是必须的.(单纯的讲述新体系
是无效的,就象网上传教,很少成效,因为非基价值观基础都很完整,看JDJ的道理,越讲越
荒谬,越邪恶.)
这种办法,共产党用,传销用,各种cults都用.
仔细比较下,overlap很多.
1.宣扬高到做不到的标准,guilt induction.
共产主义"大公无私",JDJ"爱人如己,动淫念即犯奸淫,世人皆罪".
这样的反复,让被转化对象感到inadequate,guilt,unworthiness,这样动摇被转化对象
自信,对原本的思想体系的坚持被削弱,也就是JDJ常说的把刚硬的心"谦卑"下来.这样,
旧的被削弱,新的才好建立.

When we are considering the possibilities of underlying historical elements

Let’s set those problems aside for a moment, though, and suppose that

processes would give rise to life in the time-frame that evolution theorists
say that this has happened.
