Although I would not let just anyone torture me if the choice was mine, this worldview entails that I should be able to suffer torture for an ultimately good cause.

It follows from my previous comment that the only way to torture is to make something wrong, and I would not let you do that.

But that was a serious question. What is a people’s case against suffering?

I read something about them (mainly in Wikipedia), and I see some parallels in artistic style or symbolism, but I don’t see a substantial parallel in their stories, although I didn’t find much about the story of Sol Invictus. I don’t see that someone was nursed as a significant parallel because almost every human was nursed.

I focused on parallels in their stories because I don’t see parallels in the style of art depicting them as problematic to Christianity. But most of your previous comment was about artistic depictions, so, if you think that they are problematic, please, explain that more in details.

Which earlier sun gods does Jesus’s life story have parallels with?

Why do people dislike suffering so much? I understand it as an indicator of that something is wrong. So trying to eliminate suffering without figuring out what causes it is like fighting global warming by destroying thermometers in my perspective.

I think that suffering in this life is not ultimately significant, although it has ultimately significant causes. For every person, suffering in this life fits into one of these cases (from a Christian perspective considering also other worldviews):

• If the person ceases to exist, the suffering is forgotten, and there is noone who would experience any suffering.
• If the person goes to heaven, all causes of suffering are resolved.
• If the person goes to hell, there is suffering regardless of suffering in this life. Although not that hell is bad because there is suffering; there is suffering because it is bad (in various ways).
• If the person reincarnates, previous suffering is forgotten, although there may be some karma according to which past lives affect future lives, so buddhists try to reach nirvana, which is similar to the second case.

Knot is just nautical mile per hour, so it can be simplified so:

π miles = e nautical miles

Right. But monospacedness is not a requirement for programming fonts. So I often promote proportional fonts for programming because they are better IMO. I mean that variable width allows fonts more potential to be good at what I want from fonts, not that every proportional font of better.

Ideally, texture healing would distribute the resizing over the whole word, so it would look better and be used in more cases. But that is not possible with OpenType fonts as far as I know.

Commit Mono has smart kerning, which is similar, but it only shifts, not morphs, the shapes. So it avoids that the same letter looks differently in different places. It also works on triplets, not just pairs, so it is more widely applicable. See this comparison.

I Like Input Sans for programming. iA Writer Quattro is similar to that. Now, I use for programming Recursive, a variable font with variable monospacedness among others. It has a configurator where all axes and features can be fixed for better compatibility.

I prefer original Comic Sans. How Comic Mono has all characters forced to the same width makes it uglier and less readable, especially capital letters.
