A horrible game. This game was made as a replacement for an older game which was basically a game called Changed but on roblox. And Changed is a furry fetish game.

This definition shows an absurd and extreme, but illuminating example of how the loser in the presidential election can have an arbitrarily high percentage of the popular votes compared to the winner, i.e., way more then 5 or 10 percent.
Suppose there are 540 electoral votes. Divide the states into two groups, one having 271 votes, the other 269. Suppose in the "271" states, only 1 person in each state votes Democrat, 0 Republican. Suppose in the "269" states, 0 vote Democrat, millions Republican. Then by the electoral college majority, the democrats win but the Republicans have a million times more votes than the Democrats.

In the 2012 presidential election, it initially appeared that we might have an electoral college paradox. But the Democratic popular vote came back up and it was avoided.

Get the electoral college paradox mug.The " Christian persecution paradox" refers to the phenomenon whereby the more arguments you wage against a Christian that their actions are wrong or even un-Christian, the more convinced Christians are that their actions are correct and Biblical.
"And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake (Mathew 24:9)."
This verse is the main problem. If a Christian does anything in the name of their religion and people react negatively to it, they take it as prophetic proof that they are true Christians. If you protest soldiers funerals in the name of God and people protest you, well, this proves you are a true Christian because you are being "persecuted". If you bomb an abortion clinic, if you violate the establishment clause, if you talk poorly about Jews, and people react negatively, then it's proof you're a true Christian. I bet if some Christian slept with goats and the rancher who owned them got mad, the Christian who slept with goats would say that the rancher's anger is prophetic evidence that the Christian was doing the Lord's work.

Wisconsin passed a law requiring mega-churches to pay taxes on their multi-million dollar income, and Evangelical Christians were more convinced than ever that they were True Christians because they suffer from a persecution paradox. -or - Westboro Baptist Church thinks they are doing God's work protesting soldier's funerals because the complaining survivors of the fallen soldier fuel Westboro Baptist's Christian persecution paradox.
