The human body is 70% water. The energy required to evaporate all that would wipe out anything you'd get from combusting the organic matter. And it's not like they could leave them out back to dry out like seasoning firewood.

In the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam), having multiple faiths is explicitly forbidden in the Ten Commandments: https://en.m.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(King_James)/Exodus#20:1

2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

And you can see this play out historically: when Christians met peoples of other faiths, they didn't see it as an opportunity for learning and cultural exchange, they saw them as heathens that needed to be proselytized... or eradicated.

Conversely, I feel like Buddhists are the most likely to have other faiths, because Buddhism changed and adapted as it spread throughout Asia, and incorporated elements of the local religions.

It's clear they did not walk out.

By the time I placed my order - paying a 1% fee to the app makers in the process - I would have happily paid double for the experience of simply flipping through a menu and talking to another human being.

(Emphasis mine.) This is from the very next paragraph after what I quoted.

You also clearly missed the point of my comment, which is that unless consumers start refusing to take this bullshit lying down, this stuff will be unavoidable in the future because there will be no other choices left.

That's assuming the employees give enough of a shit to pass the feedback on to the owners, and that the owners give enough of a shit to listen.

Yeah, it's better if you make it known why you're not giving them your business, but if it doesn't appreciably impact their revenue then most owners won't care either way.

My phone struggled to load the site to order a single cold brew, pop-ups to install the custom App kept obscuring the options, and I had to register with my phone number, email address, and first and last name to buy a $5 cup of coffee.

Then walk out. Don't reward the bullshit with your money. The coffee shop ain't gonna give a shit if you keep buying coffee just to go home and complain on your blog.

Fortunately, most of my family is so tech illiterate that even if a real video got out, I could just tell them it's a deepfake and they'd probably believe me.
