@RandomSprint For the record, I'm not afraid of oblivion. I'm afraid they forgot to terminate before going home for the weekend and now we're stuck in here until they get back.

The Civil War wasn't fought over slavery. It wasn't fought over "state's rights." It wasn't fought at all. The universe was instantiated in March 2020 to test quarantine strategies and supply chain disruptions. Everything before that date is elaborate, irrelevant backstory.

During a Dave Matthews Band concert at Giants Stadium, New Jersey, Dave Matthews improvises a lyric, “let it rain,” and at that very moment, a downpour begins. It’s a nationally-reported divine coincidence.

@jkimballcook This is true in the same sense that Mohammedans are Christian heretics, too.

@memeticsisyphus I wonder how opinions on this correlate with the red/blue button scenario. Anyone with some reach want to make a poll?

You’re standing in a long line at the deli. A guy walks in behind you, shifts to your left to walk next to the line and slides in front of the guy several people ahead of you. An urban planner reminds you that really is the most efficient way of managing a line.

@StevenStubble @Mormonger This doesn't really work because we (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) don't accuse other Christians of worshipping the wrong Jesus. Instead, you could have them say something about apostasy.

when a person or text is pioneering a new area of religious or spiritual ideas, they often invent words. my two favorites are probably "absonite", from the urantia book: being halfway between absolute and finite, and "telestial" (mormon), being between terrestrial and celestial

Wilson splits one character into 2 different characters. Eteoneus son of Boethoös becomes both 'Eteoneus' and 'Boethoedes'. As if to reinforce this baffling mistranslation, Eteoneus and Boetheodes are listed in the glossary as different people.

I've been following the "Christopher Nolan used Emily Wilson's translation of the Odyssey" story but I felt like I just didn't have the grounding to judge if Wilson's translation was good or bad So I talked with a friend who speaks Ancient Greek to see what the scholarly world thought of it

i think that if some bizarro-theocracy took over and declared that we could keep the internet, but devices with internet can only display text and images of text, it would be an interesting potential path out of our accidental techno-phone enslavement.

Christians— I’m in search of followers of Jesus Christ on X who: Are NOT members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints… But DO consider Latter-day Saints to be fellow Christians. If that is you, explain why you view Latter-day Saints as Christians below👇

@ArchangeloRom @punished_bobda And calling something impossible doesn't make it illogical. Your argument is that an infinite regress is impossible because it's impossible to traverse an infinite sequence of events. But that's just begging the question.
