@LastFraction0 @BlueDaoPi @samstein Your link isn't working but I'll take your word for it. Hopefully they'll make changes or have valid reasons ie security concerns so they're limiting entrances since it's to entertain high level guests.

@QuitKickin @BlueDaoPi @samstein There's no entrance on the column platform in the design documents:
cfa.gov/system/files/m…
Pages 23, 26, and 27.
The only entrances indicated on that face are at ground-level on either side of the grand staircase.

@KalaDeeDee @BibleInContext1 @michaeljknowles I do, the same usage of until is found in John 9:18. Where are you finding the word never? blueletterbible.org/kjv/mat/1/1/
English
Again you are interpreting til using modern meaning and not 1st c meaning.
The biblicak word is εως and its 1st century meaning is ‘even beyond’
Such as when Christ says ‘I am with you always even til the end of the age.’ It means forever
Other examples:
During the narrative of the ark it was said that “the raven did not return until the earth was dried up,” yet the raven did not return even after that limited time. Second, when discussing God the Scripture says, “You are from everlasting to everlasting,” but there is no implication here that some limit is being fixed—rather the opposite.
To understand scripture according to the authors who wrote it one must use their 1stc AD language meanings and not modern age meanings.
Using biblical language context Matthew 1:25 literally says Joseph never ’knew’ her.
English
I agree with the Bible’s view! Mary honored her marriage vows with Joseph and consummated their marriage!
Why do Catholics dishonor Mary and why does she have to be a virgin for your Catholic theology to operate?
@michaeljknowles let’s set up a charitable conversation!
Michael Knowles@michaeljknowles
When it comes to the perpetual virginity of Mary, do you agree with the Catholic view or with the view of Protestant reformers Martin Luther, Ulrich Zwingli, and John Wesley?
English
It’s not ignored. It is fully understood in the ancient apostolic faith. The biblical Greek word gyneika does not mean ‘wife’ as used in modern times. It means simply woman or lady. (As in gynecology). Note Christ uses the same word at Cana when Mary calls Him into His ministry. He says ‘ “Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come.”
The text is fully understood in the Orthodox faith- which is from the Greek Orthodox faith based on the original Greek scriptures & language. All 6000 ancient texts are Greek Orthodox bible’s & manuscripts.
There is no wedding of Joseph & Mary except in the modern minds of some Protestants. Note the wedding feast at Cana was a proper wedding. There is no such wedding for Joseph & Mary.

@samstein The door is behind the pillar. You can see it if you zoom in. Also it looks like there is another door to the right.

@redheadranting I think it was a great success! It worked, we don't have any Kings. On a more serious note it just feels like mass propaganda. There was a very small showing in my area but the media is saying thousands showed up w/ only close up group shots.
English
Can someone explain to me what all the No Kings festivals accomplished? Did anyone change parties or their ideology because of them? Was anyone persuaded to join them?

They NEVER married. And this has nothing to do with the Roman Catholic Church. It is early church knowledge from the full theological , spiritual & historical context of God. You are suggesting sexual relations in the house of the living God where the Lord lived & that Joseph would have touched Mary the ark of the visible God even though he knew Uzzah was struck dead from touching the ark of the invisible God. And you are denying what Arch Gabriel quoted to Mary - Psalm 91: she is overshadowed by God. Read the psalm: protected by God like a shield, elevated by angels, preserved in all her ways.
Once God was with Mary, the gate was shut. All passions are below the godly.
English
@michaeljknowles Someone square this for me. Knowles says that wives have a biblical duty to their husbands. Why is it okay for Mary to deny her husband?

@savanah2j Its the country club of gyms. If you just want to work out I would recommend anywhere else near you.
English
Look I’m very into health and fitness there’s a lifetime gym opening by my house and I was planning on getting a membership, starting price is $339 per month. Doesn’t that seem a little steep or am I just outta touch because I haven’t paid for a gym in a long time??

@INTERIORPORN1 @grok what is happening in the picture

@runaway_vol Generally, it raisies property values which in turn raises property tax. This can make a once affordable home now unaffordable and force individuals to move to lesser areas. This is happening in my area but it's a rural area that is getting turned into a jammed packed suburba.

why is gentrification considered “bad”, it makes areas much nicer with better shops and friendlier people

@Bad_Fawkes @AeonCoin @Insanegame2025 @supertrucker Many businesses put this into action immediately regardless of the 5 year period. I watched my friends go from one full time job with overtime to working 2 to 3 part time jobs.
English
@AeonCoin @Insanegame2025 @supertrucker I'm certain that the low level manager covering the night shift was fully versed in the phased implementation and exactly when the new requirements would be implemented.
They definitely weren't told "just don't let anyone go over X hours until we figure this out"

I was shopping inside of a Walmart the night it passed. They made an announcement over the OA system that all part-time employees that were going to go over 21 hours of work that they needed to clock out and go home.
Barack Obama@BarackObama
The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time. The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more. But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.
English
@InezFeltscher Don't forget what it did to jobs as a whole. Many companies had to do mass layoffs or drop people to part time due to ACA forcing the 30hr rule. That's why you have to have 2 part time jobs or side gigs now.
English
For the kids who are too young to remember, you used to be able to get basically full, complete coverage above a max of $5,000 (aka “catastrophic coverage”) for 90 bucks a month before Obama made it “affordable.”
Chris Pappas@ChrisPappasNH
The ACA was signed into law 16 years ago today, bringing health care coverage to millions of Americans. But now, 22 million Americans are struggling to afford health insurance because Donald Trump and Senate Republicans refused to extend the ACA tax credits, which could drive families into crippling debt. I won’t stand for these attacks because every American deserves access to high-quality, affordable health care.

@JPL606 @BlondeOfWar Whoa, I'm not sure why you are getting so upset about making fun of Target for putting out such poorly designed clothes.

@BlondeOfWar In the day and age of people struggling to put food on their plates- the fat bitch denigrating affordable clothing in this video isn’t the win you think it is. She would like trash in couture Prada. Let’s be clear.

@BarackObama You destroyed Healthcare and the ability to work over 40 hours trapping millions into multiple part time jobs.

You’re watching a science fiction movie about humans quickly developing interstellar travel fuelled by a fictional alien microorganism, and where the main character meets a rock-like alien and you’re hung up on the fact he was able to develop translation software? Give over!
