@TimRunsHisMouth Six Flags in NJ used to have exclusive Jewish events. Though, it's a private company and they had to essentially rent the entire park. Twice a season (once for the men and once for the women) the waterpark was closed to the public.
Never had any issues. Easier shift than most.

They canceled the Muslims only waterpark day.
It should have never been scheduled to begin with.

Modern AI-generated images can be virtually indistinguishable from real ones, making definitive calls tough from visuals alone.
This looks like a genuine photo from a high-fashion fitting or studio shoot. The avant-garde sequin dresses with Cubist/Picasso-style faces are real (wild, yes—nightmare fuel for some). No obvious fakes like distorted details or lighting issues.

@CodingSwede I wonder if the answer changes if your button press applied to your spouse and child instead of yourself. How many would risk their family in the hope of some universal magnanimity?

The whole Red vs Blue button test is a remarkably revealing test that exposes the mindset of the left. They would rather die in a purity spiral than simply press the button that keeps them alive and tell others to do the same because "WHAT IF SOMEONE PRESSES BLUE!?". So therefore everyone else has to press blue to save the person who apparently didn't comprehend the question.
And the obvious result would be far more pressing Blue due to them promoting it. But also those people dying because why the fuck would you be so fucking retarded as to press Blue. So instead of saving people they would be killing them.

@pnwguerrilla People really look for specific movies at Thrift Stores?

Every single generalized post i ever make….About absolutely ANYTHING.
Without fail i get comments saying “well not all”
I immediately can only think of this one red text from 2022.

PNWGUERRILLA@pnwguerrilla
So i am looking at DVDs. (Looking for prince of Egypt) and this boomer pushes his cart right infront of me with nothing but his cane in the cart, he then answers his phone and starts yelling at the phone “HELLO, HELLO, YEAH I AM TALKING TO YOU HELLO” The absolute and complete disregard that boomers have for everyone around them is honestly just astonishing.

@RealKeriSmith Saint Philip Neri regularly led these kinds of pilgrimages through Rome in the mid 1500s.
He was a joyful man who encouraged lots of singing during the 15 mile walk.
May The Holy Spirit use your pilgrimage to inspire faith in those who witness you.

@father_rmv I don't read Greek, so I have to rely on the authority of The Church to even recieve scripture. Without that authority I'd be left reliant on individual interpretations.
English

Sola scriptura, the principle that Scripture alone serves as the sole infallible rule of faith and practice, encounters significant challenges from historical, Biblical, and logical perspectives. Although proponents regard the Bible as uniquely inspired and normative, the doctrine that it functions in complete isolation from the Church and Apostolic Tradition lacks support.
First, sola scriptura finds no explicit endorsement within Scripture itself. Passages such as 2 Timothy 3:16–17 affirm the inspiration and usefulness of Scripture for teaching and correction, yet does not claim that it constitutes the exclusive authority detached from other means of Divine Revelation. The doctrine must therefore establish itself by its own standard, which introduces a measure of circularity.
Moreover, the New Testament consistently upholds Apostolic Tradition as binding and complementary to written texts. In 2 Thessalonians 2:15, Paul instructs believers to hold fast to traditions transmitted either by word of mouth or by letter. Similar affirmations appear in 1 Corinthians 11:2 and 2 Timothy 2:2, indicating that the early Church received the Word of God through both oral and written channels. This integrated approach characterized Christian life long before the New Testament canon reached its final form.
Scripture further identifies the Church, rather than the Bible in isolation, as the pillar and foundation of truth, according to 1 Timothy 3:15. Jesus established the Church with teaching authority and promised the Holy Spirit’s guidance into all truth. Private interpretation, by contrast, risks the interpretive chaos that the New Testament itself warns against, as seen in 2 Peter 3:16 and Acts 8:30–31.
Historically, sola scriptura proves difficult to sustain. The early Church operated for centuries without a complete New Testament, relying instead on apostolic preaching, the living Magisterium, and partial writings. The canon itself emerged through ecclesial discernment at councils such as those of Hippo and Carthage in the late fourth century. Widespread literacy and personal access to Scripture remained limited for most of Christian history, rendering the doctrine practically unfeasible in earlier eras.
In practice, the application of sola scriptura has contributed to extensive denominational fragmentation since the Reformation. Thousands of Protestant sects diverge on fundamental matters including baptism, the Eucharist, and salvation, underscoring the challenges of relying solely on individual interpretation without a unified teaching authority.
These considerations do not diminish Scripture’s inspired status but demonstrate that it functions most fully within the context of Sacred Tradition and the Church’s teaching office. The Catholic Church founded by Jesus Himself presents Divine Revelation as preserved through the harmonious interplay of Scripture, Tradition, and the Magisterium, all rooted in the apostolic Deposit of Faith. This framework better aligns with the Bible’s own witness and the historical reality of the early Church.

This is an absolutely TERRIBLE idea.
The TARP corporate bailouts were a huge mistake & the government doesn’t know a damn thing about running a failed budget airline (that the Biden admin killed).

NEW: Bloomberg reports that the potential bailout of Spirit could result in the federal government owning up to 90% of the airline. Wow.
