Are you paying attention yet? Are you going to make yet another excuse for Israel? This is diabolical.

Rick Miller@RickWMiller1·
Claim: “Scripture says Joseph slept with Mary after Jesus’ birth and Jesus had siblings.” 1) “Joseph slept with her after” — not in the text. Matthew 1:25 says he did not know her until the birth. “Until” ≠ “and then he did.” (2 Sam 6:23 uses the same structure with no change after.) You’re adding a line Matthew never wrote. 2) “Jesus had siblings” — assumption, not proof. “Brothers” in Scripture often = kinsmen/relatives. Those named are linked to another Mary (Matt 27:56; John 19:25). And the clincher: John 19:26–27 — Jesus entrusts Mary to John. If she had other sons, that’s unthinkable in Jewish culture. 3) What Scripture actually shows •Luke 1:34 — Mary signals a unique vocation •Luke 1:28 — full of grace (ongoing state) •John 19 — no other children caring for her 🔥 Conclusion Your reading only works if you insert conclusions the text never states. Scripture says Jesus was virginally conceived. It never says Mary stopped being a virgin that part is being supplied, not read.

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?

@rahbar_rod @SteveOnSpeed Also, they’re not calling in the transplant team AT ALL for me or mine. I took my name off the list long before COVID, when I first heard the stories about people waking up on the OR table just before harvesting.

@rahbar_rod @SteveOnSpeed That explanation isn’t going to help the fact that many Americans stopped trusting the medical establishment in the last 6 or so years. We no longer trust doctors simply because they are doctors.

A nurse told me to opt out of organ donation because it might affect medical decisions, and not in my favor. Does this actually happen?

@rahbar_rod @SteveOnSpeed Thanks, but since COVID many of us realized we need to keep as much control of medical decisions as is humanly possible. If you want to quell the rumors, tell hospitals to put a leash on their overly-aggressive body snatchers (transplant teams)

Dr. Rod@rahbar_rod·
this is one of the most persistent myths in medicine and it is genuinely damaging. as a vascular surgeon who has been in the or for 15+ years i can tell you the team trying to save your life has zero connection to the transplant team. the doctors treating you in the icu or the trauma bay don't even have access to the donor registry in that moment. their only priority is your survival. the transplant coordinators are only brought in by the hospital after all life saving efforts have failed and death has been declared. if we let these rumors keep circulating we just end up with more people dying on the waitlist for no reason.

@ConstantCate Not only implies, but says outright. I’m nearly certain that in the 1920s, if either spouse were not Catholic, the ceremony would need to take place outside the sanctuary and without such public fanfare.

Why does His Eminence persist in this untruth? In his accompanying letter, Benedict wrote that "young persons too have discovered this liturgical form, felt its attraction & found in it a form of encounter with the Mystery of the Most Holy Eucharist, particularly suited to them".

@JLLiedl @tlmarlington Fascinating situation. Normally it would be impossible for one or two priests to make such a stand… however, with a quarter of the presbyterate as signers (and undoubtably others in support) it would be very difficult for +Martin to make examples of all of them.

So far, vernacular liturgy and bibles (though the RC ones are nothing like as good as the BCP and KJV) , and married clergy( admittedly by stealth) and to some extent communion in both kinds.

It’s become very obvious of late that a certain group of hyper-patriarchalists believe that sexual sins committed by women are unforgivable- even after private AND public repentance.
Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey@RelatablewABS

The backlash to @TrevorSheatz’s viral X post has been HUGE. Some people responded saying, "I can't believe you just called your wife a wh*re." He did not call his wife that. You called his wife that. You called another man's wife that. You called a new creation— someone redeemed by Christ, sanctified, made new, and washed clean— a wh*re. That is on you. Not her husband. The hyper patriarchy bros who call themselves Christians out there who just want to take any opportunity not only to denigrate women, but to denigrate the work of the Gospel… it's just insane. It's a very obvious tenet of Christianity that you have become a new creation. Somehow that’s now being treated like it’s controversial?

Make no mistake, the issue of dealing with sexually depraved women is not a "Man vs Woman" issue. That is the deflection. This is a female envy issue. This is about women who whored themselves out being envious that they are NOT as desirable as women who DID NOT. They want to be as desirable as a virgin and they lash out at other men and women who tell them they can't be.

My fiance is new to Christianity. She's been told the infamous story going 'round. She's even told me that she wouldn't be happy with me if I aired her dirty laundry with millions after being saved. She gets it better than these feminist "Christians" out here.

Bill Cosby was just found civilly liable in California for a sexual assault that allegedly took place in 1972. Awesome idea for certain states to effectively abolish the statute of limitations on this stuff; definitely no conceivable issues with that
