@NickJFreitas Well, maybe you can say you're dead now, but not after you were born we were all killed off during the Reagan administration.
English
We didn't listen. And now we're all dead. In fact, we've all been dead since Janurary. Thanks a lot Donald Trump!!

2016. Guy McPherson (a climate change expert, scientist, and professor from the University of Arizona) says that there will not be any humans on the planet by 2026 due to the effects of climate change. Trust the scientists. 😜🤣

@The_FJC What's the Democratic DA in Arlington's home address? Just curious.
English
A woman published Stephen Miller's home address.
The stated goal was to put a target on a sitting White House official and his family.
The Democratic DA in Arlington just announced she won't prosecute.
Her reason?
It might have a "chilling effect on political protest."
In other words — doxxing Trump officials is now protected speech.
Remember that next time they lecture you about democracy. 🇺🇸

@AetherCzar p.s. the Hellenized Jewish Sadducees denied the Resurrection and this made them sad, you see.
English
"Did early Christian Fathers like Tertullian (155–220) really believe that absurdity and impossibility were the logical basis of truth? Were they philosophically opposed not only to logic and reason, but also to philosophy and science itself?"

@AetherCzar 3/3 The Jewish & Christian position was that matter is created good, but corrupted by the fall. This corruption is removed in the Resurrection. Athens had a simplistic explanation that evil came from matter, qua matter.
English
@AetherCzar 2/3 When the Apostle speaks of the resurrection the Athenians regarded spirit as good and matter the source of all evil. Why would deceased spirits want to be burdened with a body again?
English
@AetherCzar 1/3 Christianity embraced the notion of Logos, but rejected Athen's insistence that matter is evil. This gave neoplatonist Christians heartburn. It explains the insistence upon incarnation by the Greek churches.

@CuriosityonX If aliens came they'd search in vain for intelligent life. They probably have cat videos already.

@Sofia50020Sofia As long as you don't mind if I blast the Apostles Creed from every church at full volume 5 times a day, right?

You walk up to your computer and see this screen. Your next move?

@CynicalPublius Donald Trump is so powerful that he time travelled to London 1689 and got the Baptists to add Chapter 26 to their Confession.

I have been pretty emphatic the last few days in condemning Pope Leo’s foray into American politics.
My detractors are having fun stating that I am doing this out of allegiance to President Trump and that I have chosen Trump over God.
WRONG.
The biggest reason by far why I am so vocal on this is the damage Pope Leo is doing to the Catholic Church in the USA.
I believe Pope Leo has done more to harm US Catholicism in just a few days than any other Pope of the past 100 years (even Francis).
Pope Leo is literally causing orthodox, faithful American Catholics to flee the Church out of disgust over his leftwing politicization and his kowtowing to Islam. Moreover, he has opened the door for boundless criticism against Catholicism from certain Protestant denominations and churches, causing untold harm to Christian ecumenism in the USA.
It is precisely because I care so much about the Church that Jesus founded in AD 33 that I oppose the havoc Pope Leo has unleashed in the US Church.
(And yes, under Church doctrine and as a Catholic, I am fully entitled to hold such beliefs and express them.)

@seamus_coughlin It's a pity Mr. Musk couldn't make a hyperloop link between L.A. and S.F., but Engineering cannot trump Politics.
English
If you were just complaining that a $4 billion dollar trip to space "could have fed the poor" but you're silent about the $126 billion dollar train to nowhere, it's time to stop pretending your politics have anything to do with feeding poor people
KTLA@KTLA
In a 60 Minutes report, officials said they now believe the rail line linking L.A. and San Francisco could ultimately cost about $126 billion, more than triple the original price tag approved by voters. ktla.com/news/californi…

@EdmundBurke_ESQ @omriceren I may not understand your complaint, but it would seem that "navigating Israel out of the incoherence of the Oslo accords" is the only rational response to 10/7
English
@omriceren It's seriously impressive you didn't even mention 10/7, the biggest slaughter of jews since the holocaust which Netanyahu allowed to happen.
You and other bibi supporters don't care about 10/7 victims and don't even pretend to
English
Netanyahu's legacy will be navigating Israel out of the incoherence of the Oslo Accords, across a dozen years of hostile American administrations, and into the most sophisticated air war in the history of humanity to eliminate the existential threat posed to the Jewish State by the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Nadav Pollak@NadavPollak
This will be Netanyahu’s legacy, and it’s not a good one. He can boast as much as he wants on his special relationship with Trump, but he lost the American people, which for Israel’s long term can be devastating. One reason for this massive change is Bibi bringing to his government extreme right wing figures like Ben Gvir and others

@AntiLeftMemes I stopped listening to Mr. Stern when he was the morning drive shock jock in Washington, DC. He said anyone like me should stop listening. I took his advice. Haven't regretted that decision for 40 years.

@TrumpsHurricane This already happened. If it were Mexico going to war with us, it was Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and California. To the victor go the spoils.

@honeymoon250 You see when a cargo plane and a helicopter love each other very much and the mood is right...

@ronsterd89 It's for jacquard weaving machines. And some other stuff they used when they got bored with slide rules.

My grandson found this in a textbook we bought at Halfprice Books. He asked me if this is “what library cards looked like”, but I actually don’t know what it might be from. Any clue? There is nothing on the back.

@Sofia50020Sofia My mom was the best shot in the house growing up. My daughter was the best shot in my house when she was growing up. Yeah, I'm really uncomfortable. Sure. Stupid question.
