@wmsmediaonx the final episode of Neon Genesis Evangelion made me wonder this, and it's one of the reasons I haven't seen the films.

I appreciate both; mostly prefer the NASB95, but currently use the ESV because that's what the copies I have are.
Rock Wall Bibles@RockWallBibles

I don’t think people realize how many more words the NASB95 uses than the ESV. ESV contains ~757,000 words NASB95 contains ~807,000 words A good example of the difference in word count is the rendering of Romans 8:28: “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28 ESV (24 words) “And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” Romans 8:28 NASB95 (27 words) This difference stems from the slight difference in translation philosophy between the two. The ESV asks: “what did the original author mean, and what’s the most natural, readable English way to say that?” While still staying very close to the text, just with a little more freedom to let English be English. The NASB ’95 asks: “what did the original Greek and Hebrew say, word for word?” and then tries to mirror that as literally as possible in English, even if the result sounds wooden at times. I am thankful that we have both (and other) good English translations. Which one do you prefer?

@musicphanatic yeah, the guy I think of is the drummer for BTBAM but he does in fact get a bit of credit, so I think it's a silly exercise. what about neil peart? what about ringo? what about (popular drummer)?

@rzrvinyl It's weird that people complain about global warming and then pretend that other planets don't have worse systems.

The idea that humans feel the need to continue on as a species fascinates me. It’s a deep rooted desire for immortality?

Elon Musk reveals the deeper purpose of becoming a multiplanetary species: “Having two planets that are both self-sustaining and strong is going to be incredibly important for the long-term survival of civilization The goal is not just to visit Mars - it’s to ensure the light of consciousness never goes out”

@m_anthonyharris People in Japan for the most part think he is strange and impolite. They're definitely not happy with this recent action and view him as someone who breaks deals and is unreliable. It's tbd how the new aspects of the trade war hit people here, but certainly oil is pricier.

@JBay_AllTheWay My 15 and 16 year old would say YES, hands down (and my current self just recorded some music still inspired by it). My grown up self says I prefer the message & music of Delirious (& prefers lyrics on KoF & not andrea/ christalena/ random girl who's never been to Bremerton)

Seeing a BART car for the first time, Concord, 1965. The first time the public saw a BART car was during a 1965 unveiling in Concord, seven years before the system began carrying passengers on Sept. 11, 1972. BART officials framed the unveiling and tours at the agency’s Diablo Testing Facility in Concord as an opportunity to gather feedback and fine-tune the interiors to meet passenger needs. “We’ve got to compete with the luxury of today’s autos,” then-general manager B.R. Stokes, who is seen in this edit, told the assembled press. “I think we’ve got something that only, possibly, a jet can compare with.” The crowd, mostly press and BART employees, responded enthusiastically until they boarded the cars. Passengers loved the width of the seats but were unhappy with the legroom. source footage 🎥: Levene Productions

@GarlicFryRy @SFGiants He's a good 6-7-8 guy. I think he works really well with certain match-ups. Maybe could take another step further, but I think those innings suit him well. Very passionate.

@_P3te_Belcher @Ineverglow I'm finally going to listen to a few Twila Paris albums. She's almost more known as a songwriter than as singer/artist because of We Will Glorify, We Bow Down, and He is Exalted.

@80sPastorDude It's an album where you can know the lyrics but not necessarily pay attention to what they're saying, because once you notice the content it becomes trashy instead of classy. Such a skilled group, though.

I am not proud but as "Paul Revere" was playing I knew every word. Back when I was a kid I used to say things like, "I don't really pay attention to the lyrics." That fact that I can still recite every line forty years later says different.
Lee@80sPastorDude

I listened to this album SO much when I was in high school. It inspired a very brief period of me writing rap songs. Musically, it is still fascinating. Lyrically, not so much. This is the first time I have listened to it in a very long time.

@dlwhiteman @Ineverglow I'd recommend 'hello, mannequin' or 'the ministry of archers' above it, personally.
