“Lamb of God” — a sacred oratorio by Rob Gardner about Jesus Christ’s death, Atonement and Resurrection — made its New York City debut at the Metropolitan Opera House at Lincoln Center on Monday, March 30, 2026. The concert, conducted by Gardner, was held in collaboration with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is focusing this Easter season on the “greater love” of Christ, a phrase from John 15:13 in the New Testament: “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” Read more by visiting the link below: newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/lamb-o…

@stackerco How would you describe "creatively resolving problems" compared to "confronting them"?

These younger Mormon apologists are coming from a completely different environment. A different Mormonism really. They’ve grown up shaped inside apologetics and polemics, so these reinterpretations feel normal to them. They haven’t really experienced lived Mormonism as it was, what you might call Bruce R. McConkie Mormonism of certainty and hard claims. They haven’t lived through the church calling things anti Mormon that turned out to be real history. Instead, they’ve inherited something thinner, more flexible, more abstract, more surface level where they can ignore deep doctrines and past teachings and prophets that teach things they don’t like. And that’s all they know. They are trained to creatively resolve problems instead of confronting them. Their informative years were based on “doubt your doubts” while we were raised with Hugh B Browns’ “We must be willing to give up cherished beliefs if evidence and truth require it.” So when contradictions show up, the instinct isn’t to question the system like it was for many of us Gen Xers. Their instinct is to reframe it. That’s what they believe is the best way to find truth. The Stick of Joseph podcast is an example. A couple guys in their 20s. If you watched that interview with John Dehlin, it’s hard to miss the combination: confidence without context and arrogance. But it’s not just indoctrination. This social media thing has given them more incentive. In-group platitudes and shallow statements get likes and views and praise. Their identity, platform, and status are tied to defending the system so their reasoning is motivated, not neutral. They haven’t had a chance to think for themselves. And now with social they cannot. You can see these apologetics have changed from guys like Hugh Nibley to apologetics that just try to soften problems. Ward Radio, Stick of Joseph, all these shows have zero depth. They’ve shifted from Hugh Nibley claims to how do we create ambiguity so anything could be allowed to be true? It’s the only way to survive modern scrutiny, by making everything unfalsifiable. So now they’re arrogant. They think they’ve figured it out better than us old guys. Because they’re “more nuanced” and “intellectually mature” than the past generations. They don’t get caught up in minor things like polygamy, race in the priesthood, anachronisms, Book of Abraham translations like us old idiots do. And it’s our fault we didn’t research this stuff and just believed the church when we were growing up. Really the generations have grown up in entirely different religions and cultures. And while we may have been trained to think more black and white, the younger generation has been trained against thinking critically.

So #MastersOfTheUniverse is going to surprise a lot of people because it is a TON OF FUN. Have had such a blast writing the music for it - but you'll have to wait till June to hear it.. Have gone full out maximalism. Guitars. Choirs. Orchestra. Synths. Drums. More Guitars.

@FantasyWorldW1 False

Star Wars actor John Boyega explained why he doesn’t watch Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones in 2017: “There are no Black people in Game of Thrones,” he said. “You don’t see one Black person in Lord of the Rings. I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen. Thoughts?

@HighDefDiscNews Dang

Accounts with less than 3K followers get more outreach than me. It’s pretty damn discouraging.

@spectrumarvel Thunderbolts

Remove one of these forever

No piece of marketing for this movie has made me more excited

@bigmonkeong Emmanuel Lubezki and Roger Deakins

this begs the question who are the hans zimmer and john williams of cinematographers?

@IMAX @filmbitten This made me so happy

2026 is the year of little guys stealing hearts

@cinsoundradio Not entirely sure which is which.

One is extremely annoying and maybe the worst score ever awarded an Academy Award. One is excruciatingly boring. One is Ok, and one is so loud that you could barely hear the dialogue in the film. The other is Dune, which is EASILY the best score out of the bunch!

@NACHOS2D_ Horrible

Hollywood got cooked. AI Seedance 2.0 just dropped a Hancock vs Homelander in a matter of days $1,000,000-level quality.

For everyone going out this weekend to see PROJECT HAIL MARY - thank you. So many many people worked so so hard to make something that hopefully will bring some joy and hope into the world. It’s wonderful to see the beautiful reactions.. ❤️ Thank you 👎👎

@MattWalshBlog How did it compare to The Martian?

Took the wife and kids to see Project Hail Mary. We all really enjoyed it. Its greatest achievement is that it’s an actual family movie. Not too babyish for adults and not too grown up for the kids. Reminds me of the PG movies they used to make all the time in the 80s and 90s. Very much a spiritual descendent of ET. Maybe Hollywood will take the hint and start making real family films again. It also kind of reminded me of Ad Astra, which is a massively underrated masterpiece. A slower film, more adult oriented and contemplative. That and Arrival are the best space/alien movies of the past 15 years. Project Hail Mary is probably in the top 5. I’d rank it higher than Interstellar.

@geekritique_dak @warnerbros Is there a way to support you?

UPDATE: @warnerbros have decided NOT to release their copyright claim on my Monsterverse Timeline. I now have two options. 1) Do nothing and never see a cent off that video again, or 2) appeal. I’ve decided to appeal. I wouldn’t normally do this, as this could end with my video being removed and my channel receiving its first strike in the 10 years it’s been live—possibly even 2 strikes, as they’ve claimed it twice—but I am so damn proud of this video and I put way too much work into it for it not to be fought over. This may be the last time this hour long documentary that I spent months on will be able to be viewed, so I’m going to plug it one last time: youtu.be/BamyXL7Z_n0?si… At the end of the day, I know it’s just some random person “reviewing” this appeal, and there will be no negative impact on their behalf to strike down my channel. It’s evil and cruel, but from the cold glow of some screen on the other side of the country, it’s just the click of a button. But I have to stand by my work on principle.

@TylerCWhitmore EEAAO

If the last 10 Best Picture winners were all nominated in the same year, who would get your vote?

#MCU Quadrilogies: Thor - 4 composers Captain America - 3 composers Avengers - 3 composer SpiderMan - 1 composer!

@SammyJReacts Took them 9 years. So now we have the standard that you have to wait 9 years before complaining about a credits scene being unfulfilled.
