Hilarious.

I don’t think Charlene ever claimed it to be. Nor did anyone else.

If he doesn’t get them parallel, how will he know what’s available, how to get it, and what to do with it once he’s got it?

Someone finally finished reading a book!

If it's true, is it slander?

It seems to come down to the question: Says who? Victor says so of himself. If he says so... The author of 2 Timothy says so about what he himself writes. If he says so... Did God create man or did man create God?

2 Tim 3:16 is referring to the scriptures of the Hebrew Bible, right? It is certainly not referring to all without exception scripture. Or is it?

If you're using butter made from grass fed cows, right?

Thanks. I was about to point out the same. The fine is as egregiously vulgar as the hoarding. It is loose change in the cushions of the sofa. Literally. Managing $32B conservatively with a 4% return yields $1.28B…. per annum!! A $5M penalty is just… Dark.

Wow. Just... wow... Teachers who are apt (skilled) to teach are unafraid of questions. The narcissist and the huckster HATE questions. Their biggest fear is being found out for the frauds that they are. The bathwater needs to be thrown out because it has been contaminated by the rotting corpse of a dead baby. Some want to hold on to the corpse. I say, let them. But get that rot out of my bathtub!

Mmmmph

I think you're on to something. When I questioned how "faith" was defined, my fellowship commander, who was still trapped in his 1970s era Corps "commitment," said, "Faith is what we HAVE, believing is what we DO." Not much of a definition, but it may sound familiar to many here. I was given a similar answer when I asked, "What is religion?" His said, "Man made....mmmmph." (Huh?)

Thanks for this one, Rocky. (Mmmmph)

Corrupt could mean watered-down or adulterated. But corrupt is not in the text. I'm sure many, not few, already know this.

This is silly, Rocky. You are mistaken. Honest mistake, I'm sure. Merriam-Webster attribute (something) to (someone or something) idiom 1 : to say that (something) is because of (someone or something) He attributes his success to his coach. His doctor attributes his health problems to a poor diet and a lack of exercise. 2 : to think of (something) as being a quality of (someone or something) The study suggests that it is a mistake to attribute adult reasoning to children. Is it right to attribute complex emotions toanimals? She attributed some importance to the research. 3 : to think of (something) as being made or created by (someone) The poem is usually attributed to Shakespeare, but some scholars doubt that he wrote it.

I don't intend it to be. The point is anyone and everyone will throw around "spiritual" claims. Everyone claims to have the REAL "spiritual truth." I say, beware those making such claims.

Well, that phrasing seems cumbersome. Is that how you would have written the sentence?

1000 points! The quote is attributed to Vladimir Putin, who addressed his parliament a few hours before Biden gave a speech in Poland. "Millions of people in theWest understand that they are being led to a real spiritual catastrophe."

I didn't use BY.

To whom is this quote attributed? ”…people…understand that they are being led to a REAL spiritual catastrophe.” A. VPW B. Mike C. LCM D. johniam E. Vladimir Putin

The more I know, the more I know I don’t know.

The ridiculous shall be ridiculed.

"During Living Victoriously VP said 'Spiritually I've seen 4 things in life: religion, noreligion, corrupt religion, and true Christianity. Still rings true for me.'" Is that what he said? Those are the four things he had seen..."spiritually"? What an odd thing to say. I'm not surprised to learn that victor said something so stupid. "He (LCM) still has as much conviction in his voice as he ever did..." Sounds like LCM is sincere. What did victor say about sincerity? "CG has something in writing that says there's at least 16 things where VP was wrong about something." Is that what CG wrote? Sounds like CG either failed to absorb it the first time or he's unable to see the actual number is an order of magnitude greater than 16. "SIT would definitely be a step in the right direction, but so would reading the bible." It would? A step in the right direction? Which direction would that be?
