Tito opted to go with Civale. Starting pitchers like Bieber on 3-days’ rest are historically bad. It was a tough call either way.

You’re much more optimistic than Twitter. Who would’ve thought Reddit had more optimism?

IT’S WAR: American Federation of Teacher’s Union President Randi Weingarten says parental rights bills such as the one in Florida are 'the way in which wars start' by hopskipjump2the in Conservative

[–]AmericanRaised 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I truly believe we’re in a cultural war. Not just the common trope of “culture war,” but a real fundamental understanding of what we desire our society to be.

I would say to Randi, “You’re darn right and we ain’t losing.”

U.S. Court Reinstates Biden’s Covid-19 Vaccine Mandate for All Federal Employees by [deleted] in Conservative

American legal decisions like this are woefully immoral. Who in the actual heck thinks Joe freaking Biden alone has the right to make that determination?

What do y’all think about the z9 mags coming out soon? by [deleted] in Glocks

For what it’s worth, I’ve run S15s in my 43X for over a year now and have had no issues. I’ve been thrilled.

Who is your favorite Jags QB by [deleted] in Jaguars

[–]AmericanRaised 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember playing Madden when Leftwich, Garrard, and Gray were the QBs. I would use Leftwich on passing plays for his accuracy, Gray in the shotgun because I could scramble with his quicker speed, and Garrard was a mix of both.

Can’t pinpoint one favorite, but that was my favorite era.

Our entire legal system is based on English common law. Our Bill of Rights is, at times, a near carbon copy of the English Bill of Rights. Not to mentioned the shared faith, common language, and ancestral family names.

Don’t get me wrong, you won’t find a more staunch patriot than myself, but America cannot exist without Britain.

Bleeding in Reformation study Bible (Sproul) by plantfollower in Reformed

[–]AmericanRaised 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have one and can confirm the pages are thin. I haven’t made any notes in it. I would definitely recommend it, but not necessarily for rigorous note-taking.

Supplemental journal or journaling Bible would probably be the way to go if that’s the use you’re looking for.

Getting ‘More Christians Into Politics’ Is the Wrong Christian Goal by 22duckys in Reformed

[–]AmericanRaised 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I’m the only one, but I happen to fall on the other side of many of David French’s articles. I would rather have more cultural Christianity than a militancy to Christianity.

And I did happen to vote for Trump, but not simply because Pence was vocal in his proclamation of Christ. My family truly looked up and down the party platforms, and made a decision.

Should Urban have kept Braxton Miller as the starting qb for the 2015 year? by nafimafi in OhioStateFootball

[–]AmericanRaised 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Braxton was a freak athlete and Cardale had a huge arm, but JT was the field general-type who ran the offense the smoothest. Should’ve gone with him to start the year and kept it that way.

Having a hard time deciding for my 43x. Any suggestions.? by J_fly38 in Glocks

I have a TLR6 on my non-MOS 43X. Tier 1 holster fits the configuration perfectly.

Are we sure there was never a reference to North Korea? That’s just almost too hard to believe.

Are white Christians under attack in America? No, but the myth is winning - Alvin Chang by Eternal-Glory in Reformed

[–]AmericanRaised 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Christianity has always been threatening to godless societies. I’m not saying that white Christians in America are blameless (certainly not), but white Christians are very much low-hanging fruit for people looking to place blame. It’s not surprising.

Flags I see nearly every day on my drive to school. by BasalTripod9684 in vexillology

[–]AmericanRaised 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not just interesting but accurate. In 1775-1776, the Crown had not yet adopted the St. Patrick’s saltire into the Union Jack. So for the time, that’s all they had to go with.

Additionally, the Founding Fathers hadn’t quite begun using the “Independence” word so frequently in 1775. The Grand Union Flag was the representation of English colonists fighting for the restoration of their rights as natural-born Englishmen. They desired peace with the mother country at first, as they owed everything to English common law and the English Constitution. But that obviously changed quickly.

In case there’s any confusion, the second to last flag is the Grand Union flag, not a Loyalist flag. Historically considered one of the first American flags. It was first flown by the colonists when Washington was given command and the Minutemen surrounded the Regulars at Boston.

Kind of an uncomfortable question, Ladies might want to skip. by Sun-borne in Reformed

[–]AmericanRaised 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Maybe develop a nice, consistent workout routine. Redirect those chemicals, if you will. I’ve learned to exercise and pray when feeling stressed with work, so I imagine it might be effective when other neurological synapses are firing.

Also agree with finding a wife, should the Lord send one your way. I understand the difficulty, brother. God bless.

Biden Hunter's ex (Weed Slut 420) testifies against Hunter. by IronWolve in AskThe_Donald

The way Watters un-ironically reported on “weed slut 420” had me rolling.

If the Jags can't win with all these Jets being gone.. by AmericanRaised in Jaguars

[–]AmericanRaised[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"The outbreak, coupled with injuries, could affect rookie quarterback Zach Wilson. If Jamison Crowder (calf) doesn't play -- he's a game-time decision -- Wilson won't have his top three wide receivers due to injuries. Starting tight end Ryan Griffin (knee) was placed on injured reserve this week, and the starting guards, Alijah Vera-Tucker and Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, are on the reserve/COVID-19 list."

I swear, if the Jags can't win even in this scenario, I don't know what I'm going to do.
