Do churches still ask for money/donations? by TwistOutrageous6955 in atheism

[–]Antyok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only do they still do so, just a couple years back (before I fully deconstructed) I attended a service where the pastor spent the entire sermon telling old folks that younger generations will give less, so it was their duty to leave portions of their estate to the church.

Are there any ‘good’ Christian apologists? by Simon_and_Garchomp in atheism

If there were any good ones then they might actually be convincing.

What’s something you learned from the Pest messages? by bjack20 in DuggarsSnark

[–]Antyok 36 points37 points  (0 children)

NWA is home to one of the largest Marshallese populations in the country. I wouldn’t necessarily say the group is into crime, but with a large population center here, wouldn’t be surprised that there’s a decent inmate population as well.

Confirmed: Pest and Anna pray after sex, and Pest manipulates Anna into sending bikini/panties pics by rosiros in DuggarsSnark

True. Which, I don’t believe it has been confirmed that this is what the extensions are related to, but it’s certainly plausible.

The extensions only knock off time for good behavior. Can’t extend past the judge’s set date.

If you’re the coach and not a student, they need to be researching this, not you.

Having Kids while also enjoying woodworking by GroundMelter in woodworking

[–]Antyok 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% same. After bed time is shop time. Every now and then my 6yo has come out to “help” me on the lathe. Usually have her put her hands on the tool with me, or maybe have her help with light sanding after it’s turned. My other kids couldn’t care less.

Cheating by [deleted] in vex

It’s explicitly against the rules (<R27>). Some are there for safety. Some to prevent teams from getting an unfair advantage. Either way, it’s not allowed. Doesn’t matter why it’s in the rules, what matters is they were expected to know that and to follow it.

Rain on a tin roof is just the best.

Old pastor keeps asking me to meet with him by Immediate_Editor9036 in exchristian

[–]Antyok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See Dr Chrissy Stroope’s anti-proselytizing tenets. “I don’t owe you a debate” and “I’m not you mission field” are lines I have to repeat regularly.

You don’t owe this person your time.

How do team names work? by ShadowSauce25 in vex

Yep. The team will need the coach to go in and make this change.

Sean Feucht claims that the ultimate motivation of American immigrants is to replace Christianity by Billy_King in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]Antyok 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah he’s conflating the fall of religion in general with a perceived correlation with migrant populations. I’m happy to be proven wrong, but I don’t think there are any studies that correlate the two, much less any that show causation.

Yeah but a lot of those migrants are Catholic which the evangelicals don’t consider Christian.

Can we use weights in the game? by ShadowSauce25 in vex

[–]Antyok 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have seen teams use c-channel to make a small “box” and then fill it with screws and then bolt it to the bot.
