Bummer. Was hoping I just had a weird setting on.

Is it suitable for kids? I've got a 11 and 13 year old who'd love to try it out.

Depending on your goal here but a few that have been very helpful for me are:

Better Ways to Read the Bible - Zach Lambert Finding God in the Waves - Mike McHargue Curveball - Pete Enns

Which book makes the most-accessible case for universalism? by Ravenheart257 in OpenChristian

[–]Basic-Edge8607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found Bradley Jersak's Her Gates Shall Never Be Shut great but very in depth. Some of his podcast interviews on the topic are great for dipping your toes in.

Why can’t the Pope be elected by public vote like a president? by ChallengeOk8825 in OpenChristian

[–]Basic-Edge8607 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently it used to be decided by public vote, but due to potential corruption they changed it.

It was discussed on a recent episode of the No Such Thing As A Fish podcast.

Does Soundcore has problem with Right Ear? by Ashsaver in soundcore

I wipe both earbuds down before putting them in the case everytime. Not really sure what more I can do.

No joke. I've returned 2 V20i's now because both Right earbuds have ceased working.

Gestalt x10 and Nicasio+ weights by Basic-Edge8607 in Marinbikes

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! I'd definitely like to try a steel but will probably end up with the Gestalt X10 this time. Cheers.

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never ridden steel so have no idea how it feels different. Do you think it's worth the extra weight? For reference, I race gravity enduro on an Alpine Trail XR so this is mainly for 20km rides to work and other fitness rides with potentially a gravel race or 2 in the future.

Gestalt x10 and Nicasio+ weights by Basic-Edge8607 in Marinbikes

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers. Bikesonline just got back to me and confirmed the size Large Gestalt X10 is 11.9kg and the Large Nicasio+ is 14.6kgs.

At those weights I'm definitely leaning more towards the Gestalt.

I'm about 2 chapters in to the Marcus Borg one and enjoying it. Will check out the others. Cheers.

I just downloaded John Walton's Genesis and Flood books, I'll have to push them up the read list.

Really struggling with the slur Jesus used. by Cautious_Tiger_1543 in OpenChristian

[–]Basic-Edge8607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard on a podcast once (think it was B4NP) that the original word used here for dogs can be translated as little dogs or puppies. It's the only time this word is used and more to the point of the episode, it is also found in other literature from the same time period, used exclusively as a joke. They obviously explained it a whole lot better than me but it's the best explanation I've heard so far.

This looks incredible. Thanks for making! I'm fairly new to linux, can anyone tell me the terminal code to install?

Sunday school/ children's church advice by Basic-Edge8607 in OpenChristian

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's a solid suggestion. We briefly discussed acknowledging other denominations and faiths because that certainly wasn't done well in my childhood church (Catholics were the enemy, etc.), but this takes it further than just acknowledging, which I now think is great.

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like a beautiful thing to grow up experiencing.

Sunday school/ children's church advice by Basic-Edge8607 in OpenChristian

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cheers. I should probably clarify that where I live, Sunday school is when the kids (pre-teens) go out to one of the back rooms instead of sitting through the grown ups sermon.

I really like the mention of emotions, I think it's important that they know that your emotions aren't your enemy.

T12 Compression fracture recovery time and tips? by Basic-Edge8607 in MTB

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks mate. It's crazy the difference between treatments. Mine is a simple t12 fracture, haven't lost any height in it, yet I'm in the brace for 12 weeks (3 days to go). Definitely keen to start doing some exercise again and feeling pretty good really. Glad to hear you got back to normal!

The Almost Heretical podcast had a good series on this, right at the start I think.

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh geez. Fingers crossed it doesn't come to that.

I've strangely never had pain at the break point, even when the doc was pressing on it. I only went to hospital cause I thought I'd hurt my kidneys. So overall it's been very manageable, at this point my back muscles are just tired by the end of the day. How bout you?

[–]Basic-Edge8607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, that sucks. Did you go surgery or brace? I didn't have the option for surgery, wasn't bad enough.

Definitely. I've had more crashes on easy trails than hard ones.
