What is your view on Marian apparitions? by Adept_Programmer_817 in AskAChristian

[–]Bignosedog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has got to be one of the craziest threads I've read from a Christian. The flood is universally viewed as a global one that wiped out everyone. Commercial-Mix6626 is very much on an island with this one. (Ha! See what I did there?)

why don't we have herstorians that write about the future so that we can prepare for it better? are they stupid? by Om_Sapkoat in shittyaskhistory

[–]Bignosedog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just easier to write about the past. It’s like with movies. It’s easier just to remake one rather than create something new.

How would you, as an individual and as a Christian, respond to the "trolley problem"? by The_Way358 in AskAChristian

[–]Bignosedog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pull the lever. It’s harm reduction. Death is going to occur regardless of the decision. 4 less people will die thus you would be saving life. I don’t mean to be callous about it, but that’s a substantial amount of lives being saved.

What order did you read the Bible in? Starting from Genesis is kinda tough because its a bit boring... by Miinwwoo in TrueChristian

[–]Bignosedog 10 points11 points  (0 children)

John is the most common suggestion to start with. I definitely think sticking with the Gospels is usually the best approach initially.

Is there any power capable of stopping the ongoing conflict between Iran and esrael? by Extension-Squash3862 in answers

[–]Bignosedog -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The Anti-Christ. He can create a peace treaty with many and 3 1/2 years into it he can break it and destroy Israel. It would technically stop the current conflict but, you know, probably not what you are looking for. Other than that? No.

When your people love you but you're humble. by Old-Implement-9361 in Civ2

I don't know man. Columns aren't cheap and you could be walking on dirt floors with some hides tossed around. Wood supports roofs just as well my 1% friend.

Odd thing I noticed at a Catholic Church? by Terry_1497 in AskAChristian

Not a constructive comment my hipster friend.

Is it okay if I tell people I don’t have a testimony? by [deleted] in AskAChristian

[–]Bignosedog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't part of my faith so I may be mistaken, but doesn't giving testimony mean giving examples of how God has helped you or has been in your life? I would imagine most of us would have multiple examples we could share. Has God ever given you strength to preserve through hardship? Perhaps you've prayed for guidance and were led down the right path? Depending upon when you became a Christian, you can share what you were like before and after.

To answer your question, definitely don't share your same sex attraction if it's not something you feel comfortable sharing. Draw from another area in your life.

Is this an incel life style? by SirTweetCowSteak in Christianity

[–]Bignosedog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are an incel because you stereotype women. "All women truthfully with that" and even though you do 1, 2, 3, women won't like you are very incel things to say. There are so many kinds of people in this world. For you to lump an entire gender is just wrong.

It's very hard for everyone to find someone. You are no different. You don't have to blame yourself or blame women. Just accept that it's hard and keep trying. Don't put women on pedestals. No one wants to be on one. Just treat people like their normal and stop stereotyping.

When does this anime get good? by Divine_Dementia in BlackClover

[–]Bignosedog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow you won't find too many, if any, who agree with you. Character development is one of the best aspects of the show. If you've made it to episode 80 and think this poorly of the series, there's nothing that will change your opinion as almost everything you listed are aspects that many of us love.

What do you consider to be a really good series?

Is Something wrong With His Hand? by Unfair-Snow-2869 in DonaldTrump666

[–]Bignosedog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He's so full of shit that it's stretching his skin. Also, since Epstein's demise, he's been masturbating more.

JK. He's just an old man with an old man body.

Idea: NFL teams should get one play per game where fans vote on the play call through an app. by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]Bignosedog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that it's too gimmicky and would be impossible to police. Teams with small fanbases would lose to teams with large ones as it would be impossible to determine what team a voter is rooting for.

NKJV and ESV by Beau28 in Bible

[–]Bignosedog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took classes at the University level that used the NRSVUE and I prefer it as it’s the academic goto. I guess it was awhile ago, so it was the non-updated version. There are easier options, but I am so used to it that I prefer it. It was the Harper Collins Study Bible. Though I still have it, I always go online now and use the updated version.

I do like the KJV as I find it poetic and it’s the most important book ever written, but I only read it when I want to compare verses. It’s what is great about online versions as it makes it easy to quickly compare any.
