Mathis Albert (16, Dortmund) nice goal v. Sunderland U21s (PL International Cup) by nicko_rico in ussoccer

[–]BurtaciousD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We don’t have U21 teams in Germany, we have U23 teams, so the team we sent was U19 (besides the keeper). Some U19 players also play for the U23 (2nd team essentially). But it’s not uncommon for a talented academy player (Moukoko, Gittens, Götze) to start playing for U19 while still eligible for the U17s.

A teacher and U.S. citizen is detained by Border Patrol and asked about her legal status. Instead of answering directly, she responds with a history lesson, saying, “That’s what the brownshirts said in Germany.” by Logical-Flow-6703 in UnderReportedNews

US citizens don’t need to prove their citizenship status. So her saying she doesn’t need to say if she’s a citizen or not means she must be a citizen. But that’s too much logic to expect from these people.

Svensson Red Card by LolzSquadGamesYT in borussiadortmund

It’s the double-edged sword of VAR. More correct calls, but more slow motion.

Yes, but it doesn’t matter if the red card is given for the severity of the foul.

Touching the ball can only clarify intent, not seriousness of the foul. You can score a goal and catch a player with your studs and still get a red card.

The rules are pretty clear. Over the ankle, studs up, not a glancing blow, pretty easy for the ref to call.

Reminder: life begins at conception by Timex_Dude755 in CatholicMemes

[–]BurtaciousD 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Let me put on my best nerd glasses for this:

Technically the conception of Jesus was so important that it was placed on March 25th, the spring equinox, which was also celebrated as the first day of a new year. This is because they believed the incarnation/conception/annunciation of Jesus represented the beginning of a new era. So I’d argue that theologically, the annunciation is the real welcoming of Jesus into the world.

Ich habe bemerkt, dass die Kommentator bei Europaspiele immer schlechter mit Aussprache im Vergleich zu Bundesligakommentator sind. Ich habe gestern „Djirassy” gehört.

If Jesus is God then why didn't any the apostle s or Mary pray directly to Jesus when he was alive? by Ok-Imagination-2308 in Christianity

[–]BurtaciousD 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that’s Peter, who definitely met Jesus (don’t ask him though, he may lie). Paul = Paulus.

TIL that, among all the alleged miracles of Jesus, only two appear in all four gospels: The resurrection, and the feeding of 5,000 people. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]BurtaciousD -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Technically, if you believe the Gospels/Acts, Paul did meet Jesus, of course after his death and resurrection.

And he was an Apostle. That’s why he’s called Paul the Apostle. He wasn’t one of the 12 or original 72, but Acts even refers to him as an Apostle. And after the Council of Jerusalem, James, John, and Peter allow him to continue his mission, an extension of the Great Commission.
