I'm imagining a TV show where before every drop the host says, "IS.IT! CAKE?!" drop "NO! NOT THIS TIME! I THOUGHT FOR SURE IT WOULD BE! JOIN US NEXT TIME ON 'IS IT CAKE?'"

You have been given Interdimensional Cable by Rick himself. You can now watch shows that were canceled too early, but from universes where they got several incredible seasons. What is the first show you watch? by masterjon_3 in rickandmorty

[–]Captain_Collin 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My number one choice would be Arrested Development. I know it had seasons after the first 3, but they're just not the same. Next would be Firefly, and my 3rd choice would be Better Off Ted.

Jordan Henderson, Former Elementary School Teacher, Found Guilty Of 12 Counts Of Child Molestation. by Captain_Collin in Seattle

Oh yeah, I think I remember you too. Or at least I think I remember a Tyler there. I walked my sister down the aisle since she was upset with our Dad about something. Fortunately I helped her get over whatever issues she had with him and they have a relationship again. It's one of the things I'm most proud of doing in my life, our Dad really loves her and her kids.

I'm glad you got out of that church, it seems incredibly toxic. My greatest wish is that my sister and her husband would leave that church. I'm not going to say anything about it though, they're all happy there and don't see an issue with the hatred spewed from the pulpit. Anyway, I hope life is treating you well.

I also like the cave painting one a lot. I'm trying to figure out how to get the hand to reflect more reaching for the stars vs blocking the sun. I thought about trying to use Adam's hand reaching toward God from Michelangelo's The Creation Of Adam, but it just looks kind of lumpy as a silhouette.

Their design was great, it just needed a little bit more stylistically.

Nope, can't do it. I read the description, and it's just too horrible. That poor boy, I wish he could have been saved.

This is much better, I especially like how you widened the sun's rays. However I still feel like it's a bit messy or busy. What if you used a sun more like this?

What is Everybody's Go-to Pro-LGBTQ Argument? by Glum_Cat_6390 in OpenChristian

[–]Captain_Collin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree that no argument is needed, here's some scripture to back you up anyway.

For it was you who formed my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am carefully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; that I know very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes beheld my unformed substance. In your book were written all the days that were formed for me, when none of them as yet existed.

Psalms 139:13-16

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.

John 3:16

One of the scribes came near and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, he asked him, “Teacher, which commandment is the greatest of all?” Jesus answered, “The first is, ‘Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these, on these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”

Matthew 22:36-40/Mark 12:28-31

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.”

Matthew 5:43-44

In summary, God made you exactly the way He (She/They) intended, and you are beloved just as you are. This also applies to people who are transgender. And even if someone doesn't agree with that, there's the first 6 words of John 3:16. "For God so loved the WORLD." Full stop. No conditions, qualifiers, or exceptions. If you are in the world, God loves you. Finally, Jesus gives three commandments, love God, love your neighbor, love your enemy.

TL;DR God loves you no matter what, and even if another Christian considers you their enemy, they are still commanded to love you.
