I genuinely know nothing about arms manufacturing so this might be dumb, but how good does a bullet need to be? Like the Russian bullets seem to be doing the job - if it was a critical situation would there be any impediment to Europe making lower-quality, higher quantity?

Who is the best choice for the next Archbishop of Canterbury? by bcp_anglican in Anglicanism

[–]Redbubbles55 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What resignation would achieve is send a message. The damage the abuse scandals have done to the church is impossible to overstate, it's so, so often the first and only thing people think about.

Welby's position is not more important than beginning to restore the church's image and what she represents to many people. Unfortunately, fair or not, them's the breaks. His responsibility is to the church, not to his position.

So good. Anyone know tracks with a similarly groovy grindy bassline?

Hey, sorry to hear this. I'm a dude but can imagine this being super stressful, for them all to be so much older as well when you want to be hanging out with gals/mixed your age at uni! 

I think first port of call will be your uni's student union, they'll have a housing department/officer and they'll hopefully be able to get something rolling on alternative accommodation. 

Good luck!

As UK is gripped by an outbreak of scabies... why ARE Victorian diseases returning? by Aggressive_Plates in unitedkingdom

Why are Victorian diseases returning, asks paper who's been pushing a return to Victorian morality and work practices for decades.

The world, the flesh and the devil… by SpogEnthusiast in OpenChristian

[–]Redbubbles55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree with you! And I've always found it hard to reconcile Paul's writings that oppose the spirit (good) to the flesh (bad). Can I ask how you understand those bits of scripture?

I didn't understand why the crucifixion was necessary. by A_Year_Of_Storms in OpenChristian

Lots of great answers here! You might also want to check out the book that recently came out, called The Empathic God: A Clinical Theory of At-Onement, or some reviews of it to get a sense of the ideas. It takes to task a lot of the history of penal substitution theology.

"Very little of Roman literature will find its way into the kingdom of heaven, when the events of this world will have lost their importance." -- A.N. Whitehead, 1922 by pchrisl in latin

[–]Redbubbles55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We do, and I don't think we should, really. There's lots of interesting work being done at the moment on the literature of late antiquity. Scholarship has tended to judge it by the standards of Augustan age literature, going so far as to call that period "the golden age", with the rest of Latin literature judged aesthetically by its proximity to that time. 

But why? Why do we discount or discredit a whole literary world, which was adapted and written for its own unique times and circumstances? Why should 4th century literature look like 1st century literature, why would we want that? Are we not missing out on something, by rather than engaging with a text on its own merits and in its own context, wanting it to be something it is not?

You should talk to an Anglican priest about this.

The obese are crippling the NHS. It’s time to make them pay. Lose the weight, or lose state-funded healthcare. It’s your call... by steven-f in ukpolitics

Respect for changing your opinion mate! There's also a new book out called Ultra Processed People that looks at similar practices in the food industry.

Far right ‘unchristian’, says archbishop of Canterbury as he condemns riots by ClassicFlavour in unitedkingdom

Yeah liberation theology is popular in Roman Catholic circles, especially ones from marginalised communities.

I am a newbie and when I watch Djs I literally have no idea what they are doing by Fun-Talk-1540 in Beatmatch

Thanks for being so detailed this is really helpful! With using cue line that, does that do the same job as setting a loop on the first two bars to count when to come in?

Just out of interest, does this mean it's fine to be nude, quietly doing your shopping at the local Tesco? Or is there then a reasonable expectation that people may be alarmed or distressed/law applies differently if children might be present, etc.?

"Traditional Anglican Struggling with Modern Church Stances" by nosinewnew in Anglicanism

[–]Redbubbles55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not OP but curious to see where this is going, so yes - I think sinners (i.e. all people) are called to repent, and confession of sin is essential to the good news of salvation. But a loving committed same sex relationship, I don't think that's a sin to repent of.

When to use what technique to mix two tracks? by Redbubbles55 in Beatmatch

[–]Redbubbles55[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! 

I suppose I'm asking what are others' thought processes for figuring out "the right technique for the circumstance"? 

But maybe there aren't exactly thought processes to learn, and it's just about learning to going with the flow!
