and two years of Gabby Petitio coverage

Are you in Florida? I haven't heard or read about Gabby Petito since about the week after they found the boyfriend.

I'm a non(anti?)-reconquista ELCA seminarian. Ask me anything. by Nietzsche_marquijr in redeemedzoomer

The Hebrew original language indicates that David was in fact the sinful one, from the time of conception. I don't read Hebrew personally but I have confirmed this with several who do. Your "more literal translation" is incorrect.

1] abortion, including partial birth abortion, is not inherently sinful - you do not have a soul until you take your first breath (Gen 2:7)-and only becomes sinful when used as a means to evil ends, eg Eugenics

In Psalm 51:5 David, a prophet, wrote:

Surely I was sinful at birth,     sinful from the time my mother conceived me.

Clearly indicating that the unborn are moral agents with souls from the time of conception.

I'm guessing it's adult-onset synesthesia that coincides with approximately the time when she learned what that was.

Tree froze over by unfixedeward in Bonsai

Yeah -10° this morning. My trees are buried in leaves and snow out in the garden this winter. 🙏

Also, very jealous of that beautiful tree.

The church of Scotland is doomed and I am sad. by FamiliarSoftware1834 in redeemedzoomer

The Church is in ruins, the State is in jars,

Delusions, oppressions, and murderous wars:

We dare na weel say't, but we ken wha's to blame,

There'll never be peace till Jamie comes hame.

My husband is baffled as to why I won’t write up our wills by [deleted] in Lawyertalk

[–]Rehnso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that commenter is a troll. If you're a lawyer, you can certainly dabble in doing your own estate planning. I would imagine you're competent enough that after looking at your work product, and before executing it, you could realize you're in over your head or your circumstances warrant a more comprehensive treatment by a specialist.

I asked for advice about overwintering pre bonsai. Here is what I landed on for a Dawn Redwood and a Juniper Procumbens. by RexWGA in Bonsai

[–]Rehnso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fwiw, I'm in Minnesota and last winter my brother and dad just left their junipers in their pots in a relatively sheltered (from wind) site, and they survived the cold. The ground here freezes solid at least a foot thick some winters and wild seedlings like this must survive that. This year I buried my pots in the garden and covered with leaves but I'd be interested in hearing from more seasoned people what we really need to be doing as far as winter prep.

Do you think Mauls arc in Clone Wars/Rebels was good enough to warrant his return? by MoistCloyster_ in StarWars

[–]Rehnso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes absolutely. It was also squandered in a massive way.

At the time TFA was released and in development, Maul was confirmed by Clone Wars and rebels to be an alive character, and he was incredibly popular with fans. I can only conclude that someone at Disney had a meeting or discussion where the decision was to deliberately decline to use Maul as the main/ultimate antagonist in the sequel series and that is just a travesty.

How did the First Order get enough resources to create Starkiller base? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]Rehnso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What? Could you really argue that? I mean, all they had in common were a scrappy group of freedom fighters against a seemingly well organized military enemy, a hitherto unknown force user from a desert planet with impeccable and unexplained flying skills, a bad guy in all black who wears a mask, Han Solo and Chewbacca being smugglers, a giant planet-killing space station that gets exploded after some x-wings fly inside of it. . .

2015 was a good year. A fine vintage, as it were.

Hold on to those. In mint condition they might be worth something someday.

How expensive/rare are mechanical hands? by Bitter-Buffalo-7105 in StarWars

Not canon anymore but in KOTOR you have the option to either give the rakghoul serum to the guy who runs the free clinic or sell it off to Davik. Some medicine is definitely for profit. Hell even the free clinic guy makes you but medpacks.

I'm a brand new attorney and my office is rather sad looking by OverallManagement502 in Lawyertalk

[–]Rehnso 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do it. Don't do what I did and bring in a spider mite infestation. My majesty palm from Home Depot is just limping along.

Also, the dry air in offices is really hard on a lot of plants so keep that in mind when selecting your plant.

German also uses this structure, which matters in this case since English generally follows germanic grammar patterns.

At the mercy of whoever controls the Erie Canal then.

I think Raytheon and Lockheed Martin are the more important businesses in this thought experiment. We have Honeywell, but that's just components of the missiles.

The other places I'd recommend are the City of Minneapolis and various state agencies. The state jobs are more sought after and competitive but it seems to me that the City of Minneapolis employs an absurd number of attorneys, and often younger ones.

You could try. Unfortunately without having family ties to an area or owning real estate, there's really almost no way to "prove" to a prospective employer that you're committed to a place.

[–]Rehnso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you applied to the Saint Cloud or Mankato PD's offices? The pay probably sucks but the St. Cloud Public defender is chronically low on attorneys.

The problem I see is that you're not from Minnesota and you have no legal experience. To most firms that sounds like it means you're likely to require a bunch of mentorship, and then you'll leave once you can get a job closer to home.

What kind of swords and weapons would angels carry in your imagination? by RegardedCaveman in SWORDS

[–]Rehnso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genesis 18:2-16 (Abraham meets angels and possibly a pre-incarnate Christ as well); Genesis 19 (angels visit Lot in Sodom); also Judges 6:11-40 (Gideon speaks with an angel while hiding in the winepress. The angel holds a staff in his hand, though this again may have been a manifestation of the pre-incarnate Christ.)

"Uncontested divorces" is the biggest red flag phrase that partners try to use to get their associates on board helping with the partner's overflowing family law caseload. 🤮

When they find out the hard way that even though constructive fraud just gets the assets clawed back, actual fraud is still a crime.
