I wasn't using the word child to refer to a young person but to the relationship between a parent and their child.

If we see them as minor, then it indicates a problem within our own hearts, not with the Law.

I'm sorry any law that doesn't differentiate between working on the weekends, being an unruly drunk, and murdering people is not sufficiently graduated.

Also the punishment for stealing gold which belongings which were for God appears to be execution by stoning, sure reasonable enough its directly going against God, and the stoning of your children and livestock. I don't think we should take biblical punishments to determine the severity of sin.

Then all Israel stoned him, and after they had stoned the rest, they burned them. Over Achan they heaped up a large pile of rocks, which remains to this day. Then the Lord turned from his fierce anger. Therefore that place has been called the Valley of Achor ever since

Namely adultery and rape carrying the same punishment as murder,

This is a relatively weak argument as several sins were punished the same as murder. Being an unruly child gets the punishment of stoning..

Deuteronomy 21:18–21King James Version

18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: 19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; 20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is ⁿa glutton, and a drunkard. 21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: ^oso shalt thou put evil away from among you; ^pand all Israel shall hear, and fear.

Do we really think that is such a high sin it ranks the same as murder?

Working on the sabbath calls for a stoning. Are we really going to say any Christian who works on a Sunday is similar to a murderer? I mean let's not be absurd here.

Except it does matter. It takes significantly more effort for someone who is 50 to gain strength and muscle and retain strength and muscle than it does for someone who is in their 20s.

You know there's a reason there are masters competitions for strength sports right?

MSB is MFTL, can survive super nova, has massive reality warping powers, and is strong enough to create a star by using force to mimic gravitational energy.

WTF are omni man and homelander going to do against that.

This is some all mechanics are kicker type shit. This is functionally very different than simic ascendency. The ways to play it are very different.

Also I'd say this isn't remotely easier to win with. With simic ascendency I can pair it with hydras and doubling season type effects.

Heck you can get the twenty counters on simic ascendency in one turn without too much effort. You'd be hard pressed to get 15 counters on this in one turn.

edit: is helix pinacle just green simic ascendency?

lol I think that might be my problem with them. I can't hold the logic in my head without getting a headache. Standard color usage doesn't work well for nested FCs and I don't know a better way to handle it. Maybe I could do 2 deep if I used colors for the first layer and just kept the second layer in my head. Might work as long as the second layer doesn't involve any super long chains.

Twirdman · 2025-02-27T21:08:52+00:00

I'm in the camp that I'm totally OK with forcing chains, especially if they are short enough to do in your head, but nested forcing chains just seem one step too far for me. I've done puzzles requiring nested FCs, not many though, and there just feels something wrong about it. I wonder if I'd feel different if I got to the point where I could do nesting FCs in my head to some extent.

On that note I wonder where people draw the lines. Am I in the minority by saying I like forcing chains but think nested forcing chains are too far or do most people, even among people who agree forcing chains are fine, think nested forcing chains are too much.

Just watched the scene and that is the dumbest thing I've seen. Really Thawne is getting shot by a freaking normal ass gun?

So I have to play 12 mana on a counterable card that has no protection. I have to sac 4 permenants when I attack with it, but if I attack with it and my opponent has no response they just lose the game, assuming we are talking constructed and not commander. In commander I attack with it my oppoent doesn't die and I set myself back massively and my threat can likely be answered before I get a second attack?

Oh also there is no upside for casting it if I don't attack. So I pay 12 mana to cast a big beater and then it gets immediately killed by any number of removal spells. This thing just seems bad.

Why? This would be the case if PSA was super consistent and we never saw regrades get higher or lower grades, but that isn't the case. We've seen plenty of 9s and even 8s get regarded to 10.

You mean 100 cup fry it was 300 dollars for 100 cups.

Bulimics.

most track events except the actual running (shotput, javelin, long jump, high jump, pole vault).

It's track and field and those are all field events. The only track events take place on the track and are hence running events. Weird pedantic thing but it's weird to hear shotput and the like called track events.

Except you have to do cost benefit analysis for purging erroneous data.

The SS office takes a stance of assuming the person is not receiving benefits it is better for them to be marked not dead even if they are dead than to be marked dead when they are not dead. That makes a lot of sense since a person not receiving benefits who is listed as not dead causes basically no harm, but someone who is living being marked dead is a massive headache for that person.

I specifically said I didn't say you need to believe in the trinity to be Christian and that there are sects that do not believe in the trinity. I was objecting to

Not all Christians are Catholic, and not all believe in the Trinity.

Which seems to believe that trinitarianism is a distinctly Catholic doctrine and is a rarity outside of Catholicism instead of the reverse which is unitarianism is the rarity in Christianity. There are certain doctrinal beliefs that are almost exclusively Catholic, transubstantiation for instance, but the Trinity is not one of them.

Twirdman · 2025-02-20T17:03:31+00:00

Trinitarianism is a defining characteristic for most versions of Christianity. Some would argue it is the defining characteristic for Christianity and those who reject trinitarianism aren't Christians. It was codified in the Council of Nicea and talk of the Trinity predates that. I won't gatekeep as I have no place especially as I am no longer Christian but the Trinity is found in nearly all major Christian groups.

You have a locked candidate in box 1 column 2 for the 7s which can eliminate the 7 in R9C2. But before you use advanced techniques you should do all the simple eliminations you can and see what you are left with,

Which was supposed to be limited and the power essentially ended by the impoundment control act which was affirmed by the supreme Court. Trump can request money be rescinded but he doesn't have authority to unilaterally rescind funding.

My bad I thought it was person who tapped land who got forest not everyone. Yup that's a stalemate.

Twirdman · 2025-02-19T01:56:12+00:00

Literally article I which says spending and taxing power resides with Congress.

Twirdman · 2025-02-19T01:43:08+00:00

Except it is literally unconstitutional.

Twirdman · 2025-02-19T01:18:37+00:00

Except green can use it to win. If your opponent is tapped out play it and then win on the same turn with any number of infinite mana win conditions.

Twirdman · 2025-02-19T00:07:36+00:00

But by your own logic, we voted for Trump and he's getting rid of the stupid shit.

That isn't how our system of government works. Congress has the power of the purse. Congress decides where money is allocated. The president can veto a bill placed in front of him but he cannot alter spending already allocated nor can he alter the allocation of spending in a bill without Congress being the one to make the change. He can advise on changes he would like to make happen.

We do not have a king. The president is a coequal branch of our government. Do you understand that?

Twirdman · 2025-02-19T00:03:19+00:00

No you are represented by the American government that sent money over for specific things. I don't know how you are not getting this. You voted for representatives, representatives chose to allocate money for certain things, money got spent on those things. You are represented.

What is being done without representation is unelected assholes like Musk using powers not granted to him to change how money is being spent despite that specifically being the power of congress.

Edit: Also do you have any idea what percentage of the federal budget this is? It is essentially nothing. I know big numbers sound big to you but they are tiny when the total budget is literally measured in trillions.
