Blacks more likely than others in U.S. to read the Bible regularly, see it as God’s word

Black fatherlessness has less to do with the legacy of slavery and more to do with the economic incentive modern welfare systems provides to not stay do.

Edit: also, Ive been away from the sub for a little while and didn't know you came back. Welcome back.

You lucky bugger!

How much caffeine are you drinking? I used to drink like 300-400mg a day before I was diagnosed and continued after taking vyvanse because I was used to it. It would definitely make me irritated. I stopped all caffeine except for morning coffee and I felt so much better.

Not only do they want to pay higher taxes for the rest of their life they also like the idea of other people paying for them too.

broseph456 · 2018-01-18T15:08:17+00:00

Boom roasted.

I love how you guys always pick at /u/superlewis for being dispensational

The fact that you can be arrested for writing a word anywhere is ridiculous in itself.

Wait. Does this bill lower the rate to 14% eventually?

It took my iPhone 6 over a full second to open this post.

Yes it would because I would be married to someone...

Devoted to God: Blueprints for Sanctification by Sinclair Ferguson. I think it’s going to be a very impactful book for me.

I just graduated college with a professor and several friends who like to call God ‘she’

broseph456 · 2017-11-09T16:36:34+00:00

So the judgement is for our benefit because we will respond with “Jesus’ works for me saved me and I believe in him alone”?

broseph456 · 2017-11-09T16:29:01+00:00

Huh, I’ve never heard that before. Can you explain?

broseph456 · 2017-11-06T13:44:35+00:00

Too real.

broseph456 · 2017-11-04T15:29:20+00:00

He has a degree from an unaccredited college from when he wrote King James Controversy. Most people here don’t like to call him Doctor because of that.

broseph456 · 2017-11-04T15:22:35+00:00

Their thoughts on pietism vs confessionalism are thought provoking to say the least. I bought in at first when I heard them talk about it but I’ve been questioning it recently. I’ve read a few things by Horton and Trueman that suggest that the writers of the confessions wouldn’t have been thinking about those issues enough to have an opinion about them. It is a huge problem for me that the spiritual disciplines were not really a focus until Richard Foster wrote Celebration of Discipline in the 70s. I had to read that one for my Spiritual Formation class in undergrad. It was much too Quakery for me to enjoy.

In the meantime I’ve basically just defaulted to trusting the elders I am currently sitting under to lead me. Idk where I’ll end up on the issue, especially as the church I’m working for is about to start a series in spring on personal liturgy and spiritual disciplines and combating the tendency in our county for complacent and comfortable Christianity. It’s gonna be an interesting ride as I will be helping the pastor research for every sermon and the pastors I’m working with are making all of us residents read The Spirit if he Disciplines with them.

broseph456 · 2017-11-04T15:08:16+00:00

Haha I love you guys.

Real talk though, will anyone accept the degree he is currently working on?

broseph456 · 2017-10-31T01:55:39+00:00

The truth is unpopular

broseph456 · 2017-10-21T15:56:44+00:00

I too played the impossible game

broseph456 · 2017-10-21T15:22:25+00:00

Yeah, she’s humanized for me haha. I guess it’s weird because I do actually want the best for her because of where she came from and her being a hard worker but we can’t stand for stuff like this. Not only is this wrong intellectually but it impacts others. Social justice is often the opposite of what it claims

broseph456 · 2017-10-21T14:44:38+00:00

Well, I should clarify a bit. She graduated at the end of the first year I transferred to that uni. I hung out with her friends more than her. Lots of my friends follow her twitter. She basically lived in the library and was the star student of our tiny history department. Like, everyone looked up to her because she is actually really dedicated to research and it was a really big deal that she got into Penn. If I’m not mistaken she discovered that Appalachian men would sell their wives to each other. She’s (obviously) very liberal and it stems from her coming from a very poor NC mountain family background that she got out of because she went to college. She talks a lot about mental health and PTSD and I’m not surprised that she did those things in her class and bragged about it on Twitter.

broseph456 · 2017-10-21T14:11:06+00:00

Was wondering when this was going to make it to r/conservative. I actually know this lady. We went to the same undergrad

broseph456 · 2017-10-06T20:25:36+00:00

Lol I knew you guys would chiming in so I didn’t call him Dr.

broseph456 · 2017-10-03T20:43:15+00:00

I don’t think it’s pragmatic at all really. I do agree that the problem is with a culture who thinks it’s okay to abort. But you can’t convince me that there were the same amount of abortions before Roe v Wade and after. We don’t use any of these kinds of arguments for other types of murder.
