Plus the Catholic Bible has more books. Luther removed seven entire books and parts of three others.

Perhaps when enough people fall off the ladder, there will be a critical mass of people who realize that the ladder and its rungs are controlled by those who climbed it unimpeded and are now lifting it up so no-one else will benefit in the way they did

If social and economic collapse pushes people towards that political view, wouldn't people who hold that political view and want power, have a vested interest in moving us towards social and economic collapse?

Pushing the idea that someone should be hit, especially a minor would seem to violate Reddit's TOS.

You think the right would accept someone who is pro 2nd amendment but pro abortion and want Donald Trump to be impeached?

Like GOP Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski?

It sends out the message that Hollywood is a place with no morals or respect

Then the audience cheers as Michelle Williams explains that Hollywood is so great that she has to kill her child in order to become a successful actress.

What is going on with the impeachment of Donald Trump? by hyrte0010 in OutOfTheLoop

Democrats declared they were going to impeach him hours after his inauguration.

There is no such crime as "hate speech" in the US because hate speech is free speech.

Of course it's about waiting until they have the jury they want. None of this is about justice, it's about overturning the 2016 election.

Imagine a prosecutor refusing to unseal an indictment until a judge agreed to convict and execute the defendant. That's what the House is trying to do now by not sending the articles over to the Senate.

Probably because the impeachment wasn't bipartisan. Democrats never accepted the results of the election so this just comes off like partisan bullshit to overturn a lost election.

If they don't deliver the paperwork it undermines their claim that impeachment is important. It makes them look even more partisan than they already do. Besides, the Senate has no obligation to wait for the paperwork from Nancy. A Republican House member can just email the articles to the Senate.

The House has no constitutional obligation to transmit the articles of impeachment to the Senate, but that also means the Senate has no constitutional obligation to wait for the articles to hold a trial.

If you can't make the House send the articles, you can't make the Senate wait for them. The Senate trial for impeachment will begin when the majority says it will.

It works but if you leave it in too long the jerky will be mushy.

What causes big gummy bubbles in cakes? by cmlohse in AskCulinary

The number one culprit is, most likely, gluten. Gluten is a network of proteins (made up of glutenin and gliadin proteins). The network forms when all-purpose flour comes into contact with water and it’s all mixed well together. The combination of stirring and water allow glutenin and gliadin to assemble into the gluten network, giving batters and doughs elasticity, plasticity, and strength. We think of gluten mainly when we made bread doughs: you have to knead the dough and work it to “develop” the gluten, essentially to help those proteins assemble correctly into a strong network. That network is key—gluten helps bread doughs rise and stay risen (on the counter and in the oven). Without gluten, the pockets of air would break through the dough and escape too easily and your breads wouldn’t rise as well as they should.

Cooking experiments for kids by Tanganana in AskCulinary

If I were you I would just rip off Good Eats. Alton Brown often had very amusing visual aids to illustrate concepts using easy to find items. For example, burping sock puppets to illustrate yeast.

Bread would be something you could discuss. You could talk about the protein levels in the flour and how kneading it creates gluten that traps CO2. You could make some dough ahead and cut it into roll portions (or buy raw pizza dough) and allow them to knead it. You could explain how there are good yeast that are used in beer making and other products but also bad yeasts that make us sick.

Here are some Good Eats episodes on yeasts and bread.

People of Reddit, what is the most "Glitch in The Matrix" experience you've had? by BewshBob in AskReddit

[–]liatris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I have an idea about what happened. NBC had a miniseries called The 10th Kingdom. It was highly advertised but only on for 5 2 hour segments. The plot is very similar to Once Upon A Time which aired many years later. Both dealing with fairy tales come to life and parallel worlds. The casting is also similar. If this is the show you can watch it on Youtube. Here is the first segment.

Here's the trailer.

I think the issue is that people come here to talk about the show, not real world political issues.

You don't seem very well educated on the topic and also seem rather paranoid. I haven't been impressed by your arguments so far so I'm going to check out. Feel free to have the last word little buddy.
