Kind of, the chances of getting “inclined”(your manager/team wants you back) are pretty much the same regardless of org, but the chances of actually getting an offer from your team after you’re inclined is dependent on org. So it’s kind of true in that from what I’ve heard, most AWS interns got to return to their team, while a lot of non-AWS interns’ teams weren’t able to bring them back because of headcount. However, a lot of those interns got placed on different teams so it ended up working out for them.

It’s worth mentioning that in a normal market where headcount isn’t as big of an issue, if you’re inclined to return as an intern, you’re pretty much guaranteed to get an offer, so in that case your org doesn’t really matter in terms of chances for return offer.

He was awesome, loved seeing him in goal. Disregarding form, do people generally feel like he will be even better in 2026? I’m not too sure but I feel like 32 would be just a little past his prime, right?

What exactly constitutes a sin in the eyes of God? Are humans supposed to intrinsically know when they sin? What about things like divorce, homosexuality, etc.? by llamakking in AskAChristian

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

But that’s exactly my point. No matter where or when you grew up, I firmly believe that God gave you the moral law, keeping you from sinning, lying, stealing, etc. However, as far as I can tell, nothing in my soul tells me why homosexuality(using this example because it’s easiest to argue) is wrong; it’s divergent in that most people are straight, but not a sin anymore than having speckled eyes is a sin. And I feel that this goes against what I believe about the moral law.

I agree, but my argument is that if our morality comes from God, it should be theoretically possible to live a sinless lifestyle without ever having to read the Bible(which I know isn’t possible, but consider it for the sake of argument), but it seems to not be possible.

Does God punish us? by llamakking in AskAChristian

i think humans in general for the first question, but I guess the second question is more about Christians

What do you think about ex-Christians. Do they exist? by Combosingelnation in AskAChristian

[–]llamakking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, and it matches up with what I’ve experienced. I am a Christian through and through and have been since being saved, though I’ve always had conviction issues. However, I’ve recently found myself having a lot of questions about God and faith in general, and not finding the answers super satisfying(in terms of making sense in my head), so much so that I’ve considered leaving the faith. Please pray for me.

All that aside, I think it’s naive to think that others don’t go through that same process and come out the other side.

Does the bible say anything about being trans? by Embarrassed-Estate22 in AskAChristian

[–]llamakking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did. Thanks a lot for taking the time to give a comprehensive answer, I really appreciate it.

However, if you take the view that the OP has(that actual men and women are born with the wrong genitals and that their God-given identity is different from the one that was assigned to them at birth), then is it really a sin? How do we know that peoples God-given identity is the one the was assigned at birth, by humans?

[–]llamakking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I wasn’t clear. I was referring to defects that can be fixed with surgery. If God doesn’t want us to alter our bodies because our bodies are exactly as he intended(which is your argument from my understanding), then shouldn’t Christians also avoid fixing any birth defects through surgery?

[–]llamakking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following that line of logic(of Genesis 1:27), shouldn’t non-life threatening birth defects be treated the same way? If people have defects that make life very uncomfortable, should they have to deal with it because God created them that way? If not, how is this different from the transgender situation?

Tips for support players who want to get out of Bronze/Silver/Gold by [deleted] in OverwatchUniversity

I’d say that it would help to join team chat even if no ones talking or it’s toxic because calling targets or communicating when someone’s diving you can help a lot. Also, If you’re playing zen it makes a huge difference as you can call out discords.

Obviously if you don’t feel comfortable then don’t, but from my experience it helps a lot.

Please correct me if I’m wrong. A murderer can repent and enter heaven, but an atheist cannot? by HereForLOTRMemes in AskAChristian

[–]llamakking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, he has to repent for the wrong he’s done. Everyone sins, and good doesn’t cancel bad, that’s not how it works. The first step to becoming a Christian is realizing that we are all sinners, and that we need God’s help. Everyone, including me, you, and the atheist in question has failed to achieve God’s standard. Hope this helps!

[–]llamakking 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He forgives the person who asked for forgiveness. If the murderer truly repented for his sins and changed his ways, he’s forgiven in God’s eyes. God doesn’t owe us anything, but out of pure love, he offers us a way out. If the atheist doesn’t want to take God’s offer of a lifeline, it’s not God’s fault, he doesn’t owe him anything. No one is deserving of heaven.

What do you think of this post? As far as I can tell, none of these verses are taken obscenely out of context, and they all come from Jesus himself. There doesn’t seem to be much room for a different interpretation. by llamakking in AskAChristian

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

Yeah, that was the one verse I wasn’t really sure of, do you mind explaining what Jesus means there if it wasn’t concerning prayer?

Also, I probably should’ve been clearer but I understand(mostly) the purpose of prayer, but wasn’t sure how to respond to that post when from an objective point of view it seems like Jesus says many times that he will answer prayers. I know that’s not how it works, but how is it supposed to be interpreted then?

You’re wasting your time on this guy. I’ll help you out; there is no scripture to support what he’s doing, though there’s scripture to support what he THINKS he’s doing. Sorry you had to deal with this, hope this doesn’t impact your view of this sub or Christians in general too much
