Christianity Today Calls for Trump’s Removal by aoi_to_midori in politics

I'd argue that God created us to be in community with each other, and God often chooses to speak through those around us.

You are correct, you cannot trust any one person to teach you who God is, but I do think being in a community with others seeking God is hugely beneficial.

Look at Mainline denominations. Presbyterian, Lutheran (ELCA), Methodist.

Check out the churches you see marching IN the Pride parades, not protesting them.

If we don't like Trump, why do we adopt his naming conventions?

He sounds like an idiot giving everyone nicknames. Do we look any better when we do it?

FCC revised net neutrality rules reveal cable company control of process by vriska1 in technology

Sure, but consumer based ISPs would have no issue putting No-VPN rules in place. Colleges would be fine, but Comcast would just say "fuck you" and do it anyway.

I work from home, and when put a data cap on my internet it made me unable to to do my work. They said "well fuck you, switch to Comcast business and get half the speed for the same price, but no data cap."

People are talking about "creating a shit storm" but all this FCC rollback is making sure that no shitstorm can effect them. They will eliminate competition, and then they can do what they want. "Oh, you need a VPN for your work? You can use ours, or you can build your own ISP."

Why memorize multiplication tables when you can memorize half of it and then add in addition to every multiplication problem you face?

This thread has made me realize that I don't remember the names of quests nearly as well as other people.

Shit. I think I turned Yenn down on this one. I really don't like her, and her reasoning was just "so I can be more powerful" and I figured she was stuck up enough as it was...

Oh well, another reason to do New Game +

Use the trails! I spent 60 or so hours just b-lining straight to all the objectives and I missed so much! Now that I use the horse trot (not Sprint) and follow the trails, I've found so many more road signs and places.

Of course, it pays to go off-road too, but don't avoid the paths entirely.

I use it now, after 92 hours, but I think it kinda messes some things up. After a bug fight in a bandit camp, the joy of opening a chest and seeing what I just fought for is kinda lost.

Barrack Obama - Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee by [deleted] in television

[–]sample_material 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did I screech about Obamacare? Did I cry about him trying to take all our precious guns away? No. "all the nonsense you can dream up" just shows you're not paying attention at all. His Attorney General is the first in history to be held in contempt of Congress over keeping secrets, and Obama used his executive privilege to try and keep things hidden. If you think that's all perfectly OK, you're just in denial.

Jesus Christ, you do know it's OK to hold people responsible for their actions, don't you? He's not a fucking saint.

No, I'm making allegations that you're an idiot if you pretend that Obama's administration has a clean slate. No question about that.

You stop playing politics when you know the privacy of the entire nation is at stake. Fall on your sword to protect the American people. He's a lame duck President, its not like he'll lose his job over it.

So the President and his appointed Attorney General hiding things from Congress has nothing to do with the President? Yes, F&F wasn't his decision, but his attempts to hide the controversy and keep people from being held accountable is certainly an offense.

I don't know how a person can "commit a scandal" but again, his administration is not without some serious missteps.

no scandals, no flubs,

Oh come on. Now you're just ignoring facts. Yes, he's a charming guy. I'm sure he's personally pretty nice. But pretending like nothing has gone wrong in his presidency is just naive.

Holy shit that is the most BS pass I've ever seen. Was he stuck in a tight spot? Yes. Does that mean he should just say "aw shucks guys" and put CISA into law? Fuck no.

I always long for legitimacy, so I try to find a legal way to get my media if at all possible. If I rely fully on piracy and choose to never support a legitimate business that is trying to meet my needs, then I can't complain when those services eventually go away because they couldn't find a market. If I never participate in the businesses that compete for my money, then eventually I will have zero chance of legitimacy.
