Re: Carmack/Skousen: "Virtually none of the grammatical variants listed in section 4-archaic grammar are archaic."

the rest of what I wrote over there: I can think of one set of consistent facts to fit the scenario. Wiki says that in 2011 about 5% of the content was made available for free. There is also a trial version available, which I assume is also free for a certain period of time (don't know about content...

The gospel of Q

In an effort to better understand where subs and Ajax are coming from, I've done some light reading on the origins of Q. It all started on a Saturday, the twenty-eighth of October 2017 in the twilight hours of Daylight Savings, with news that the Mueller probe had their first indictment ready to go....

Re: A Special Video Message of Hope and Healing Is Coming From the Prophet November 20

Ratzinger wrote a book and in it he discussed what it meant to be an Old Testament prophet. (Jesus of Nazareth: From the Baptism in the Jordan to the Transfiguration.) And that was basically to warn the people against their sins . Would Ratzinger pay 10% of his income to have a random guy warning h...

Re: A Special Video Message of Hope and Healing Is Coming From the Prophet November 20

When you have smart folks at the national and state level encouraging people to wear masks you are then requiring President Nelson to explicitly do the same or you’re calling out his prophetic leadership? You’re willing to die on that hill? Yes. You might have a point if everyone were taking it ser...

Re: Shut Up

]My second is to return to a line of thought prompted by Sub's last free speech post: how does the current effort to sabotage our election process through the deliberate telling of lies stack up with the already recognized exceptions to free speech? The only thing subs cares about in his OP is for ...

Re: My Post Election Experience with a Friend

Re: My Post Election Experience with a Friend

It's amazing to me that most right-wingers are willing to risk a dictatorship on low taxes. I do believe most who voted Trump are in fact, only voting by their wallet, and another slice are generically afraid of 'socialism'. The problem is, there aren't enough of these people to win an election, and...
