@GregGutmann @stealthygeek No, Tesla did not make a profit on their vehicles. You really need to stop saying that.

Tesla made a profit by selling credits.

I guess you missed that point.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@Ctborum @Brcremer What level of evil that you've brought into the world would you like Jesus to prevent you from doing?

I'd just like to know what decisions you'd like to have removed from your own life.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@GregGutmann @stealthygeek Because you wanted to compare Tesla with other companies. You're trying to compare a BEV only startup with established ICE manufacturers. That's not a legitimate comparison.

Ford has how many vehicles sold? ~73M (since 2008) compared to 3M from Tesla.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@GregGutmann @stealthygeek You're comparing apples to farts and expecting folks to be okay with that?

What ICE vehicles did Tesla sell? What existing ICE vehicles are they supporting?

No company is going to abandon profitable product and retool for a diff market.

Yes, better quality. Tesla's is garbage.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@GregGutmann @stealthygeek Seems like a bit of a setup. Tesla didn't have any profitable ICE vehicles in production and no existing products to support.

Ford's electrics are better quality than Tesla's and should be up to 600k by 2023.

@strangefigures2 What? Where did Dreher fit in this?

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals As I never claimed the two were the same, I'm not sure why you'd assume as much.

But I don't wish to continue a conversation and encourage your rudeness.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals It does pose a problem with your reading of the requirements of a deacon/overseer.

Context is important.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals Nah, I'm fine with Paul. I don't particularly care for inconsistent and misogynist readings of the text.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals What else could I do in the face of insults (rather than citation)?

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@LeonardoXCIX @1689caveman @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals I think you're making up "deaconess."

I know why.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals No, it is something that you need to address. Why would she be listed first among the Roman Christians (28 of them) in Rom 16.3-5?

Why would no one have a problem with a woman in leadership, even co-leader in a church?

You have a problem that the ancients didn't.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals I'm not Reformed, so those labels don't apply to me. ;)

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals I think I'd like you to explain Acts 18.18, Acts 18.26, Rom 16.3 and 2Tim 4.19.

Only twice is her name last.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals Ah, your uncited opinion carries much more weight than mine. /Sarcasm

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals It isn't because you say so?

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals Of course, since everything was written in maguscule I see how you can tell the difference.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals Passage?

Who is listed first and why?

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals Ah, nice switcheroo.

Name one passage with a male pastor or "complete authority within the corporate assembly."

I already asked you whether Paul or Timothy was listed first.

[Benjamin Hobbs @FiringOnAllFive]

@1689caveman @LeonardoXCIX @CheeseWhizKid1 @smashbaals And what of the passages which have women leading in ministry?

You have to ignore or explain them away rather than taking them for what they are.

Your position is why Junia was read as Junias for so long.
