@JamesHu27192912 I'm mid-70s. Worked at computer help desks for nearly 30 years. Yes, health organizations and other organizations' cell phone requirements often make it hard for us oldsters. An app for primary MD, one for ENT, one for hospital, etc.

@waytruthlife416 @rock_breakin @MikeWingerii I know tomatoes. What is the new meaning of "overpowered"?Stronger? Better? Surprisingly strong? Stronger than necessary? I was asking a lexical question. Can a shirt be OP? A rake? A house?

[Jim Swindle @JimSwindle6]

@waytruthlife416 @rock_breakin @MikeWingerii And what does overpowered in this context?

@Linda82982011 @RobSchneider @TPUSA It's necessary to force some people into compliance, such as those who want to be murderers, rapists, or thieves.

@DocPriyamMD I read somewhere that DMSO at a medium dose (whatever that is) may decrease blood clumping without inhibiting needed clotting. Thoughts?

@myockey @Pastor_Gabe We can pray to the Father or to Jesis the Son or to the Spirit. It doesn't make sense to thank the Father for dying for us. I think it's also a bit odd to pray to Jesus and close "in Jesus' name" or "in your name."

Hitler was an occultist who lived by drugs. He wanted to exterminate Jews and other people he considered defective. He didn't keep promises. He was a socialist, which never has worked well long-term. He and Nazism were truly evil.

Caring about animals is very good. Caring about people, including the unborn, is even better.

@KristenS95374 @VigilantFox So, science says the vaccines never have unintended bad side effects? And science says that when there's correlation, we must not look to see whether there's a causal link? And COVID vaccines were 100% safe and 100% effective?

@Thatbrian @JasonRitchze No. Proud amateur Greek leads to cults. Humble amateur Greek can be fine.

[Jim Swindle @JimSwindle6]

@JasonRitchze @Thatbrian After a deeper dive, my understanding is that the grammar of John 1:1 permits either "was God" or "was a god," and may be saying "had the quality of being deity." Other passages show Jesus' full deity.

@indexnforgetit This was 2016. The experience helped me understand why they were (abd maybe still are) the nation's highest-volume Toyota dealer.

[Jim Swindle @JimSwindle6]

@indexnforgetit I walked in to Fred Haas Toyota. "Will you sell me a new Corolla for $___?" (A low price.) "What color?" Agreed on white. I sat in one to be sure I fit. Bought no extras but floor mats. Paid part credit card, mostly check. Easy.

@rico_tamales @HilaireNereus Remember that Jesus and his 12 apostles were all Jews.

@Thatbrian The JW gospel is false.

[Jim Swindle @JimSwindle6]

@Thatbrian JWs point out rightly that in Greek, any noun without "the" usually means "a" thing. Hence, "a god." But they miss Colwell's rule (look it up) which explains why that's not always the case, such as here.

Our goal in speech: speak truth firmly, boldly, and plainly without sliding into bad speech. No gossip or hatred; no profanity (treating the holy as common) or obscenity (treating the dirty as clean); no using curses as exclamation points. Let's keep aiming at the goal.

[Jim Swindle @JimSwindle6]

@painmute @sola_chad @JoelWebbon Yes. The challenging goal: speak truth firmly, boldly, and plainly without sliding into bad speech. No gossip or hatred; no profanity (treating the holy as common) or obscenity (treating the dirty as clean); no using curses as exclamation points. Let's keep aiming at the goal.

Let no unwholesome word proceed out of your mouth, but only that which is good for building up, that it may give grace to the listeners.
Ephesians 4:29 MEV

There's never a good time to use curses or obscenities as mere exclamation points.
