@MeganKCoats @Svigel I was about to post this myself - I’ve not seen the movie but in the book, Harry’s willingness to die to save the others from the evil Voldemort , and then his “resurrection,” mimicked, to me, Christ’s sacrifice for us.

@RachelReneeRee1 To be fair, Turabian and Strunk and White are just for reference, but otherwise this list is outstanding. This must be a Christian or classical university

@SSurewould Envious you got to be there!

@bcastlemiller Your story breaks my heart.

But at 60, after yrs in Methodist, Presbyterian and Baptist churches in urban & rural Texas, I’ve never seen institutional abuse. I loved my seminary, love my church, and I crave the wisdom God gives me as a judge. Anyone out there like me?

My sustainability class just finished a module about disinformation. I had them write me a letter assuming they were flunking and arguing that they deserve an A, using the techniques of disinformation we discussed, like cherry picking, false experts and ad hominem. HOO-boy. 1/n

@martensmatt1 I wouldn’t do this myself, but I’ll have to admit I see its benefits.

[Kim Allen @Kimberly1909]

@martensmatt1 I agree, so this is not meant to be argumentative, but is punishment ever proper to achieve societal goals of deterrence? In some cases, I think the answer is yes.

@Svigel Are your lectures on this available to DTS alums? If so, what class are we looking for?

“Easter is also a reminder that the earth is good. Admittedly, this earth is currently a hot mess, and the Bible tells us it’s a mess we made (Gen. 3). But we’re nonetheless people made for earth. Since the beginning, we have been earthlings, and so it will be forever.”

@StratfordISD2 @DrMDomin84 Best wishes! We will miss you!

@NYFarmer We have many South African immigrant farm hands in our area. Most are at least tri-lingual - Afrikaans, English, Dutch and some German.

@gkreider Perhaps your benefactor grew weary in doing good.

@StratfordISD2 @wtamu @waltervwendler Congratulations!

@martensmatt1 As a prosecutor (likely to soon become district judge due to no opponent) and as a DTS grad, I am greatly looking forward to your book. Please keep us updated.
