@DuncanHegan1 They might need something to tide them over until their first NHS Consultant's payslip comes through...

@WalkerMarcus We normalise looking at our phones every few minutes, in meetings and while socialising, but if a chap pulls out a slim volume of Restoration poetry, or perhaps starts flicking casually through a pocket-sized Constitution of India, suddenly he's the weird one. It makes no sense.

@debbiebarnes66 @shaynewiskin I have sat with family members overnight in A&E... we obviously ate in that time, used the vending machines, were offered tea by the hospital, etc...

Have recently completed the original Star Wars Trilogy with my almost-5-year old. We stuck on Episode 1, and as the opening crawl starts, she turns to me and asks, "Are they going to build another Death Star?" 🤣

I cannot recommend studying at @OakHillLondon highly enough. Here’s some of the assignments I’ve been set during my time here:

• An outline of the major biblical-theological and hermeneutical convictions that determine my understanding of Sabbath rest.

@FormerPreacherX @BMcGrewvy Do you not know London, or do you have a particular axe to grind with the various faithful and liturgical churches there?

You were watching PawPatrol on YouTube after curfew were you not?

Elon Musk has become the world's first trillionaire.

To put that into perspective, he could now build four bike sheds and still have enough money left for a round of drinks in Temple Bar.

Just finished watching Star Wars with my almost-5-year-old.

As soon as she saw the Death Star blow up, she turned to me and asked, "Will they build another Death Star?"

Accidentally re-inventing “thinking” from first principles

[Sam Peilow @SamuelSPeilow]

@RDLaverty Some of this arises from the fact that NI was *mistakenly* reported to be the most dangerous place in Europe for women - by the time our police service had challenged this and gotten the data corrected, the talking point was well established.

@2D0XPS I saw a message circulating this morning, dictating areas for protests, roads and roundabouts to close, and closing time for shops and businesses. They have all that infrastructure and knowledge sitting ready to go...

@TomasJHeneghan @FondOfBeetles Backs something up without understanding it.

Insists everyone who disagrees or questions it is an ideologue.

Classic.

I was raised Mormon and it took me a long time to understand how fundamentally different it is from historic Christianity. Even as recently as 3 years ago, I didn't get why it was a big deal that we didn't believe in the Trinity

Mormon theology does not present God as an "uncaused cause", existence itself, the "Logos". In Mormonism, God *is* a "man in the sky", a created being, someone who was once human but is now exalted within our known universe. This opens up a lot of problems imo. For example: what happens when death and evil are overcome on our planet, and you reach exaltation? You are now a God of a new universe/planet to create a new race of humanity and evil arises all over again and the drama continues into eternity? There is no message of the ultimate overcoming of death/evil as in historic Christianity

In all my childhood and young adult instruction in the LDS church, I never learned that Jesus was "God in the flesh" or anything like that. Jesus really was taught as a distinct BEING from God the Father (who again... Is a *created being*). It is a fundamentally different Christ that is believed and worshipped.
