@JakeDoberenz um yeah so how is this not a big act of ego?

[Wes Cruse @WesCruse]

@EndOfDaysWoman welp ours is just encouraging acts of charity but allowing its residents or other Catholics in the archdiocese on that day to celebrate st. pats with all the corned beef our Irish souls desire 🤗

People are like, "If twitter is so terrible, why are you here?"
Because I'm a fool. Like, I'm literally an ape.
I am not some rational actor.
I'm a series of chemical reactions seeking not happiness or fulfillment or nuance but jolts of outrage, fascination, and thrill.

@JakeDoberenz I find I agree with the Psalmist’s recognition that wine gladdens the heart & is a good and gracious gift that I lovingly, humbly embrace

@masonmennenga @NoelJnks just fucking around is the lamest excuse in the book my dude

[Wes Cruse @WesCruse]

@masonmennenga specifically Heb. 4:12, 2 Tim. 3:16-17, Luke 11:28, and James 1:22. I’m all for blasting atrocious evangelical theology, but in this case you’d be talking past them who would be quick to toss those passages at ya

[Wes Cruse @WesCruse]

@masonmennenga yeahhh except this is a super binary take when, in fact, the Hebrew scriptures and the NT do indeed use the phrase word of God to refer to scripture soo how do you parse that? do you make the distinction between Jesus as Incarnate Word and scripture as another form of word?

@chadmeslinger @jacobhuneycutt_ people who want to sideline LDS people from Christianity haven’t spent that much time within LDS circles bc when you do, you realize they are incredibly Christ-centered in how they practice, profess, and understand the world

[Mason Mennenga @masonmennenga]

christian men will be like “i’m too conservative for liberals and too liberal for conservatives” and actually just be conservative
