@SpuddieG The ability to quickly read critical information and make relevant decisions, possibly in writing, is a necessary skill on the battlefield.

When I was Muslim, I never asked who built the golden calf. I just knew it was a sin in the desert.

Then I read both accounts and one detail stopped me cold.

In the Bible, the man who builds the golden calf is AARON. Moses�� own brother. The first high priest. Exodus 32:4.

He gathers the gold, melts it, shapes the idol. And when Moses confronts him, he gives the weakest excuse in scripture: “I threw the gold in the fire and out came this calf.” As if it made itself.

Bro. The Bible just put the worst sin in the camp in the hands of the holiest man in the camp.

You would NEVER write that if you were protecting your prophets.

Now read the Quran. Surah 20. Aaron is cleared. Innocent. He tried to stop it. The blame goes to a mystery man called “al-Samiri.” The Samaritan. Surah 20:85.

You know what shook me? The Bible incriminates its own high priest.

The Quran writes him an alibi and invents a villain.

One reads like an honest record. The other like damage control.

And there’s a second problem with that villain. “The Samaritan.” But Samaritans didn’t exist in Moses’ time.

The city of Samaria wasn’t founded until about 500 years later, under King Omri. 1 Kings 16:24.

It’s like putting a Texan at the Last Supper.

Now, some Muslim scholars push back — they say “Samiri” means something else. I’ll be fair, that argument exists. But their own classical commentators read it as “the Samaritan” for centuries.

The defense only works by re-translating away from how the tradition always understood it.

I used to say the Bible was corrupted. But the Bible is honest enough to say the high priest built the idol.

Only a book honest about how bad we are could point me to a Savior real enough to fix it.

The Bible never flattered Aaron. It didn’t flatter me either. It just told me the truth, and handed me Jesus.

@JoshuaBarzon It doesn’t necessarily need to be live, but recording sermons/full worship services also gives potential visitors a chance to preview, so to speak.
Plus, it’s clear that people all over the world listen to the sermons.

@ThymeToBeBorn I’ll be 50 in August. Started babysitting at 11 for neighbors, around 14 for folks farther away.

If @SenWarren shared her $67M and lived on the $285K (itself a great salary) every public school teacher in her state could receive a $900 bonus and she would still make more than 3x the average salary of those teachers.

If each member of Congress donated just one of their kidneys, we could get 535 people off of dialysis.

There are currently 190,000 children in Chicago living below the poverty level.

For the price of the $900 million Obama library, we could have given each one of these poor children in Chicago $4,736.

Am I doing this right?

[Anna Phillips @CameronFromNC]

@JoshuaBarzon When possible, yes. We should be able to spend the Lord’s Day together. It also provides opportunities for those unable to attend in the morning. We’re in a military town, so that’s a common problem.

[Anna Phillips @CameronFromNC]

@realangrypom And you can do that if you disclose it upfront.
