@ByEricPratt The situation is bad in the Northeast as well-I’m from CT-parents are blacked out of Red Sox games, but their local cable TV provider doesn’t carry Boston Teams (Sox/Celtics/Bruins) as part of their regional sports package-Just New York Teams

@elonmusk @mattvanswol Also, if you are wanting to support educational charities, look for small Christian Schools in your local area, like this one in the Hartford, CT metro

@elonmusk @mattvanswol This is one reason why, if you are a Christian, you should find a good local church, and support their ministries with tithes and offerings as your main focal point for charitable giving

[James McMahon @COMPCON85]

@megbasham I absolutely affirm both the Nicene and Apostle’s Creeds, but they are not the be all and end all of Christian Orthodoxy; they are a great starting point, but as you said, there are issues today that the Early Church never had to deal with

[James McMahon @COMPCON85]

@AnalogRules61 @ChrisMaluta @BiblicalBeauty @petergoeman_ Not that I know of; and one AG church in TX that came out as LGBT affirming a few years back was almost immediately removed from the denomination

[James McMahon @COMPCON85]

@ChrisMaluta @BiblicalBeauty @petergoeman_ Yes, exactly; look at the Assemblies of God as an example of this

@AlTheBoss03 Jason Veritek, Dustin Pedroia come to mind as a Sox fan

@drantbradley The problem I have with the video is that as a Trump supporting evangelical, I have zero use for the racist, Jew-hating heretic Joel Webbon, and I think that the majority of MAGA evangelicals feel that same way I do (I hope so, anyway)

[James McMahon @COMPCON85]

@nosoup4knowles Who you calling old?!?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but yes, this is definitely true

…as well as deeply evil people like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris simply because “Orange Amán Bad”; because of this, it’s hard to take anything he says about the Scriptures seriously

[James McMahon @COMPCON85]

Two things can be true at once;
Sec Hegseth’s meme should bother Christians-as followers of Jesus, we should never take the killing of people, even evil men as part of a justified military operation, lightly. Ezekiel 33:11 says God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked…

[David French @DavidAFrench]

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.”

Isaiah 5:20

[James McMahon @COMPCON85]

…Terrorists, I can agree; if however, he is calling the killing itself evil, then he is flat wrong Biblically (Romans 13, as referenced by @megbasham)
Additionally, Mr French has spent the better part of the last 10 years defending grave moral evils (Drag Queen Story Hours)

@PeeNutGallery42 @RichJohnsonNFL @danorlovsky7 @UConnFootball Yes, exactly

[James McMahon @COMPCON85]

How about Uconn? With Mora heading to Colorado State, this would be a perfect time to bring a major UConn alum back to Storrs

ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky is a name that has been brought up as being a potential Head Coaching candidate.

The #Browns, #Titans, and #Steelers would be teams to watch here.

I’ve had my deep disagreements with Mr. Cosper, but this is the perfect response to that heretic Mr. Webbon. Thank you for your courage in this @MikeCosper

Joel , I am writing this with genuine concern for your soul, and the soul of the American church.

The correct question for a Christian is not "How many died in the Holocaust," but "How do I not bear false witness and break the ninth commandment?"

The 9th commandment is not just an admonition to tell the truth about the present; we're to tell the truth about the past. While I'm tempted to go scorched earth and point out every single stupid, ignorant, and irresponsible thing you and your cohosts said on that podcast about the Holocaust, I'm hoping it's so obvious that people stop taking you seriously, any more than they take Fuentes seriously, which is as a provocateur and troll, and not a pastor or a Christian. You foolishly pretend that the Holocaust is not one of the most thoroughly researched, documented, affirmed, and accounted for calamities in human history.

You hate modernity? You should hate the Holocaust more than anything — it's the culmination of everything one might critique about modernity: industrialization enabled mass extermination of humanity and mass cremation. The modern nation-state allowed for the statelessness of European Jews. Mass transportation allowed for the deportation of Jews in enormous numbers. Maybe lean into that instead of the garbage spewed by people like Daryll Cooper and Candace Owens.

I'm not saying you're not a Christian; so don't pretend I'm making some religious claim around this. I'm saying you're being some combination of evil, stupid, and irresponsible, and the result won't just be that you look like an evil person; it will be contributing to the overall permission structure of violence worldwide against Jews.

But hear this — There are multiple ways to break the ninth commandment. One is to simply lie. Another is to be a worm-tongued grifter who is 'just asking questions'. Another is to be profoundly stupid and authoritative on topics about which you clearly know nothing.

You have managed to do all three at once in that fecal festival of an episode on the Holocaust, and honestly, if anyone takes you seriously after that, that is a judgment on them as much as it is judgment on you. You embody the definition of a know-nothing, from you and your hosts misconstrued understanding of the term "Shoah" to your utterly idiotic comments about lack of evidence of gas chambers and crematoria.

You don't know what you are talking about. Period.

Furthermore, antisemitism persists not because Jews are unique authors of a particular evil; it is because — as the Apostle Paul said, "Salvation comes from the Jews." Jesus was and is will always be a Jew from Judea who took away the sins of the world. Even as the church has formed, extended, expanded that salvation, that root remains, and Satan hates it. Don't do his work.

One need not assign specific theological significance to the shock of the Holocaust, or the crematoria, the idea of sacrifice as you insisted. That's a straw man.

In fact many Jews rejected "Holocaust" for "Shoah" because the former was a greek term that invoked burnt sacrifice and the latter means "catastrophe" or "calamity" — in direct contrast to the nonsense your colleague spewed after his cursory misreading of a wikipedia page.

Likewise, one need not attribute the beauty of Jewish resilience in the aftermath of the second world war — the surprises of 1948... 1967... 1973... in order to say "The Jewish people have a right to return to their ancestral homeland, and they certainly have a right not to be swallowed up by Islamists on all sides who salivate for Jewish blood and a restoration of Islamic glory."

I mean this sincerely — I do not get what you're up to dabbling in a truly demonic evil. I suspect nothing I say will break through. But what you are doing is indulging a profound, ancient, demonic evil. The evil of the Amalekites. The evil of Haman. Have you not noticed that at the hands of providence, the fate of those who conspire in these ways turns badly for them... eventually.

Go read Esther, and see what happens when people indulge conspiracy theories about the Jewish people. Haman and Xerxes and the entire Persian empire disappear from history. Go to Auschwitz, where the gallows that hang Hoess still stand. By some mysterious fact of providence, as Walker Percy once put it, you can walk down the streets of every major city in the world, and you're not gonna meet an Assyrian or a Babylonian. Those civilizations collapsed and were assimilated into others. But you might meet a Jew, whose origins go back to Judea, and who is linked by both blood and providence to the word made flesh, the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.

What do you think is more likely... that the Nazis were the good guys, that conspiracist and revisionist history takes are right, that we need more Fuentes in our world and less @tedcruz ? Or maybe that an ancient, demonic hatred that began with a promise in the garden extends to this day... and you are fostering it?

I genuinely hope you'll think on this. For the sake of your soul, and any fools who would follow you into this profound evil.
