@OwnYourWrldview @MonradMonsen @Soteriology101 The context supports "all people," not "all kinds of people."

[bundyw @dfziklag]

17.6 refers to a geographic region, and is clearly hyperbole. If we want to take 17.30 as something less than everyone in history, it seems the only real choice we have is to take it as the same kind of hyperbole referring to the same geographic region.

I don't see any way to get to "all kinds of people."

My ex made me sleep in the guest bedroom for three days after each trip. At the time, I was traveling for work about 20'ish times per year ... taking red eyes, etc., so I could minimize my "hotel nights." I don't travel that much any more ... thankfully.

Anyway, one of the various reasons she is now my ex.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@OwnYourWrldview @MonradMonsen @Soteriology101 Then it's a merism that includes ... everyone. Ironic.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@JackPosobiec Nope.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@BethanyMcGrew @tomascol Why should they ask the /women/, specifically? They shouldn't ask the men? Or the elders? Or the children?

Nope, just the women ... because clearly women are more spiritual and wiser, right?

How absurd.

@WellsJorda89710 "Tolerance," like all the words progressives use, means the opposite of the actual definition.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@Bushra1Shaikh @JonCommonSense So everyone would get along if everyone just hated whites and Jews? I think you fail to understand the human condition, history, or even yourself.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@Bushra1Shaikh I don't think she meant "the police should be allowed to let white kids die because they have been accused of racism."

[bundyw @dfziklag]

When they say they are "just as you might ask a friend," they show they don't understand Catholic dogma.

They are asking because she supposedly has a "treasury of grace" from which she can "bless you." This "treasury" comes from the pain of watching her Son die on the cross.

It's false doctrine all the way down.

@MarkleResists @mattvanswol Permit me to translate... "I don't care about people, just give me the money."

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@CallingOutShite @scalyonee1977 Based on your timeline, you're a racist, so ... I'm struggling to understand why anyone should trust you.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@annielcrawford Or fall to the temptation to use the ring "for good." Replace the ring with government and tech ... and that's the decision far too many are already making.

What is happening in the UK should provide ample evidence to Americans that we must never ever ever ever give up our right to bear arms.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@Jondaphemp @DPGBehler Yes. Another way to say this is valuing dignity over profit ... Judaism and Christianity teach us that himans are not "economic units."

Our culture celebrates Potter, sadly, but expects George Bailey.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@Blacksword011 Lies.

[bundyw @dfziklag]

@DPGBehler BTW, another point ... we've learned far too much about how to make addictive things across the board. The amount of self-control it takes to refuse addiction in today's world is (intentionally) much higher than it was in my parent's generation.

We need to return to a world where food companies put quality first instead of profit.

But ... this isn't just food companies. This is about banks, and "social media," and churches, and governments, and every other organization in the modern world set up to maximize revenue while minimizing costs.

Money != dignity.

Flip side of the coin.

We also need to return to a world where people care about their health and take responsibility for their decisions.

One instance--"x or y health thing really isn't important, I do this all the time and it doesn't effect me." That's something I used to say when I was 20'ish. I'm over 60 now, I've been through one heart failure (afib, not blockage), and I've learned that things people consider stupid like sugar intake, seed oils, and artificial sweeteners actually matter to the way I feel and function.

@SacrdCowTipping @danwhitejr I love that phrase "philosopher warriors" ... that's precisely it.
