@RepJackKimble Another idiot Republican who thinks the stock market is the economy. It most decidedly is not.

@lancewallnau The Pied Piper could have won the election and they would have let the hostages go. And you know it. Iran was thumbing it's nose at Carter. It had absolutely zero to do with Reagan at all.

@SpeakerJohnson Speaking of Catholics, I wonder if Mikey read the Pope's admonition on the necessity of universal health care. Oh wait. He doesn't actually want to DO what is right, just spout off meaningless words about religious liberty.

@20th_Centurygal Woodstock 1999. What a fiasco!

@KellilahKelly @transvangelical Nope, not a dog whistle. My only point is it's not helpful to stereotype your opponent in an argument, no matter what side you're on. Don't stoop to their level. Be better than them.

@transvangelical I should also mention that at both churches, one relatively large and one relatively small, women held leadership roles, including preaching

[Special Ed @edhatke]

@SWNID Yes it; did!

@vineyardusa Please make it a top priority to plant a Vineyard in or around Emerald Isle, NC while you are in our fair state 😁

Today is the official release day for my IVP Academic book Flood and Fury! I hope and pray that it proves helpful for those who struggle with violence in the Old Testament. https://t.co/kSkwEasgyd

@MattLynch_OT So sorry to hear this! It's always so, so difficult and heartbreaking.

@SWNID The question I have is this: the civil rights movement used spiritual/religious songs as part of their demonstrations for years. What's the difference here? Honest question I've been pondering since I first read this yesterday

@DanielBTrippin @shaungroves I don't care what its origin is. I'm saying that the concept of owning other people or peoples- literally or figuratively- is offensive and reprehensible. Care more about what the words you use mean to other people than about what you mean by them.

[Special Ed @edhatke]

@DanielBTrippin @shaungroves So beating another people group into submission is somehow more Christian? I'll reread the gospels for the hundredth time looking for that in Jesus' teachings

@drewdyck @SWNID 2 out of 3 here 😎

@drdominee Why does anyone pay even two seconds worth of attention to @ostrachan? I don't get it.
