@SonicCole91@peterfemmejay He's *losing his powers* in Spider-Man 2.
That's due to his underlying emotional processing issues and depression, but he gives up *when he can no longer do anything* again *because he's losing/has lost his powers.*
And even then he throws himself into a burning building.
@TSA_57@NNook0480757 It's likely the greatest anime of the last ten years because every conversation through the first several episodes is an enthralling expression of human yearning and depth of character.
@AshwoodSamuel It's, frankly, one of the easiest pair of verses to understand when the evident nature of the mockery, based on the Pharisees' dishonest, worldly-"shrewd" comportment and response, is recognized.
@AshwoodSamuel It's literally just sarcasm flowing from the preceding narrative, with the shrewd manager as the Pharisees whom Christ mocks for their worldliness: "let those to whom you've prostituted yourself for temporal, earthly gain, betraying your Master, welcome you into eternal heaven."
@CybrpnkDystopia@subq@MikeWingerii Well, no.
You can believe that Flowers is correct in his soteriology in which no one has believed in the history of the church save for those decried as Pelagian heretics.
But you cannot pretend that he's teaching anything that orthodox Christians affirm historically.
@Ephesus_431AD The Bible means what it says, unless it says that Baptism now saves you.
Then it doesn't mean what it says.
It couldn't be more obvious.
Learn proper hermeneutics, man. You're inches away from crossing the Tiber!
@paulhess1689 That's some truly "sophist-icated" equivocation.
You should - and do - have better sense than that and yet are blinded by ossified tribalism.
@2LCF1677 We don't like your takes because you're engaging in an insufficient amount of internet drama.
Ignoring will continue until you regularly lob salvos in a brother-war.
@jmwc3@_American_Llama@whpub No. It has literally the same meaning.
Mothers bear children.
Childbearing is the function of a mother and nothing else.
The Godbearer is the mother of God; they are synonymous terms in translation and convey precisely the same concept.
Stop being a heretic.
@Seamus_McBurly I've never seen Schitt's Creek, KitH, or SCTV. Every advertisement made them look like trash.
I've watched recordings of Mr Dressup with my niece because it's the kind of programming to which she should be exposed.
"Best Canadian TV show" recognizes contextual distinctions.
After 600,000 votes, we have our winner in Canada's Favourite TV Show!
We started with 192 shows, and over the past few months of polls have voted out shows to find the champion! That champion is.......MR DRESSUP!!!!
@DavisGee8 @poodlebeenz @charlesmurray Homogeneity, despite the balkanization of media and, in turn, their interests - very few stand out with particular aptitudes or interests saves in those directions which are proscribed by parents. Exceptional students are fewer & equal to merely "good" students from a decade ago.
@AndrewBerkshire To beat this guy, you need speed- you don't have it. And your knees can't take the pounding, so hard running is out. And you got arthritis in your neck.... So, what we'll be calling on is good ol' fashion blunt force trauma. Horsepower. Heavy-duty, cast-iron, piledriving punches.
