@RealTraderJill Seven male justices gave us Roe v. Wade.
It's time to admit that men do not belong on the high court.
Am I doing this right?

@libsoftiktok Two of these women have no children.
One has two daughters, who apparently don't have to worry about being endangered by their mother's opinion.

That’s one big chandelier…

The @NASAHubble team captured this sparkling photo of the Chandelier Cluster, a globular star cluster within our Milky Way galaxy. A globular cluster is a dense collection of thousands to millions of stars bound by gravity. https://t.co/hkks3ngsPU

#OTD June 26, 1691:
John Flavel, eminent English Puritan pastor, died at Exeter. Ejected from his pulpit for nonconformity, he continued preaching despite persecution. Loyal parishioners would travel long distances or meet in woods to hear him. He authored many influential books, including the popular The Mystery of Providence. Later revival leaders such as George Whitefield and Robert Murray M’Cheyne drew great encouragement from his writings.

In 1814, British troops burned Washington and torched the Library of Congress. The young nation’s books went up in flames.

Thomas Jefferson answered by offering his own.

For decades he had built one of the finest private libraries in America. More than 6,000 volumes on law, science, history, philosophy and architecture.

He sold the entire collection to Congress to replace what the fire destroyed. It became the seed of the Library of Congress we have today.

When friends worried he had left himself with nothing, Jefferson wrote to John Adams in 1815:

“I cannot live without books.”

The minds behind the Declaration read widely and voraciously. They believed a free republic could not survive an ignorant people.

The men who built this country were readers first.

@WesleyLHuff I recommend Charles Spurgeon’s sermon, Brave Waiting. He touches on the very issues you mentioned.

[George Whitefield @WhitefieldG]

I love those that thunder out the word. The christian world is in a deep sleep. Nothing but a loud voice can awaken them out of it.

I don’t entirely understand why we need so many data centers but the entire anti-data centers argument stinks to high heaven of the same scaremongering tactics that killed American nuclear power expansion in the 70’s and 80’s so I’m therefore pro data centers

@Protestia We heard this heresy preached in a PC(USA) church in north Georgia over twenty years ago. That Jesus was "overcoming his prejudice while learning to become God".

@JoshuaBarzon Yes. Who knows when Judas will help himself to the money bag?

John Flavel, Puritan pastor in Dartmouth England, preaches his last sermon taking as his text 1 Cor 10:12 “Wherefore let him that stands take heed lest he fall” urging those who are careless of their Christian profession to show a deeper concern for their souls.
