@japan_nobunaga Yes, it is normal in every state. America has very few national laws—most laws you're picturing, even murder, are state laws; and so gun rules vary. But the right to own and carry a gun is national. Kids shoot at kids' camps growing (the way we and japanese kids do archery.)
@so_schilly@BlackLabelAdvsr@BasedMikeLee Still, every single dictionary ever written is on our side. (And, as to your point, I think most of them do consider us Christian; there's a loud minority that don't. Many of their churches accept our baptisms too. But again, the loud people drown that out.)
@Leprakon76@bi02247255@Manhattva To some, ever doing anything Jesus says is called "being works based"! You have no idea how many times people reading this have been feeding the hungry and had someone roll up and say "I'm saved by grace, I could kill you right now and still go to Heaven!" True stor(ies).
@BasedMikeLee $50 to the first person to show me a mainstream non-bespoke dictionary that doesn’t consider members of the Church of Jesus Christ Christians. (No such dictionary exists in English. If y’all want to be exclusive, make up your own word, “Christian” is taken.)
@BlackLabelAdvsr@BasedMikeLee Jon, You are not free to add to the Bible. Or, for that matter, every single mainstream non-bespoke dictionary of the English language ever written, 100% of which consider members of the Church of Jesus Christ to be Christian.
@WorkElizab@FathomEnt Click on that fathoment link and you’ll see, for example, now bw but Silence of the Lambs is playing Nationwide next week, Ben Hur two weeks ago, even things like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II (the Vanilla Ice original). I wish I were you hearing about this for the first time!
@WorkElizab That’s not hard. Google @FathomEnt or your local college’s theater or your town’s older theater-turned-community-theater. Honestly these things play all the time in YOUR town—I’ve seen all of the above on 60 foot screens and many more.
@ZelphBones@jmbrim3 Well that is very explicitly 1) out of context, 2) not how new doctrine is announced, and 3) contradicted by actual and more recent quotes in general conference, like Uchtdorf’s “through the help of prayer and unspecified quantities of a diet soda that shall remain nameless.”
@RepRobertGarcia@RepNancyMace Real question: isn’t this a clear case of separation of powers? Of McDonalds managers clutching their pearls that a Burger King employee won’t obey them?

@OurLadysDonor@kylebeshears Every single word. Full stop. If you’re sincere, I can seriously answer line by line. But if you’re sincere, you’d probably rather I do that in a DM.
@Faustzme@kylebeshears That’s still not how doctrine works, no matter how much you hate us. Christianity is not measured in victims no matter how much you wish it were.
@Christian_Kafir@kylebeshears You either know that nothing in that video is true and are lying in Jesus‘s name, or you don’t know that nothing in that video is true and are saying it anyways in Jesus‘s name. Either one is serious.
@malachi_wolcott@kylebeshears What did John Knox think of blacks? No matter how much you troll nobody cares what Brigham Young thought. Because we don’t see the president of the church in 1840 as an infallible Greek Oracle. You’re welcome to go harass Catholics if that’s what you’re looking for.
