@virgilwalker Not true - look at the Greek work Paul used to describe Pricillia in Romans, as well as her actions listed in Acts - the word is the exact same word he uses for male clergy
@Chris_Hohnholz I am an ordained pastor & a woman, & I disagree whole-heartedly w/ your response. It ignores the Gospel history of women as clergy, & challenges that God called me to that very specific role. It implies that women should accept what men are telling them, not God.
I'm ordained by a Denomination who has a long history of advocating & supporting equality. I went to seminary in Texas & was reminded daily that not every pulpit serves the same idea of God. Ban me, God still loves me & called me to share that love with EVERY part of creation.
@geneverwhat My brother-in-law once tried to convince my sister that someone must have opened the ice cream in the grocery store freezer aisle, eaten some, and then put it back in the freezer section. His theory was that they were just unlucky enough to buy that container.
#waytooearly@alivitali I'm up because I work nights caring for organ donors and making life-saving matches with recipients. This program has kept me awake on shifts for years, thank you for being up WAY too early!
@ElenaPa07313120@hell_line0 Thank you for your work! GYN ONC has saved my life over and over. I am a survivor x3 and I know it is because I am cared for by the amazing Dr. Bristow. (He's a guy, but I trust him anyway. ๐)
I had severe headaches for a month, responsive to excederin, I went to my doctor & had a HR of 46. I've never had a heart rate that low. I told her it was concerning me, she told me I was underestimating my sleep apnea. It was a 3cm brain tumor, herniation, death was imminent.
@BethT79 The fact that people quote the Bible and make Cheetoh Pedo a faith symbol is so infuriating. I am an ordained, seminary educated, and a liberal. No regrets or apologies. I know where God's teachings land on immigrants and caring for the poor.
@BethT79 Love the sentiment, but it was Washington who stepped down to create the understanding of temporary power. Jefferson resigned so he could run to be next. But 100% agree that history has its eyes on us, and we are not looking great right now. We're totally gonna miss our shot.
Just want to go on record with a couple things:
1) Our democracy has fallen
2) We didn't have the right to go into Venezuela, or steal their oil
3) We hace no right to buy/take Greenland
4) ICE is the problem, not the protestors
5) We'll be remembered for the cruelty we allowed.
@aliciaandrz I don't know if it is an option for you, but I was in a similar situation and took the path of working with a great dental office in Tijuana, MX. It was SOO much cheaper and they were awesome.
