[Moore Theological College @MooreCollege]

Christians all over the world are indebted to the ministry of Tim Keller, the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City. A gifted preacher, insightful apologist, tireless encourager of others, Keller was called home by his Lord on Friday 19 May 2023.

It is possible to hold deep religious convictions that inform politics without desiring to enforce those convictions on others. This, in fact, is how the vast majority of Christians live — every day. #nswpol

Surreal. 20 years ago as a student in Year 10, 9/11 and the war in Afghanistan started me down a path of enquiring about questions of right and wrong across the globe. Though those questions still interest me, sadly this war lasted longer than my time formally investigating them

@realDuck5 So glad I don't have to go through that ever again.
The worst was realising that I'd missed a whole second application form and had to wait until the following semester for it to be processed...

J.R.R. Tolkien’s often missed reference to Good Friday in ‘The Lord of the Rings”… #GoodFriday

[Stephen McGuinness @stephenmac86]

@WheelerICCS @timdunneAPR2P @DonMarkwell @GeraintITV @Gareth_Vincent @libertyangela @InterpolAber I once wrote a thesis about that (and am extremely thankful for the time that you gave me to chat about how Vincent and Bull's work influenced your own).

[Existential Comics (find me on bluesky) @existentialcoms]

Tolkien wrote Lord of the Rings to create a mythology he felt was absent in Britain, give a setting to his languages, and cope with mortality. Now it's owned by the richest man alive and they are adding sex to spice it up.

Capitalism is a plague that ruins everything it touches.

10 Zoom Commandments

1. Thou shall not sit under a light with a fan lest you incite others to have a seizure.

2. Thou shalt wear clothes if your camera is on, cover your nakedness.

3. Thou shalt mute thyself if you are not speaking, especially if you have the sniffles or gas.

@WillClapton Unpopular opinion: Prequel trilogy above Abrams/Johnson trilogy, simply by virtue of the fact that it was at least original...

[Stephen McGuinness @stephenmac86]

@WillClapton @fafner100 They're on my reading list. I also need to find a way to watch season 3...

[Stephen McGuinness @stephenmac86]
