Since the counter-reformation, about.

Salvation is a gift, freely given, but we can separate ourselves from that grace by choosing to do terrible things. How much you want to consider doing good things Work is, I guess, a matter of perspective but most Evangelicals certainly view it as us saying you’re saved by works.

If non-catholic people didn’t go to hell

Man, she’s going to be extra pissed when she finds out that’s not what the Church teaches, to begin with (and also been publicly published, in some capacity, for a century, now).

Gotcha; thanks a ton. I’d only been vaguely aware on the size so that definitely makes more sense. 'Appreciate it.

Ah; I’ve only heard bits and pieces here and there so I wasn’t scared but I had been under the impression it was of a size for sufficient low-key worry (and that’s why it was better that it’d miss Earth) which was why I was confused as to why hitting the moon, then, would be any better.

Thanks for the clarification!

Something that I’ve wondered ever since I heard about it: is that cause for concern, still? Or do we expect it to do little damage to our moon or its orbit?

Both; they’re so great.

Having accidentally seen the movie first and after (what I thought was) an incredibly strong pilot, I was surprised by how filler-y the average episodes were, in that way pretty much all T. V. was before Prestige T. V. came around, but I still thought it was pretty solid.

What made it garbage, for you?

That requires an understanding of institutions as human-constructed entities that, in turn, require human influence and molding because they are not self-regulating systems and cannot be merely competed out of the ecosystem as if you were voting with your dollar as if they were merely brands that you, the consumer, get to leisurely signal you reject or align/identify with.

I Remember Everything (in My Ass)

Thank you, Mario!

But our princess is in another cavity!

We all pretend that it didn’t exist and do not acknowledge its presence; that’s the informal rule.

I still remember that aids, during his first term, disclosed that they had to keep briefings to only a few pages and put pictures to make sure they didn’t lose his attention.

Maybe not entirely closely related but your comment reminded me of this: https://youtube.com/shorts/y0ja9zYBMPE

'Knew about the rumble; 'just did the clicks for the first time (thanks to the tip about opening my jaw).

Not unintentionally correct…because that was my very intentional point.

In spite of car manufacturers claiming seatbelts and air bags were unnecessary, the sheer number of resulting deaths caused us to actually do something about it. I don’t look at the lack of driver’s licenses as anything approaching a rosy past. I will never be sympathetic to the argument that a lack of common sense safety regulations which saves lives somehow grants us more freedom (other than to abdicate all of your freedoms instantaneously via early death, which overwhelmingly impacts the poor and marginalized); sorry.

He may get a short term gain

He was elected to run the government like a business; this is the CEO signature move.

Like all the car crashes that now require us to get a driver’s license…; can’t mow down the government if you’re trained on the rules of the road!

People can’t just use tools that impact the lives of others outside themselves in peace; smdh…
