  4. This! One of the several reasons I stopped attending. Our church was modest compared to most. We partnered with the community food pantry and did a lot of good things. Then we started “investing” in our congregation by hiring a “music director”, audio visual equipment etc. I had no problem giving offering when it went to keeping the doors open for the pantry. But if you tell me I need to tithe to help the church stay open standing in front of a big screen to background music played by a hired pianist, excuse me while I roll my eyes…

  6. If you want to discuss Christianity and accumulating wealth, take a look at the mega-Church pastors all over the country. Those guys are supposed to be leading "non-profit organizations" yet they live like multi-millionaires. The Righteous Gemstones is a work of fiction, but based a lot on the truth. At some point the US should look into taxing religious organizations. Don't get me started on Scientology and what they get away with in the name of religion.

  9. What a load of BS. Do not fear the corporate overlords owning everything about your life. You can go from one oligarch to the next to find the right master. Trust us, its a good thing! Im Mike Bloomberg and I approve this message.

  11. We’ll see when the rankings come out, but this guy feels like Bryce McGowens of football. Type of recruit that would put us on the map and open some eyes for peers.

  13. The prodigal son story is viewed in a lot of different perspectives around the world. Our church had a pastor from Tanzania visit and discuss this passage. Finding fault with the son who left is a western thing. The pastor talked more about how the people in the foreign land mistreated and exploited the son when he was down. Even if it was his fault he was in the situation. The son was willing to work for his survival, but the person he worked for wouldn’t even give him food. The sons only option was to return home. He begged for forgiveness just to have the opportunity to be a slave for his father. Again, the son was in this situation because of choices he made, but he owned up to them and was willing to work. He didn’t expect, at all, to be treated with any dignity when he returned home. He then went on to blast the other son who was actually jealous of his brother who was in a desperate position. My comparison would be the Americans who are jealous of the refugees who were put up in hotels not that long ago. A couple posters on this very board talked about how it sounded better than the vacations they take. Finding fault in the man with little while ignoring circumstances is a Western thing. Many other places view it as the love of God is needed because a man isn’t guaranteed to succeed on his own with jealousy and greed of others being a main reason.

  14. Yeah pretty much Option B. Without knowing the nuances of Capitol Hill coverage, I think the ethically responsible thing to do is go and then determine the weight/value/importance of the press conference and the information. Weigh the facts, what's said, etc., and then make a judgement call as to what kind of attention it deserves or needs. The closest example from my personal work experience as a reporter is when we used to go to daily police briefings and/or bi-weekly mayoral press conferences. Sometimes, there was nothing overly interesting to report so we just wouldn't report anything out of it. But (and I'm NOT excusing this, for what it's worth) I'm not surprised that MTG holding a bombastic press conference to fire Fauci garnered so much attention. I think there are multiple ways a newsroom could evaluate this i.e. we should report on this to show how stupid she is, we should report on this because its important news people need to know, we should report on this because our viewers/readers will be interested, we should NOT report on this because it's clearly a publicity stunt, etc. etc. And no matter what choice you make someone will hate you for it lol.

  15. They made the choice to go to college, and they should be free to choose to decide that it was a mistake and then go to a different one. It's not the military. Coaches won't like it, but who cares? Frost gets paid five million dollars a year, and if he gets fired will still get paid millions for failing, he can have the expectation of having to deal with stupid kids. Giving kids the right to move on whenever they see fit is not stupid, it's giving them the autonomy to be in control of their life. Forcing them to stay put is stupid - you never learn good lessons when you're coddled and protected, you only 'earn life's stripes' by taking risks.

  18. I’m with you. I get that renting can be the better option for many. But if a person is lucky enough to be happy in a stable job that most likely won’t require being relocated, I would call that person financially irresponsible for not owning a home if they are able. There is a reason these companies want to own them.

  20. I guess the simple question, that you should answer if you are participating in this thread is, what would you do? Say you are driving and you turn down a street and your car is now surrounded by protesters that for the most part are just protesting but with some starting to bang on your car and trying to open the door. Honestly, what do you think you would do? I really think I would freeze, I would not move at all and would hope for the best.

  25. I will also say this, watching HS film is hard enough, as in, trying to figure out what the hell is going on, dudes pulling wrong, guys lined up wrong, some teams run offenses that hide the ball really well. If it is hard to watch film it has to be really hard to do it live. I had to scout some crap as C1 team years ago that ran a Wing T, from the side view on the stands it was a huge pain in the a$$ to figure out who had the ball.

  28. I am a “left of center wing” Christian who 100% believes that right wing ultra capitalists who call themselves “Christians” are clearly not living in accordance to what Jesus has taught in regards to wealth. To them it’s all about make as much $ as possible and pay as little taxes as possible which they know very well are to help the poor and underserved. And it makes me sad that other Christians live that way.

  29. I gotta be honest, I would be scared, really scared, if I was caught in a situation where my car was surrounded. I really don't feel like I could run people over and floor it, but I would be freaked out, big time, if people tried opening the doors or breaking the windows.

  36. So the B1G has Sandusky (PSU), Larry Nassau (MSU), Richard Strauss (OSU), and now Anderson (UofM). Get out now NU, while you still can. lt does surprise me that football players and wrestlers, etc, let these guys get away with this stuff. In this case, Anderson apparently enjoyed prostate exams and checking for testicular cancer. Sick people in this world. It is even worse that in all these cases people in power knew and let them get away with it.

  37. So will Michigan have to vacate all those wins now? If so, they wont be at the top of the All-time wins list and we wont have to share the 97 Natty anymore?

  38. Incorrect. The top 11 guys at yards per attempt were above 9.5. Those guys' yards per completion were all better than 14. AM's YPA of 7.0 had him sitting at 81st in the country. His yards per completion for the whole season was 9.76! https://www.espn.com/college-football/stats/player/_/table/passing/sort/yardsPerPassAttempt/dir/desc

  39. I can see this kid becoming a better TE than Fant and Fidone. I'm really high on this kid. Once he is matured physically he will be a matchup nightmare.
