A bit more. Merchan spares no punches

Johnson was an assistant coach for the Dolphins 2012-2018 before coming to the Lions in 2019. I'm sure someone would have had an inkling about this guy during that time. Not that they knew he was the offensive genius he seems to be now. It's just a matter of being in the right situation at the right time

Just a note, the roots of the Protestant Church came about because an English King just wanted to divorce one of his wives...

Where's the slander?

Be careful what you wish for.

I grew up in fairly mainline Protestant churches (Presbyterian, Church of the Brethren). The only real difference I saw way back then was baptism. Same basic philosophies to 6-16 year old me. I seem to remember learning that the return of Christ and the rapture were two separate events with several years in between. To me it seemed like the 80s and the growth of evangelicalism and politics in the church. I was in Virginia, so the rise and expansion of the Pat Robinson empire as well as Jerry Falwell's fiefdom seemed to take the church to a major political level and turn it away from what I was taught as a youngster in the 50's and 60s.

Actually, it seems to have been that way since at least 2017..For the former Tea Party and now Trimpublicans

But, I've been told over and over it was a Republican mandate!

Let me take it a step farther. We live in a relatively new subdivision. It's part of a planned development. We were one of the early group of buyers in this particular section. In four years we've only met maybe 15 residents who live around us and only see about a handful of people when we're out and about. I'm old enough to remember when you knew just about everyone who lived in the neighborhood. You may not have agreed with them on everything, but you knew their names, their kids, and would occasionally share a drink on a front porch. Porches have been replaced by backyard patios that are surrounded by fortress like fences. The local "social committee" has a hard time getting folks involved in activities. Unfortunately most of us live on social media where it's extremely easy to air our grievances anonymously. And in doing so seldom allow for civil discussion over sometimes trivial issues. Especially ones where they usually have no real insight on the reasoning behind the decisions, only they don't like it.

Not speaking for Oblong but I think he might be referencing John Nelson Darby. (Plymouth Brothren, Exclusive Brethren) father of dispensationalism and first appeared in the Schofield Reference Bible https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Nelson_Darby

The length of time to choose a new Speaker of the House?

Hopefully he gives her and a few others on the J6 Committee a pardon as well

TA1 is a one trick pony

Does this apply to 2020 as well?

Why is this dude even free on bond? https://www.smithfieldtimes.com/2024/12/30/foursquare-road-suspect-in-largest-ever-fbi-seizure-of-homemade-explosives-released-on-25000-bond/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3E0MYmrRAVFwVFcmMAm2r9w5R6ieFwuX30BIXJjviYZtz6TwCTtSdPPQA_aem_klzSdOm3Iy-2DPIqo_tKSg
