    HOW DO YOU HANDLE TELEMARKETERS?

    Once I told a lady telemarketer that she had a pretty voice. Then I asked her what she was wearing. Sounded like about a mid 50’s lady. Then I asked if she wanted to take any of it off. 🤣. She got all outraged and She responded “I don’t think you’re very interested in what I’m selling” and I...

    Zelensky showing no respect in Oval Office

    I think what was implied is that Zelenski doesn't want a cease fire. I think he might be pushing Trump to help them take back some of the conquered territory. I'm guessing Trump is pissed because he wants this over with, he got Putin to agree to some semblance of terms that Trump thinks are...

    Religious Question For The Anti Death Penalty Crowd

    You were typing while I was. I think this is the most interesting part of this discussion….whether or not the moral requirements of the individual are different from that of the state. On one had, you have the example of Alma giving by individuals vs wealth redistribution by government...

    Religious Question For The Anti Death Penalty Crowd

    I find this the most interesting argument in the thread so far. The idea that God’s will for government, and the duties of government, differ from those of individual believers. I do think in many ways this is true. For example, I think Christianity places a responsibility on us to give to...

    Religious Question For The Anti Death Penalty Crowd

    For high crimes where the death penalty is used, life imprisonment would accomplish the same protection of society without depriving life.

    Religious Question For The Anti Death Penalty Crowd

    Incarceration protects society from the pedo. Killing him is unnecessary. Killing to save the money of incarcerating him isn’t a just reason to kill. As long as we are alive, God can use us to do his will. It’s not our place to deprive Him of the chance.

    Religious Question For The Anti Death Penalty Crowd

    I used to be pro death penalty, but over time my views on that have changed. Imagine observing a conflict between two of your own children, both of whom you love boundlessly. Under what circumstances would you be OK with one child killing the other? Because this is how God sees it. I think...

    Religious Question For The Anti Death Penalty Crowd

    But Christ rebukes that philosophy with “you have heard it said, an eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth. But I say to you offer no resistance to one who is evil. When someone strikes you on your right cheek, turn the other one to him as well.” I don’t believe he meant with that statement that...

    Bongino named Deuty Director of FBI

    Ex-fucking-actly lol. Dan has been all over that, and now he has the power to lift the veil. I doubt he will be able to hold onto his radio show, but the ensuing fireworks are gonna be worth it.

    Scope dope

    I do the same thing, only I print it on Avery label paper, laminate the top with packaging tape. That way it’s not just the tape edge holding the dope on, but also the Avery adhesive Edit to add, once you tear the first one off to edit it, it usually leaves a film of paper that the next ones...

    Vatican desecrated by Diversity/Strength individual

    The pope can be wrong about things. Bishops are sinners. Priests are sinners. Some are worse than others, many are amazing people. Just like all humanity. However “the church” is the bride of Christ. The souls of all the faithful, in communion with the angels and saints, is “the church”. At...

    Vatican desecrated by Diversity/Strength individual

    I wish those numbers were right. I think the current estimates of parishioners that attend weekly mass is more like 20% or less. It’s gotten bad. As far as money, many local parishes are running in the red every year. Our tri-parish serves a community of about 10-12 thousand people, and of the...

    Vatican desecrated by Diversity/Strength individual

    Yes, each saint has specific things they are associated with being intercessors for. The saints serve as a great comfort to us as we strive for righteousness, not just as intercessors but as examples of faith we can take inspiration from. As far as confession goes, it’s one of the sacraments...

    Vatican desecrated by Diversity/Strength individual

    Christ himself created the church. He chose the 12 apostles and declared Simon the “Rock”. In Old Testament theology, 12 was a number that symbolized government. It sure looks like Jesus intended to create an organized church. After his resurrection he says to the apostles “Whose sins you...

    Vatican desecrated by Diversity/Strength individual

    I’ll play the role of Catholic apologist. On the saints…many people don’t understand catholics asking for the intercessions the saints. Catholics don’t “pray to the saints” thinking that the saints can cause anything to happen directly. They recognize that the saints are in a unique position...

    How the new Trump Presidency is running at the speed of light

    Isn’t much of that article fiction? The tag-line at the end is “Truth shines through story.” I doubt this person has any actual knowledge of what’s going on.

    Wet Mounting Scope Mounts - Where It All Started

    The more I think about this, the more it kinda makes sense. The only things resisting a mounts ability to shift around within a single pic rail slot are the cross bar hitting a rail rib, or the gripping force of the claw. The friction force between the claw and the rail must not be great...

    Wet Mounting Scope Mounts - Where It All Started

    Making sure I understand... You are saying that everybody's mounts can shift around between the teeth of a pic rail, but if you grease the rail then this occurs less. I assume thats because the grease is taking up all the extra space between the crossbolt and the pic rail teeth and essentially...
