44 from dust we were made, to dust we return ... applies to the body, but the soul life is different. And some would say holy spirit is the third part of the body/soul/spirit complete man.

"Adam" ... isn't that "earth" or something? (adamah) Adam started as body soul and holy spirit (image of God part). But he disobeyed (in the day you eat of it, you shalt surely die) ... and in that day lost holy spirit (and all after him got his sin nature genetics). He lived on as body soul man long after ... not sure if he would be in resurrection of just or unjust ... probably a good man the rest of his life?

53 The painters face, only his face, looks like it was done by Norman Rockwell. The rest of the painting has that sort of 'blah', understated appearence of Impressionism before it really got going.

I don't know if Corinth is making a social statement about being mortal, an ecological one with the industrial chimneys and smoke in the background, or just shows a sense of humor.

57 nothing more fun than drawing/painting skellies! I always enjoyed it. I'm sure all artists do.

they keep still for you! lol

I wanted to mention a movie I recently watched that was very good - it's a scary movie (sort of). It's called Tigers Are Not Afraid. it's set in modern Mexico along the US border in a town controlled by the cartels.

It will break your heart. Why is THAT particular part of Mexico so corrupt? the US is why. the human smuggling we allow and encourage with dumb immigration policy, the drugs we allow with dumb drug policies, the Chinese influence we reward with dumb trade policy. The money tree beckons and those regions have been destroyed by criminals and politicians (BIRM).

Gender can be determined by looking at the hips/pelvis structure. Or doing a dna test on the bones if usable dna can be recovered. But that means nothing if the bones identify as other.

So about a month ago I log into this VA Mortgage company's site looking for info. Of course, they're set up so that you have to enter a bunch of your personal data before they say that you have to talk to a salesperson to get anything. Grrr. About 2 minutes later, the frickin' salesperson calls me pushing to get prequalified. I brush him off, because I'd only had a couple of minutes to look over anything on their site. I figure they'd take the hint.

Big mistake.

For the past month, they've been calling my cell number leaving messages. MINIMUM of 30 messages over the past month. I finally blocked their number last night.

Then they fucking call my WORK number just a couple of minutes ago. I NEVER gave them my work number. I just blew up at the call center assmunch telling him to stop fucking calling me. And then he has the audacity to ask "so, you AREN'T looking for a home loan?"

When I hung up, the guys here in the shop were laughing their asses off listening to my side of the conversation.

108 91 "Troilus and Criseyde" was Chaucer, not Shakespeare.

Shakespeare's take on it made for one weird play though. In its irreverent take on classical heroes, I feel like he was channeling Marlowe to some degree (shades of Dido.)

I think the reason no one performs it is that no one can figure out HOW to perform it. I think I'd go with Trojans in USC sweaters and Greeks in fraternity jackets, something like that.

imo most institutional religion has been perverted ... I don't know what those you mentioned believe. I was raised Lutheran and now mildly resent that they made us recite the Nicene compromise creed every week. I did some kinda non-denominational stuff, left that when they said "here is our dogma, you must stick to it". I thought everyone would leave ... many did.

So I am on my own ... groups have their place, but the God to man via JC our brother/advocate relationship is sovereign, as stated in our Declaration. And I don't believe the Bible is perfect, or if it is, it has a lot of figurative language (7 day creation story), and much must be understood in light of the context, and the culture of the time ... and in light of the specific point God was making, often taken out of context to mean some other thing.

Basically, I disagree with everybody at some point, but there is a lot of common ground.

289 Just heard something on the radio that the CDC is reporting Georgia has less than 90% of student vaccinated, a dangerously low number.
Of course, the implication is these ignorant southern rednecks don't vaccinate their kids. Unmentioned this was never a problem until the explosion of illegals and anchor babies the past decade or so. I'd bet 90% of the un-vaccinated kids fall in that category.

Just occurred to me what a huge turning point it was when Trump when after Dubya's wars in that debate (another one of those "TRUMP IS FINISHED NOW!!!" moments in the legacy conservative media the next day.)

And his polls went up.

357 Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto have been stalwart allies of the American people. As long as they remain in our enemy Jupiter's orbit, we lose at home, and abroad. Until we annihilate this gas giant, and return these moons to their rightful place around Saturn and her mighty rings, the United States is derelict in her duty, and history will judge our callow, crass President as an unfit disgrace to his office.

Posted by: Warai-otoko at October 18, 2019 10:59 AM (Ct55T)

Mulvaney said "well, yeah, part of the reason we were withholding money was that we were concerned about the Ukrainian corruption in the 2016 election."

The press ran out and said "Mulvaney admits quid pro quo!"

So Mulvaney says "you dunces that isn't what I said, this is what I said, I will say it again."

And the press ran out and said "Mulvaney walks back admission of guilt!"

Posted by: Boots

No. McChrystal worshipped Obama, and still couldn't understand why he got fired. He's a big Lefty officer too.

Face it, the armed services are bery paternal organization, and it's very likely that most of the top officers think the same way, in terms of government paternalism (ie, socialism) about everything. They have to constantly petition Congress for more money for everything, so they are used to groveling and begging and that's how they get trained and promoted.

The notion that the military is "conservative" stems from the idea that they are patriots and want what is best for the country. From their perspective.

When the time comes, they will side with whomever is in charge, and they will do what they are told....for the good of us all. Yeah, sure.

And also on Predict, while OrangeManBad is at 41, GOP2020 is at 45. Which means there is some betting happening where people think a Republican other than Trump wins in 2020.

And that's terrifying when you think about it. After WWII the trials exposed all the members of Germany's military who "were just following orders".
