Fessal Takes Out a Sheep

newtboy says...

Sadly, in many parts of the world thanks to unexploded mines, this is no joke but more of a daily threat.
Either the clip is cut too short and the punchline is missing, or this just falls flat for me. I think I'll skip Four Lions.

Have We Lost the Common Good?

shinyblurry says...

That's an insane interpretation imo. There's no reason for the 'till heaven and earth pass' part at all then except to confuse the meaning, which would be crazy.

The reason for the Heaven and Earth part is to reaffirm what He said in the previous verse, which is that He didn't come to destroy the law but to fulfill the law. He is saying the law cannot be destroyed. The reason He was strongly reaffirming that is because that is exactly what the Pharisees accused Him of doing.

As to pigs flying meaning 'never' you forget, in 2009....swine flu. ;-)

lol

I put them together because they are written together. You conflate fulfilling the law with "everything being fulfilled" for some reason, when it seems clear to me they are very different things. The Law is not "everything", right?

The law is not everything, but the context of that statement is that He is fulfilling the law. The "all" then is all that which is written for Him to fulfill. An example that ties in would be in Luke 4:21

Also, a main piece you are skipping over is where Jesus said He didn't come to destroy the law but fulfill it. That tells you the meaning of what He is talking about. He is definitely saying that the law can be fulfilled, and it can be fulfilled by Him. This is the meaning of the text, that He had come to fulfill it and would (and did) fulfill it.

Right then, Jesus opposed God's law, hardly moral by any religious standard. That Law was still in effect while he lived under any interpretation, something he reiterated in the passage.

He didn't oppose Gods law, He brought something into the situation that had never been there before, which is grace. Since He is the Lord, He can do that. That is exactly what He came to earth to do, which is to bring forgiveness and salvation by faith through grace.

You've ignored my question, or contorted around it. The Law during his life required killing infidels, either he followed it and murdered or not. If not, how is defying God and telling others to follow along not immoral, especially considering the passage where he said that's not OK for ANYONE?

I would venture to guess that the majority of the citizens of Israel had never killed anyone except perhaps if they were in the army. You make it sound like they were a bunch of barbarians running around and bashing peoples heads in. The reality is, everyone knew the law and knew the penalty of certain things was death. It probably would have been relatively rare that people were caught violating laws that led to the death penalty. Jesus followed the law perfectly but it doesn't mean He killed anyone. The only example we have in scripture of that situation is when He showed grace.

".....until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven,"
Edit: it seems you give him a 'do as I say, not as I do, I am bound by no law or rules because I am God so infallible' pass, which doesn't seem like him as he's usually described in the least (teaching by example), and goes against any interpretation of Mathew:18 since he definitely hadn't fulfilled "everything" yet.


It would have been right for Him to stone someone who broke the law but the person would be judged by the priests before that could happen. I just doubt that it ever did happen and nothing is mentioned about it in scripture.

I thought I answered, but I'll try again. As I recall, the stories, fables, and parables attributed to Aesop did a great job of not only listing and describing good morals and ethics, but explaining the why of them without resorting to supernatural whim as an explanation. Imo, a much better, clearer job than Jesus and the bible with it's cryptically described, contradictory, changing morals and ethics usually without any explanation. Granted, the man may be just another myth.

Jesus is not a myth, first of all. Even Richard Dawkins believes He was a real person. I enjoyed Aesops fables; my grandfather gave me a book of them as a child (I wish I could find it now). I haven't looked them over in awhile so I can't say what I do or don't agree with. The question is, how are they objectively good? By that I don't mean, something that appeals to you personally. What I mean is, what makes them transcendent above mere human opinion?

Kurzgesagt - In a Nutshell: Egoistic Altruism

newtboy says...

There are a few problems they skipped.
First, that bigger pie is still finite, but we act as if it's infinite, pretending that one person having billions doesn't adversely effect others, but that's simply not true.
Second, it overlooked the fact that those countries going through industrial revolution often do so by using other non industrial countries resources, making it impossible to industrialize everywhere....we would need at least one more planet to harvest.
Third, it never pointed out that the GDP increases caused by industrial revolutions were met with massive increases in population, which decreases the per capita net worth significantly. Doubling GDP while tripling population makes the average person have less, not more.

I'm disappointed they didn't mention the French revolution, caused largely by the wealth disparity they're discussing.

This video seems to be a long winded version of 'a rising tide lifts all boats'.

Canada Taking it's money Seriously

A Brief History of Metal

ChaosEngine says...

I hear you brother. I have already earmarked an emergency "flights, tickets etc for Slayers last tour" fund. My wife is kinda annoyed that we might have to skip our 10th wedding anniversary, but she'll get over it

noims said:

... until the end of their upcoming tour at least. <sniff>

I'm not crying... I'm crying havoc.

Sheriff Rips NRA - You’re Not Standing Up For Victims

Baltimore Officers Found Guilty In Police Corruption Case

The Toys That Made Us -- Netflix

Sagemind says...

I've watched the Star Wars episode, and the He-Man one.
I skipped Barbie, and haven't seen the GI Joe episode. those are so far the only 4 episodes posted, I'm waiting for others.
Kind of a fun look into the creators of the toys.

On Netflx in Canada, there is also a documentary on Spin Masters, the creators of Air Hogs and Bakugon. Also a good watch.

The Nerd Crew: The Last Jedi FULL REVIEW (SPOILERS!!!)

notarobot jokingly says...

That's the point.

Skip to 12:40 for the (drawn out) "punchline."

Sagemind said:

Wow, these guys are terrible.....they're terrible as segways and editing. and their comedy needs a laugh-track because I didn't know where I was supposed to laugh. And they could benefit from MUCH better writing....

Ready Player One trailer 2

Janus says...

I almost skipped watching this one after having seen the previous trailers/teasers, which had no indication of any real plot. This one actually provides some decent story details which make it look like it might have some potential.

OK, I've gone from "actively disinterested" to "will check reviews when it comes out".

How the US outsourced border security to Mexico

videosiftbug says...

Why don't those refugees settle in Mexico? By skipping Mexico and heading straight for the US, they make it clear to the Mexican locals that they don't care for Mexico and are just passing through.
