Sigh. If only people would stop repressing their sexualities.
Matt Nightingale@mattnightingale.bsky.social · 2d agoDon’t sleep on @wmstell.bsky.social’s bombshell reporting. The evidence suggests that Elisabeth Elliot (widow of Jim and author of “Passion and Purity,” among many other evangelical bona fides) had at least one intimate relationship with another woman. arcmag.org/a-rickety-cl...
@faineg.bsky.social you were posting some about this too.
The Karlie Chronicles@karliechronicles.bsky.social · 4d agoSo I'm going to be blunt about what I see as the problem. I was a STEM graduate. The prevailing attitude was "Any other major would be easy and I'd get an A" which is BS of course, but they figure if you can graduate with a STEM degree you can figure everything else out so who needs other degrees?

"Online Rent-a-Sage" Bret Devereaux@bretdevereaux.bsky.social · 2w ago"Why are universities regularly cutting back on their most profitable classes in favor of fields that - while useful - cost them money on the net?" is a question you want someone who can do some real forensic accounting asking, not grumpy history professors.
There have been instances where people that have known me for several years have been shocked to find out I am a trans woman. And I don't try to hide it. So when people say they can always tell, I just roll my eyes.
Faine Greenwood@faineg.bsky.social · 4d agoIt really is just amazing to witness how many people 110% cannot tell if someone is a trans man (And these people are most always, incorrectly, convinced they have infallible Trans-Spotting Skills)
This is 100% accurate. And the Sunday School teachers, God bless them, often had the same issue
Jordan Haynie Ware@godwelcomesall.bsky.social · 5d agoA non-zero percentage of the religion problems of our day is that both the religious and the formerly-religious have never developed a mature understanding of the faith and base all their opinions on what they learned in 3rd grade Sunday school
Hi all! Still hoping for some financial help. I have an unpaid internship in the fall as a chaplain but it's . . . unpaid. Any help is appreciated!
The Karlie Chronicles@karliechronicles.bsky.social · 2w agoSo, my average monthly income is around $1600, and my utilities come to $1800. Assuming I don't eat, that still leaves me behind by $200 a month. I hate to keep asking, but I could use a little help, at least until someone, somewhere, will hire me full-time. www.gofundme.com/f/support-ka...

This goes double for "flying spaghetti monster" arguments. I don't care if you're an atheist as long as we're all trying to make the world a better place. Don't attack me because I'm not interested in a debate.
Jenna DeWitt (she/her)@jennadewitt.bsky.social · last wk.*brief note as this breaks containment You are welcome to hold whatever religious beliefs or none. You are not welcome to be an asshole about it. No one here is trying to convert you, but that goes both ways. "Sky daddy" "imaginary friend" style mocking gets blocked because I don't want it here.
OK, so now I have a neighbor suing me because I don't have $6,000 to cut some trees that are overhanging her yard. Will someone PLEASE donate? #mutualaidrequest

I dunno, I think the people that voted for Zohran Mamdani might disagree with that one.
Maya Media@mayamedia.bsky.social · last wk.And that’s why the people are the leaders now. Voting is nice. But if all you do is vote, you’re doing NOTHING to save your kids. NOTHING.
I'm sure this is nothing to worry about, right stock market? 🙄

I work in a print department. Trust me, I can tell when it's AI generated. They all look the same, they all have spelling errors, and five minutes with a real artist would still be better.

I truly believe that hell is something people choose, and not something God imposes. That whole "I'd rather reign in hell" thing. Truthfully, given that this world, for now, shows the depths we can descend to, I'll opt for heaven and the new earth, thankyouverymuch
Kathryn Rose@artsyhonker.bsky.social · 2w agoHarrowing of hell broke the doors. People can still stay there if they want. Like the rich dude who even in the depths of hell just wants Lazarus to run errands for him. The chasm between heaven and hell isn't imposed, it's in his heart.
