jesus was baptised in a spring called bethany (which was "beyond the jordan" river) in what is now Jordan
Yeah. I got it mixed up. Doesn’t help that they have the same name. Lol
sure doesn't
jordan is an awesome country btw, i enjoyed the people there very much
Never been. Only non us countries I’ve been to are in Europe or Central America
although i went during ramadon , and while i do intermittent fasting on my own, this required fasting for a month is bs
Yeah. I don’t know either
I’ve only glanced through the Koran a couple times.
as i understand it, reading the koran is a waste of time unless you do it in the native language. i.e. anything you derive from it cannot be considered factual if its been translated
From the Muslim perspective right? I think they’re pretty adamant on arabic the Koran.
thats why when people challenge what it says, they just blame translation for you not understanding
I can understand that if there are translation questions or if someone is taking something out of context.
People do it to the Bible all the time.
The bible has like 50 "interpretations" not not many translations
How do you say "groovy" in Latin? 🤔
bruce campbell knows
latin is very useful, when i visited the mutant baby museum in thailand my wife used the latin references to translate the conditions to me
@Clive
Grövuis.
@Clive *How do you say "groovy" in Latin?*
"striatus"
or "canaliculatus"
or "histriatus"
of course those all mean "grooved" but... yeah.
well that's some good news, SAT's have dropped the diversity score idea https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/459041-sat-drops-student-adversity-score
I want to experiment with these.
fairtax - i don't agree with the prebate or the the retail fee. I do like that used items are tax free.
I like to think this might have not happened if people would’ve just declared their “thermal detonators” in at the TSA luggage in area.
@Clive
Ok, ok, I was just joking. 😂
"Grooved" in Latin is sulcatus.
Bitch be cray cray. https://twitter.com/realsaavedra/status/1166570882518720513?s=21
@I Know a Fat Guy her claim about malaria is insanely ignorant. In the 1800s people contracted malaria almost everywhere there are mosquitoes in the US. The government went on a malaria eradication program that used pesticides and such. Nowadays, some scientists have developed a tools with genetic engineering that can actually prevent mosquitos from carrying malaria or just eliminate mosquitoes all together. Of course, environmentalists are the only ones against using it. https://www.cdc.gov/malaria/about/history/elimination_us.html
It’s ridiculous. This kind of crap is why I think environmentalists should be criticized more.
Unless I’m missing the criticism.
shouldn't she be worrying about the medival diseases that are making a come back in california etc?
Yeah. The ones that aren’t associated with climate change ?
Sure.
But that’s not going to advance her agenda
