    Serious theological question for mature Christians

    I come at questions like this from my seminary background (I'm not ordained, but do have the same MDiv many denominations require for ordination. Also, my wife is an Episcopal priest who not only has an MDiv herself, but a PhD in Christian Worship). I would question the translation you used in...

    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X Sonic the Hedgehog)

    That's just it, though. It's fine if someone just isn't a Joe fan, and thus doesn't care that's what the HISS tank looks like. It just seems odd to criticize a toy that explicitly transforms into a HISS tank for having an awkward vehicle mode.

    BotCon 2022 Nashville, TN August 25-28

    I've had the strong impression that he's still doing PR, but you could be right. He might finally have decided that he's fighting a losing battle trying to defend himself ad infinitum. That said, even the little bit you mention at the end is along the lines of why I said "we might (debate) what...

    BotCon 2022 Nashville, TN August 25-28

    We might go around the bend on what it means to be a part, but without even asking who "the one guy" is (I think we all know), it should be assumed that he is (by most interpretations of the phrase).

    The Book of Boba Fett

    I see no objection to an interpretation that allows Yoda to have built a new lightsaber at some point post-ROTS. The only real impediment would be getting a new crystal.

    The Book of Boba Fett

    We know that much, sure, but there's a LOT of time for other things in that span. Indeed, it's implied they don't really get anywhere until after ROTJ.

    Rumble is red The cartoon is wrong Frenzy's not purple Stop singing this song (Note: While I am a RIRFIBer, this really isn't intended to be an argument. Just having fun. Would it help if I made the text above blue?)

    Star Trek: Prodigy, Season 2 not coming to Paramount+?

    Apparently this thread got abandoned, and no one picked it up again when the show came back. I'm especially surprised no one's bothered enough to comment about the apparent continuity glitch (I have a fix in mind, but don't think it's been made explicitly clear) of the Protostar being lost "17...

    The COVID Vaccination Thread

    Oh, come, now, The Apprentice was still getting good ratings when he was host. (I despise Trump and all he stands for, but if we're going to do name-calling, let's not be making stuff up.)

    Potential CW Sale and the end of the Arrowverse

    The question would simply be "how do politicians get the word out to potential voters if not through paid advertising?" There are potential answers to that question. Whether or not they would be considered viable is a different matter.

    Potential CW Sale and the end of the Arrowverse

    I'm less bothered by the possible sale of the CW than I am of the possibility that we could get stuck with yet ANOTHER political channel (and one on broadcast, no less). The LAST thing this country needs more of....

    The COVID Vaccination Thread

    I really don't agree with the "cloth masks are useless" messaging. They ARE better than nothing. But they're not really what people should be using at this point (especially now that there's no need to save N95s for the medical community). And, yes, cover both mouth AND nose. I can't stand that...

    The COVID Vaccination Thread

    That was true near the pandemic's beginnings due to shortages. There's no meaningful shortage of N-series masks now (not like then, at any rate). No reason to hold back/reserve for healthcare workers at this stage.

    Timey Wimey Business- a thread for Doctor Who

    This runs the risk of opening up the old can of worms, but it makes the point I was making with actual facts, rather than simply oblique references. From the latest DWM: Full disclosure: The article also points out that this season saw an episode with Doctor Who's lowest viewer numbers since...

    Timey Wimey Business- a thread for Doctor Who

    It's not really only now that it's being introduced. Yaz's mom was suspicious of this very thing back during 13's first year. It's just developing over the long haul, which is probably how such things SHOULD be done. But, yeah, I'm pretty much "done" with "companion in love with the Doctor"...

    Timey Wimey Business- a thread for Doctor Who

    I know *I* wouldn't. I *don't* pay for cable, opting instead for no more than 3 or 4 pay-streaming services at any one time.

    Timey Wimey Business- a thread for Doctor Who

    One assumes BBC America hasn't put the money into securing streaming rights that competing folks have done. Thus, all the properly British stuff has gone elsewhere to folks willing to pay for the rights, leaving BBC America with little truly British product....

    Titans Return Appreciation Thread

    I'd really need to see G1 Blurr next to G1 TM Blurr. Besides which, the yellowing on this one is so obvious as to obscure the authentic differences between it and the later versions.
