And as several theologians and religious studies scholars have noted, what that student did — lazily waving in the direction of the Bible, never even citing Scripture much less delving into it — would’ve gotten an F In their courses.

Bending your institution to meet the prejudices of your dumbest, meanest students is a surefire way to destroy a university.

I think it's funny how much time and effort we spend trying to create warnings for future civilizations about radioactive waste dumps, as if any of us actually heeded the warnings on ancient tombs. Humans do not heed warnings unless deeply tied to religious dogma. And even then!

It should require the approval of Congress since it is an act against a foreign government and can be considered an act of war.

The blockade of Venezuela is a disgusting echo of U.S. imperialism in Latin America. We were lied to about Iraq and WMDs, and an entire generation paid the price.
Here we are again.
We cannot let a wannabe dictator drag us into another forever war.

I saw a Tik Tok about this lovely effort to search out a longtime customer who didn’t show up on schedule, get him to a Hosptial, and THEN find him a new apt next to the restaurant so they could keep bringing him his order during rehab and keep an eye on him generally.
I’m a vegetarian but Shrimp Basket seems like a pretty awesome place.
He ate at this restaurant every day. When he didn’t show, the chef saved his life.
Charlie Hicks, 78, a regular at the Shrimp Basket stopped showing up. The chef went looking for him and ended up saving his life.
