The national debt is greater than the gross national income. I doubt it is going to be payed off.

Excellent comment, fren.

I don't know why most Christians ignore the Byzantine (Eastern Roman) Empire, which rose up and went on to control the whole world and survived for a thousand years, until Constantinople was conquered by the Ottoman Turks, while the Western Roman Empire withered, fading into obscurity, and fell within a few centuries.

And with 12% of the vote still uncounted...

The Q source is fanciful thinking. Not one manuscript fragment of the "quelle" has ever been found.

This seems very unlikely to me, but anything is possible in this clown ass world.

Someone I follow who does a great job speaking out about the problems with abiogenesis and origin of life research is Dr. James Tour. Here's his YouTube channel.

I know I'm just nit-picking, but "an expected end" just sounds kinda lame compared to other translations. 🤷‍♂️ The meaning doesn't really change.

Normally I like the King James because I tend to find it to be beautifully poetic, but I think it drops the ball a little on this verse.

לָתֵ֥ת לָכֶ֖ם אַחֲרִ֥ית וְתִקְוָֽה׃ -

לָתֵ֥ת - to give (Prep-l | V-Qal-Inf)
לָכֶ֖ם - you (Prep | 2mp)
אַחֲרִ֥ית - a future (N-fs)
וְתִקְוָֽה׃ - and a hope (Conj-w | N-fs)

There are two nouns, first is acharith (akh-ar-eeth'), and the second is tikvah (tik-vaw'). These two nouns are connected by a conjunctive waw (waw-tikvah). Acharith waw-tikvah - a future and a hope.

Now that is beautifully poetic!

There are still people who can be woken up, but they are not worth it, sorry.

Yep, fake news propaganda BS, but everyone here will eat it up with a spoon without a shred of thought. Over 100 blind upvotes so far.
