A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."
Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

the thing about us evangelicalism is at it’s core it’s antinomian
From the outside US evangelicalism is a very puzzling religious group because ostensibly they are very concerned with the moral teachings of a publicly accessible text but also they seem to have inferred completely the opposite lessons from that text than what everyone else thinks is the plain read.
so my town has been hosting an emergency food drive for snap recipients. the town, high school clubs, the Y, the churches (Episcopal, Presbyterians, Lutherans, Baptists, Unitarians, and the Catholics) & the synagogue, are involved.
You know who isn't participating? the fucking evangelicals.

I don't want another election, but my god, the Liberals deserve to be fucking crushed over this. No spines, no ethics, no loyalty to their constituents, no sense of gratitude to all the leftists who held their noses and voted for them to stop Poilievre. An entire party of empty suits.

As someone whose city just did the opposite, I'm thrilled for everyone in NYC for electing a compassionate and human mayor.

It is a huge day for both racist democrats and racist republicans. It gets us one step closer to the Debra Messing and Anthony Cumia podcast

Tuned in to this just in time to hear "We Didn't Start The Fire," but all I heard was the Bigfeets theme song and got immediately upset on behalf of @jamiekellyxxx.bsky.social, @brockway.bsky.social, @seanbaby.bsky.social, and @jasonkpargin.bsky.social.

I know a lot of people are boycotting Amazon, which is great, but it's hurting a lot of trans authors.
Trans authors: Drop links to your NON-AMAZON book listings/storefronts.
Cis people: Repost, boost, and, importantly, buy. Part of boycotting an evil corporation is supporting the alternatives.

Just for the avoidance of doubt, this is inexcusably racist and a sin against God.
Mike Johnson: "If you're a young, pregnant American citizen women who shows up in an ER and you get treated and they pay the hospital less for treating you than some illegal rabble rouser who came in from some South American country to do us harm, that is wrong."

Sometimes you make a real supper, very elaborate and fancy and end up with a great feeling of accomplishment, and sometimes you ask your kids what they want to eat and end up making sausages, plain couscous, and popcorn.

The fact they jumped straight to AI actors modeled after women when, if I’m not mistaken, male actors are a higher labor cost kind of says it all doesn’t it,
