What do you call a group of Knicks fans? Knickers.

First time making pizza from scratch. Homemade dough and pizza sauce. Despite how it looks it tastes delicious.

I love these along with circus peanuts, candy corn, yellow starbursts, and pineapple on my pizza.

Being childless means having a lot of free time to block everyone I guess.

I was at a stoplight looking at this sign thinking to myself, “am I reading that right?” 😂🤣😂🤣 #ATFisGay

$800 circuit board that was thrown in the trash. The only damage I see is on a $0.75 resistor (black circle on the right side of the left one) Takes a few minutes to replace.

Waiting for the happily ever after.

"You aren't a Christian if you don't accept the Trinity." The history of that statement is quite shocking, and almost nobody who says it knows that acceptance of the doctrine of the Trinity was once enforced by exile, fire, and death. Here is what happened. For the first 300 years after Jesus, Christians did not agree on how He related to God the Father. They argued about it constantly. There was no official rule. That was just normal. Then a priest named Arius said the Son came from the Father and was beneath Him. Not equal. Not eternal. A lot of Christians agreed with him. A lot. This was not some fringe group. For stretches of the next century, his side was winning. Other Christians said the opposite. The Son was fully God, equal to the Father, no beginning. Two camps, same Bible, opposite conclusions. The fighting got bad. Riots. Mobs in the streets. Christians brawling over the nature of God. So the Roman emperor stepped in. Constantine. He had just won a civil war and he wanted his empire to stop fighting. He was not even baptized. He did not care about the theology. He cared about order. In the year 325 he called the bishops to a town called Nicaea. He paid for it. He ran the meeting himself. And they voted. They ruled that the Son was equal to the Father, fully God, one substance with Him. That ruling is the core of the Trinity. It got settled in that room, by that vote, on one word that is not even in the Bible. They wrote the ruling into an official statement of belief. A creed. Every bishop was expected to sign it. That is the part people think is the story. It isn't. The shocking part is how they made everyone accept it. Constantine made the bishops sign the creed. The few who refused, he banished. Then he ordered every book Arius ever wrote to be burned. Then he made a law. If you were caught hiding one of those books, you were put to death. Even after all of that, the Trinity did not win for good. A few years later Constantine changed his mind. He brought Arius back. And he exiled Athanasius, the bishop who had won the argument at Nicaea. That man got banished five separate times in his life for believing the thing the church now says you have to believe. For the next fifty years it flipped back and forth. One emperor said Trinity. The next said no. Whoever sat on the throne decided what was true. The official belief about God changed every time power changed hands. It finally got locked in by another emperor named Theodosius. He made the Trinity the law of the empire. Disagree, and you were a heretic. Not in some spiritual sense. By law. Backed by soldiers. A few years after that, the empire executed a bishop for his beliefs. The first time the state put a Christian to death over doctrine. It would not be the last. Then came the document that says it out loud. A creed written around the year 500. Almost five centuries after Jesus. They named it after Athanasius, that same bishop. He did not even write it. They put his name on it for the authority. It opens by declaring that anyone who does not hold the Trinity, whole and complete, will perish forever. Believe it or be damned. Put in writing, and made the test of who gets saved. So that is where the line comes from. Not from Jesus. Not from the apostles. From emperors and councils who needed a divided empire to fall in line. The Trinity did not become the rule because the argument was settled. It became the rule because the side that held it had the throne, the law, and the sword. The next time someone says you aren't a Christian unless you accept the Trinity, remember what it took to make that rule stick. Exile. Fire. And death.

TAKE MY MONEY!!!!

Israel is not our friend.

Scary accurate. If I had to pick them out of a crowd and all I had was their business card how would they get any work?

I’m a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I am a Christian. I seek not your approval. Gatekeeping God is gay. “We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.” 11th Article of Faith.

Well, well, well... let's address this straight up. What does the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe about God and Christ? How does that compare to what ancient Christians believed? This might surprise you!

Happy Killdozer Day.

Second wish would to fortify it with the same US Passports found from the 9/11 jet planes.

Please help me make sense of this. You abort a baby that has Down syndrome but have no issue keeping a dog alive with no kidneys.

Wait until 11th Ave and Madison St find out about this.
