Biblehub has a Greek text option and full translation of words if you want to dive in. Most of the ideas I picked up from Dr. Ammon Hillman who has a couple of books out from several years ago, you can find quite a few interviews with him online and he livestreams at least weekly. Quite a fertile field of study, the differences in Bible texts between English/Latin and the original Greek.
- Comment on Corn or something idk 1 week ago:
The modern translation is a fairytale but if you get into the original Greek bible texts and supporting and opposing texts from Greco-Roman civilization it paints a very interesting picture of the corruption of the ancient world into the situation we call Western Civilization today. Hopeful eras where humanity improved like the Renaissance and the American Revolutionary War were in large part due to study and reemergence of pre-Christian pagan ideas from Greek antiquity.

Considering how in the original Greek text of the New Testament the Apostles were all described as being between 10 and 19 years of age hanging out with 30-something year old Jesus, and how Jesus’ crucifixion was a result of him being caught in the middle of the night in the Garden of Gesthemane (Mark 14:51-52) with a naked boy, yeah I’d say they have a complicated relationship with gay molestation of the underage.
Certainly not the mainstream view taught in church but classical philologist Dr. Ammon Hillman has the receipts.

True enough. Hey if we try hard enough maybe gen Z can reevaluate it - let’s include Gen Jones and the Xennials and Zillenials
- Comment on Sooo... This is happening on Imgur 1 week ago:
I mean let’s count - boomers, gen x, millenials, gen z is only 4 generations later. Generation gamma or delta can decide if it’s a redeemable symbol and I cant imagine they’ll care all that much what their great (great) grandparents generation thought about it.

1 occasionally the user base freaks the fuck out and starts spamming the same thing, like this. I don’t like Nazis, but that also means I don’t want literally everything on my funny picture site to be about keeping them out. 2 increasingly all the popular stuff isn’t memes at all, but shitting on trump and musk.
Doesnt sound all that different from here especially on #1, case in point beans, jeans and more recently corn for some reason

My neighbor uses Imgur as his main social media. I take that with a grain of salt though since he’s a millenial who only used flip phones til 2022, there are dozens like him, dozens!

I believe 7 generations is the gold standard

This is a big reason I hope/hoped Lemmy/Piefed/Fediverse sees widespread adoption in the future. It’s basically the same userbase and memes in every community, with some small exceptions.

I think this is the answer. I’ve seen similarly conspicuous altruism from Juggalos.
- Comment on Personally, I never travel anywhere without it 4 weeks ago:
Nope, you’re thinking of the Lost Generation, nope Silents were called that because like Gen X, they were fewer in number than the post-war Boomers, and becuase they were generally known for being cautious and thrifty, having grown up in the shadow of WWII but too young to fight in it.
- Comment on Personally, I never travel anywhere without it 4 weeks ago:
I think it’s more about easy portability than discretion.
- Comment on Personally, I never travel anywhere without it 4 weeks ago:
Not sure if you’re implying it but the Silent generation was sandwiched between the Greatest and the Boomers.

Even gay folks had a much harder time in the 90s, it’s hard to even imagine now but its like night and day.

I’ll pee sitting down sometimes in my own home but peeing sitting down with a penis in a public restroom is gross. Regardless of whether your dick aims at the water or the side of the bowl that’s a lot of fine spray of toilet microbiota landing on your junk and undercarriage. Better to just piss everywhere all over the seat and stay pure

Its food for the new poor. The generationally poor were eating chicken wings back in the 80s for $0.19 a pound and loving them. Now, after the dreadful gentrification of wings post-9/11 we’ve got ways to stretch a dollar you’ll never learn unless you marry in.

This is a decade or two past the true ideal. Not pictured: the 5-inch sliding control that mechanically adjusted between recirculated and exterior air and the drivers and passengers pull-knob by the feet that let exterior air flow in directly. A heavenly touring experience.Image
Also on the one pictured in your post, I find those lit press to toggle ac and def buttons with indicator lights wore out over time and required a ton of force to switch on the cars I’ve had with them.
- Comment on I ate: Arby's Steak Nuggets 1 month ago:
Are they actual cut crinkle fries from a potato or are they like, formed potato matter because I could see the first one being pretty good. I will miss the straight cut with the potato skin on it from before though, yum.

Strange Aeons’ take on it was also entertaining.

The arby’s near us closed years ago, am I to understand they have discontinued their straight-cut fries in favor of crinkle cut???

- Comment on Wear your seatbelt 2 months ago:
My laundry is not going to cause any danger with in-town driving, and the basket is too broad to put a belt around. It’s a stupid feature, but hey I’d be willing to get rid of airbags too so I imagine we are on opposite sides of the safety spectrum.
Read just now that seat occupancy sensors are required in new vehicles, disgusting. Never buying a newer car, will be repairing my current one til it turns to dust.
- Comment on Wear your seatbelt 2 months ago:
What if you have something heavy that you’ve put on the passenger seat and the car won’t shut up about it? Another useless safety feature that adds to the price of cars.
