Mainline Protestantism continues to die. Good. The heresy of the Protestant Revolution must be snuffed out.

Christianity was, in the words of Paul, grafted in. The tree still stands.
Paul wrote those words at a time when the vast majority of Christians still worshipped as Jews.
They prayed and taught in the Synagogues and aligned almost 100% with the Jewish faith and traditions. It wasn't until after the destruction of the Temple in AD 70 that you started to see a gradual separation.

No. I want to see the Holy Land under Christian control. Not Jewish. Not Muslim. Christian and Christian only.

When God makes a promise he keeps it. Remember the promises he made to David.
Yeah, I do. And those promises were fulfilled by the coming of Jesus and the establishment of Christianity and Christendom. Those who continue to follow Judaism follow an extinct covenant that was finished by the Crucifixion. The current state of Israel is Israel in name only. The New Israel is Christianity and the Old Israel was destroyed in AD 70 when the Romans destroyed the Temple.

This.
I have seen so many Christian Zionists on X telling me and others that we need to support Israel because that means we are supporting God and His people. The Bible says Israel will ALWAYS be there and therefore we need to stand behind our Hebrew allies.
Here's the thing...God passed judgment on Israel in the year AD 70 when He allowed the Romans to wipe the Jewish nation from the face of the earth. There was no Israel for almost 1,900 years until it resurfaced again after the Second World War.

re: Titan: The Oceangate (Netflix)
Posted by RollTide1987 on 6/14/25 at 6:44 am
I think that was the incident in which they dove the wreck of the Andrea Doria. Stockton Rush insisted on controlling the Titan and drove them right into a debris field. There was no physical altercation described in the documentary series but there was a verbal fight between Rush and David Lochridge - the chief pilot for OceanGate at the time. After they got stuck under the bow of the vessel, Lochridge took over control of the submersible and guided them back up to the surface. After that incident, Rush's relationship with Lochridge took a nose dive and Lochridge was eventually fired after writing an internal report for the company that warned about the dangers of the submersible operating at great depth.

It absolutely blows my mind how tone deaf and in denial Rush was about that submarine.

Who was power 4/5/6 program with most wins?
In the 2000s?
That would be the Texas Longhorns (110-19).
Oklahoma had the same amount of wins but more losses, so Texas wins that competition based on winning percentage. However, Texas only managed to win the Big 12 twice while Oklahoma won it six times in that same decade.

I hope to God if it's true they hit their targets because if not, there's going to be hell to pay from the Iranians. You don't target the Ayatollah and all of those big wigs and miss.

What about the Americans who secede, come back, and then fight for America? I'm talking about Joseph Wheeler, the man who commanded the cavalry in Cuba during the Spanish-American War. He was a Confederate war hero, later U.S. congressman from Alabama, and then was brought out of military retirement to command U.S. troops in our war against Spain.

Someone needs to develop a good script first and foremost… If someone does it, you may have a valuable property and can attach a bankable star.
Not even a good script will guarantee success. While the movie did eventually get made, it took Steven Spielberg of all directors over a decade to see his Lincoln biopic come to life. Tony Kushner's script was absolutely out of this world.
The problem is Hollywood is taking fewer and fewer risks on period pieces because they cost a lot of money and aren't guaranteed to make money in return. And a so-called "bankable" star isn't a guaranteer of success anymore either. Audiences have evolved and it's making these studio executives scratch their heads trying to figure out their tendencies.
Winningest college football programs by decade (1870s-2020s)
Posted by RollTide1987 on 6/12/25 at 1:03 pm
Got a little bored and decided to do a little college football history research. It's fun to see the ebb and flow of college football programs over the years:
1870s: Princeton Tigers (22 wins, 2 losses, 2 ties)
1880s: Yale Bulldogs (80 wins, 5 losses, 4 ties)
1890s: Yale Bulldogs (116 wins, 7 losses, 5 ties)
1900s: Yale Bulldogs (95 wins, 5 losses, 5 ties)
1910s: Harvard Crimson (68 wins, 8 losses, 8 ties)
1920s: USC Trojans (87 wins, 12 losses, 2 ties)
1930s: Alabama Crimson Tide (79 wins, 11 losses, 5 ties)*
1940s: Notre Dame Fighting Irish (82 wins, 9 losses, 6 ties)
1950s: Oklahoma Sooners (93 wins, 10 losses, 2 ties)
1960s: Alabama Crimson Tide (90 wins, 16 losses, 4 ties)
1970s: Alabama Crimson Tide (103 wins, 16 losses, 1 tie)
1980s: Nebraska Cornhuskers (103 wins, 20 losses)
1990s: Florida State Seminoles (109 wins, 13 losses, 1 tie)
2000s: Boise State Broncos (112 wins, 17 losses)
2010s: Alabama Crimson Tide (124 wins, 15 losses)
2020s: Georgia Bulldogs (61 wins, 7 losses)
*In the 1930s, Alabama and Tennessee tied in the decade with 79 wins a piece. However, Alabama had the better overall winning percentage and so they were chosen to represent the 30s alone as a result.
