re: Do you really believe stories from the Bible?

Adam and Eve and eating the bad apple
Parting of red sea
Noah ark
Water into wine
Cmon man it can’t be real
Without the Adam and Eve story and the fall of mankind the Jesus story doesn’t make much sense. Every civilization has a flood story, so it’s quite possible that the recollection of the event was passed down. Someone’s story of it must be the right one. Your other two are minor miracles in comparison.

Will causing misery across the country will lack of power be a lever for regime change, or will it hurt?
I’m assuming if this happens the thought is people will rise up and overthrow the government. If it did happen I assume the government would have a difficult time coordinating putting down rebellions across the country, especially since the leadership is new and inexperienced.

Some of Paul’s letter I believe date to the 50s. The gospels are only dated after 70 AD because of the Temple’s destruction being so accurate. However, if you believe that Jesus’ prophecies were real, it’s quite possible the gospels were pinned much earlier.

re: About the St. George school district constitutional amendment…

quote:
In MOST cases, MFP decreases per student statewide for every new school district created. A decrease in MFP is a decrease in funding per student. Right now, this is a hyperlocal problem the entire state is voting on
Is this true? Does creating this school district negatively affect funding is school districts throughout the state?

What about them? We know exactly what the author meant, and so did everyone who voted for it, since he’s on record explaining it in detail. Just because some people refuse to accept that meaning doesn’t make it any less valid.

1) you moved the goalpost. I was directly providing you factual information counter to your statement. 2) "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" If birthright citizenship was the point, that phrase would not be necessary. Not be included. It is literally in the amendment and the very reasoning for the Supreme Court hearing that we have right now.
They understood that the clause would not automatically grant citizenship in every case, but modern shifts in language make that harder to recognize. A key problem is how people interpret the word “jurisdiction” today versus how it was understood at the time. Contemporary readers often assume it means simply being subject to U.S. laws, but historical usage shows it carried a more complete sense of political allegiance.
For example, Senator Jacob M. Howard of Michigan, who introduced the Citizenship Clause in the Senate, described it as “simply declaratory of what I regard as the law of the land already.” He explained that it would not apply to people born in the United States who were “foreigners, aliens,” or children of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the U.S. government. Instead, it would apply to “every other class of person,” emphasizing that citizenship required being under the country’s full and complete jurisdiction.

Just curious, does St. George have a tax proposal on the ballot to support its new school district? I ask because Baker (the breakaway everyone forgets about) never passed a new tax or increased its millage rate. Now it has no traditional public schools left; it’s 100% charter-operated. I’d say that qualifies as a model of what not to do, just as Central and Zachary are models of what to do. I believe the latter has significantly higher millage rates than EBR, nearly 50-60% more based on recent figures.

That’s ridiculous, whether you like it or not he is the President of the United States. The office provides privileges and sitting in a hearing in the US Supreme Court is one of those privileges.

Thanks for sharing that. So what was the diagnosis? Magnesium deficiency?
Yep, but my understanding is it’s virtually impossible to determine or detect through a blood test because your body apparently robs everything of magnesium to regulate it in your blood.
