The pencil illustration is anachronistic and comes across as stupid, but they've come up with worse.

In these parts (midwest US), they have been going door to door and doing carts again for quite a while, since September or so. But, from what I hear, a LOT of them are just staying at home and writing the letters to get their time. -

I looked up the account on Facebook and he made some posts as recently as Nov 10, gave his phone number, etc.
I never met Randy, but I had a family member in Brooklyn Bethel in the time period Randy was there and his stories contain a lot of names that I recognize. I feel a bit of kinship with Randy and am glad he is able to post.

Had the Walmart killer studied with Dubs?
by BONEZZ inafter reading his "manifesto" it seemed like he may have been influenced.
things like being "unevenly yoked", etc.
i know other religions may talk about that but dubbies seem to harp on it more.

Nephilim...Only desired females
by RULES & REGULATIONS inbible questions answered.
who were the nephilim?.
the bible account says that “the sons of the true god began to notice that the daughters of men were beautiful.” (genesis 6:2) those ‘sons of god’ were actually spirit creatures who rebelled against god when they “forsook their own proper dwelling place” in heaven, materialized human bodies, and “began taking as wives all whom they chose.”—jude 6; genesis 6:2.. the hybrids born from this unnatural union were no ordinary children.

A myth, legend, or fable became a myth, legend or fable over centuries or even thousands of years of repeated retelling. The details have changed over time and what we have left, that is, what was written down in the last few hundred (or in the case of the Bible, a couple of thousand years) may only record a portion of the original story. In most cases they represent some inherently needed compulsion of humans. Carl Jung called them archetypes.
The presentation of the fallen angels being only male and wanting human women, in my view, is a projection of the fears of the people of the time period.

Noah's Ark - Kentucky
by BoogerMan inregardless of belief/non-belief in the bible account, why is the ark nearly always depicted by both believers & non-believers as a huge boat, with a rounded hull & stern, and a tapered bow?
https://arkencounter.com/ .
the ark was crate shaped according to the measurements.

The Ark exhibit in Kentucky is just a few hours drive away for me and I have always had a morbid curiousity to go see it. It is preposterous of course, a testimony to people's stupidity and confirmation bias.

In these parts (midwest US), there is a fringe group which claims that Indian burial mounds and other earthworks were made by 'Nephilim', by which they mean a race of giant humans 12-15 feet tall. Their beliefs don't seem to directly relate to biblical stories, but they use the word Nephilim in their videos. It's really a curious belief, in that it has no evidence to support it and is basically preposterous.

Who wrote the book of Hebrews?
by Fisherman inthere are good reasons to belief that paul wrote hebrews.
i am convinced he wrote it.
is there any any convincing evidence or argument that can validate the belief?.

I may have missed some discusson of this, but the OP was no doubt prompted by recent news article:
https://nypost.com/2022/11/17/jeopardy-bible-clue-sparks-hellfire-debate-over-new-testament/
in which the question
"Paul’s letter to them is the New Testament epistle with the most Old Testament quotations"
was on the game show Jeopardy. The 'correct' answer was 'Who were the Hebrews', but curiously the framers of the question were unaware of the debated authorship of Hebrews.
