It's really crazy how Lloyd and Linus are handling the scandal in a similar way. Everyone is like, "just apologize" and he refuses to.
Saw the thread on Linus and those working conditions are horrible. I feel bad for that person knowing all they had to deal with.
I will say that Linus may not be able to apologize publicly for legal reasons. Much of the incidents detailed by that former employee rise to the level of illegal harassment, sexual discrimination, and hostile working environment. Those conditions leave a corporation open to civil liability. An explicit apology from Linus would be viewed by the court as an admission of fault in any pending legal action against LTT.

Did Jesus COME with the clouds of heaven in 1914?

take for example revelation 21: 10. .

“….and he showed me the holy city jerusalem coming down out of heaven from god.

here john sees something happening, action.

If you don't believe in Christ, Jehalapeno, then I guess you feel you've got nothing to worry about.
This would imply that if you do believe in Christ, you have things to worry about.
Why would you believe in something that makes you worry? Doesn't seem like a very nice belief system when you put it that way.

It doesn't matter if Jesus is real or not or if he came in 1914 or not.
...
Just live your life & be kind to your fellow man.
All the rest that JWs, FLDS, 7th Day Adventists, or any other group ask is just a striving after the wind and vanity.

Just in! Opinion of the court:
"Most of the time I'm proud of my work as a judge. I work tirelessly each day to deliver just and legally rulings. This case, although straightforward, took the court an extended amount of time to rule upon. All documents had to be reviewed and all evidence considered. And herein caused the delay, as I found it difficult to get through more than two paragraphs at a time without vomiting uncontrollably. I think it's fair to say that I had more control over my fits of projectile heaving than Mr. Evans had over his penis."
Ouch.
"That's not what the decision says at all! Recant your fabrication or prepare to be a criminal defendant under the Croatian Insult statute. I suggest you get a good lawyer, because I will never let this go until my dying breath." - Lloyd, probably.

Moral responsibility.

no subtlety here, it's going to be obvious where i'm going with this.

please consider the following scenario.. you're seated on a railway platform bench waiting for your train.

a high speed intercity is about to hurtle through without stopping when you see a small child running to the platforms edge!

When I see threads after they get to be more than a couple pages, I don’t have time to read every single response, but here’s my take on the original hypothetical scenario.
If I was in that situation and had full control of my faculties, I would bear moral responsibility for that child’s death.
I can conceive of an average human freezing and failing to act similarly to how we sometimes freeze as a knocked glass of water wobbles before it spills. Sometimes, we freeze at moments we should act.
However, an omnipotent all-powerful being failing to prevent the child from dying would be evil.

Also, can anyone recommend a good video editor (software, not you Tibor)? Particularly one that allows you to use animation?
Depends what kind of animation you're looking to do.
HitFilm Express is a good free video editor.
Also, DaVinci Resolve has a free option as well.
Prior experience with other video editing software will help with the learning curve.
There are lots of tutorials for DaVinci Resolve on YouTube, if you're so inclined.

The only way certain people will trust that the Lloyd/Dijana correspondence is real is if Lloyd or Dijana come out and confirm it in some way.
Just as with Kim's original whistleblowing, there were many, including myself, that did not believe the allegations until Lloyd jumped on livestream and confirmed everything she said on camera.
I learned from that experience to trust Kim S. as a source.

Re: the so-called "Becca" emails, I still err on the side of being publicly skeptical until I have more definitive evidence that those screenshots were real.
I have a "gut" feeling as to the question of their authenticity, but I'm not willing to publicly say one way or another they are authentic, even if I'm anonymous on this forum.
There are plenty of other verifiable facts that have come out about Lloyd in the last 18 months that show who he truly is as a person.
