it’s all a big fat lie.
more precisely a big low-fat, high-carbohydrate lie.. 'it took dr. paul marik 12 weeks to prove that conventional wisdom about dieting is a lie, and that was just to himself.
he lost 35 pounds, and cured himself of type 2 diabetes.
I did the meat only diet for about two months and lost about 25 pounds but ended up with some horrible blood pressure problems.
I talked to my doctor later and he said me if I want to lose weight, avoid the breads, sugars and potatoes but you need the fruits and veggies. Also stay away from Bacon. A lot of Youtube people say it is great but it is actually horrible for you.
Also don't take medical advice from youtube.

I worked as a truck driver for about ten years. Mostly under the Obama Presidency. During that time I would listen to the Patriot on Sirius radio. Mostly Michael Savage, Glen Beck, Mark Levine. The biggest troll on the right was really Ann Coultier at the time, who actually seems quite sane now.
I did it parity because I thought of myself as a conservative and parity for entertainment reasons. Hearing people go to absolute pieces for nothing really was funny for me. For the people who assume me of being a progressive lefty, I just laugh because I am really not.
The right wing media is now a race to the bottom. Who can spread the most bullshit and enraged the most people. There is no left wing tricks. It is just lowest common denominator rubbish. When Tucker Carlson get fired from Fox and MTG can get removed from Freedom Caucus , you have a problem.
I wish the faithful slave would give me a list of pornographic website sites that are " Non-Abhorrent ". I would like to call my local elder and tell him I am about to rub one out, Please I need direction. What would even be more funny is if they gave it to me. " You can watch two guys on one girl , just as long as the guys don't make eye contact. That would be homosexuality ".
Seriously, progressive revelation is absolute nonsense.

The Culture war thing is just the Right Wing Media learning from Covid that sensational hate filled nonsense is really the only way to get yourself noticed in an increasing competitive news environment. Views mean money. The more bullshit or angry you spew, the more likely you are to get clicks.
Also the fact with the economy running at full employment and interest and inflation rates are almost to a point where they should be, there isn't much anything of substance to get mad about anymore.

I have this friend who travels the world on inherited wealth and is always posting right wing memes and such. Mainly about the transgender issue. Yeah like that is the biggest threat to the planet. He is also always telling people how they need to pull themselves up my there bootstraps and such cause he is such a self made man.
So last week he is in Auschwitz and posting stuff about horrible humans be to one another and how moving it all was. Then he goes back to shitposting about the dangers of Pride/Woke/Homosexuals/Trans. Just a total disconnect to what happens when people are total dickheads.
God, the internet has made people smart.

I was raised as a witness by my mother but my father was never one of them. He was actually a staunch Ronald Reagan type conservative , even though I am Canadian.
What has happened to the conservative movement is just heartbreaking to him. Cheering for the re-creation of the Soviet Union, The dangers of modern medicine. Nothing but a bunch of populist mushheads amplifying a right wing algorithm. The worst part is they all think they are so bloody original.
I think people are voting with the posts and presence when it comes to this board. Too bad, it use to be a wonderful resource for PIMO community.
ok i'll bite.. let's say for a moment that jehovah's witnesses are right, and that the nt autographs (the originals) contained the tetragrammaton.let's say that the nt writers always wrote "jehovah" in greek (iexoba, as the witnesses spell it currently) when they quoted the hebrew scriptures, whether they quoted from the hebrew version or the septuagint, and jehovah's name appeared on the quote.
let's say that the original septuagint always had iexoba whenever they were referring to jehovah.then we have that the original septuagint said in psalms 101:26-28 the following:"at the beginning it was you, o jehovah, who founded the earth, and the heavens are works of your hands.
they will perish, but you will endure, and they will all become old like a garment.
Man
What a great discussion people. I wish I could write as well as some of you.
The great point I have come to realize is how little anyone in the Borg realizes the complexities of the old testament and the prospective in which the new testament authors are writing or speaking about Jesus Christ. This was the very issue that woke me up.
I am of the opinion that the touchable visible manifestions of god in the old testament were Christ who somehow existed as both god and not god at the same.
Does it make sense ? Not really but that is the story.

In the old testament it says the LORD lead the Israelis out of Egypt, an angel with Name of the Lord and the presence of the LORD lead the Israelis out of Egypt.
The point is it rather ambiguous who LORD is and I believe it is by design.
The idea that the creator stepped into his creation as one of us seems a lot more appealing than god just tortured than Angel to death.

It all goes back into the old testament. There is an invisible omnipotent yahweh and then there is some kind of divine manifestion yahweh who deals directly with humanity. It is all very weird. The two figures become so intertwined you are not sure who is what and what is who.
The new testament is the realization that Jesus is this second yahweh or whatever and the term LORD becomes as ambiguous in the new testament as in the old testament.
I have always thought the whole Jesus though Jehovah idea was kind of weak. It is also very similar to the Trinity which is kind of funny.
elder friend of mine texted me asking what my rc attendance was 2 weeks ago (family and i streamed it since wife is not well).
he told me that his rc in the jersey city assembly hall last weekend was low.
co told them that around 2600 were the total from 16+ congs that were assigned.
I was dropping my wife off ( I didn't actually attend ) and I swear every 50 feet one of those parking attendants would basically step in front of my truck. I had to explain to every fucking one of them, I have a beard and a camo jacket, I am not not attending and it is not that hard how to figure out to drive up to the door and get out of this parking lot. Finally told the last one he was more of a nuisance than actually any help.
