Perpetual motion is a physical impossibility. Forces like friction will rob a little bit of energy each cycle, and eventually the system runs down. machines like this will have large flywheels, unbalanced weights, and so forth that give them the ability to run for a very long time, but they have...

Sure, there are plenty of solid, conservative intellectuals within the church: Mohler, Denny Burk, Owen Strachan, Carl Trueman, others. I was thinking more of people with a broader scope and appeal than church circles.

The Tartan Army after traipsing through every bar up and down the East Coast:

Sowell is a good mind that I missed. Also (looking at my bookshelf) Mark Steyn, a well-rounded pundit.

Off the top of my head, it seems to me like Michael Knowles has a pretty solid intellectual foundation behind his arguments. He could be William F. Buckley's spiritual successor. Also at the Daily Wire, Ben Shapiro is obviously also very well read (as law-school graduates tend to be) but he's...

The article rightly points out that political conservatism doesn't have much of an intellectual foundation anymore. Minds like Buckley, Roger Scruton, Robert Bork, and of course "classic" greats like Edmund Burke are long gone. It feels to me like we're left with populists and rightists going...

Just his reputation, so far.

I've not seen the movie. (At least it's got DeNiro in it, before he became famous!) I read the novel it's based on when I was in high school and thought was a hoot, but that quote above is the only thing I ever distinctly remember about it. (Based on that, you may judge its literary merits for...

"Raymond the Wolf passed away in his sleep one night from natural causes; his heart stopped beating when the three men who slipped into his bedroom stuck knives in it."--Jimmy Breslin, The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight

By his own logic, since Bruh got lied to by one pastor, he's supposed to mistrust the entire institution of Christianity forever and ever, amen.

According to a recent Chicago Sun-Times investigation, murders of transgender women in the city have a dismal clearance rate of just 14 percent against a national average above 50 percent java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero (and yes, I realize this article was satire [and it's pretty funny])

On 2025, there were 416 murders in Chicago. Zero of them were of trans people. Chicago has the highest volume of murders (of anyone) in the entire United States, and the mayor is wasting his time declaring a "state of emergency" for a nonexistent problem.

What makes you unable?

What's to work or not to work? If you can reconcile a sinning brother and he repents, good. If not, protect the church. It's not really a "process" (which suggests a more theoretical approach to me), so much as a practical set of steps.

I'm not sure, but I assume so. It was also thought that he would be sterile, as well, but Amy Carter was born after the fact.

He did. His urine was radioactive for 6 months.

I assumed it was about some sort of church hurt, but when I said it was a vaguepost, I was thinking you couldn't really tell whether it was talking about a fundamentalist church, a more broadly evangelical one, or a mainline liberal one. But you're right that there's no mention of Jesus--in...

I guess Fuentes can't fight his own battles and his girlfriend has to come to his defence.

I don't know what this person is for or against, but evidently he or she feels quite strongly about it.

OK, sure, whatever. :ROFLMAO:
