Jeff Owens. Now, there's a name I haven't heard since ... well, January 2021. Is there any documentation of this, apart from a year-old anonymous Facebook post?

But presumably not permanently (Gen.9 also implies it took place shortly after emerging from the ark), and there are other things to build than houses.

The most ardent, anti-Trump, "Elbows up!" Canadian journalists who rally against renaming Lake Ontario, are also the ones most likely to refer to Canada as "Turtle Island" to pander to natives. Trump is a childish goof, but he also tends to bring out the childish goof in leftists, too

Specifically, it's your anti-intellectual tendency to dismiss challenging questions with sarcasm.

I wasn't talking about numbers, though. I accept that they may have idiomatic meanings. I was addressing what you said about Noah's Ark being allegorical.

The difficulty with taking a passage allegorically is that an allegory is an extended metaphor, so it needs to stand for something outside of its ordinary, face-value meaning. What is that?

"Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed" (John 20:29).

Congratulations. You've spent more time complaining about being banned, now, than you spent being actually banned. Anyway, it doesn't seem to me that this thread serves any further productive purpose.

Jooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooos!

Most professional archaeologists go their entire careers without a major discovery. Wyatt, a complete amateur, apparently found all the good stuff. If there was a Nobel Prize for archaeology, he'd have won them regularly. Fortunately, there isn't a Nobel Prize for phonies. If Noah's Ark...

Apparently it works insofar as everyone's talking about it. Whether it's effective at achieving his intended goal is another matter. Iran doesn't seem to be blinking, and he's touched off a wave of patriotism in Canada that we haven't had since our previous PM declared us all genocidal...

Pretty much what I'd say to a first-time customer who came into my restaurant and started telling me how to manage my human resources.

I may have to sit back and contemplate exactly how to respond to someone whose third post on the forum is calling for the moderators' heads because he was mildly inconvenienced. It was an honest mistake. Let it go and move on. If you still want the "Stopgap" ID, I can undelete it and merge your...

He could have named it Lake Trump for all I actually care, because his EO has no force of law up here to change the name of anything. He's just trolling our prime minister for pushing back on his trade tariffs, because he's got the personality of a 5-year-old. As a point of trivia, the province...

We have been inundated with bogus accounts signing up to spam the forum for more than a year. There's a filter that catches about 99% of them. Sometimes we have to rely on our own eyes to spot patterns of behaviour that the software doesn't. Apologies if the software or one of the mods or...

Please don't deadname President McCheeto.

OK, whatever. Is there someone smart there we can do trade negotiations with? President Trump is having the terrible twos again. Or, as he has been officially renamed in Canada, Cletus McCheeto.

From everything I've seen or heard about her, she was sincere in her Christianity. She grew up in a very strict Pentecostal family and didn't want to come across the same way. She probably had some latitudinarian or progressive opinions concerning sexuality or other religions. The fact that she...

I agree, but when I heard Little Sparrow for the first time, I was surprised how well it worked as a bluegrass tune. Dolly stuck a little too closely to the original's structure. But it's still one of the rare cross-genre covers that works really well--it's no "Hurt," but it's darn close.
