Sure, but I was only agreeing with your point about the first sin not coming from man's brokenness. The first sin broke him.

"and arranged to have him asked 3 times" was the rest of the post I was responding to.

With the Biden administration coming to its end, the Europeans are no longer able to just sit on their hands: This quote is from June 2022—sound familiar? President Trump's not having any or that, he just wants a truce, a ceasefire, a peace deal. And he's not a sucker. The deal will be a...

It was provocative, for sure. Millennials are the ones who turned us back toward being anti-abortion as a country, 'got to give the devil his due. I mean they made it fall back into the Overton window again.

So 15 Nisan being the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread and happening also to be a Sabbath is like two days in one.

What would you recommend for left-wing counterbalance?

15 Nisan along with it being the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread is also a Sabbath, because it fell on a Saturday. So it's like two holidays, the standard weekly holiday of the Sabbath, and now also, because it's 15 Nisan (and 15 Nisan can fall on any day of the week unlike the...
