Gotta hand it to them. I mean....

Wow, never noticed that...

:))

Haha. Good call.

Now my head hurts

*dood
Sorry, doesn't work.

Totally works!

Hands are facing the other way.

The wrong direction is due to my photoshop shortcomings...however when you rotate an object around a horizontal axis up and down swap, but left and right stay the same

LMAO!!

....because the Arizona Republic(newspaper) is still soft-selling our team to us.....

But I've seen highlight tapes on YouTube. And it's UG-LEE.

They beat my Blazers the other night. :P

...yeaaah about that "win," though: I watched the YouTube highlights summary. We didn't deserve to win that game.

And I'm sure you know that. That being said, what's different about the Suns this year is that they appear to have a PLAN. Finally. We're still at least 2 or 3 years from returning to our customary status in the NBA. And 4 years minimum from Champ Contention.

That's the Blazers...3 years ago. Despite the loss to the lowly Suns they're looking really good this year. I'd be surprised with anything less than making it to the Western Conference finals.

LMFAOOO!!! YESssss!!

...never would have thought about that...

Congrats? I guess they get it.

LOLLL... It boggles my mind, too.

It always blows my mind. People who claim to be Christians being so mean and nasty. I'm a Christian, and I come down hard on people who act like that.

It doesn't help our Cause. It's "bad PR."

Speaking as a former believer, and a current admirer of Jesus as a great teacher, you seem to have an enlightened view of your faith and how it should lead people to act. Now if only the other 'Christians' on imgflip could follow your example...

Ken, what's amazing (and almost had ME leaving the fold)? The fact that Christian "leaders" are tripping over themselves to support and give their blessing to a warped, cruel, disrespectful, dishonest ignoramus with almost unbelievable moral deficiencies. We're supposed to be the moral authority yet they're selling out their congregations and organizations; their principles and standards... for a lewd (I like to grab 'em by the puss), crass, and disrespectful lout. It's...embarrassing. Because it's so far removed from what the Christian Identity is, or at least what it's supposed to be. It's disheartening.

I would even say it's clear-cut evidence of the prediction in Revelation of the Apostacy. It exposed the Great Falling Away of the Church. But this is the scary part, Ken. (As if it wasn't already horrifying enough) The Bible doesn't say people would LEAVE the Church; it says they would fall away from the Faith and the Truth, if you properly translate it from Greek. That means one of the most disgusting situations is now taking place every week in America...evil, crafty, greedy men and women are exploiting people and leading them away from good teaching and solid doctrine.

Want proof? Just look at the overall polling numbers of professed "Christians" in this Election cycle. Overwhelmingly for Trump.

There are two kinds of Christians that I've found in my experiences - there are many more but this is the general split I find - the Old Testament, or conservative Christians, who believe in an angry judgmental God and who feel we must constrain ourselves by overly-moralistic legal restraints, and New Testament Christians, or the relatively liberal kind (there are more than you know), who believe in a loving God who is trying to save his people and who seek to help those in need. The Trumpsters are obviously the Old Testament kind. I believe conservative Christians are more conservative than Christian and cloak themselves in holiness to justify their secular prejudices. I was raised Presbyterian which is about as secular as you can get and still be a religious denomination. The church, though full of stuffy oldies, at least taught me fairly liberal principles. I'm a liberal largely because of the teachings of Jesus I learned (also went to a Presbyterian college). I fell out of belief because of my interest in science and because I realized I could hold Christian teachings and apply them to my life even though I couldn't believe in overly-miraculous claims. I also can't accept end times prophecy because I'm also historical in my approach (history major, religion & sociology minors) and I see improvement through history, even if it seems like the shit could be coming down soon. I know people feel differently, I just see how much worse things were in the past and my scientific and historical self can't believe in an apocalypse.

Fair enough. But I strongly believe that America, like Israel throughout their history, has turned away from God, and God has turned away from America. I believe we are now in His judgment, and have lost His favor and blessing ("I will give you favor among all the nations...I will bless those who bless you..") and are now facing His wrath. We have strayed away from basic common sense morals. We have embraced evil and wicked things. We have lost our sense of right and wrong. We have lost our direction, and are just aimless and wrecklessly living.

But it's NOT "all Obama's fault." I don't buy that, and I think it's childish and simple-minded to say and believe that. I believe he's done the best he possibly can. I believe he's a good man, and lives by a high standard. That's why I voted for him, and volunteered for him. Twice.

I would say that I'm a balanced Christian (a little OT, a lot of NT..and an avid student of Yeshua..which is really "Joshua," in case you didn't know. But that's who we call Jesus.

That being said, you'd be great coffeehouse convo. I stand firm, but respectfully where the Word of God directs me to. And I do believe in prophecy, and that it has been and will continue to be fulfilled.

And I respect your beliefs. It's good to meet a committed Christian who opens their mind to a prattling provocateur like me. I feel getting info from all sources is the best way. And if anything Obama was a solid Christian man in his ideals and modus operandi. I voted for him twice and was good with it, even if sometimes I wanted more of a realist.

I know Yeshua Ha-Nozri. First got that from Mikhael Bulgakov's novel "The Master and Margarita". Excellent book.
