In Neil deGrasse Tyson's new book, Starry Messenger, he tells the story about having been selected for jury duty.
When the judge asks him what he does for a living he says I'm a scientist and a college professor
When they just ask them what do you teach
He says I teach a class and analyzing evidence and the unreliability of eyewitness testimonies
He was on his way home within an hour

Why do teachers not teach the difference In the meanings of where and we're and your and you're?
Maybe because there two lazy?

Last week (true story here, not making this up) I was online with a customer service agent through a live chat link. (total waste of my time,EVERY answer they gave me was cut/paste right off the companies FAQ page which didn't answer my questions, which is why I contacted customer support to begin with) so, I had to change up some of my wording to force "Roy" to actually answer w/o cut/paste

Screenshot 2022-12-09 9.02.19 AM.png :unsure: Realized/corrected that "the" should say "you", but completely missed WEEK ...
Well, "Roy" sure did make me weak (from laughter/frustration)

you only need 23 people together in one room to come up with a 50% chance that two of them will have the same birthday

The anticipation is mounting.

I think the miscellaneous of the next post is going to be extra miscellaneous.

I've heard Jordan Peterson...kinda like him. I wish he could be a little bit lighter at times. Kinda too serious
Doing some web browsing and find Jordan Peterson at Oxford Union doing presentation. I find his work insidious. i.e. stealthy and harmful. Also found a presentation with Franciscans in Steubenville. My guess Ohio. Only listened to a few minutes as my opinion of Catholicism is that the RCC is very corrupt. I also listened to Peterson and panel of four answering social issue questions posed by audience in Melbourne, Australia. His approach is to push the philosophy he dreams up. INSIDIOUS

Sure the various churches have corruption in their leadership...but the membership is also very aware of it.

Peterson's comments at about 14 minutes really is revealing as to how he derives his philosophy.

Peterson at Oxford Union at this link. If you think philosophy derived from and based on comparing man with chimpanzees is appropriate rather than the Bible statement man created in the image of God than Peterson is your man

Does Christian Chat allow more than one user account with the same IP address on this site where If a person’s account gets banned then they can still be on here with a different account/username?

That would be a moderator question.

Packing my life's possessions into boxes tells me I got too much junk.
But
I don't know what to throw away either.

And I am beginning to have a suspicion about what owns who....
