Sadly, very possible.

OMFG, these things (I can’t call them people) are monsters [get rid of rear-seat reminders]!

Thanks for the reminder. This will be burned in my memory for YEARS to come. Bold marketing move!

Guess his “big beautiful ballroom” won’t be Professional Grade after all.

This should help: Snopes article It’s currently rated “Mixed” as it is still in the proposal stage at this time.

Have you tried using 1 2 3 4 5?

That’s the only “cooked cabbage” I’ve heard of; can’t say I care for it, but my partner likes it.

It sounds like we are agreeing.

What I said above:

I say might be because it states “employed as a member of the clergy”. I’m betting they would claim “everyone who knew” was a volunteer (i.e. not “employed”).

What your post above states (I added some bold and italic for emphasis in your quote):

This is the churches defense:

Kimberly Lowe, a lawyer and crisis manager for the church, said its preachers are unpaid and therefore might not be legally required to report sexual abuse of children. Asked if she believes the preachers are mandated reporters under Minnesota law, Lowe would only say that the language of the statute is unclear.

While I agree the Propublica article states they were required reporters and that organization does pretty deep research, I was pointing out the “lawyer way of splitting hairs” in my comments. Lawyers just love to define and redefine the meanings of words; argue about context; question “what was the ‘real intent of the legislation’”; sow doubt; faine ignorance; beg forgiveness; etc ad nauseum. That’s why lawyers are hired to defend in court. Nothing against Propublica but you wouldn’t hire them to defend in court - they are after truth, in court you want a defense which is not necessarily the truth.

Please note: none of this is meant to be “against you/your comments”. Just a slightly different angle on the subject.

Best wishes to all and I hope we can get closer to making this kind of thing just an unhappy part of history.

YMMV.

Make sure it’s a Christian bible. All smart people know Jesus was Christian and not one of those other weird religions (like Judaism). /s

Something he could really use: A book full of web links to articles about “how to start your own religion”.

Perhaps I should have just given him a Post-It note that said “Dude, just use ChatGPT”!

Will it execute . . . probably.

Will it execute what you want it to . . . probably not.

All that icky transmission fluid was limiting the performance of the transmission (I’m sure). /s

According to this site MN mandated reporting they might be:

People who must report

Anyone who is a professional or a professional’s delegate engaged in the practice of the healing arts, social services, hospital administration, psychological or psychiatric treatment, child care, education, law enforcement, or employed as a member of the clergy.

I say might be because it states “employed as a member of the clergy”. I’m betting they would claim “everyone who knew” was a volunteer (i.e. not “employed”).

I’m a member of a Christian organized religion. I don’t think Christianity itself is to blame; PERVERSION OF CHRISTIANITY IS, but not Christinaty itself.

Any true Christian would report this (doesn’t matter if they are legally required to or not). I’m not willing to stand in front of St Peter & God on judgement day and try to defend that kind of inaction.

They should have many years in prison to work to atone for that.

Your landlord is a fool! They should have raised the rent by that same amount and then offered you a $10 a month discount to pay it all at once.

Rookie doesn’t know how to play a numbers/scam game. /s

In truth, sorry you are only being given such a scummy “option”. The simple math shows that the more often you pay (i e. the earlier the recipient gets your money) the more they make in the long run. They should just do that and be decent about the whole thing.

You mean like this: Kristi Noem defends killing her dog - BBC.Com
