Today we celebrate the birth of the savior, Jesus christ.

When the Angels sinned, God judged them and that judgment is sure.
14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
14:16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; Isaiah

I believe that in order to prove that God is a just and loving god, he created mankind for us to be an example; the Angels saw God face to face and then spat in his face while men are able to respond to the influence of the holy spirit in their life and Believe on the savior.

6:3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? 1 Corinthians

When God made Adam he created him with a Living spirit that came from God himself. God warned Adam and Eve that if they ate of the fruit of the tree of knowledge, that they would surely die.
2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat.
2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Genesis

When Adam and Eve ate of that fruit and disobeyed god, their spirit died. Gone promised them a redeemer who would crush the head of the serpent but his heel would be bruised, meaning he would suffer.
When God rejected the Fig leaves that Adam and Eve made with their own hands, God sacrificed an animal that he had just created in order to cover the nakedness of Adam and eve, meaning that he covered the sin of Adam and Eve and therefore with a promise of the Redeemer this was a promise for the world, that the Redeemer to come would have to die for sin and his death would cover the sin of the world.
3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them. Genesis

Because the woman is now a sinner, she could not produce the Redeemer but the animal that God provided was an animal God had just created. That was the example: that God had to provide the sacrifice. God promised that a virgin would be with child and bring forth a son.
7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. Isaiah

That promise was fulfilled in the Book of Luke when the angel told Mary that she would have a child from the holy spirit. Jesus was that child, born of a virgin and dying on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins.
1:34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. Luke

Christ's death on the cross paid that ultimate price just like that animal that God sacrificed in the Garden of Eden to cover the sins of the world.
1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. John
This is why Christians give gifts at Christmas time, because God gave us the gift of his son. Those who put their faith and trust in him are given an opportunity to be forgiven of their sins if they but trusting god.
3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. John

The greatest gift that God gave to mankind was the ability to be forgiven of our sin through his son Jesus christ.
That is the message of christmas. And that's why Jesus came into this world, to die for sin.

1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 1 Timothy

1. I wish that research had been done - it might have lng settled this debate.

It has been done at the Utrecht & Amsterdam clinics on cohorts of gender incongruent kids stretching back to 1990

Broadly it found PBs made patients less depressed but not less dysphoric …
2. … An unsurprising finding as PBs just pause life, they don’t progress the body to the preferred state. Social transition improved overall well being provided the child had parent, school & peer support.

The biggest improvement in well being comes with starting hormone …
3. … and changes to body presentation ie. The desired changes to the body

Young people at the clinic who progressed to hormone therapy at 17/
18 only later realised the benefits of PBs.

In TW benefits from PBs later realised, included:
- not requiring extensive & …

As more people claim Christmas as a kind of ecumenical holiday—most not believing that Jesus is God—the actual significance of the Advent and Incarnation are (of course) lost.

It is now a teachable moment for most. Christmas means... 👇
God, the one and only creator of the universe who first revealed himself to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, determined that to save and perfect humanity, he had to appear as a man himself.
A rough explanation of the Trinity, which many non-Christians do not understand—
Think of the Father as timeless; while the Son is also eternal, he acted in time, among us; and after he returned to the Father, they sent their Holy Spirit to us. These three are one in essence.

Rev. George Washington Lee was born on this day in 1903 in Edwards, Miss. He was a minister and civil rights leader who was assassinated in Belzoni, Miss., for his efforts to register Black voters. He is often recognized as the first martyr of the modern civil rights movement. /1Rev. George Washington Lee.
Lee worked manual labor jobs while educating himself, then later became a Baptist minister in Belzoni. He was also a successful businessman: He and his wife, Rosebud, owned a grocery store that primarily served the local Black community, and ran a print shop out of the back room of their home. /2
Lee was the first Black person to register to vote in Humphreys County since Reconstruction. In 1953, he co-founded the Belzoni branch of the NAACP and registered approximately 92 new African American voters. He used his typesetting skills and print shop to produce materials for these efforts. /3

Yo, @ItalianGirl1987! Don’t get fucking scared NOW and start de-tagging yourself from my posts I specifically tag you in. Just because you finally realized you’d bitten off way the fuck more than you can chew all of a sudden. We were having so much FUN.

What the fuck happened? Image
They won’t visit you in prison, bitch. But I will.

To laugh in your treasonous jew face.
Also note: Her reply doesn’t address what I said.

‘I have friends and it’s Christmas, so I’m way too busy to respond. But not too busy to de-tag myself from your posts addressing me bc I’m actually fucking terrified of you now.’

>They are not narcissistic, they are selfish and thoughtless.
>They are not a sociopath, they are cruel.
>They do not have borderline personality disorder, they are emotional & dramatic.
>They are not depressed, they are unhappy.
>They are not autistic, they are shy & awkward & detail-oriented.

>In order to use the modern version, you should be able to explain how it differs from the old one
They don't have trauma, they had a bad experience.

They don't need to process, they need to think about it.

They're not triggered, they're upset.

They're not self-regulating, they're calming down.
They are not invalidating you, they are disagreeing or being tactless

They are not toxic, they are manipulative and contemptuous

They're not fawning, they're being nice bc they're scared

So close to war and yet so close to peace.

This can all turn bad or just like that someone can say sorry and admit they were wrong.

Digital enslavement or freedom.

Plagues or cures.

Darkness or keeping the light on.

We are at crossroads in our history.

We all have decisions to make for the good of everyone.
I say to myself I know I am feeding this beast information on how to turn off the sunlight in a bid to turn off the excited metastable state causing free radicals leading to diseases such as cancer, as well as preventing quantum mind control?… but the logic is simple in doing so we teach the next generation how to turn the light back on again. 🕯️🫶🏻
I’m not alone in my thinking. Image

1/3 Heartbreaking: My deepest condolences to the family of Prashant Sreekumar (44), a father of three, who died in the Grey Nuns ER after a reported >8-hour wait.

This is simply unacceptable in a province as wealthy as Alberta.

The Canadian Triage and Acuity Scale (CTAS) sets recommended ER timelines:
CTAS-1: immediate | CTAS-2: ≤15m | CTAS-3: ≤30m | CTAS-4: ≤60m | CTAS-5: ≤120m.

Many Alberta ERs are not meeting these benchmarks due to chronic overcrowding, staffing shortages, and ALC bed block.

This is a system failure and without urgent action, Albertans remain at risk.

Merry Christmas and stay safe.

2/3 What is ALC bed block? ALC = Alternate Level of Care.

These are patients who no longer need acute hospital care but have nowhere to go, no home supports, no LTC placement, no transition bed.

They occupy acute-care beds for days, weeks or months, which means:

• ER patients can’t be admitted
• ER hallways fill
• ER wait times explode

Until Alberta fixes ALC flow, ER crowding will not improve.
3/3 What can we do now?

Alberta needs urgent action to improve ER flow:

• Rapid decanting teams to transition ALC patients into home care, LTC, and transition units
• Surge community capacity during respiratory season
• After-hours access to primary care
• Real-time monitoring of ER pressures and CTAS compliance

These solutions are practical and achievable and they would reduce ER wait times, reduce suffering, and save lives.

🚨🧵Newly released transcripts reveal interesting private conversations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President George Bush on Iran’s nuclear program from 2001–2008. Let's dive in to what they said
At their first meeting in 2001, Putin surprised Bush when he said: “There’s no doubt Iran wants nuclear weapons.”
He said Russian experts were alarmed by Iranian scientists asking sensitive, weapons-related questions, even though Russia maintained cooperation with Tehran.
Bush warned that an Iranian bomb would destabilize the entire region — and threaten Russia as well.
Putin agreed, but stressed Moscow’s “complex history” with Iran and admitted that financial interests and contractors were hard to fully control inside Russia.

@manoo_hcqghm @suissoroumain @PignonavecunP @Phelya_e @grok I think it's a big part of it. You all worship autistic men on hormones and think people who don't are monsters. That's why you're being the biggest sadists imaginable over Kirk (and not the slum full of inbred child rapists you keep vainly cheerleading)
@manoo_hcqghm @suissoroumain @PignonavecunP @Phelya_e @grok "Why are chuds so obsessed with all of the third world shitskins who we worship even after they've filled our prisons and rioted countless? Also this activist most of it us hasn't even heard of until a month ago is one of the most evil people to ever live"
@manoo_hcqghm @suissoroumain @PignonavecunP @Phelya_e @grok You're overdue for more. Let your glorious shitskins do it right outside of your house this time.

Chelsea - Aston Villa: Pre-match notes.

Thread. Image
Aston Villa's mid/low block:

Tactically, one of the most unique aspects about Aston Villa is their out-of-possession (OOP) intentions in the middle third. In a period where many teams press aggressively, Villa are willing to defend passively in a compact 4-4-2 block.Image
Although Chelsea won't get as much space between the lines compared to the Newcastle game, I still think Maresca could use similar movements (Palmer drifting from the left half-space to the right) to create overloads. Image
