I wasn't meaning to fault the grapheneos devs, like you said it's fairphones fault for not making it possible ๐

- yeah no headphone jack is a bummer
- a used pixel is cheaper than than
- my pixel 5 seems pretty small, but idk what they are now or what that is so you're probably right
- even bigger bummer than no headphone jack imo
- I don't think those are that important, a piece of tape over the camera is fine imo
- you're probably right there too, I wish fairphone could run grapheneos ๐
Better off with a used pixel and grapheneos
32Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near. 33So also, when you see all these things, you will know that He is near,f right at the door. 34Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened. 35Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.
to me what you describe seems like post-hoc rationalization. If earth has passed away who will be there to see the signs and know he's near? To me it seems to imply that after he returns (within the human generation) h+e will pass away and that's when the second earth (if i'm remembering revelations correctly) will be created, and even then his words (mainly his moral teachings) will still be good
some funny potential interpretations:
- he's never going to return, so his words about when he returns will never pass away because people will always be waiting and reading them while they wait
- he won't return until we've destroyed earth and abandoned it for mars/the moon/space
- he made someone from that generation immortal to give himself extra time to get back
At this point I only read the bible when i'm double checking my memory on verses believers didn't know about and/or when they try to twist verses to not be as damning for the religion as they are
No, I'm talking about Matthew 24:34. Spoiler alert, that generation has been passed away for a while now. You read the bible more lol
And before you try to twist Jesus's words, keep in mind that god is not the author of deception, so if he got caught lying that's a big problem for Christianity.
Everything that happens is like water flowing down a river. I don't get mad at gravity and the water for acting according to the laws of physics, why do that for other things? It's much easier to accept it for what it is and try to move forward to the best of my ability
there's more to the analogy/perspective but I don't feel like putting it into words. Hopefully it's helpful
Lights + a reflective/fluorescent/hi-vis vest go a long way, plus paying close attention in risky spots like where drivers turn
Stop contributing to animal agriculture. If not for the animals (victims), for the environment/the home of all species
Jesus was supposed to return before all the disciples died. All current christians conveniently forget that part
Ah yep, tried to copy a link from search results and this is what happens ๐ thanks for the tip tho!
Yep, my point was shaking my fist at fairphone, not the grapheneos devs
