Eh, yes and no. For one thing, it's possible that Job and the NT don't refer to the same figure: it's not clear that Job is using the word "satan" as a proper name. It might be a more generic sort of term. For another, and this is a view especially popular with people (like me) in Reformed circles, it's not at all…

What happens to the brothers Karamazov? Does Ivan go insane, or die? Does Dmitri escape or go to the mines? Does Alyosha return to the monastery? Who really killed Fyodor Pavlovich? Was Ivan's devil genuine? How come Dostoevsky is so badass?

She was speaking some German, at least- I caught "heisses Bad," if nothing else. The rest, however, did sound like a weird amalgamation of eastern European and Nordic languages.

Yeah, Thomas Nast was the worst offender with regards to the Irish. And, yep, he was German. But there are examples of both groups being presented as subhuman, sometimes even in the same cartoon. For example: http://einkleinertrusch.tum…

I myself am Irish-German, but, alas, my beard is thin and patchy, not ape-like in the least. Although I think my eyes are beady enough for it.

American political cartoons did have a long history of portraying Germans (and Irish) as ape monsters.

While it's true that, for the most part, Parks and Rec wasn't any good its first year, it's worth watching the pilot if for no other reason than Nick Offerman absolutely killing it in the series's introduction to Ron Swanson.

Boo. Go home.

Oh, and Jeep Swenson's LISTED weight was 400+, but pro wrestling likes to exaggerate those things like crazy. I wouldn't be surprised if he was in the 320s-350s.

A lot of what goes into big and tall stuff is limb length. I'm 6'2" but disproportionately long in the legs, so I often need to use big and talls. It doesn't help that I'm also very broad.

The problem is that liberal Protestantism did not accept those "fundamentals."

I'm not disputing that Dispensationalism was a big force (it's one of the chief reasons I disagree with the Fundamentalist position), but it would be incorrect to take it as a completely shared characteristic. Much of the early impetus for the movement came from the Presbyterian churches, and therefore from a…

@trilobiter Not all of the Fundamentalists were Dispensationalist (regarding your reference to Revelation), and, as far as scriptural infallibility goes, it's hard to place most early sources. People still debate about the position held by the Reformers, let alone the Church Fathers.
