Dead Cubs fans are celebrating in Heaven

His personality and his potential are linked. It’s ok to not reach your potential as a player, but he’s also been a baby about it. He talks shit and never really backs it up.

Great point. Always felt that way about Agassi, too. Dude won the career Grand Slam and people still talk about what he could have been. I mean, in the hypothetical world where people still talk about tennis.

I’m terrified of dying, but not of death. I assume I just sort of lose consciousness if there is no “God force.” I don’t believe in any Christian God or any other specific one.

I don’t understand the human mind well enough, correction, the minds of partiularly brave and contented people, who, when faced with the prospect of almost certain death, can decide to die peacefully and with dignity. I don’t know if I could do it. I hope I could, if it were me. But I think of Dylan Thomas and Raging…

They see power as a zero-sum game. If someone who is poor, non-white, gay, non-Christian, or female gets any power, they see it as a threat to theirs and a danger to The Way Things Should Be. All of the presidents have been male; all of them have been or claimed to be Christian (except for Jefferson, who was a deist);…

Kitteh bees!

Not to mention how f’ing HILARIOUS it is that Trump considers himself to be part of a silent anything.

I like bees, so I am okay with this. I would absolutely vote for someone who ran an anti-wasp campaign, though.

Bees.

Ahhhh, the old “we’re going to take our country back” bullshit spouting from the mouth of an old rich white man. If old rich white men aren’t still running the country, who is? Who has taken the reigns of the country from you? It isn’t women. It isn’t black people. It certainly isn’t Latinos that you’re trying to send…

You know, the confederacy had slaves during the civil war - Bomani Jones

It’s amazing to me how often, despite all the worlds problems, that God stops down to talk to Russell Wilson or you know to make him throw interceptions so his late game come backs are more impressive.

Yes. He has “a plan” for everyone. Even when bad things happen... it's because good things are about to happen. You see, God is a petty spiteful bitch and likes to make some people suffer in order to receive their miracles. Like curing them of the cancer... He gave them, sometimes.

That and the “God told me to show her the way” bullshit he’s spouting is infuriating. I guess that is the nicest way possible to say “This single mother who had a baby out of wedlock needs her some Jesus,” if there’s a nice way of saying something horrifyingly condescending about someone you’re dating.

It’s amazing to see the kind of visceral anger Bomani gets from people nearly every day, because he almost never says anything remotely controversial. He mostly says obvious things in an intelligent and/or entertaining way, and people can’t stand it.

Also nowhere in the Bible does it really state that premarital sex is a sin. The old Testament references to sex out of marriage, deal more with the value of the offense to the father of the daughter. For example:

Nailed it.

This is the stupidest. +1.
