    When evangelical snowflakes censor the Bible: The English Standard Version goes PC. How a Bible edition aimed at right-wing evangelicals has quietly scrubbed references to slavery and "the Jews" Long before Donald Trump made attacks against "political correctness" a key theme of his 2016 election campaign, evangelical leaders like Wayne Grudem, author of "Systematic Theology", have railed against it, particularly when they see it invading their turf — with gender-neutral language in Bible translations, for instance. But a new study by Samuel Perry, co-author of "Taking America Back for God" (I've previously interviewed his co-author, sociologist Andrew Whitehead), finds Grudem himself involved in much the same thing. "Whitewashing Evangelical Scripture: The Case of Slavery and Antisemitism in the English Standard Version," looks at how successive translations have changed in the English Standard Version of the Bible, for which Grudem serves on the oversight committee. In revisions from 2001 through 2016, Perry shows, the word "slave" first gains a footnote, then moves to the footnote and then disappears entirely — in some contexts, like Colossians 3:22, though not others — to be replaced by the word "bondservant," which could be described as a politically correct euphemism. A similar strategy is used to handle anti-Semitic language as well, Perry shows. It's one thing for politicians to hypocritically switch positions mid-air, or hold contradictory positions simultaneously, but it's quite another thing for theologians — or at least it's supposed to be. Evangelical Christians in particular are supposed to revere the literal truth of the Bible, not fiddle around with it to make it sound better to contemporary audiences.

  14. A lot of db vs wr drills this year. Wish they had these streamed in part on line. No injuries is big. With Griffiths calling it quits I wonder if we are in the market for an ni dt.

    In American reporting, mercenaries are now referred to as "contractors". These are essentially hired killers who have been soldiers for one country or another but have been let go, usually for sociopathic behaviours and actions and although they are usually side by side with American/British/ French troops, the mercenaries are paid 3-4x more than regular soldiers and are immune from prosecution.

  19. Since the rock and the xfl said the same and they have nothing to show for their time owning the xfl I tend to believe it. The xfl isn't going to waste their credibility to hoodwink their own fans for the benefit of the cfl.

    2021 NHL Playoffs

    Not a good playoffs for Habs fans... 1. Death threats sent to scheif and his family 2. Jet fan beat up in Montreal for wearing Jets jersey 3. Kucherov Sergachev and other Tampa players families received death threats also from Habs fans Leafs Habs Yankees fans indeed are annoying but Habs fans? They are the worst kind of fan.. the piece of **** who takes it to seriously. **** the Montreal Karen's and their piece of **** fans. Montreal gonna suck next season. They go back to the Tampa Toronto division.

  26. Oh I get that but what is the alternative. Allow the owners of one team to blackmail the rest ,kill a 100 year old league and join another that by all likelihood will fail ? The whole story is written to throw a shadow on the CFL. Its BS and I for one am sick and tired of hearing this crap out of Toronto.

  30. He was in nine different NFL training camps, with five different teams. Several teams asked him back more than once. Never said he racked up NFL stats. Did say he bounced around NFL camps a lot. Nine times. Much more than most journeyman or prospect QB's get. More opportunities than Matt Nichols got. Obviously didn't make an NFL roster like every QB in the CFL. But, like I said, had enough talent to be asked to attend camps nine times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McLeod_Bethel-Thompson https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/B/BethMc00.htm

  33. I actually think speedlex and tburg both have good input.... sure the burgman is a bit negative, but pretty solid in his points. "pithy" no pun intended.😎 I was negative when they brought in colllaros. due to injury history. speed, certainly knows far more than I do about the game. the back and forth is good too. flex.... ipad keyboard is not for me. speedlex....

  36. It's one of my pet peeves that some people just try to make anything and everything political... Dave Naylor was wrong about the CFL/XFL merger... what does that have anything to do with his political stance?... how does one even know Dave Naylor's political stance? (I suppose it could be obvious if you follow him on social)...

    Covid-19

    Pfizer Will Seek OK for Booster Shot That Could Fight Delta Variant Joe Raedle/Getty News There’s some good news from Pfizer: Initial tests indicate that a COVID vaccine booster shot could dramatically improve protection against the virus and even the dreaded Delta variant. The drugmaker announced Thursday that it plans to seek federal approval for a third shot that would ideally be administered between six and 12 months after the second vaccine. At the same time, CNBC reports, Pfizer and BioNTech are also developing an updated vaccine that would be tailored to fight the more-contagious Delta variant, which is now the dominant strain in the U.S. and many other countries.

    Introduce Yourself

    I’ve been away since novemeber 2019 so I thought I would reintroduce myself. I have lived in Winnipeg for all my life outside of 9 months in Edmonton before age 4 I have loved cfl football since as far back as I can remember and have been more passionate about them since the jets left. I’m not nearly as attached to the jets or watch their games. I haven’t missed listening or watching to a bomber game in years. I have zero interest in the nfl and find the games slow and boring. Even the super bowl which I will watch while doing something else. I work in It infrastructure and now cyber security for a very large international company in Winnipeg and I’m opinionated, confident (overly?) and can be an *******. I can hate what you are saying and disagree with you but it won’t really effect how I feel about you. I can hate one post and fight with you and laugh and support something else you say. anyhow. I’m back

    2021 (??) CFL Season

    Sports Net (and some TSN employees) are challenging fans who complained about the XFL talks to "put their money where their mouth is". And honestly that straight up pisses me off. I've spent a damn fortune on this team, but my spending habits are the problem? **** right off. Sure they're mostly talking about the major markets that are lacking....but the logic bending that needs to happen, to assume fans who took the time to care/complain about those issues are also the fans that dont spend enough is ******* insulting. Tim from sports net even talked about how successful other domestic leagues are...well (I'm assuming) completely ignoring the way their media/social media accounts treat those leagues. I'm so sick of TSN/SN and the CFL blaming the fans for the ******* mess they're in. Fans have been complaining for years about lack of innovation from the league and the lack of actual support from the media, but noooo it's all on us? **** you! Ok rant over...
