If Gay Christians Go To Hell, So Are The Ones Who Don’t Recycle

The fact that God would be so angry at people who live in a way that is destructive to the environment, makes sense in light of Genesis. In what we often refer to as the "original mandate" we see that God's original plan (job/role) for humanity was to be a caretaker of creation (the environment). The opposite of God's plan, would be for humanity to become a force that is destructive towards the environment. Which, is exactly what we've become in so many ways. So, want to draw hard lines on the issue of sexuality and say that, no matter what, all the people who are X, Y, or Z are out, and that there's no room for God to judge the individual heart? Fine. But, you also need to do the same thing with people who don't recycle.

Last week, I wrote a couple of pieces on Gay Christians which has generated a lot of discussion across the web (one of them has been shared 177,000 times, which is crazy).

One of the most common responses to the idea of accepting gay Christians, is that some folks feel this is a no-room-for-discussion, black and white issue that is clearly covered in scripture. For these folks, the case is clear: gay Christians who have not repented are going to hell. The position on this end of the spectrum is that the verses don’t need to undergo an exegetical process beyond the predominant historical position.  These six verses, so the argument goes, simply mean what they appear to mean in the plain English. The case is closed for discussion– gay Christians go to hell.

Fine. But there are two sides to that same coin– because if gay Christians are automatically going to hell, so are Christians who don’t recycle plastic.

Don’t believe me? It’s a black and white issue covered in scripture. To try to convince me otherwise would be a replay of serpent in the garden– “hath God really said??” (an accusation often lobbed at me).

You see, in the book of Revelation (the last book of the Bible) it does describe God’s coming judgement– it even talks about his wrath. Just take a look at how God’s future wrath pouring is described in chapter 11:

“The nations were angry, and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your people who revere your name, both great and small– and for destroying those who destroy the earth.” (Rev 11:18)

It’s right there in black and white. If you accept the inspiration and authority of scripture, one must affirm that there is coming a time where God will be giving out judgements and rewards. At the coming judgement, the Bible says in a straightforward way that God is going to destroy unrepentant gay Christians people who did not properly care for the environment.

That means my friends who don’t recycle plastic are going to end up in the same boat they think all of my gay friends will automatically be in (if God judges them by their own level of judging others). Why? Because unrecycled plastic, among so many other things, is destroying the earth.

Many plastic items are borderline evil: they’re products designed to be used once and then thrown away, but are made out of a material designed to last forever. Crazy, isn’t it? We use a product that is basically indestructible for single use, throw-away situations. It is truly an odd logic.

What’s more tragic is where plastic often ends up: the ocean. The problem of plastic in the ocean has gotten so bad, that we now officially have an area called the Pacific Garbage Patch, which is an approximate 5000 square km area of the ocean that is saturated with plastic. Scientist had warned in the 1980’s that with the trend of plastic ending up in the ocean, such a “garbage patch” would occur in an area where opposing currents trap the plastic.

The key problem, as discussed by the Harvard Gazette, is the fact that plastic breaks down, but doesn’t degrade:

“Plastic can float for centuries. It doesn’t biodegrade into component materials, but can be broken down mechanically into tiny bits of plastic. It can act to magnify chemical pollution in the seas, since it attracts some types of pollutants, which are passed on to creatures that ingest it. One estimate is that there’s more plastic floating in the oceans today than plankton, the tiny drifting plants and animals that form the base of the ocean’s food web.”

What we’re starting to see as a result of this breaking down of plastic without degrading, is not so much what you would imagine a “garbage patch” to look like, but would better be described as turning the ocean into a plastic soup.

Yup, we’re turning parts of the ocean into a plastic, toxic soup.

Not to mention all the other things we do to destroy the earth… carbon emissions, destroying the rain forest, over harvesting animal species, pollution,… the list goes on.

Once again, what do the holy, infallible scriptures have to say about people who destroy the environment?

“The nations were angry, and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your people who revere your name, both great and small– and for destroying those who destroy the earth.” (Rev 11:18)

The fact that God would be so angry at people who live in a way that is destructive to the environment, makes sense in light of Genesis. In what we often refer to as the “original mandate” we see that God’s original plan (job/role) for humanity was to be a caretaker of creation (the environment). The opposite of God’s plan, would be for humanity to become a force that is destructive towards the environment.

Which, is exactly what we’ve become in so many ways.

So, want to draw hard lines on the issue of sexuality and say that, no matter what, all the people who are X, Y, or Z are out, and that there’s no room for God to judge the individual heart?

Fine.

But, you also need to do the same thing with people who don’t recycle.

It’s what we call being consistent.

But here’s what I think (the readers digest version of Repenting of Religion by Greg Boyd): God is the only being in existence who fully knows each individual, human heart. Even when someone sins, it is only God who knows the reasons why they sinned or even still do sin (and what level of culpability they are to own). I think it is perfectly valid to debate and explore the meaning and application of various biblical texts and it is perfectly valid to help people apply biblical truth when you are speaking from the inside of their sacred story. What is wrong, however, is to declare that you factually know a certain individual is without question, going to hell. That is something known but to God.

But like I said– if you’re going to make such declarations based on a person’s sexuality alone, then to be consistent, one must make the same level of judgement based upon an individual’s recycling habits. Personally, I am uncomfortable cosigning someone to hell based on external appearance of either issue.

  1. Salom, yarim yildan beri shu yerda tikaman, shu bois fikrimni bo’lishmoqchiman. Ochig’i, avvaliga unchalik umid qilmagandim — oldin ikkita konторada pul yechishda muammo bo’lgan. 888starz ayni damda meni jiddiy boshog’riq qilmadi.

    Slotlar miqdori haqiqatan ham ko’pchilikni hayratda qoldiradi — aniq sanamadim, ammo taxminan 7000 dan oshadi. Ko’pincha Pragmatic Playning tanish o’yinlarini aylantiraman: Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza. Playn GOdan Book of Dead ham bor, Yggdrasilning eskirmagan ishlari ham uchraydi. Bir narsa jonimga tegdi — katalog filtri ozgina qo’pol ishlaydi, kerakli o’yinni topguncha biroz varaqlaysan.

    Live-kazino menga ko’proq yoqadi. Evolution Gamingning stollari ishlaydi, haqiqiy dilerlar ishtirokida ruletka va blackjack, Crazy Time ham oqshomlari odam ko’p. Aloqam Toshkentda barqaror, shuning uchun lag bo’lmadi, lekin mobil internetda goh-goh video sekinlashadi. Yangi kelganlar uchun birinchi to’ldirishga 100% bonus hamda 200 ta bepul aylanish beriladi, wager 40x atrofida — rostini aytsam osonlikcha yopilmaydi, shuning uchun men ko’pincha bonussiz o’ynayman. Depozitsiz promo vaqti-vaqti bilan bo’ladi, aktual shartlarni 888starz dan qarab qo’ying.

    Registratsiya tez tugadi, eng kam to’ldirish kichkina — men 10 000 so’m chamasida sinab ko’rgandim. Pul kiritish-chiqarishda karta, Skrill, Neteller hamda Bitcoin va boshqa kripto ishlaydi. USDT bilan pul olish menda yarim soat davom etdi, karta bilan esa bir sutkacha kutdim. Hujjat tekshiruvi so’ralgan edi — ID surati jo’natdim, tez ko’rib chiqishdi.

    Smartfonda ishlash yomon emas, Android-ga apk to’g’ridan-to’g’ri yuklab olinadi, brauzer versiyasi ham yomon emas. Qo’llab-quvvatlash chatda rus tilida 10 daqiqada javob berdi, o’zbekcha esa har safar chiqmadi — mana shu joyi ozgina yoqmadi. Litsenziyasi Curacao, ya’ni O’zbekistonda rasmiy tartibga solinmagan — buni yodda tuting. O’zim oyiga budjet belgilab qo’yaman va undan chiqmaslikka harakat qilaman.

  2. Salom, yarim yildan beri shu yerda vaqt o’tkazaman, shu bois bir-ikki og’iz yozay dedim. To’g’risini aytganda, avvaliga unchalik ishonmagandim — bundan avval ikkita saytda yechib olishda nerv buzilgandi. Bu yerda esa shu paytgacha meni ortiqcha ovoraga qo’ymadi.

    Slotlar miqdori rostdan ham ko’pchilikni hayratda qoldiradi — men sanamadim, lekin taxminan 5000 ga yaqin. Ko’proq Pragmatic Playning mashhur o’yinlarini bosaman: Sweet Bonanza bilan Gates of Olympus. Playn GOdan Book of Dead klassikasi ham turibdi, NetEntning eskirmagan ishlari ham uchraydi. Yagona narsa jonimga tegdi — qidiruv filtri anchagina noqulay, kerakli o’yinni topguncha biroz varaqlaysan.

    Live-kazino menga ko’proq yoqadi. Evolution Gamingning jonli stollari ishlaydi, haqiqiy krupyelar ishtirokida ruletka va blackjack, Crazy Time kabi shou-o’yinlar ham oqshomlari odam ko’p. Aloqam Toshkentda barqaror, shuning uchun freeze sezmadim, ammo 4G da ba’zan video sekinlashadi. Yangi ro’yxatdan o’tganlarga birinchi depozitga 100 foizli bonus hamda 100 ta bepul aylanish beriladi, otыgrыsh sharti 40x atrofida — ochig’i bu yengil shart emas, shuning uchun men ko’pincha bonussiz o’ynayman. Depozitsiz aksiyalar ham chiqib turadi, aktual shartlarni 888starz orqali tekshirib ko’ring.

    Ro’yxatdan o’tish bir daqiqada tugadi, minimal depozit arzimagan — men bir necha dollarlik summa bilan boshlagandim. To’lovlarda karta, Skrill, Neteller hamda kripto ishlaydi. Kripto orqali pul olish mening holimda yarim soat davom etdi, karta bilan esa 24 soatgacha kutdim. Verifikatsiya talab qilingan edi — pasport surati yubordim, ertasiga tasdiqlashdi.

    Mobil ilovada o’ynash normal, Android uchun ilova to’g’ridan-to’g’ri yuklab olinadi, brauzer versiyasi ham yomon emas. Qo’llab-quvvatlash onlayn chatda ruschada 10 daqiqada javob berdi, o’zbekcha esa har doim ham emas — mana shu joyi biroz cho’ktiradi. Ruxsatnomasi Kyurasao, ya’ni O’zbekistonda rasmiy tartibga solinmagan — buni yodda tuting. O’zim oyiga qancha o’ynashimni oldindan belgilab olaman va shundan oshirmayman.

  3. Siedze na tym jakies pol roku, to chyba mam prawo sie wypowiedziec. Trafilem tam z polecenia kolegi, bez wiekszych oczekiwan. Od razu widac ze ilosc slotow — jakies 6 tysiecy pozycji, co na papierze brzmi ladnie, w praktyce jednak krecisz w kolko to samo.

    U mnie to Gates of Olympus oraz Gates of Olympus, czyli Pragmatic Play. Jest tez Play’n GO i Betsoft, wiec dostawcy sa ci znani, nie zadne krzaki. Crash gry typu Aviator oczywiscie tez sa, mnie to jakos nie kreci. Na zywo to Evolution robi robote — Lightning Roulette jest po angielsku, stolow po polsku niestety brak, i to troche boli.

    Pakiet powitalny wynosi 100% do okolo 1500 zl i do tego 150 darmowych spinow, dawkowane po kolei. Obrot jest x40, co oznacza ze realnie ciezko to wyciagnac — ja pierwszy raz nie doczytalem i przepadlo. Widzialem tez bonus bez depozytu za sama rejestracje, tylko ze to akcje czasowe — aktualne kody sprawdzisz na 888starz for ios zanim wplacisz.

    Z wyplatami — tu akurat nie narzekam. Przez Skrilla depozyt wchodzi od reki, prog wejscia to jakies 20-25 zl. Wyciagalem na e-portfel i schodzilo do godziny, na karte juz wolniej, ze dwa dni. Sprawdzanie dokumentow jednak byla upierdliwa — pierwszy skan im nie pasowal, pomoc na live chacie reaguje w pare minut, ale gadasz troche z automatem.

    Apka na Androida dziala calkiem znosnie, tylko ze instalujesz apk recznie, bo w sklepie jej nie ma. Pod iOS bywa roznie. Formalnie Curacao, nie polska, zatem 888starz dziala u nas w szarej strefie i o podatkach trzeba pomyslec sam. Dla czesci to dyskwalifikuje — mowie jak jest. Ogolnie siedze dalej, choc bez zachwytu.

  4. Assalomu alaykum, to’rt-besh oydan buyon shu yerda tikaman, shu bois tajribamni yozib qo’yay dedim. Ochig’i, boshida unchalik ishongan emasman — oldin ikkita platformada kechikish bilan azob chekkandim. 888starz hozircha meni jiddiy asabga tegmadi.

    O’yinlar miqdori haqiqatan ham kattagina — aniq sanamadim, ammo taxminan 7000 atrofida bor. Asosan Pragmatic Playning tanish narsalarini bosaman: Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza. Play’n GOdan Book of Dead klassikasi ham turibdi, Yggdrasilning eskirmagan ishlari ham uchraydi. Yagona narsa g’ashimga tegadi — qidiruv filtri anchagina chala, kerakli o’yinni topguncha ancha varaqlaysan.

    Live bo’limi o’zi bir olam. Evolutionning jonli stollari bor, haqiqiy dilerlar ishtirokida ruletka va blackjack, Crazy Time ham kechqurunlari juda gavjum. Aloqam Toshkentda yaxshi, shu sabab lag sezmadim, lekin 4G da ba’zan sifat pasayadi. Yangi ro’yxatdan o’tganlarga birinchi depozitga 100% bonus hamda 100 ta bepul aylanish taklif qilinadi, otыgrыsh sharti 35x ga teng — rostini aytsam bu yengil shart emas, shu bois men bonusni ko’pincha rad etaman. Deposit qilmasdan aksiyalar vaqti-vaqti bilan bo’ladi, joriy takliflarni 888starz da ko’rib olsangiz bo’ladi.

    Ro’yxatdan o’tish bir daqiqada bo’ldi, eng kam to’ldirish kichkina — men bir necha dollarlik summa bilan boshlagandim. To’lovlarda Visa va Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller va kripto ishlaydi. Kripto orqali pul olish mening holimda yarim soat davom etdi, kartaga esa 24 soatgacha kutishga to’g’ri keldi. Verifikatsiya talab qilingan edi — pasport surati jo’natdim, tez ko’rib chiqishdi.

    Telefonda ishlash normal, Android-ga ilova to’g’ridan-to’g’ri yuklab olinadi, sayt versiyasi ham yaxshi ishlaydi. Support onlayn chatda rus tilida tez javob beradi, o’zbekcha esa har safar chiqmadi — mana shu tomoni ozgina yoqmadi. Litsenziyasi Curacao, demak O’zbekistonda rasmiy tartibga solinmagan — shuni hisobga oling. O’zim har oy budjet belgilab qo’yaman va shundan oshirmayman.

  5. Siedze na tym od jakichs czterech miesiecy, w sumie najczesciej jak mam wolne pol godziny, wiec moge cos napisac od siebie. Trafilem tam po jakims watku na forum, bo szukalem miejsca gdzie jest crash i normalne sloty, a nie kolejnej sieczki z dziesiecioma grami.

    Slotow jest naprawde sporo — podobno ponad 4 tys. pozycji, choc realnie i tak wracam do swoich ulubionych. Pragmatic ma tu Gates of Olympus i Sweet Bonanze, sa tez Play’n GO z Book of Dead, kilka NetEnta, Yggdrasil, plus Big Time Gaming jak ktos lubi megaways. Live stoi na Evolution — prawdziwi krupierzy, Crazy Time i ruletki chodzi plynnie nawet na LTE.

    Bonus powitalny nie jest zly: do ok. 1500 zl od pierwszej wplaty + 150 darmowych spinow, bywa tez cos bez depozytu na 50 obrotow. Tylko uwazajcie na wymagany obrot — x40 trzeba przeklikac, za pierwszym razem nie wyrobilem. Aktualne kody zwykle podgladam na 888starz kody bo sie zmieniaja co miesiac.

    Zakladanie konta to jakies minute, minimalna wplata jest niska, kolo 20 zl. Place karta — kasa na e-portfel przyszla w niecale pol godziny, na karte czekalem dwa dni. BTC tez obsluguja, choc nie probowalem.

    To co mnie denerwuje: weryfikacja. Kazali wyslac dowod dopiero przy pierwszej wyplacie i czekalem ze dwa dni. Czat po polsku ale nie zawsze od razu, curacao — wiec podatek i sprawy formalne rozliczacie sami. Aplikacja na iOS dziala szybciej niz przegladarka, choc trzeba ja sciagac z ich strony. Tak w skrocie — dalej tam klikam, z umiarem.

  6. Siedze na tym od pol roku i nie ukrywam, ze zostalem przez to, jak schodza wyplaty. Wczesniej bylem mialem konta w dwoch innych miejscach, gdzie weryfikacja ciagnela sie w nieskonczonosc. Tu pierwszy przelew poszedl w niecale 6 godzin na Skrilla, drugi podobnie.

    Wybor gier duzy — ponad 3000 pozycji, w wiekszosci Pragmatic z Play’n GO plus troche NetEnta. Osobiscie gram w Gates of Olympus, czasem Sweet Bonanza, choc wpadlem ostatnio na tytuly od Big Time Gaming. Kasyno na zywo obsluguje Evolution — jest kilka stolow PL, ale nie zawsze otwarte, Crazy Time chodzi non stop.

    Powitalny pakiet to 100% do 1500 zl i 200 spinow, obrot x35 — normalka jak wszedzie. Free spiny wpadaja partiami po 20, co jest troche upierdliwe. Bez depozytu tez cos bylo, ale grosze. Sprawdzalem warunki z zestawieniem na wyplacalne kasyna internetowe forum zanim cokolwiek wplacilem — sporo mi to ulatwilo.

    Zakladanie konta poszla szybko, minimalny depozyt 40 zl. BLIK jest i dziala, jest Visa, Mastercard, Neteller, dorzucili tez krypto. To akurat rzadkosc jak na to, co dostepne jest w Polsce.

    Minusy? Obsluga potrafi milczec kwadrans, zanim zlapiesz czlowieka, gadasz z botem. Weryfikacja dokumentow zajela dobe — znosnie, tylko zrob to od razu, nie przy wyplacie. Licencja curacao, wiec bez cudow. Apka nie ma, ale mobilna wersja dziala bez zarzutu.

  7. Nie ma co ukrywac, jestem tam zarejestrowany od jakiegos kwartalu i dopiero po czasie moge cos sensownego powiedziec. Znalazlem to przez znajomego z pracy, bo mnie zmeczyly serwisy, ktore robia cyrk przy kazdej wyplacie.

    Katalog jest gruby — ponad 2500 pozycji, choc realnie i tak wracam do tych samych pieciu. Play’n GO dominuje, Gates of Olympus i Book of Dead siedza w top listach, znajdziesz tez Big Time Gaming z tym swoim Megaways. Sekcja live stoi na Evolution, krupierzy po polsku tez sie trafiaja, a Lightning Roulette i Crazy Time chodzi non stop.

    Oferta powitalna to doplata 100% do 2000 zl i darmowe spiny, z obrotem x40 — czyli standard, nic z kosmosu. Jest tez drobny no deposit po potwierdzeniu konta, choc wielkich pieniedzy z tego nie ma. Warunki potrafia sie zmieniac z miesiaca na miesiac, wiec lepiej zweryfikowac to sobie pod https://myminifactory.com/users/mini756765z przed rejestracja.

    Zakladanie konta to doslownie dwie minuty, minimalna wplata to jakies 40 zl co jest OK. Uzywam Przelewy24, bo z BLIK-iem to najszybsza droga, ale sa tez karty, Skrill, Neteller, a dla amatorow krypto Bitcoin. Pierwszy cashout zeszla prawie dobe, bo weryfikacja, potem schodza tego samego dnia.

    Jedna rzecz mnie irytuje — czat po polsku nie zawsze jest dostepny, a bot na starcie potrafi zajechac cierpliwosc. Aplikacja to w sumie strona w opakowaniu, ale mobilna wersja dziala bez zarzutu. Papiery z Curacao — nie jest to Malta, za to nikt mi nie krecil przy wyplacie. Ktos pytal wyzej o inne budy, typu nv casino czy jest bezpieczne — nie mam pojecia, nie gralem.

  8. Siedze tu od mniej wiecej pol roku i nie ukrywam trafilem tu przypadkiem. Wczesniej gralem gdzie indziej i najczesciej chodzilo mi o to, zeby moc obstawiac z telefonu w tramwaju. I akurat tutaj apka nie zawodzi — chodzi plynnie nawet na moim starym Xiaomi.

    Wybor jest absurdalny, cos kolo 2-3 tysiecy pozycji i to nie sa jakies krzaki. Pragmatic Play dominuje — Gates of Olympus leci u mnie codziennie, aczkolwiek od miesiaca bardziej siedze na Big Time Gaming. Stoly na zywo obsluguje Evolution, prawdziwi krupierzy, nie zadne automaty, Crazy Time czasem odpalam dla zabawy. Polskiego stolu jednak nie znalazlem i na to troche narzekam.

    Powitalny jest w okolicach 100% do jakichs 1400 zl i do tego paczke darmowych spinow, wydawane porcjami. Warunek obrotu w okolicach x60 — niski to on nie jest, uczciwie mowiac. Aktualne kody i regulamin bonusu mozna podejrzec na mostbet pl aplikacja jak ktos chce sie wgryzc. Minimalny depozyt to bodajze 8 zl, smiech, konto zalozylem w kilkadziesiat sekund, KYC przeszlo mi nastepnego dnia.

    Wyplacam zazwyczaj na e-portfel i leci w kilka godzin. Na Vise czekalem dwa dni. Krypto tez jest, choc sam nie probowalem. To co mnie wkurzylo to ze przy pierwszym cashoucie musialem doslac rachunek za prad — zrozumiale, ale wolalbym zrobic to od razu przy zapisie.

    Obsluga po polsku dziala, czasem w nocy przelacza sie na angielski. Reakcja w granicach paru minut, bez sciemy. Licencja Curacao, wiec bez polskiego pozwolenia — to trzeba wiedziec zawczasu.

    Na Androidzie instalka leci z ich serwera, w Play Store nie uswiadczysz. Trzeba pozwolic na zrodla zewnetrzne — dla niektorych to bariera, dla mnie zaden problem. Wersja pod iOS tez jest, kolega ma. Notyfikacje troche spamuja, wylaczylem to drugiego dnia.

  9. Klikam tu od zeszlej jesieni i prawde mowiac wszedlem tu z polecenia kumpla. Do tego czasu siedzialem na dwoch innych budkach i przede wszystkim chodzilo mi o to, zeby grac w ciagu dnia z komorki. Pod tym wzgledem apka daje rade — chodzi plynnie nawet na moim czteroletnim telefonie.

    Automatow jest tam z 3000+ i w wiekszosci znane studia. Pragmatic Play siedzi tam mocno — Gates of Olympus leci u mnie codziennie, chociaz od miesiaca czesciej klikam Betsoft. Sekcja live to Evolution, dilerzy normalni, zywi ludzie, Crazy Time potrafi wciagnac na godzine. Polskiego stolu jednak nie znalazlem i to troche szkoda.

    Powitalny wynosi 100% od pierwszej wplaty plus 250 free spinow, nie wszystkie naraz — po 50 dziennie. Warunek obrotu to x60 na spinach — realne, ale trzeba miec cierpliwosc. Szczegoly promocji sa opisane na mostbet app jak ktos chce sie wgryzc. Minimalny depozyt zaczyna sie od 20 zl, zapis to dwie minuty, weryfikacja dokumentow poszla w jedna dobe.

    Wyciagam wygrane zwykle przez Neteller i jest w miare ekspresowo. Na Vise szlo wolniej, ze dwa dni. Krypto tez jest, ale tego nie testowalem. Jedyna rzecz, ktora mnie wnerwila to weryfikacja przy pierwszej wyplacie — zrozumiale, ale wolalbym zrobic to od razu przy zapisie.

    Obsluga po polsku dziala, czasem w nocy przelacza sie na angielski. Reakcja w granicach paru minut, bez kopiuj-wklej regulaminu. Licencja Curacao, czyli poza polska regulacja — kazdy niech sobie sam to przemysli.

    Na Androidzie instalka leci z ich serwera, w Play Store nie uswiadczysz. Trzeba pozwolic na zrodla zewnetrzne — standard, nic dziwnego. Wersja pod iOS tez jest, kolega ma. Push-e potrafia zasypac, na szczescie da sie to uciszyc.

  10. Powiem szczerze, obracam sie tam jakies trzy miesiace i dopiero jak przeszly dwie wyplaty mam wyrobione zdanie. Trafilem tam przez znajomego z pracy, bo juz nie moglem patrzec na budy, ktore trzymaja kase po dwa tygodnie.

    Slotow jest tam sporo — ponad 2500 tytulow, choc jak zwykle i tak wracam do tych samych pieciu. Pragmatic Play jest najbardziej widoczny, Gates of Olympus i Book of Dead stoja na froncie, dorzucili Yggdrasil, Betsoft i Microgaming. Sekcja live stoi na Evolution, sa stoly z polskim krupierem, a Crazy Time chodzi non stop.

    Bonus powitalny to 100% do 2000 zl plus 50 free spinow, warunek obrotu to x35 — uczciwie, choc bez fajerwerkow. Bywa drobny no deposit dla nowych, ale to bardziej gadzet. Promocje rotuja, wiec bez sensu wierzyc starym wpisom — zerknac na aktualna liste pod https://cryptoplaypickse6036.forumgratuit.ro/#f10 zanim wplacisz.

    Sam start zajela mi minute, minimalna wplata to jakies 40 zl bez przesady. Wplacam Przelewy24, bo Polakom to po prostu lezy, ale sa tez Visa/Mastercard oraz e-portfele, a dla amatorow krypto Bitcoin. Pierwsza wyplata szla 26 godzin przez KYC, nastepne byly w kilka godzin.

    Jedna rzecz mnie irytuje — support po polsku nie zawsze jest dostepny, a bot na starcie potrafi zajechac cierpliwosc. Aplikacja to w sumie strona w opakowaniu, za to przegladarkowo smiga bez lagow. Licencje maja z Curacao — nie MGA, wiem, natomiast wyplaty realizuja i tyle mi wystarczy. Ktos pytal wyzej o inne budy, typu nv casino czy jest bezpieczne — tam nie zagladalem, wiec sie nie wypowiem.

  11. طيب أنا بقالي كام شهر بشتغل على الموقع ده وفكرت أقول رأيي بدل ما الناس تسأل في الخاص. أول حاجة إن كتالوج السلوتس ضخم — أكتر من 6000 لعبة على ما أظن، والجودة مش وحشة زي مواقع تانية. Pragmatic Play ليها نصيب الأسد ووطبعًا NetEnt وYggdrasil.

    أنا شخصيًا بقعد أطحن في Sweet Bonanza، وواحد صاحبي مش بيقوم من على Book of Dead. اللي جربته الفترة اللي فاتت كانت ألعاب Big Time Gaming وعجبتني صراحة. إنما اللي بيضايقني إن فلترة الألعاب بيهنج أحيانًا لما تكون الألعاب كتير.

  12. OK — been using this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, for context.

    The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I never could work out what an ew return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.

    Their single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — type in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, honestly that’s where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here accumulator calculator — free, no signup.

    One thing that actually shifted things for me were the nerdier bits. The probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too for when I’m covering two or three runners.

    It’s not perfect mind. Its layout is pretty plain — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it works though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me just flagging it.

    Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.

  36. WOW! That is what you believe that scripture means? This is what perpetual education buys?

    When it comes to homosexuality, grace, abortion etc, I can always expect someone to surprise me. I’ve seen debates where verbally bludgeoning people to death in the name of God reaches a level that rivals the dark ages. Not this time. It wasn’t that at all. It’s your claim that Rev 11 is about recycling, or even environmentally grounded that brought today’s surprise.

    Listen, I absolutely believe in our obligation to care for Gods creation, but seriously?

    I totally get the point you’re trying to make. I make it all the time. Mankind has an obsession with creating a moral scale by which degrees of sin are ranked and filed. Rev 11, tho? Where’s your scripture back up for that one in light of it’s obvious meaning?

    ~JJ

  37. Rather engaging rhetoric; or perhaps its just a hot topic, but 177,000 shares says you’ve got something goin on in yo brain boy. I like your hypothetical conclusiveness: eg., “if you …. then you’ve gotta ….” And your main point is spot on: we are not called to “judge” others [now].

    Still, are we really talking apples to apples here? No, as a number of comments have already noted. On the one hand you’ve got a definite moral behavior category with something like 3500 years of specific clarity, and on the other you’ve got a general principle that requires exegetical nuance and reasonable contemporary contextual extrapolation to establish; same gender sexual activity versus creation mandated husbandry regarding recycling plastics. The literal yet ambiguous use of “destroyers of the earth” in Revelation hardly comes close to the specificity of proscribed moral behaviors; all the more so since the author of Rev. himself undoubtedly included same gender sexual relations in the category of _porneias_, or “sexual immorality.” The author’s use of the term earth also seems to be in contrast to heaven; since the earth is emblematic of the created order (as you implicitly affirm regarding ecological issues) it would therefore include matters regarding gendered sexual–creational–relationships as well. So, “those destroying the earth” would likely in the mind of the author of Rev. include those engaging in acts considered to be sexually immoral. Just sayin’

  38. This is so ridiculous a thesis, it does not deserve a response. Kudos to DrVanNostrand for giving it a go. I wouldn’t have wasted the time.

  39. this article makes false assumptions that opposition to homosexual behavior and disregard for the care of this planet are 2 mutually exclusive opinions, if not in scripture then in praxis. the problem is in order for that to work, he needs to prove it is mutually exclusive in praxis. failing that, the argument is specious. you are correct in saying both are a problem, Benjamin, that does not necessarily mean we should address one issue to the exclusion of the other. this logic applies to fundamentalists and progressive christians equally. (for the record I am a practicing catholic who pays as much time applying humanae vitae as he does caritas in veritate and thus am neither a fundamentalist or what passes today under the umbrella term “progressive christian”)

  40. This is one of the dumbest blog posts I have ever read. People who waste their time writing garbage like this should be mandated to repay me for the 5 mins wasted reading this. Your failed attempt to correlate the LGBT community sins with ocean litter is not only ignorant, but to even attempt to correlate the two based on a single scripture demonstrates the garbage that pollutes society today. True, it is not any man’s ability nor place to judge another man, however, the Bible blatantly condemns, in many verses, the acts of homosexuality no matter how you interpret the scripture. Maybe a round three at Gordon-Conwell will better equip you in understanding of the scripture so this garbage doesn’t begin to fool you into believing you’ve developed something insightful.

  41. I saw a video clip of baby birds who were born in an area where the plastic swirls in the ocean, not far from Hawaii. The babies starve to death because the mommy bird doesn’t know what plastic is, she always got food from the ocean. Islands are just dotted with baby birds who starved to death and workers would move the carcass around and there was the plastic in the pile of debris of what used to be a bird. It’s very sad.

  42. I see a massive opportunity of fishing and sorting plastics in key areas such as the Pacific where they build up. Vast islands of plastic collect and I am sure a suitable vessel or platform could have a massive effect on catching the plastics as they build up and collect. Essentially there is a vast opportunity here for recycling.

    It is easy to look at a situation in dismay but there is also hope and opportunity in this.

  43. I’m disappointed with this blog entry. In your previous entry discussing Gay Christians, you encourage Christians to reconsider long-held beliefs, approach key Scripture verses with a fresh set of eyes, and to at least give some thought to the fact that other exegetical interpretations of various Scriptures exist.

    However, in this post, I find none of the exegesis that you extol in your previous post. It would have been nice to see you exegete Revelation 11:18 and support your conclusion that the phrase “those who destroy the earth” refers to those who do not recycle.

    Granted, one plausible interpretation of “those who destroy the earth” is that the phrase refers to the ecologically irresponsible. On the other hand, that phrase could also refer to people who literally destroy the earth through warfare or it could be referring to those who corrupt the earth.

    The Greek verb diaphthero can mean to destroy, kill, or ruin in the physical sense, but it can also refer to moral ruin or corruption. That verb is used twice in verse 18; the thorny issue with exegeting this passage is determining how the verb is used both times and whether the verb could have different meanings each time it is used.

    I contend that the verb has two different meanings in Revelation 11:18. In the first usage, God is the subject, and thus the verb should be given a meaning connoting physical destruction. This is consistent with other passages, such as Genesis 8, in which God executes judgment by undertaking destructive action. The second usage of the verb arguably refers to individuals who damage the earth through immoral conduct. Not only is this an acceptable rendering of the verb diaphthero, but it is also consistent with the overall message of Revelation.

    I’m not arguing that this interpretation is definitive, but I do believe that it is not only a plausible interpretation but also one that is more faithful to the overall message as stated in Revelation. Regardless, I am open to considering other viewpoints.

    1. And this is the exegesis I would have liked in the article. Although I’m a bit confused as to your point (so you do not agree with Benjamin, correct?), I’m glad that someone took the time to examine the Greek.

    2. Benjamin did not do proper exegesis on purpose. The purpose of the article is to say: If you take the gay-related verses on face value, then you should also do that with other verses. If we do that, pretty soon we will all be going to hell 😉

        1. Sorry, I don’t get your point then. Same gender sex has been and continues to be fully and (I think) adequately exegeted for thousands of years. You could have simply said we are not given authority to judge any individual in a single sentence if that was all you wanted to say.

        2. I’d like to know one other thing. You often use the long-held beliefs of early Christian leaders to legitimize your argument and validate your claim to the “only” truth w/regard to other topics. Can you tell me what homosexuality meant to Christians for the first few hundred years post Christ as you have with other subject matter? You make them seem so inerrant, I can’t help but believe that they must have some influence on your thoughts.

      1. We already are going to hell. The whole point of the law is that it reveals how far we are separated from God. Wether it’s stewardship of creation, sexual purity, care for our neighbors, whatever. We all fall short- He forgives and saves the everyone who repents and submit to His Kingship.

  44. On the bright side, Climate Change is something the Republicans can’t blame on LGBT people (seeing as how CC is a myth and all…)

  45. It does seem people are blind to the myriad of text in the Bible that name explicit sins yet harp on the stuff dealing with sexual expression, style of clothing, “bad words” or body ornamentation yet forget this verse. Destroying the good things of the Earth has to be the most devastating of any of the things I listed. Those who willfully do it for a profit and then try to lie about doing it are criminal at best. Their cushy, privileged position will not stand at when judgment day sneaks up on them. I believe most of the major wars being fought today are just pissing contest to see who is going to be king of the garbage mountain that is looming over us. At least the meek stand to inherit a new earth after the vultures are done away with.

      1. I’ve also may written this with a little sarcasm but still I believe that greed and the love of money is actually a tight stronghold for Satan and his minions. One might forget the devil got turned down when he offered Christ all the Kingdoms of the earth (therefore implying absolute control and obscene riches, not just the power to rule or make decisions). Christ is seen as the good King willing to put himself out for His subjects, ruling with beneficence and humility, whereas Satan wants to have profitable endeavors that benefit a select few but do nothing good for the whole. Kind of ironic that Satan wanted to control something that has such limited resources and will surely bring his demise when they run out. Satan and his angels i.e. the vultures, will be banished along with anyone else that has conspired with them. The love of money is the root of all evil” makes even more sense in this light and is why I see things the way I do. Thanks for helping me clarify in a more straightforward way,

  46. I think you picked a poor example of condemned behavior (not recycling), especially given the ambiguity of the verse you used (considerably more ambiguous than those on homosexual behavior, not to say that there isn’t ambiguity there)… But I strongly agree with your point.

    1. Actually he did not and I’ll tell the reasons. The behavior he is highlighting in this article, in contrast here to the 6 prohibitive passages that pertain to certain same sex activities, is actually going to destroy this Earth. The other things clearly condemned in scripture, such as idol worship, adultery and homicide also pale in comparison in respect of what is slowly being done to the planet. Most of the stuff that serves as sin in mostly interpersonal in nature but here this has to do with a sin against the whole of creation ie The Earth which largely ignored. J/S

      1. You make a very good point. My only problem was that “destroying the earth” could be interpreted a number of ways, as a physical destruction, a spiritual/moral destruction, or a destruction of people… It’d be necessary to examine the Greek. With that said, the verses condemning homosexuality are ambiguous as well for entirely separate reasons, but that’s an entirely different discussion…

        1. True. Another interesting point. It is also safe to surmise that those who are most immediately being affected by Climate and ocean pollution/destruction are also being plunged into despair. This kind of hopelessness can destroy the spiritual ties a man has if he gives in to it. Obviously this kind of critical, radical disruption can be another toe hold for the Enemy to push people away from God toward Nihilism. Trials can either build you spiritually or tear you down but Satan is always the one unleashed as the test giver. I would like to think we could do something to minimize such devious temptation by eliminating as much suffering as possible. This is article highlights one such place.

          1. ” I would like to think we could do something to minimize such devious temptation by eliminating as much suffering as possible.” I like that. I love being able to have rational discussions on blog comments, doesn’t happen very often lol
