EuroTrip | Part 42 | Record-Breaking Title Race
#FM24 #EuroTrip Part 42: Record-Breaking Title Race. Trebor Mahtal keeps the good times rolling in Belarus as he leads @FCBATE to a record-breaking 20th domestic title. And, now aged 77, he considers retiring from football. Read here:
An unbelievable run of form saw BATE Borisov storm from close to the relegation zone to nicking a record-equalling 19th Belarussian title under the tutelage of legendary manager Trebor Mahtal. The Zambian’s latest success saw him lift the 25th domestic title of his 37-year career, leaving him unsure over whether to stick with BATE or look for new options elsewhere. But he was enjoying life in…

A Son Promised to Abraham and Sarah
1 Later, the Lord again appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre. At that time Abraham was sitting at the door of his tent. It was during the hottest part of the day. 2 He looked up and saw three men standing near him. When Abraham saw them, he ran from his tent to meet them. He bowed facedown on the ground before them. 3 Abraham said, “Sir, if you think well of me, please stay awhile with me, your servant. 4 I will bring some water so all of you can wash your feet. You may rest under the tree. 5 I will get some bread for you, so you can regain your strength. Then you may continue your journey.”
The three men said, “That is fine. Do as you said.”
6 Abraham hurried to the tent where Sarah was. He said to her, “Hurry, prepare 20 quarts of fine flour. Make it into loaves of bread.” 7 Then Abraham ran to his cattle. He took one of his best calves and gave it to a servant. The servant hurried to kill the calf and to prepare it for food. 8 Abraham gave the three men the calf that had been cooked. He also gave them milk curds and milk. While the three men ate, he stood under the tree near them.
9 The men asked Abraham, “Where is your wife Sarah?”
“There, in the tent,” said Abraham.
10 Then the Lord said, “I will certainly return to you about this time a year from now. At that time your wife Sarah will have a son.”
Sarah was listening at the entrance of the tent which was behind him. 11 Abraham and Sarah were very old. Sarah was past the age when women normally have children. 12 So she laughed to herself, “My husband and I are too old to have a baby.”
13 Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh? Why did she say, ‘I am too old to have a baby’? 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord? No! I will return to you at the right time a year from now. And Sarah will have a son.”
15 Sarah was afraid. So she lied and said, “I didn’t laugh.”
But the Lord said, “No. You did laugh.” — Genesis 18:1-15 | International Children’s Bible (ICB) The Holy Bible, International Children’s Bible® Copyright© 1986, 1988, 1999, 2015 by Thomas Nelson.

I haven't read enough comics to speak to the validity of this post, but I find it funny. Also, does The Spectre even pay taxes? With Jim Corrigan being dead (although i don't think he told anyone he was dead), does he even still pay them? Same with Doctor Fate. The man lives in a tower without windows or a door. I pity the IRS agent in charge of his case..
And you know, I could almost see The Spectre being a homophobic jerk. I mean... he's the avatar of vengeance for the old testament god. The old testament god flooded the earth because people weren't sufficiently faithful, he broke the tower of babel because he was petty and mad at humanity, he kicked adam and eve out of his garden because they dared pursue knowledge. The man was a jerk, even by religion standpoints. So any agent of the abrahamic old testament god might be pretty nasty themselves.
I am so sorry

""That's right, pal," says Number Seven. "And take it in these shops. If they'd even teach a guy a trade - make him learn a trade you wouldn't mind. Then a guy would have something to fall back on if he felt like hitting the straight and narrow. But what do they do? They put you to work making automobile plates, or something that's only done in prisons; stuff you couldn't get a job at outside if you wanted to; and the machinery is all twenty years out of date; and the instructors don't know anything about up-to-date methods; and the materials you get to work with are so lousy that you can't learn to do decent work even if you want to. Here I am. I've been working in the shoeshop for five years. What good will that do me? In the first place, the work I'm doing is done by women and children outside; it don't pay any- thing; and if I tried to get away with the lousy kind of work I've been taught to do, I wouldn't last two hours in an outside shop. The print shop is the only shop in here where a guy could learn a decent trade; but Christ, there's only room for forty guys in that shop, and you have to be a high-school graduate to get in there. That don't do the rest of us any good. There's a thousand men here, and only room for forty or so over in the print shop. And not only that, but So-and-So was always threatening to close the print shop because it didn't show enough profits. That's all they think about here. They damn about us learning a trade; all they is having the industries show a profit!"
"And take a guy when he gets out of here," says Number Ten. "Times are lousy outside. Even guys who know their trades, guys that can get swell references, can't get a job nowadays. And if they can't get work, how in the name of Christ are we going to get it even if we want it? And the jobs you can get don't pay anything - not enough to live on. A guy might better be in here than out there starving to death. How the hell is a guy going to live on twenty-five or thirty bucks a week, especially if he's married?"

Sunday Afternoon Session
Conducting: Quentin L Cook
Come Rejoice
D Todd Christofferson
A limiting trait is not being valiant in your testimony
Wholehearted devotion is what we should strive for
To make it to and stay in the Celestial Kingdom we must have a firm testimony of Jesus Christ and act on that testimony
Being Valiant in your testimony of Christ
Includes nurturing and strengthening that testimony
Heading His messengers
Encouraging others by word and example
We will not let anything keep us from being together forever
Do the things Jesus shall teach and command you
Taylor G Godoy
God hears our prayers and answers them in a personalized way
Mosiah 5:12
This life by its nature brings about experiences
Call Him, don’t fall
Just because you aren’t answered immediately doesn’t mean your call wasn’t answered at all
Confidence in the Lord’s answers requires accepting that they are not always what would expect in our minds for them to be.
The Lord is the first option for help
Call Don’t Fall (pray)
After prayer do all you can to obtain the answers you pray for
Humbly accept His answers
Softly and Tenderly, Jesus is Calling
Gary E Stevenson
Where is the foundation of your bridge?
The two towers are love the Lord thy God and love your neighbor as thyself – these are the towers that the bridge of the gospel is supported by
Loving the Lord leads to eternal Happiness
Bridges our heavenly upward gaze to our heavenly outward gaze
Love of the Lord is not complete if we do not love our neighbors
Loving your neighbors includes Christlike deeps of love and service
How are you building your tower of love?
“did God call on you specifically, or were you simply the one who listened?”
These towers need to function together in balance, equal devotion, and harmony
God loves everyone and so should we; we seek out those in need and serve them regardless of race, wealth, gender identity, sexual orientation, or anything else
God commanded us to love one another. Leave judgement up to Him
How do we build our own bridge of faith and devotion?
Early drafts become polished blueprints
Mathias Held
Consequences are a part of agency
Repentance is where growth happens
Seek to learn and accept support from the Lord
In the darkness of night we can turn on our lights
We can still choose how to respond to things out of our control
We are agents not objects.
Opposites don’t exist apart from each other, they can complement each other.
Where there is sunshine, shadows must be there too. Floods brings destruction but they bring life as well
Our difficulties do not define us – it is our attitudes and choices that define us much better than our situations
How Firm a Foundation
Niel L Anderson
It is breathtaking to see the works of God
Discipline your faith, what does that mean to you?
Eleazer Cearcy – sealing story – this is why listen to promptings
Angels have charge over us
Through the power of the Holy Ghost we are filled with strength and peace and joy and unspeakable hope.
Many different ways to see the face of Christ and no better place than in His holy house
Mark L Pace
Transform our homes into sanctuaries of faith
The scriptures are here to help us draw closer to Him
How can you avoid personal apostasy?
We are responsible for our own personal spiritual growth
The most important copy of the book of Mormon is the one you read
Heavenly Father wants you to know yourself – but you must put in the effort
Russell M Nelson
Called to apostles 40 years ago!
Six temples when he was born
Ponder what the Lord’s promise means for you personally
The priesthood was restored prior to the church – to ensure that the church could be organized with the correct authority
The priesthood keys are the only way we get the essential ordinances and covenants, the only way we can have blessings the way we do – we can extend all the blessings promised to/by Abraham to all God’s children
D&C 110
The gathering of Israel is evidence God loves all of His children everywhere
The gospel of Abraham is further evidence that God loves all of His children everywhere
The sealing power is supreme evidence that God loves all of His children everywhere and wants them to return to Him
Study Kirtland temple dedicatory prayer in D&C 109
Regular temple worship will enhance how you see yourself
The temple empowers us to take on the challenges of life
You do not have to face life alone
What courage does it give you to know that angels really will help you?
No combination of wickedness will prevail over those who worship in the house of the Lord
Nothing will help you more to hold fast to the iron rod than attending the temple as regularly as you can, nothing will protect you more, nothing will bolster your testimony of Christ and His atonement, or recognize the significance of His plan, nothing will soothe your spirit more, nothing will open the blessings of Heavens more
15 temples:
Uturoa, French Polynesia
Chihuahua, Mexico
Florianopolis, Brazil
Rosario, Argentina
Edinburgh, Scotland
Brisbane, Australia South Area
Victoria, British Colombia
Yuma, Arizona
Houston, Texas South Area
Des Moines, Iowa
Cincinnati, Ohio
Honolulu Hawaii
West Jordan Utah
Lehi Utah
Maracaibo, Venezuela
Now Let Us Rejoice

Although the battle lines have shifted down through the years from heliocentrism to evolution (and let’s not get started on the age of the Earth), it feels like there’s a fundamental conflict between science and religion, especially with respect to the Abrahamic religions like Christianity and Islam. I (Christina), the host of this podcast episode, as a scientist and atheist who tends to assume all scientists are atheists—because how could they not be?—am definitely guilty of thinking this.
Yet, there is a long tradition of curiosity, inquiry, and, yes, science within the Abrahamic religions and no shortage of devout scientists working hard to this day to understand the workings of the world and cosmos. I decided that it was time to confront my assumptions by talking to one of my religious colleagues. Thank you in advance to Dr Norm Nelson—an oceanographer whose Christianity is a core part of his life—for discussing whether or not there is a conflict between science and Christianity, and where the roots of that conflict might lie.

My first true fandom as we know it {probably Arthurian Legend was my first and truest fictional love}, and one I have been faithful to for over 25 years. Honestly never please talk to me about it, because I have rabid opinions about literally everything. And lastly, I only included tv/movies here because books and rpgs would require an entire three or four Long Ass Posts all of their own. Much Love.

If they had a proper crossover.
Now I know that one of the Treehouse of Horrors had the Simpsons visit the restaurant. But this is what I think should happen if they did a proper crossover like Simpsorama. Also. Heads up. I’m not a fan of Marge or Lisa so watch out for that.
Linda would probably be one Homer’s new best friend and the Darling of Moe’s tavern. And then have to be physically carried to the car in the morning.
Marge would probably make a lifelong enemy of Bob when she tries to offer up suggestions on how to make the restaurant more family friendly.
Tina meets her match in Bart when she offers to babysit. The experience would either make her stronger or break her completely.
Lisa wouldn’t be able to stop herself from criticising Gene’s music and/or eating habits to the point that Louise threatens her life.
Louise Belcher and Maggie Simpson. Partners in crime. Enough said.
Ned would drive Jimmy Pesto to tears with his unrelenting niceness and religiousness. However. Rod and Todd would get on with Jimmy Junior and the twins oddly well.
Zeke would try and get Nelson (and possibly the other three) to change their ways. To varying levels of success. Ie. Not much.
Frond and Skinner would share horror stories about their students.
Calvin and Burns would have a competition to see who was more evil.
Felix would get into debt with Fat Tony and try to sell Calvin’s kidneys on eBay as Slightly Calcified Faberge Eggs. And wouldn’t be seen again for the rest of the episode.
Waylon and Ron would bond over having bosses who don’t appreciate them.
Patty and Selma would find someone they hate more than Homer in Gayle.
Rudy and Milhouse would bond over their asthma.
Somebody (not Louise) unleashes Milly on the Lovejoy’s. The church is never the same again. Some would say for the better. More would say for the worse.
Gloria and Al get kicked out of the Retirement Castle. Much to Linda’s joy and Bob’s horror. Abraham and Jasper will miss them very much.
Clancy and Bosco end up in physical brawl over how to handle a case
Barney, Lenny, Carl and Teddy also get into a fight. But it’s over who’s a better friend.
LaBonz and Hoover disagree over teaching methods.
Ralph gets lost at Wonder Wharf and is rescued by Mickey.
Big Bob gets into a fight with Apu over business practices. Apu wins. Mostly because of the octuplets and Manjula. But Big Bob gave as good as he got.
