For context, Hugh Nibley was a prolific apologist for the mainstream Mormon church.

Sorry for being unclear: the roided up and jacked cops are one problem. The overweight ones are another. The former are more likely to have problematic attitudes (specifically: roid rage) than the latter, which your proposed physical fitnes

There's already a problem with roided-out cops, who aren't going to have any problems passing your hypothetical three mile run test. You're probably thinking in particular about the fat guy by the cake, but I've met guys

The Aeropex/OpenRun is a massive improvement over my TREKZ Titanium from 2016. Still not anywhere near comparable to some nice headphones or IEMs.

That’s a standard admonishment given to the accused when they are accepting a plea deal. The only thing the prosecution can offer is a recommendation to the sentencing judge. Usually the judges agree, but they don’t always.

The Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Churches consider it canonical, which is why we still have complete copies of it, albeit in Ge'ez.

The problem with that oversimplification is that provenance is much bigger than authentication and authentication is much bigger than provenance. Sure, some of the work overlaps, but they're distinct. When provenance research shows up

Not quite. Provenance is the story of how an object came from the ground to wherever it is now. The question of authentication is larger than provenance. If there's good documentation showing the object originally came from an archeolo

Sure, the Rittenhouse coverage and how people responded to it was terrible. People saw what they wanted to see, regardless of the facts. But the whole situation was ammunition for the culture war and not really a matter of public concern mo

The John the Baptist story was an attempt to get the remnants of John's followers to follow The Way (early Christianity). John's followers today, the Mandaeans, consider Jesus to be a false Messiah or a prophet of lies.

Much of the "stealing" arguably isn't. Just to pick a notable example, the Rosetta Stone was given to the British by the Egyptian government.
