    I try to speak respectfully to whoever I speak to and that includes using pronouns they want so getting it wrong is always unintentional. But I’ll still always speak to any group of people as “you guys”. I use that speaking to my 16 yo daughter and her girl friends. It’s just not gendered speech, and I know some disagree but whatever

    There’s a lawyer I like to watch on YouTube but once he advocated jif pronunciation and I’ve barely watched him since then. If he apologized I might change my opinion. What’s even worse is that he’s obsessed with proper pronunciation. I think he was just trying to create drama to drive interactions but for me it backfired.





  • I’m not asserting that the polling is wrong, but I would say that for many people polled it could be misunderstood.

    From a Biblical worldview, God can influence leaders. Both who is put into office, and to some extent even change their hearts about situations to control their impacts in the world.

    That is to say God can, not that every leader is chosen by God and even less so that every leader is approved by God. Many times God is shown allowing bad leaders as a judgement of the people.

    So even among those polled who said they believe he was appointed by God, it doesn’t mean all of them thought it was a positive endorsement. I think if God chose him, it’s because he’s the leader we deserve.
