By the time she said “Amen,” Borowicz had invoked Jesus 13 times, deploying the name between prayerful clauses as though it were a comma.

this is a holiness church thing i believe. i hear it on the radio while driving through rural kentucky.

There's a funny cartoon On The Internet about what it would sound like if you used someone's name as often in conversation as often as evangelicals do when they pray.

"Uh Bob, do you mind if Bob you could uh Bob make sixteen Bob copies of this Bob document for me Bob before this afternoon's Bob meeting, Bob thanks so Bob much."

but to be honest of all the weird shit evangelicals do this one at least sounds interesting. like that steve reich piece "it's gonna rain" but real.

Jesus, amen, hallelujah, yes lord - all frequently used as a comma

and the amish aren't afraid of electricity! in fact they usually have dispensation to use some modern tech (even computers) for work purposes. they just try to keep things closer to the lifeways of their ancestors than the rest of us.

Though President Donald Trump has claimed "complete and total exoneration" based on Attorney General William Barr's summary of special counsel Robert Mueller's report on Russian interference in the 2016 election, the American public disagrees, according to a new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS.
A majority (56%) says the President and his campaign have not been exonerated of collusion, but that what they've heard or read about the report shows collusion could not be proven. Fewer, 43%, say Trump and his team have been exonerated of collusion.

I lived in central PA for two years and totally have been to Lock Haven. I don't recall it being rural. It's like every other town.

I really wish there was a bigger crossover between evangelicals and anti-vaxxers; the less of those people on the earth, the better.

Took me a minute to figure out why Jesus Lady's cadence sounded so familiar but I knew it would come to me eventually.

THat's just so adolescent.
Can they actually believe the idea i think that's linked to. Nobody's seen any more of the report than Barr's fudging of it have they.
Do they think they know something or are they just willing stooges.
Just wondering on their level of intentionality

“Y’know, we don’t do like other countries, other countries stand there with machine guns ready to fire. We can’t do that, and I wouldn’t wanna do that. It’s a very effective way of doing it, and I wouldn’t wanna do it, we can’t do it.”

btw did i say how effective it would be if we did do that ?
