Rejection is protection

This quote means that if something doesn't go your way (you're rejected) it probably means there is something better out there for you (being protected).

"I'm really sad I didnt get the main part."
"Don't worry, rejection is protection there will be something better out there for you!"

kobe bryant protocol

The act of paying an alleged sexual assault victim for their silence. Mostly known for its successful employment by Kobe Bryant. Though the allegations may be false and a form of extortion, its the smartest move to save a career.

Chad: Did you hear Antonio Brown lost an endorsement because of the sexual assault allegations against him?

Mark: He should have just employed the Kobe Bryant Protocol and taken the 2 million dollar hit. Now he is losing much more as a result.

Protection Racket

A business combination of extortion schemes controlled by a criminal syndicate. For the "promise" of security, significant sums of money are seized from persons, businesses, communities, or even nations. While the racketeer may in fact provide real protection, it is at a cost the victim would never voluntarily assume under normal circumstances. Often the promise of security is accompanied by a veiled threat.

"This is President Obama calling. Don't think of this as some kind of Protection Racket...think about it as life insurance. Your country has numerous external security threats. You are also very dependent on trade for continued economic growth. It would be terrible to experience a security failure in that part of the world. We stand ready to protect you against that kind of threat. But in order to do that we need about a billion dollars this week. Recognize we are partners in this now. It takes a village. We know we can count on your support.

protestant

I am not a Christian myself, but I see that some of you are mistaking Protestants for being highnosed killjoys or whatever (maybe some of them are, but...). The truth is, being a protestant does not mean you're being a goodie-little-two-shoes. The difference between Catholics and Protestants is that Protestants aren't as 'faithful'. For example, they reject Papal authority. They also have priestesses and allow priests to marriage.

Basically the whole Protestant concept is that all you need to do is believe in and be faithful to god. It is then that your sins will be forgiven. Back in the 16th century, the Church sold indulgences, claiming that if you bought them, god will forgive you. Luther didn't think this was right. He thought that the Church was manipulating the people so that they could raise money for the St. Peter's Cathedral in Rome! And so he protested against the church authorities, claiming that you didn't need these indulgences. Nor did you have to attend regular masses, do pilgrimage or worship holy relics. "In a way everyone is their own temple." was his quote.
Luther's argument caused an uproar in society. The people were already sick of paying the church taxes, so they too revolted. The Reformation followed, although originally, Martin Luther never intended a revolution...

As I have learned from Urban Dictionary, the conflict between Catholics and Protestants still goes on to this very day. I hope this has opened some of your eyes and that in near future there will finally be peace between Catholics and Protestants.

If you don't think I am right about this, just google Martin Luther or next time, pay attention in history.

PS: I do understand that there are some Protestants that do wrong against Jews/Gays or anyone who is different. I find this extremely disturbing; it is not right. But then there are also catholic people like that. You find them everywhere, ...trust me.

Protestant: You Christians suck I hate you! Kill all the gays blablabla

TRUE Protestant: I believe in god, I rawk ;D
