progressive christian

Progressive Christianity is developed from liberal Christianity, they believe that God is the powerful and loving creator of the universe every galaxy, stars, planet and every living thing on earth.
They believe the Bible should be taken seriously but not literally and should be read to guide your moral conscience, they also think it's important to understand the historical context around the bible.
Some of them believe that although Christianity is their path to God, it's not the only one and it's different for everybody, it could be Islam for one person, Hinduism for another, and even Atheist have their path to God simply by being good people.
They support Gay rights, They're Pro-choice and Pro Sexuality and they don't reject science.

Although most Conservative/ fundamentalist Christians will tell you to ignore your feeling, Progressives believe it's important to not ignore them and always try to do whats right.

Most of them take care in the environment and others. we are to look after Gods creation including ourself and others.
And let me tell you no one hate progressive Christians more than Christians. they get called the Antichrist, false preachers, devils advocates, Heresy, "what's worse than an atheist, a progressive Christian", they're going to hell and whatnot.
A Christian who constantly preaches that God loves every single person whether they are a part of the lgbtq+ community, whether they've had abortion whether they don't believe in God ... is most likely a progressive Christian

Progressive Christian

A person who makes stuff up using faith just like evangelicals, but by appropriating humanist values and then proceeds to give all the credit to Jesus. Progressive Christians like to talk about deconstruction to help distance themselves from evangelicals, but they're also known for being deconstruction gatekeepers at the same time. They'll say deconstruction is okay as long as you keep your faith in Jesus by the end of your journey.
"Some of y'all have deconstructed so much that you're rejoicing when someone tosses his faith away. Not here for that." - Progressive Christian

Cool people who, unlike their fundamentalist counterparts, don't need to turn their backs on modern science to keep their faith alive
The famous Jewish philosopher Maimonides once said that if science conflicts with Scripture, then it must be Scripture we have misunderstood.
It's sad these words of wisdom died out so long ago

Since creationists are likely to disagree with the idea that modern science like evolution is sufficiently supported, I'll go ahead and quote the renowned biologist Douglas Futuyma,

"The statement that organisms have descended with modifications from common ancestors—the historical reality of evolution—is not a theory. It is a fact, as fully as the fact of the earth's revolution about the sun."

Theodosius Dobzhansky had this to say in his famous paper "Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution",

"I am a creationist and an evolutionist. Evolution is God's, or Nature's method of creation. Creation is not an event that happened in 4004 BC; it is a process that began some 10 billion years ago and is still under way."

He also wrote,

"Does the evolutionary doctrine clash with religious faith? It does not. It is a blunder to mistake the Holy Scriptures for elementary textbooks of astronomy, geology, biology, and anthropology. Only if symbols are construed to mean what they are not intended to mean can there arise imaginary, insoluble conflicts. ...the blunder leads to blasphemy: the Creator is accused of systematic deceitfulness."
Liberal/progressive Christians do not believe in a deceiving God. They know that, considering the overwhelming amount of evidence for evolution, to deny it would be equivalent to denying the existence of ancient Rome or Greece.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."
