Hey @Pete Winn (or someone ambitious and knowledgeable enough to pull this off) - know what would be cool? A bar chart showing how many players got 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, and 6s, per challenge. Maybe even an npub bot that publishes once a day? That would be dope. Would zap. #WORD5
If, when you see the culture failing all around, you think "we need to force people to be different, maybe religious establishment wasn't such a bad idea...," then you're a Statist. Literally. If, however, when you see the culture failing all around, and you think, "we need to reach more people with the gospel," then you're probably on a much better path. "Culture is religion externalized." -- Henry Van Til "The greatest political act you can do is to share the gospel with your neighbor." ~ C. S. Lewis Stop bowing before the idol of power, Christian.

"The mass-man is one who has neither the force of intellect to apprehend the principles issuing in what we know as the humane life, nor the force of character to adhere to those principles steadily and strictly as laws of conduct; and because such people make up the great and overwhelming majority of mankind, they are called collectively the masses. The line of differentiation between the masses and the Remnant is set invariably by quality, not by circumstance. The Remnant are those who by force of intellect are able to apprehend these principles, and by force of character are able, at least measurably, to cleave to them. The masses are those who are unable to do either."

As Nock observes in his essay, the remnant will find you." (Fesko) - J. V. Fesko, commenting on - Albert Jay Nock, "Isaiah's Job" ...long live the remnant. GM
Just lost a draft (as cranky as it was long) on a subject that most of us are pretty tired of hearing about. Said draft even ended with a smattering of 14 academic-type titles to "DYOR" with. Which is to say: - it's gone; - I'm not re-writing it; - you're welcome; and - GN
The state bears not the sword in vain. The church bears not the sword at all. Nor does she grasp after it--like Eve, who thought the forbidden fruit "looked good to her." Nor does she even look its way. We look heavenward for a better city, one with foundations, whose builder and maker is God--for here we have no continuing city. #PilgrimsAndExiles
