The Soda Shop Message Boards

Haha, sorry, I meant something like what exists in Germany and Italy where a small percent of your income tax gets directed to the religious organization you are a member of.

Oh no, I think there should be total separation of Church and State.

What music do you listen to these days?

Not a big music fan, here's the Spotify list I listen to https://open.spotify.com/user/ddsilver/ ... bUP8XJ_hKw

ELi5 the Orthodox doctrine of the Trinity. How can the Son be derived from the Father and still be uncreated?

He proceeds eternally from the Father, He is not created.

What are you still doing in Soda Land? Last I knew, you had packed your bags and left.

That was quite awhile ago. There were some interesting debates so I decided to come back. What are you doing back?

It called to me so I returned. Plus there's always a few matters that need to be settled.

How do you make such amazing bread? Am I allowed to know, or would you have to kill me if you told me?

I just follow the recipe, King Arthur's Flour

The interview booth is open for business again. Ask away.

Woah, it's the legendary Eleventh Doctor!
Polehaus53 here, pleasure to make your acquaintance. You've probably seen me around.

What have you been up to since your last posts here?

What is one of the biggest things you've learned through your time here on the Soda Shop?

What is your least favorite dessert?

What is your favorite vegetable?

Oh wow, I stopped posting in 2020. A lot has happened since then. I went back to school, I never finished my undergrad degree so I'm getting a degree in communications. I started going to therapy, I'm now a firm believer that everyone should at least try it, and got help for my anxiety.

The biggest thing I've learned through my time here. I'd say it is that people change. Looking back at some of the old debates not only have I changed but a lot of the people return to older topics and talk about how they can't believe what they sounded like then. It can feel pointless to discuss and debate important issues but you never know what a difference you're making to someone else.

Least favorite dessert, I don't actually eat desserts or sweet things so I guess all of them?

Favorite vegetable, probably asparagus. I like to grill it and finish it with some parmesan chees.
