Soul is a Good Movie Ruined from the Outside

Posted on June 1, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

I wrote about why Pixar’s Soul is actually a horrible depiction of a black American man who gets killed before the movie is halfway done, and then isn’t a black man for almost ALL of the rest of the film. I explained how, not only is the lead character, Joe, a poor depiction of SEVERAL unflattering stereotypes of black men in America, but then when his body is taken over by a white woman, everything in his life starts to go BETTER. But with all of my criticisms (which I stand by) I do want to take the time to tell you that, if you have Disney+, you should give it a watch.

Here’s the reasons why:

I Don’t Understand Calvinism (Yes I do)

Posted on May 30, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

My feed brought up a link to a video where in James White (Calvinist) and Doug Wilson (Calvinist) debate each other about Child Communion (I don’t care). I was the first person in the comment’s section, and so I put on the Snark Locks Key and typed the following:

Calvinist Vs Calvinist! Each presenting the position they were determined to hold and praying that God determines the other to change his mind because we don’t have the free will to be persuaded and choose to believe!

As you can imagine, the comments under my comment have been lively. Some non-Calvinists got the gist right away. Weirdly, some Calvinists have not been as accepting of my brilliant summation.

Pizza Robots are Taking Over the World!

Posted on May 28, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange
Behold your doom! Your delicious, convenient doom!

When Trump was “voted” out of office because of low gas prices and his historically high employment rates, especially among black, Hispanic and female workers… oops! I meant, because of his mean Tweets (some of which- according to a special report by CNN which I am NOT making up- even contained MISSPELLINGS) one of the things the Democratic left was DEMANDING was a higher minimum wage. A “Living Wage.”

People like millionaire Bernie “Mittens” Sanders was demanding that the toilet scrubber at McDonalds make AT LEAST $15 an hour. THIS, they insisted, is a BASIC HUMAN RIGHT! Along with healthcare, Wi-Fi, and the password to someone’s Netflix account. EVERYONE, they insisted, deserves to make a LIVING WAGE!

Evolution was developed by Cartographers? Also, Puppy Killing | Feedback Friday!

Posted on May 27, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

Welcome to Feedback Friday! I recently received this comment from a faithful reader (And by “Faithful”, naturally I mean she is an atheist/evolutionist/animal rights advocate who has stopped by a few times to assure me that I am an idiot.) Here is her comment in its entirety:

Pixar’s Soul has no Heart (and it’s racist)

Posted on May 25, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

Disney/Pixar’s Soul was paraded in ads as the FIRST Disney/Pixar movie with a black lead character! An actual African American person on screen, voiced by an actual African American person behind the scenes! And many of us said to ourselves, “Wait… what happened to Frozone from Disney/Pixar’s Incredibles and Incredibles 2?”

“Honey? Where is my public recognition?”

Do you see that Barack Obama? That’s what it’s going to be like when America gets a president with TWO black parents. You will be the presidential Frozone. But I digress.

A “Consistent” Calvinist Clears Things Up

Posted on May 23, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

Ok, look. I don’t want to become one of those people who writes about Calvinism all of the time. The ONLY REASON I’m doing this is because I love you guys, and I want to save you a huge amount of time. I watched NINE HOURS of John Piper so I could explain TULIP to you. Now I’m going to tackle one of the strangest parts of Calvinism that I only discovered recently: Devine Determinism.

Devine Determinism teaches that EVERYTHING that EVER HAPPENS is DETERMINED by God. Not merely allowed and then used by his Wisdom to bring about His good plans, but DETERMINED. God is the great puppet master, and we are his puppets (But don’t say that to a Calvinist because they hate it even though, technically, they agree with it). In short, they have decided that we do not have free will.

Communism and the Toilet Boy

Posted on May 21, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

For some reason, the kids who go to universities are getting their brains surgically removed and becoming communists. I guess it was the next logical step after face piercings.

You will hear them insist that it is only fair for workers to share in the profits. Why should the owner make more money than THEM when THEY are doing all of the work? And if your brain has been surgically removed, this probably sounds convincing. But let’s consider a few things:

Toilet boy, you’ll be a toilet man someday…

1. If it’s fair for workers to share in the profits, then it is also fair for workers to share in the losses.

Painting Atheists with a Broad Brush | Feedback Friday!

Posted on May 20, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

In response to THIS ARTICLE, Jim wrote in and said:

You paint a very broad brush. You have no idea what kind of thoughtfulness and love there is in my home. Atheist and Catholics tied for the lowest divorce rates

You may not believe me, but this is the entire comment. Doesn’t that last sentence seem to come out of left field? I replied anyway.

Florida: “What? No, go ahead and say Gay.”

Posted on May 18, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

The news has been ALL a buzz about the governor of Florida trying to pass a law to make it ILLEGAL to even TALK about homosexuals. It’s called the “Don’t Say GAY Bill,” and it would make it illegal for teachers to say the word “GAY” in schools. Hollywood celebrities came out to show their courage and confident understanding by saying things like, ” GAY GAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAY.” And also taking to social media to add, “GAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAYGAY. #GAY”

Sure the kids know their ABC’s but do they know their Sodomies?

Despite being the smartest and most moral people in the whole universe, the Hollywood celebrities who chimed in on this matter managed to miss a few small, yet still relevant facts about this proposed legislation.

First, it was NOT called the “Don’t Say Gay,” bill. It was called the “Parental Rights in Education” Bill. And secondly, it has absolutely nothing to do with making it illegal to say “Gay.” It merely seeks to ban pornography and discussions of things like Sodomy at grades 4 and under.

So, you can still say “Gay” in Florida. No one cares.

Tip Toeing Through the TULIP (or, I watched nine hours of John Piper so you don’t have to)

Posted on May 16, 2022 by A Bit Of Orange

I wasn’t raised a Calvinist, but I have been immersed in Calvinistic churches for a long many years now, and most of the pastors I listened to on line have been Calvinists. So, I knew it existed, and I knew Calvinism was locked in an eternal struggle against the evil forces of Armenianism.

Those filthy heretics.

This is the hand that slapped a thousand Arminians like Will Smith slapped Chris Rock!
