Not sure on the Linux side, but on the Windows side, allowing the network adapter to enter power saving mode seems to tell the router to deprioritize it, at least in my experience. I'm mostly an Ubuntu in Hyper-V guy, and Windows 11 Pro, so grain of salt and all that...

Paul was a human with all the trappings and insecurities of any other human. We may never know how he met his end, but if he had never done anything else other than write 1 Corinthians 13, we can know that there was some good in the man.

Nobody really knows. BUT... if we are to believe the "account" of his beheading, should we not also believe that milk came out of his neck instead of blood? Should we accept all of that story from the Acts of Paul or only believe part of that story? Or maybe it's just a later story.

Can I be forgiven for thinking that you could easily confuse the Apostle Paul with some narcissistic cult-leader with delusions of grandeur? Because I can see how someone would think that now, LOL.

Well, you know me, I'm a cynical skeptic. So, I'm going with, to give him the best chance of getting their financial support so he could go to Spain, after he dropped off the hoard of cash in Jerusalem. Then he was never heard from again..... Until the fan-fiction of Acts a generation later.

I did listen to it, not sure I fully understood it, though. It's weird how he writes an in-depth theological treatise to a church he doesn't claim to have founded (or even visited, up to that point?). The whole thing is weird.

I should have said, why freedom of religion includes freedom from religion as a core principle.

Why freedom from religion is more important than freedom of: given two religions A and B, must be free from A to choose B, and free from B to choose A, and being free from both is logical extension of principle.
