    Elohim derives from El, the chief god in the Canaanite pantheon, and the father of other gods (such as Baal and Yahweh). El also appeared in the religions of many neighboring societies in the near east.

    In Canaanite societies and in Hebrew, the name El became genericised, so the name could be used as a title for any god or for god powers in general.

    God is multitudinous and thus worthy of the title, but also one single god dont you dare worship any other

    In terms of the Hebrew Bible, it’s more like different parts were written by different people at different times, with various views on polytheism, henotheism, and monotheism. Elohim is grammatically plural, and in some places it is used as a plural to refer to multiple deities. In other places it agrees with singular forms, similar to “royal we”, or it becomes an abstract term for divinity as a concept.









    1. The judge was really pissed off. He is requiring sworn affidavits that prove that everyone on plane #3 has some valid basis for removal that is not AEA.

    2. The government argues that planes #1 and #2 departed before the written order was entered (judge gave the oral order in court at around 6:45, written order about 45 minutes later). They listed some cases about validity of oral bench injunctions.

    3. The government is pissed off with the judge. They filed these really extraordinary emergency appeals in the middle of the night in the weekend. Normally, you can’t appeal a TRO, because they’re so temporary. They wanted the appeals court to judicially bitch slap the district judge, but that didn’t happen. The appeals court is instead going to consider the appeal on an expedited, but still normalish briefing schedule.

    Overall, some very exciting litigation filings going on in all of these cases, and a bunch of pissed off judges.

    You can check out the Venezuelan case here and here. And Mahmoud Khalil’s habeas petition here, where Khalil’s lawyers just seriously impeached the credibility of Joyce’s sworn affidavits.




  • For any non citizen, non LPR (green card), the border official at the desk holds the final authority on whether to admit. This is true with a visa or without one. US visas (not green cards) can be effectively cancelled at the border with no notice.

    All visitors to the US, visa or no, must overcome a presumption of immigrant intent at the border interview each time they visit.

    Unfortunately, the whole story seems to be legal. I would recommending thru hiking in some less shit hole countries.






  • Guy looks kinda like he’s wearing a jacket with a gap at the waist. That would totally not work. You can’t have a gap that lets air out. The Apollo suits were one piece designs; two piece with a hard shell locking waist ring came later.

    We’re talking nowadays about compression suits that are only inflated around the head and maybe some upper body. Those would help a lot with mobility, but nothing like that has been deployed yet.
