A 58-year-old Atheist Adam Curry who set out to debunk God as a conspiracy theory tells Joe Rogan why he now believes.
Adam: I've looked at every conspiracy theory: the moon landing, 9/11, JFK. The one I'd never looked at was God. I'm 58, and I've never been a religious guy. I started reading and asking questions of a couple of Christians I work with. They answered, and nobody pushed anything on me. There's a huge amount written about Jesus, including contemporary books like Evidence That Demands a Verdict.
Adam: I'll tell you, Joe, it changed my outlook on life. It may sound weird coming from me, but I'm all in. Prayer is powerful. It makes me a very happy person.
Joe Rogan: Writing about a thing doesn't mean it happened. Lots of people review and write about The Shining, but that doesn't make it real. How would you know a guy who lived 2,000 years ago was the Son of God?
Adam: I'm not saying I can prove it. I read for three weeks, and the evidence kept coming. Everyone's flawed, and you're forgiven as long as you try to be better. For me it's about love.
Joe: Do you think it's like psychological software you can run? Is that why it's effective, because you don't freak out when things aren't smooth?
Adam: The code is the Bible. I hadn't thought of it that way, but I like it.
Joe: You could prove people believed it. You couldn't prove he was the Son of God.
Adam: Of course not. And if he was, we're all children of God.
Joe: I'm with that.
He set out to debunk it like any other conspiracy theory. He says the evidence went the other way.

Everytime I get mad at my sports team for losing, I remind myself of what Giannis said. Arguably my favorite response to a reporter ever.

What the hell is going on with the 49ers?
Daejon Love allegedly pretends to be a 49ers player and scams women out of $1.3 MILLION, and now X has Somalia jokes flying everywhere. Then owner Jed York gets arrested in a prostitution sting. Kyle Shanahan has a serious wreck, and the team waits 11 days to disclose it.
Fake players. Fraud. Prostitution. Cover-up questions.
Forget a Super Bowl run. The 49ers are putting together a damn Netflix crime series.

Dirk Nowitzki says the two most painful failures of his career are the reason he became the closer he was during the Mavericksā 2011 championship run
āAs it is in life, you have to learn from tough situations, from tough moments. You guys pushed me to be better. It was just a little too predictable.ā
āI said, you have to add more to your game. You have to work hard that summer and be a better leader and a more complete player.ā
āYou guys forced me to get back in the lab and get better and push. I always say, without the disappointments in ā06 and ā07, I wouldnāt have been the closer in ā11.ā
āYou have to go through tough times and learn from tough mistakes and get better.ā

Nellieā¦ You didn't just draft me. You believed in me. You saw things in my game before I ever realized I could do them. I've said it a million times and I will always say it: I don't think my career could have turned out how it did without you being my first coach and giving me the freedom to play my game. I can only say THANK YOU. For everything.
RIP legend.

The most hilarious thing about this clip is what an uncomfortable tool @StephenAtHome is when confronted with sarcasm about how stupid you had to be to believe Fauciās bullshit.

šØ SHERIDAN GORMAN'S MOM JUST NOW TO DEMOCRATS:
"I need you to imagine this is YOUR daughter."
"Because I'm VERY sure you won't be cutting off anyone when they're speaking."
"You won't, I'd be very sure you won't call this a 'political stunt!'"
"The grief is real. Every day I wake up with unimaginable pain. I wake up in the middle of the night and I think, did my daughter cry for me? She made it 40 feet, she made it 40 feet running for her life. Did she cry out for me? She died on that pavement all by herself, lonely, bleeding on that pavement."
"And I will never, ever rest. I actually have to say that I am devastated my husband and I. We're only a couple years away from retirement. I've worked my whole life so hard. All I wanted to do was just enjoy our children. Just wanted to enjoy my Sheridan."

In 2013, NBA player Brian Scalabrine, who averaged just 3 points per game over his career, responded to critics by challenging four volunteers who claimed they could beat him 1-on-1. In a public matchup, he dominated all four games, finishing with a combined score of 44ā6.
The event became known as the āScallengeā and is still remembered as one of the clearest examples of the massive gap between professional athletes and even highly skilled amateur players. By 2013, Brian Scalabrine had already retired from the NBA and was often the subject of jokes due to his limited playing time, with many pointing to his 3.1 points-per-game average as proof he wasnāt far above elite recreational players.
Scalabrine decided to challenge that perception directly. After hearing local players claim they could beat him one-on-one, he organized games against several strong amateur volunteers. The results were decisiveāhe won every matchup, finishing with a combined score of 44ā6, showing that even post-retirement he was operating at a completely different level of speed, strength, skill, and basketball IQ.
The event produced one of the most famous quotes in sports, which remains unchanged:
āIām closer to LeBron than you are to me.ā
The line wasnāt arrogance, but a reality check about the skill gap between NBA players and everyone else. The Scallenge has since become a go-to reference whenever fans underestimate professional-level ability. Scalabrineās career also included 11 NBA seasons and an NBA championship with the Boston Celtics in 2008, along with over 500 games playedāan achievement reached by only a tiny fraction of players worldwide.

The Japanese show respect wherever they visit.
Cleaning the stadium enforces their belief in servant leadership.
Thats Japanese discipline.
āA bird that flies never leaves a trace.ā
Respect where you are, so they respect where you are going.
Beautiful

This is great TV and shows how baseball is a sport of stories and life. It's SO difficult. And what's almost spiritual, Ben McDonald is able to tell his entire, well delivered, thoughtful story uninterrupted. The ball is not put in play during his compelling monologue. And Eduardo Perez and Mike Monaco don't say a word.

CBS News said there was no evidence of fraud.
The NYT said the Somali community was being targeted
CNN said there was "little evidence."
Tim Walz said it was āwhite supremacyā to expose fraud
Today: $90M busted and 15 charged.
IT WAS ALL FRAUD AND THEY KNEW.

. @GavinNewsom and his @GovPressOffice ,
You keep posting here pointing to GDP like it proves success.
It doesnāt.
GDP counts activity, even when that activity is driven by high costs and government spending like California.
Meanwhile, hard working families are getting priced out, taxed and and moved out all while businesses and jobs are leaving.
A big number isnāt the same as a strong outcome. We have all been imperfect in our work performance, but Iād like you to join me in admitting that.
You keep touting Californiaās GDP like itās a report card on governance. It isnāt. Itās a population and price level headline. A giant GDP can coexist with high housing costs, high poverty by cost-adjusted measures, and a weak affordability picture.
I understand you want to run for President and what a great achievement that would be, but like many Presidents and leaders, donāt ignore empirical data aka facts escape you.
You committed to respond to the text with @Benioff you and I once you got back from vacation. Iām happy to sit down to discuss how to bring a business mindset to the forefront in California. It is a beautiful place with fantastic residents.
