To be fair, CBC is Assemblies of God

……wth

Absolutely they should. There are already dorms, classrooms, etc. You could have people help take care of the property in exchange for living there to make the "gotta earn it" folks happy. There's already a huge homeless camp just down the road from there so what's the difference giving them better shelter and opportunities?

Every comment and reply in this thread is the most Springfield thing I’ve ever read.

Springfield. Where we have to clearly delineate our Baptist Colleges.

Pipedream for sure, but I wish the city or some non-profit would buy that land and use it for shelters, self-improvement programs for at-risk individuals, community lecture space, etc. Or at least a more interesting cult.

Oldfield meat processing up on hwy125, north of Bradleyville. They'll get you taken care of.

pics are from 2015-2016 and its funny cause one of the guys up there sexually harassed me and others 🥰

that place is trash inside and out. leadership, students, and the campus. all trash

There's so much awful history at that school. Went there for 2.5 years. The buildings look awful because the leaders believed that the rapture would happen before 2000 so the buildings weren't designed to last much longer.

There was an enormous falling out in 2001 that gutted a huge % of the student population that it just never really recovered.

So many stories...

It's too bad the city and the assemblies of God can't come together and make a massive homeless shelter, children's center, food service, hair care, showers, rehabilitation Center for the unhoused.

Welp, reasonable chance we met then.

It’s almost all Kraft cheese storage

It should be repurposed to house the unsheltered. Then at least it could be used for good.

There are definitely Korean people there. I can’t really figure out what’s going on.

Just to clarify... Are you siding with Ann Kelley on this?

If you think he's wrong for referencing Martha Washington because "marriage has nothing to do with sexual orientation," then I gotta say- you have a very unpopular opinion. Like - I GUESS it technically doesn't have to reflect your orientation, but the VAST majority of people would prefer to be married to someone that they are sexually attracted to.

There is a reason why people all throughout history would frequently try to hide their homosexuality by getting heterosexual marriages - BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE TO MARRY THE PEOPLE THEY WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH.

If it had nothing to do with sexual orientation, then it wouldn't be a very effective way of pretending your not gay, would it?

I feel like y'all have the right thing in mind, but aren't thinking about a flexible system. If a tram were functioning in a predictable pattern, folk could get to stations in order to move 20 mins down the street. Just because the current locations for transit don't make sense, due to folks in charge, that's not a reason to completely deny public transit.

For me to use mass transit it’s going to have to be faster than driving, cheaper than driving, and more convenient than driving. I think I have a plan to make a system that’s all three of those things. We’ll build a light-duty overhead monorail style track system that special light electric cars hook to from ground level and there will be entrance and exit points all over town. You just drive down Glenstone until you get to the Barataria entrance point, merge into the entrance lane, and seamlessly hook onto the system, and the motorized hook on the top of your car powers you down the track at 60mph. Each entrance only has one exit, and the Barataria entrance exits on Chestnut near Drury. It’s like teleportation portals.

The cars would be inexpensive and electric, designed for cross-town trips, and very small.

Thank you

It's a mix of color by numbers and bedazzling, for lack of a better word, where you apply hundreds of rhinestones on a color coded canvas.

I'm bout this! If we could sample whatever TF is down there. Geezus, that roulette could drive tourism...

That crowd also went apeshit for the MATLOCK EXPRESSWAY
