Masks are more about your sneezes, coughs, and spittle not getting onto others to infect them. AFAIK they don't keep you from getting sick. That's what social distance is about.

Unless it's your mom and dad on the line. Even one death means a hefty wrongful death lawsuit against a nursing home.

Yeah, sorry about that.

4% mortality is high for the elderly. When my mom got COVID it was scary, thank the LORD she got through. Even then for those of us with elderly loved ones in nursing homes, this thing is the grim reaper 4% of the time.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on cable news did say something that got me. At least in the States everyone was caught off guard. The writing was on the wall in December, yet no local, state, federal governments or the hospital corporations in the US were well prepared. Everyone panicked and...

I am including obfuscation or a verbal dodge by changing the subject as a lie. That may be harsh, but in our day to day lives we call that a lie. By that standard Vice President Pence, Vice President Biden, Senator Harris, and President Trump are pants on fire.

I wouldn't look at a big Democratic win in a few weeks as the end of our nation. I see a big Democratic win as just more seesawing in this bipolar epoch we have been in since Bill Clinton became President. Republicans will likely hold the Senate, House, and Presidency all at once in 12 years...

I agree. The fact checkers were going off like crazy on both Vice President Biden and President Trump tonight. Both lied directly to the moderator multiple times. If I had a 20 for every lie, obfuscation, or verbal dodge by changing the subject each party's candidates made this election season...

Oh, thank you, I forgot about 2002.

It is technically. No one can come to power against God's will according to Romans 13.

We'll see. Senate goes by states, most of which are or lean Rep. The House could be a bloodbath against the Reps though, we'll see in a few weeks.

Yes, but given there is a backlash after 2 years for every President, especially starting with Bill Clinton, I would be amazed if the Dems held all three for more than 2 years. IIRC every time a party takes all three since Bill Clinton, the infighting alone dooms the Reps or Dems. Factions...

2 years, the incumbent President's party has always lost seats in the Congress during the midterm.

To the OP, after explaining what I meant by "conservative," is the environment at NOBTS, especially in Orlando, conducive to a fundamentalist with my beliefs?

Thank you. I agree that IFB trains with IFB. My mentors should be people I agree with.

The news wasn't sure if you could even spend that much money on tv ads in battleground states in a month left to the election...

I am sorry if I sounded nuts. I have been in SBC churches where I had to leave on multiple occasions. The role of women as not being able to have anything but a servant (deacon) role caused friction at one church. The argument that sermons are to be for explaining the Word not for lengthy...

I am looking for a seminary to get an MDiv. I have the option of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in Orlando. Problem is I am more independent fundamental Baptist, and I am far more conservative theologically than many Southern Baptist ministers. I am wondering if that will be a problem...

You do make an interesting point. God could make us desire to seek out and find Believers or orchestrate events so that we come in contact with Christian materials at just the right time. I myself show that God could and would do unimaginable things to pursue one soul with my testimony. I...

I interpret that as God is being patient towards giving the saints justice, because He desires salvation for all. I have applied this verse into my tragedy of a life. When prayers for justice go unanswered, I know there is the salvation of my enemies in the balance. I do pray for my enemies...
