I know nothing about that poll, but in my opinion, with a large enough base, an internet poll would be the most accurate. It has the largest demographic, and the largest total to pull from. It also reaches the most diverse people. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

My information is old, so this may have changed. But I was taught that the legal definition of conviction is something you were willing to die for, otherwise, it was a preference. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

I didn't see this until just now, so my apologies for the delay in answering. No, I am not being dishonest, especially since I do not hide the fact that I believe what I believe. I have discussed it with assistant pastors and they know my stance, and they know that I comply with their stricter...

And that is a point that we can agree to disagree on amiably. In that area, I hold no ill-will to someone who thinks differently than I do. I don't look at it as weaker/stronger. Just different opinions. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

My wife and I discussed it, and she came up with a good point. The other runner was ahead until the dive. She was the faster runner, which is what the event was all about. That dive to win proved that the she knew she wasn't as fast as the other runner, and had to resort to (imo) an underhanded...

Our church only allows preachers and teachers to use the KJV. But we have children and visitors who bring in others. I can't speak to the membership, because I've never noticed. Personally, at church I don't use the KJV. I use a Spanish translation. It helps me with my Spanish, and with my...

I haven't seen anyone "whining". You think it's a problem, I don't. You quote Ellen White, I trust God. I get it. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

Honestly? Because the preaching is solid, I am happy here, and I can get involved and be a part of the church, as much as my mental condition allows. This is an IFB, but we have visitors who wear clothing deemed inappropriate, and they are never chided. It is a KJVO church (not Ruckman-type...

Brother, I think you're talking more about preferences where I'm speaking more of standards. With the dress standard, my wife wears pants. But our church believes that biblically a woman should not wear pants. So, my wife doesn't wear pants on the church grounds or at church functions. We...

Whatever the percentages, my point still stands. Even if they are .01% the same, we still don't say that Chimpanzees are human/ape hybrids. That's not what I said they could not do. I said they could not make an animal that is part man. In other words, they can make organs and tissues that are...

The thing is, Salty, who's to say it it's biblical? I say it's biblically ok for women to wear pants. My church says biblically it's not. Obviously, it someone holds the standard, they believe it's biblical. Paul says to not cause the weaker brother to offend his conscience. To me, its pretty...

IMO, it is ok to compromise to a higher standard, but never to a lower. For example, I compromise and only listen to traditional music at my church, although I listen to contemporary. It would wrong for me to try to get someone of the strictest standard to compromise to listen to my music. The...

The way I see it, God is in control. Man cannot create an animal that is part man. Not really. After all, humans and chimps share 98% of the same DNA, but we don't consider them 98% human. The only way that this is a threat to the natural order of things is if one believes wholeheartedly in...

Salty, having recently been around the caliber of soldier we have due to the great push for enlistments during the wars, I'd have to say tis would be a bad idea today. At the end of the war, our company had an entire platoon of guys that were getting chaptered out due to misconduct. Most of the...

I've seen all of TNG and DS9. Liked them both. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

I understand your feeling perfectly. About 3-4 months after I got out of the Army, I was working in a factory. I began to go into a severe PTSD episode where I couldn't tell what was real (I thought some co-workers were Taliban). My intellect knew that something wasn't right, but my mind kept...

Brother, I am not a mental health professional, but can sympathize and empathize with your situation. I am medically retired with a diagnosis of PTSD. So please understand that what I am about to say, I say without judgment or malice. It seems to me, Brother, that you're mindset is wrong. Not...

So, what you're saying is, Trump has a 97% success rate. Thank you for helping his case. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

It's amazing to me. If you don't want something torn down, don't bring it to a fight. For instance, of you get mad at "yo mama" jokes, don't use one. Anyone who brings something to the political arena has no grounds to stand on when that thing is then ridiculed. And I'm saying this as someone...

In Kansas, we had later services for the opposite reasons. We had to leave time Sunday afternoon for farmers to tend to cattle. I have great respect for any missionary, but especially those in countries who aren't any brand of Christian, and who have to master a foreign language. Sent from my...
