    New Years Resolutions

    Perhaps a good one for some on this board is MUCH LESS time on this board.... I don't do resolutions.

    What Will/Should Become of the #NeverTrumpers

    You do realize this post, and thus thread, is on the same level as the "Who Did I Vote For?" thread I started a month or so back? Any particular reason why you're so binary?

    Review of "Hell's Best Kept Secret"

    He said he has 9 books on both sides of the subject. That means some are in support, some are against. Then he named some authors that he suggest YOU read: Martuneac, Hodges, Ryrie, and Pickering. If you're not familiar with their works, then JoJ has studied the subject much more in-depth than...

    NYT: Charlie Sykes on Where the Right Went Wrong

    Rev - you may have the wrong thread. Or else, you need to enlighten us as to where Charlie Sykes, a white middle-aged male, is "white bashing." --- edited to add: Okay, I think I see what you mean, starting with Follow The Way's post....disregard my post.

    Review of "Hell's Best Kept Secret"

    Pardon my stupidity--how does Luke 11:9-13 support a private use of tongues?

    Review of "Hell's Best Kept Secret"

    By that logic, I hereby nominate Peter Ruckman as our new #1 author; let's go out and get all of his books! John (Evangelist) -- evangelism *MUST* necessary follow (be based on) theology. Without the underlying foundation, then what are we spreading? If Comfort's theology is in question, then...

    Review of "Hell's Best Kept Secret"

    You spent many posts telling people to read the book; JoJ did, and also took the time to use critical thinking skills to examine it. When he did what you spent so many posts telling people to do, you respond with "I believe what I believe." For someone who supposedly puts so much stock in books...

    Review of "Hell's Best Kept Secret"

    And how would that change what JoJ has critiqued about one of your favorite books? Either JoJ's right, or he's wrong. If he's wrong, then show his errors. If he's right, then be intellectually honest and change your thinking.

    NCO (PO) / Officers Clubs

    Gentlemen, it's been happening for over 10 years. Vance AFB in Oklahoma instituted one in 2002; and I believe McConnell in Wichita instituted theirs around 1998, during the base's reconstruction after an F5 tornado.

    China will test Trump

    China just stole one of our underwater drones. One Asia analyst identifies this as an act of war. Before we worry about China testing Trump, why don't you comment about China testing Obama?

    Can, or should the Electoral College stop Trump from being President?

    In the state of Illinois, the population density of Chicago and its suburbs far outweighs basically the rest of the state. Chicago is primarily democrat; so Illinois elections, as a generality, tend to favor democrats. The "voice" of the rest of the state is left unheard; and thus, issues that...

    TOTALLY Disgusting ... my old church comes out of the closet!

    Leave them off. Not because you're afraid anyone reviewing your resume would get the wrong idea; I don't think you're "afraid" of much. Leave 'em off because you dis-associate with them. If the resume is for another church, and they ask about the gap in the work history, tell 'em the truth. If...

    Made an attempt to reconcile

    Stefan, please forgive me, but there's a specific reason I'm pushing this. Your definition of success is perfect. I would submit that reconciliation isn't the total measure of success; continual reconciliation takes continual work.... Your definition of failure, however, is still ambiguous...

    Pray for us

    Because Comfort later retracted the video upon learning that the banana is a result of artificial selection by humans, and that the wild banana is not like our domesticated product. Agree with Iconoclast. Comfort may have problem areas, but he's active in pointing people to the Lord.

    Pray for us

    Comfort did a video some years back about how the banana proved intelligent design.

    Made an attempt to reconcile

    Except, in this case, you need to define "failure." Is that one attempt? Trying to call, but she never answers? Asking her out to dinner, but she says no? Sending an email that she never responds to? Define "success," as well as "failure." For me, success would be praying every day about it...

    TRUMP: I'm a 'smart person,' don't need intelligence briefings every single day

    You know as well as any of the other prior military people here: Not every single change gets briefed to POTUS. Only the things that are deemed as "POTUS level."

    TRUMP: I'm a 'smart person,' don't need intelligence briefings every single day

    While in Afghanistan, one of the things we had to do was a weekly briefing to our level general about the status of our areas. We'd list four or five things that were of "general officer" interest. S1 would do their bit; then S2; then S3; etc. If there were no changes, we'd put "NTR" (nothing to...

    TRUMP: I'm a 'smart person,' don't need intelligence briefings every single day

    I don't think it's hypocritical. He criticized Obama for requiring daily briefings, but not reading them or paying attention to them. Now he's saying that he's learned from Obama not paying attention to required daily briefings, and he's not going to require daily briefings. I don't see the...

    Seeking advice

    I'm not trying to justify your job; along with Hank, my response is to pray. But do consider something: Nehemiah took the king his wine (Nehemiah 2:1). Be a good servant where you are, until God releases you to something else.
