    Ignorance of the voters

    Scientific Survey Finds Voters of All Parties, Ages, and Genders Are Broadly Misinformed – Just Facts This very interesting article begins by contrasting James Madison's view of a well-learned voting populace with a recent quote from Michelle Obama. Madison: "[voters] must arm themselves with...

    Donald Trump is Finished

    I thought antichrist is supposed to have 3 1/2 years of popularity .... Does this prove that Trump isn't antichrist? Is Trump the anti-christ?-- Yes or No.

    Latest Market Drop

    I've mostly given up making predictions. Even if I do my statistical tests they don't seem bear out my conclusions any better than if I did the dart board thing. But you did state a prognostication to which I will refer back-- yes, even if it seems to be proving true.

    Investigation into Pipe Bombs Turns toward Florida as More Trump Critics Are Targeted

    Which do you support? In Ferguson, MO? In Baltimore, MD? Then about the same time, in Dallas, TX?

    Latest Market Drop

    Tell us what the market is going to do the rest of this year. This will be something to refer back to, one way or another, when you hold yourself to be a prognosticator. Either you know what you're talking about or you're just a political hater.

    Latest Market Drop

    I had seen my 401k and mutual fund IRA's go up unprecedented the past 2 years. Now they've lost $15,000 in 3 weeks with this speculation that the democraps are going to grab the House. "Failed economy?" Go back to the loony bin!

    Enigmas and inconsistencies

    If these 'plainly' people are pointed out, then he says "If someone..." declares their position, then what fool would not know he's being attacked personally? Yes, we can tell that by "Thou fool" instead of "You fool." Some posters on these boards say there is nothing more to say "until you...

    Enigmas and inconsistencies

    What are you contending now? That Paul was addressing persons which do not exist? No one actually asked those questions as to how the dead are raised? Plainly he was addressing some who said there is no resurrection. And people today-- believing Christians, for what I can tell-- do who ask...

    Enigmas and inconsistencies

    Posters often quote scripture here and do not give the translation they are posting from, if they even cite the passage. How many others have you tried to crack based on that? And literalist means what it commonly means-- what the words say in English, be it KJV or other. And to such a person it...

    Enigmas and inconsistencies

    It is the translation I always quote from-- the NASB. Where does the KJV come int this? And I'm not writing a research paper, I'm just proposing questions and offering a chance to explain what's difficult for a 'literalist.' I might call you a fool here, but I don't think I will. Alright, so...

    No, I have to go for the option that the scriptures are looser than we would like to think.

    Enigmas and inconsistencies

    But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell [Matthew 5:22]. How...

    Enigmas and inconsistencies

    That may be how it's done on this board3 By doing it that way, then one who says Jesus says remarriage after divorce is adultery, and one who says it may not be under certain circumstances, are both equally right. If it's out-of-bounds to point out to the Mark-preferred guy the Matthew...

    Enigmas and inconsistencies

    I thought the gospels were fair, per se, where the point in question is related in more than one. If not, then in a lot of cases we can just pick one-- such as the divorce and remarriage question. Matthew contains the exception clause for fornication/immorality, but Mark does not. I think the...

    I don't think ALL the Corinthians Paul addressed that way were Pharisees. In fact Pharisees did believe the dead are raised, although there may have not been a consensus among them as to 'How...?'"

    It's you, bud, that needs to learn the English language, as you said, and I paste, "And the word "unclean" does not appear at all in the passage about the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit." I showed it does, and I did not say the word applied to a spirit and to food are the same concept. If you...

    For the record, the word "unclean" does appear in this incident in Mark 3:29-30. So was Peter being steered toward something unclean?
