    Historic Riverside Church recommends first woman as senior minister

    #2 is enough to discount the remainder!!!!:tear::tear: While other points may SOUND plausible, knowing the result of believing something in direct contrast with Jesus statement ("No man cometh to the Father---") the other points are rendered impotent!!

    GOP Starts War on Kids, Fruit and Vegetables

    Been wondering the same thing!!! Probably like those pesky gnats that swarm around you in the summer; try your best to ignore, but occasionally you just HAVE TO SWAT - even though the relief is disgustingly temporary.:tear: Been suckered in myself sometimes knowing that it's futile 'cause...

    Doves and Serpents

    ZAAC: Absolutely correct Zaac; don't know how we unlearned peasants have survived thus far without people like you who know what God really meant when He spoke. We commoners just have to accept what He said at face value. :tear: Again, thank you!!!! :thumbsup:

    Why Does The USDA Need These .40 cal Weapons

    This is just that "NATIONAL POLICE FORCE" the ZERO alluded to that was "needed" by the gov't; since apparently it was gonna take too long for the conversion of the military for this role. Next on the agenda will probably be the Dept. Of Edu.??!! :thumbs:

    Why Does The USDA Need These .40 cal Weapons

    Crabby, 'pears as how you've been spending too much time sniffing your arm pits. At least that would explain your "rabbit trail" posting in this thread! :BangHead:

    Does Distant Starlight Prove the Universe Is Old?

    Sapper Woody:"(why that's in quotations is because I don't believe either creation or evolutionary theory can be proven, a discussion for another day)" My belief exactly! Same evidence, so it just depends on whether you believe God, or science(?)!! And if you choose to trust science...

    If a man's wife was .....

    Amen!! It seemed to me that the baptists of yore looked at divorce in precisely that light! :BangHead: Incidentally, I'm not divorced, nor is my wife, neither are any of my offspring and only one of my close friends is, so my perception is not colored by this problem touching my life in any...

    Family friendly search engines

    Not up-to-snuff on this stuff, but I use https://startpage.com and have been pretty well satisfied, & IIRC, you can set the filters to the strictness level you want. If this does not answer the question you have, just ignore & good luck. :thumbs:

    I know I should curse at my cursor

    Happens to me all the time. Are you using one of these "self-correcting" ;$&@/)@:;;-$$) iPads? It takes me forever to prepare a small post simply because I have to spend so much time checking for goofs like you describe, words that it thinks are better than my choice, and continuously...

    A Theistic Evolutionist is Taken to Task

    The very basic bottom line. There are many things not specified in scripture, leaving one to "theorize" about those topics, BUT, those things that are specified are, well, specified, and I would be very, VERY cautious about saying that God meant something other than what He actually said...

    J Vernon McGee (discussion and favorite sermons)

    Always loved to hear him. IMHO, he had a terrible radio voice, but after listening to him for 5 minutes or less, the message totally over-rode my objection to his voice. Love his bible commentary as well! Got it on computer and bookshelf.

    Taking God at His Word by Kevin DeYoung - GET IT

    Just downloaded a sample on Kindle. This is one of my most profound beliefs, that we should simply take what God says just as He says it ; unless context and/or specific instructions are given to the contrary. Sure does make understanding His word a lot simpler.

    Mother-in-law situation

    I strongly suspect that many here are like me, in that it is sometimes very hard to SHUT UP, and stay out of your adult kid's affairs. Caveat: you are asked your opinion and/or you see a very dangerous situation that they are unaware of. That being said, I have occasionally spouted off when I...

    Bumper stickers and voting

    Now this is the under-statement of the year. :thumbs: But even worse, is that after he has shown what he is, so many STILL think he is a messiah!!!:tonofbricks:

    American Public Turns Anti-War …

    Is it positive or negative when you get sliced in the belly??? Well, it depends on whether it's a surgeon going after a ruptured appendix, OR, a hoodlum trying to steal your money!! If Japan had been a little more aggressive in '41, it's very possible that we would all be speaking Japanese...

    NBA Legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on Donald Sterling

    Anything to keep Bengahzi, IRS, Fast & Furious etc, etc, etc, off the front pages------------!! And like good obedient sheeple, what ever MSM wants, MSM gets. After all, they wouldn't lead us astray would they??? ------Well, would they??:BangHead::BangHead::BangHead:

    Hello Everybody, I'm Jack Hectorman

    Welcome Jack, have enjoyed your posts on RO. Would like to say that I agree to your idea of a non-debate forum as you presented there, so maybe it would work here though there are some that, as you noted, would push the limits. But anyway, different pasture, so maybe different plants would...

    Bundy and Sterling - How Deep Does this Go?

    Poncho, it's really eerie how much I agree with you in this post. All I can say is this post is a SLAM DUNK, OUT OF THE PARK HOMER, DEAD ON!! Ignore all the Feds chopping away at our freedoms, let's make sure Bundy is SHUT DOWN FOR GOOD, and all we got to do is claim he's RACIST!!!!! Hey...
