Sorry; "looses" is spelled correctly. Its usage (refer to your definition of "grammar") is incorrect. LOL. We Baptists can find anything to "discuss", can't we?

The question is, why did we have to keep raising the minimum wage? If we had to raise the minimum wage from $3.35 up to $7, why did we have to do that? Because it wasn't considered a livable wage. If we have to raise it from $7 to $15, why? Because it's not a livable wage. Since both...

I don't like it either. On the other side, though: ever thought about what an Afghan prison, run by Afghans, is like? Think Mexico -- but worse. Now consider: the guy was tried as a juvenile, and will be treated as a juvenile--in a system where a police chief has already molested him as a...

What happens if the SS members decide they don't want to take the final exam? What happens if they take the exam and pass? What happens if they fail the exam?

Meh. Almost, schmalmost. "Almost" didn't do Agrippa any good.

Kevin -- when I graduated high school, minimum wage was $3.35/hour. Now it's almost $8. Why aren't minimum wage workers doing better than they were when I graduated high school?

Well then, please explain further, because I took it as Jerome being sympathetic, as we're all trying to be.

Have you considered taking an economics course?

I think you misunderstand Jerome. I believe he's indicating the blogger's posts against Caner and specifically Caner's son are at least partially to blame for this unfortunate incident.

Um...I think you need to re-read Rolf's post (#29). Someone at the mall can run through a crowd with a knife in each hand, and cause the same amount of damage that we've seen from guys in malls with AK-47's.... ...*especially* if they know what to do with the knife, like slashing at...

Pot, kettle.

(Grammar cop) Sterling didn't "loose" anything. Sterling did, however, lose his bid to keep the Clippers. ;)

"Pure foolishness"? You make a blanket statement without knowing the truth of the matter, and when I point out that it's a foolish statement, I'm the one who's being foolish? I ask again: Are you exemplifying the Christ-like behavior that you say is so lacking in the rest of us?

Well...since the only person you know for sure is in my household is me, you must be calling me an unrepentant sinner. Is this you exemplifying "Christ-like" behavior?

I stand truly amazed at what lengths some people will go to in order to condemn the brethren, even after being shown their misapplication of scripture.

YOU don't get to dictate which scriptures you don't like. That's Romans 13, not me. Which, by the way, was written by Paul, an apostle of God, AFTER Christ's work on the cross. Take it up with God. I'm not attempting to "undo a comparison." You're attempting to force one. The only point...

That didn't answer the question. Unless you're saying yes, keep the pedophiles and murderers in your house. Is that what you're saying?

Non-answer.

It's a nice answer, and one that I fully agree with -- until that unrepentent sinner is a pedophile, or a murderer. Then what do we do with them? Still keep them in our house?

The comparison FAILS because you make no distinction between the cause for the sentence of death. If the government (the rulers) are the designated sword-bearers established by God, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrong-doer, then your comparison FAILS because you have yet to show...
