    Rapture in 70 AD

    If all prophecy has already been fulfilled, then is there no judgment for anyone alive today, or anyone who has been alive since the Roman destruction of Jerusalem? And how are the words of Jesus true that, concerning the temple, "not one stone will be left on top of another," when part of a...

    Churches changing bylaws after gay marriage ruling

    If a florist or others who are engaged to do a service for weddings must violate their own beliefs by serving weddings against those beliefs, then how does a delicatessen have a right to be kosher and tell anyone who comes there for a ham sandwich they have to go elsewhere because of the owner's...

    Churches changing bylaws after gay marriage ruling

    Right now, there is actually no need for doing this. Just as a church cannot be forced to marry a divorcee, it cannot be forced to marry a same-sex couple. But it's not now that's the problem. It's years from now, decades from now... In the 70's, you may recall the attempts to ratify the Equal...

    WWII veteran beaten to death by two teens.

    Police haven't found them yet, it says. Well, maybe if this were a "hate crime" they would be working harder. But a hate crime is wearing an Obama mask at a rodeo, not teenage punks beating an 88-year-old man to death.

    America 'More Racist' Since Obama Became President;...

    I doubt if he would have been convicted of anything either. The more of a media circus is made of a criminal trial, the less likely the accused is convicted. O.J. Simpson and Casey Anthony immediately come to mind. But are you claiming Obama didn't mean anything "racial" when he was speaking to...

    America 'More Racist' Since Obama Became President;...

    With the Zimmerman killing of Trayvon Martin, Obama thought he had to make a speech which included "Trayvon could have been my son." With this Oklahoma killing, of which there is much less question of it being a murder, is he going to say the 2 black teens (a third involved was white) could have...

    Does America ignore the rest of the world?

    Does America ignore the rest of the world? No. But how many billions would we save if we did?

    Former aide: Obama played cards during bin Laden raid

    We got our revenge against bin Laden. If Obama won the credit-grabbing rights in a card game...big deal.

    Fair bans clown who wore Obama mask

    Boy, if this rodeo is as political as you claim, they'd have cowboys on elephants roping jackasses.

    Pastor Insults Congregation

    I got tired of watching that and stopped it before the end. But does anyone know if that's staged or not? If it ain't, I'd like to be where that guy's "preaching," and look like I'm sleeping, hoping he calls me on it, because I'd stand up and roar back at him to see if he really wants to take...

    Christian Extremists Get Lost at Sea

    How big a part of "the problem" is Jesus, who ascended to heaven rather than stay on this world in body?

    Does being opposed to government intervention mean you hate the poor?

    Where is any consistency in the philosophy of government involvement? "Separation of church and state" is defended by saying religion thrives when government 'leaves it alone' and takes no position for or against any religion. If that's true, and aiding those in need is a 'religious' endeavor--...

    Heretics

    [/SIZE] If these people are "very religious," what do they base their beliefs on, if they are the one(s) "which knows no dogma and no God conceived in man's image?" And if the god they reject is made in man's image, then (supposing they believe in a god), what is their god?-- one made in their...

    Aren't Armstrong WW Church of God about same as the SDA?

    Alright... something goes wrong-- such as predicting a date for the end of the age [world] which does not take place-- what do you do? If it was just fraudulent anyway, the perpetrator takes what money or other benefits he can reap, or has reaped, and goes on to other things, better or...

    There are no foreign lands

    How can we sing the Lord’s song In a foreign land? [Psalm 37:4] No way at all, apparently, since there is no such thing as a foreign land. But God spoke to this effect, that his descendants would be aliens in a foreign land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years...

    Aren't Armstrong WW Church of God about same as the SDA?

    They are comparable in many ways... sabbath keeping [setting aside the first day of the week as a day of worship is the "mark of the beast"], clean and unclean [food] regulations, "soul sleep" and no damnation of unbelievers [rather annihilation of the soul or eternal death]. One thing to make...

    Judging Others

    “Judging others makes us blind, whereas love is illuminating. By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are.” ― Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship [from OP] Alright, so be it. In that Matthew 24 judgment...

    Dem senator: Right to keep and bear arms is 'not a god-given right'

    I think keeping and bearing arms is a God-given right. Nobody else gave me the arms I was born with and nobody has the right to chop them off. And, like the rest of me, they came out bare.
