Let me see if I understand the discussion at this point: Luke: "I've had some experience with some bad fundamentalists,and I read an article by a relative of John R. Rice." John of Japan: "I grew up with the author of the article, and have read his book from which the article is based."...

As geeky as I am -- I can't think of a single tech toy for Christmas. I eventually want to replace my Galaxy S3 with a Galaxy Note, but that's for "Christmas in July"....

My apologies; I didn't go through the rest of the thread before I responded to a particular post. The answer you seek from me is this: as Rippon mentioned, we can perform good works out of a sense of duty, rather than out of love. Just as we can grudgingly give an offering, rather than out of...

So your answer is yes, you would?

You don't have to love them to do all that....

So they did the cosmetic surgery, but didn't treat the internal injuries? And they call it "fixed"?

Wonder how far the conversation would go if we were talking about roads, or other government-provided "utilities"....

AMEN. Any pastor, missionary, preacher, etc. that allows their bias to influence their preaching is wrong. That also includes posting messages we believe are meant for good. And with that, I have nothing more to say.

Is it limited to fundamentalists? Or can "liberals" be "narrow-minded"?

Is that limited to fundamentalists?

Your property taxes are $14,400 a year?!? I've never heard of property taxes that high!

Is it possible that youthful rebellion might have play in the explanation?

But your conclusion is mistaken. People here aren't saying they're more important than the country; they're pointing out an anti-scriptural principle. Just as you yourself have argued against legalistic tithing, now we have a government that's mandating legalistic giving to support others...

CTB -- question: your only argument these days is putting the needs of the nation before the needs of self. The majority on this board have come out against the ACA; yet you continue to argue against the will of the majority. Why are you placing your own desires above those of the majority?

CTB -- what is the average take-home pay of the people in the country where you are/were as opposed to average take-home pay of Americans? What's the average weekly grocery cost of a family of four in that country as opposed to America? What's the percentage of families on government-assistance...

"More people will have insurance." EXACTLY. Not necessarily healthcare; as CTB has found, the insurance company will still control what they will pay for, and you, me, and everyone else will still be responsible for paying what the insurance company decides is "beyond necessary" care -- and with...

RD, that post was wrong, and ignored certain facts. We all knew he was a bully who liked to carry a gun. What we don't know, and may never know, is whether he was legally justified in defending himself--but a jury said he was. What you're citing above is proof that he's a bully who likes...

If you look closely enough, there still is in Mississippi....

Seriously? How many times did I offer you links that show MA officials are stating that Romneycare is increasingly taking funds away from other state government programs, only to have you disappear and ignore those facts? You believe only what you want to believe, don't you?

Regarding a GQ magazine list; careful with the following; there are some borderline comments regarding Anthony Weiner.... http://www.examiner.com/article/gq-least-influential-list-dennis-rodman-barack-obama-make-the-list Ouch.
