The word is used in business news and in the seriousness of world affairs where different ethnic groups want the same land or resources, or different political parties want the same offices, sports teams want the chance to smear other teams they despise, et al, et al. In normal conversation...

That is not the 'complaint' put forth in this thread. Rather is was about the honesty of the big prologue preferring to preach about 'any other subject.' And perhaps more so, making a bold speech that nobody gets "scared into being saved." The next time I hear those things, if I get the chance I...

Sorry, but the LORD does not change! BTW why are you sorry he does not change?

A young dog wearing a fluorescent ribbon his tail to see where he goes in the dark.

Yes, I really thing everybody's a hypocrite, except babies and the brain-dead.

Maybe that pastor would have been satisfied if you had thought to say, "As a new Christian, I covet your prayers." But that's not teenage language, and you might have gotten your commandments mixed up and said "I want to steal your prayers." But your experience can make one wonder why, when you...

My original title was too long for the space, and the new one may be more accurate anyway; at least it's more inclusive. But some things that are often said from a pulpit or podium by preachers or conference speakers do extend to some of our common conversations. For me, one would be times one...

Have you seen someone with a missing arm or leg grow another one?

I most definitely stand by my claim that The Twilight Zone-- in particular the episode that was discussed here-- is more in line with your views that mine by your quote here: "There is life or there is not life out there. Personally, I think there is and hope there is. A lot of this type of...

Alright, if he doesn't change and he was once a baby in a manger, then he is eternally a baby in a manger. Correct?

And what kind of connection to you have to the TZ, considering that the episode referenced herein is more in line with your beliefs and hopes than it is mine?

Are you looking for a cheap man?

The episode was entitled, "To Serve Man." If I recall correctly, a very illogical thing is shown by deciphering the aliens' language of that book is somehow obtained. Even if they could discover the meaning of the book title is "To Serve Man," it's a huge presumption to think the play on words...

Yes, I'm sure they really want to serve man. I can't tell if you knew that's what I was referring to, or if you think I just said that inadvertantly.

They should be drug out of their offices.

Yes, I'm sure they really want to serve man.

No, I have to say they don't raise the probability. When confirmation came in the 90's of the existence of extrasolar planets, I don't think anyone was shocked by it. But, expectedly, it did get the hordes of people who want ET's to exist all excited. But the probability of life depends on so...

That must mean the world, and every event that takes place therein, was never a new thought of God, so we and absolutely everything we do never had an origin in the thoughts of God... which is equivalent to God never having a choice about us. It is, perhaps, the mental illustration of "If God...

That statement is at least as unsupportable as your previous one-- of which you did not give any numbers for your probability. And I am quite aware of the methods of detecting planets. Another "likely" with no support to supply that >0.5 probability. That we accept without empirical proof...

Jerusalem as Babylon...? What is this? casting for a new drama? Okay, then how about Moscow as London? Boston as Atlanta? Dallas as Rome?...
