    The President lied this morning

    Zaac? No comment about the fact that your statement was shown to be erroneous? Or do you expect us to believe that the president's own staff apparently understood him to say something he wasn't saying?

    Fuzzy math and other nonsense in the classroom ...

    Rote memory is the ABSOLUTE BEST way to teach basic math. 2*2 will always equal 4. I will always do multiplication before addition, unless the addition operand is in parentheses. Fuzzy logic is an extremely high-level concept that identifies that there are two basic states: on and off...

    Church only wants White Greeters

    Again, specificity of language. I'm not implying anything. Your lack of specific language leads to implications that are inferred as people attempt to understand your meaning. Incorrect inferences are a direct result of ambiguous language. If you mean THE entire church, then by all means...

    Church only wants White Greeters

    Well, now we have a disconnect that I need you to explain further. You see, you didn't specify which part of the church she's representing. You said, "THE" church. The implication is the entire church. Second, you state that "if" you're living in accordance with the word of God, YOU'RE...

    Please note my suggested correction to the statement.

    Please note that I was responding to CTB, not Scarlett.

    Church only wants White Greeters

    So everything you do or say is representative of THE church as a whole?

    Fuzzy math and other nonsense in the classroom ...

    Perhaps in theoretical physics, which is where I first learned of "Fuzzy Math" back around 1999...but it has no place in business or "every day" math.

    ALERT: Syrian Chemical Weapons Found In Walmarts All Across America.

    The problem here is the truth of the matter. If we admit that our president made a "line in the sand" and then was surprised because someone he doesn't really understand crossed that line...and now, with Britain backing away from the conflict...we have to determine that there is a real...

    What's wrong with how we view pastors?

    If I may add - - pastors are merely human, and prone to the snares of pride. Wasn't there something in the book of Kings about an old pastor being the cause of a young pastor's demise?

    What's wrong with how we view pastors?

    Consider the military commander: the good ones visit their troops who are hospitalized; they ensure the ones who are having problems making ends meet are at least offered methods of assistance; they ensure the spouses and families of deployed members are being looked after; they respond to the...

    Are you producing False Converts?

    I believe you've taken the quote out of context, and thus inadvertently misrepresented the position. It wasn't: It was: The people who "never hear" are the infants and the mentally ill; the ones who may hear, but cannot understand. The way I read the quote was: A person who never hears...

    WHO should Pastor's Allow to Speak to their Congregations?

    But Zaac, the typical Church of Christ includes almost the exact same statements. http://www.comstockchurch.net/faith.html "We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin’s penalty...

    WHO should Pastor's Allow to Speak to their Congregations?

    I agree with Zaac on this one. The family has made it very clear that they follow Church of Christ doctrine. What isn't covered in Zaac's post is the church in question. A quick scan of their website reveals "they have something for everyone"; and their ministry pages indicate they're...

    new laptop

    Internet Explorer is slow and laggy, but Chrome and Firefox are not ... possibly there are "add-ons" in IE that are causing it to not work properly. In your Internet Explorer window, at the top right, there's a gear (or some people call it a flower); click on that and you'll get menu options...

    Time Warner and Modems

    Bingo! However, consider how often you've had to call for service on your current rented cable modem. Do some research on the cable modem you're thinking about purchasing; especially looking for reviews on it. See what other people think of it.
