Yes or No: Should Christian principles-- that is, the Bible, the New Testament and the Old Testament as seen through the New-- be used to govern our nation, states, and localities?

I stand corrected. Do you think it is true that Ty Cobb sharpened his spikes? The only reason I would doubt if he did is because I'm not sure if it was really necessary. Coming into a base "with your steel showing" often could get the edge looked for, sharpened or not. And does anyone doubt...

If a good tree produces good fruit, and the Tree of Knowledge produced bad results, thus was bad fruit, and thus was a bad tree, perhaps the Garden of Eden was overrated as far as anything good?

On one hand, I'm inclined to call him Bill Bellyache. On the other, I really don't know if I would be different in that position. Long in the past when I showed poor sportsmanship, I used to say, "Should Jesus be a good sport with the devil?" But sports are only simulations of things really...

I can't recall this topic being discussed on this board before. But I've just been doing a little research of personal interest about the history of the superhero idea-- folklore, comics, novels, motion pictures...and scripture. Other than the basics to define the genre, I'm sure we don't need...

Yes. Toes, too, maybe. The legacy of sin includes finger-pointing [guilt transferral]. God blamed Adam, Adam blamed Eve, Eve blamed the serpent... and the serpent didn't have a leg to stand on.

I've told about my approaches to solicitors before, but yesterday I used a new one, rather nonsensical, off the top of my head. I answered the phone, it sounded like a teenage girl who said, "My name's ___; are you having any foundation problems?" I hesitated, then said, "Only with phone...

I believe in evolution in that sense. Both football and soccer [American teminology] had the same ancestors, but one branch split from the other and passed on its advantages; which did not mean the game more like the 'originial' died out-- to the contrary, it thrived and dominated in most of the...

We are having a class party, as usual; our class for single adults 30's through 50's. I would expect it to be 'as usual' also in being a crowded event which some do not stay long for, and there may be more, especially the women, who seem to be more interested in the commericals and the halftime...

I think it's a poorly defined term of no value. It implies one must preach against one's will, when it is only by one's will that one can and does preach.

2 Bibles? Is each supposed to cover breaking the oath on the other, or what?

Well, if Mike Brady could get that title on The Brady Bunch, maybe it fits that Slick Willie can, too.

Perhaps it's acceptable to present a contrast. I've tried to think of clever ways before to compare Jesus with Santa Claus and here are a few: Santa Claus leaves us with his presence...Jesus never leaves us without his presence. Santa Claus rides a fleeting sleigh without death... Jesus...

Jesus, Peter, John, and Paul were not "law-abiding." Neither will I be in any attempt at theft of my guns.

What does Target selling Pillsbury biscuits have to do wit this?

Do you keep and bear arms? Certainly. Although not usually on these winter days; that can make the hairs thereupon stand on end.

Liquid Church? I suppose they have "holy water?"

Well, why not? Obama's healthcare will take of everybody. Won't it?

Following her concussion? I didn't even know she played the drums.

Trigger Lock = the gate latch for the pen where Roy Rogers kept his horse?
