To really rate them over all is a complex undertaking I am not willing to do. So to make a somewhat educated guess about particulars, I would just try it for a few qualities or accomplishments. International relations... Nixon and Reagan. Judicial appointments... George W. Bush...

If it's unconstitutional to vote based on wanting sharia law, just how to you propose to go about ending such criteria?

Yeah? Why is God that illogical? Why did he 'give' it to us in the first place? And then if it is given 'back to Him for service and use,' should whoever receives (what) of it "give it back?" By this stupid system, nothing would ever be done. Only Adam and Eve, before the fall, had any chance of...

Anyone can hold an office in the USA; certainly can run for elective office and be elected. But who an individual voter chooses can be based on any criteria that voter selects. It can't be any clearer than that.

Yes or No: Do you give your entire "increase" 'to the Lord?'

If under the inferior covenant he commanded us to put murderers to death, how can we refuse to do at LEAST that instead of also executing pickpockets, forgerers, coveters, ...?

As you have contended scripture does not teach a concept like "proportional giving," where does it teach this idea that "We're to give of our time, our talents, our personality?"

So remember-- next time you pillage a region, kill the people and take the spoils, look up the local priest and give him a tithe. That all 'predated the law,' so it must be a part of grace.

You seldom have to wait long for Malachi 3 to be brought up in this topic. And it's seldom that I don't say something like this .... That passage has an action and reaction, which most supporters claim is a financial blessing to be received if one tithes. Yet it also quotes God, who says to test...

Then how do we have any script of it? Did he Xerox it before he threw it in the ark?

Well, thanks for the option. I choose "not." What did you DO, anyway, as you perceived whatever this was? Stop and stare? Keep moving? Get out your BB gun? Take photos? What were your frames of reference to make your estimates about it distance and speed?

Just a few weeks ago this 'public accomodation' angle was put before me unexpectedly when I went with our informal group that goes to eat on Sunday after church. 2 or 3 in the group mentioned something about it and got out their church bulletins, and I quickly concluded there was discount for...

Why Does God Save Us When He Knows We Will "Blow It" At Times? A self-answered question, IMO.

This crazy UFO phenomenon is a farce. There is NO evidence whatsoever that is compelling to conclude we have ever been visited by space/other world travelers. All these 'observers' who see lights in the sky and want immediately to report flying saucers, extraterrestrials, visitors ... where...

Then answer my question, bud: Did Moses write "So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD"?

If you're at work, don't say to anyone "Hi, hope you're having a nice day" or anything similar, because if your job description doesn't include that you will burrrrn forever!

Did Moses write "So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD"?

There was a man in Fort Worth approx. 3 years ago for whom prison was not a deterrent to his murder when he was killed by escaped convicts from Huntsville. That only puts the deterrent angle completely beside the point. If neither the death penalty nor prison for life is a deterrent, that...

And there is no separation of church & state there either. Are you going to spend eternity picketing the throne demanding it?
