    Honest Question: Why do we place a stigma on certain Sins?

    Homosexuals have created groups such as Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, the Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby, and over 100 other organizations that regularly petition Congress and other government institutions; where are the organizations for fornicators and adulterers? Homosexuals...

    Victory: Assault Weapons Ban Not to Be Included in Senate Gun Control Package

    Correct; but say it gets added as an amendment to a bill that provides money for under-privileged kids, or benefits for veterans. That bill then becomes hotly argued because who wants to say no to the kids or vets? Then it becomes a question of whether the amendment can be stricken from the...

    Victory: Assault Weapons Ban Not to Be Included in Senate Gun Control Package

    BTW: This isn't a victory yet. Feinstein's bill could be added as an amendment to other legislation.

    Dying Iraq War vet’s angry message to Bush, Cheney

    My sympathies to the young man--but he presumes too much. He doesn't write on my behalf, nor does he reflect my personal thoughts and views.

    Victory: Assault Weapons Ban Not to Be Included in Senate Gun Control Package

    It means that the constitutional right of the American people to keep and bear arms will not be infringed.

    Historic VS Contemporary Arminianism

    I don't claim to be a "spokesman" for arminianism; and I certainly don't ascribe to the modern form of arminianism/pelagianism promoted by the Methodists and such. If anything, and I've posted this before, the following conversation between a calvinist and an arminian characterizes my arminian...

    Historic VS Contemporary Arminianism

    Incorrect. Not a "way"; just as calvinists believe, it is substitutionary. To say otherwise is to deny scripture: "all our righteousness are as filthy rags"

    Unexpected (unintended?) Costs of Obamacare

    http://miami.cbslocal.com/2013/03/11/obamacare-may-bite-you-at-the-vets-office/ WHY IS THIS "UNEXPECTED" OR A SURPRISE? This is exactly what Joe Schmoe on the street--and on Baptist Board--has been predicting since before Obamacare was passed. My mind is boggled that people are actually...

    Rand Paul 2016

    Same can be said of democrats, can't it?

    Rand Paul 2016

    This is exactly what I was trying to say in another thread. There isn't a single republican or independent that has the name recognition and/or popularity that some democratic potentials have. You ask democrats if they'd vote for Hillary, and you get an unhesitating YES. You ask republicans...

    Eric Holder: Drone strikes against Americans on U.S. soil are legal

    Technically, and I'm no lawyer by a long shot, it would have been legal in 1859, because the laws regarding "due process" weren't the same as they are now. The concepts were there; but there weren't the legal precedents we have now. However, we actually CAN'T separate the concepts of...

    Why he left IFB

    This is where I agree with ABC: a pastor or member of a church who does something wrong and it's swept under the rug; or teaches incorrect things like women have to wear dresses; and the entire group of individuals--i.e., the church--goes along with, condones, and/or even supports the person...

    Why he left IFB

    Now you've described individuals, not churches; would you clarify?

    Eric Holder: Drone strikes against Americans on U.S. soil are legal

    CTB--for clarification, are you saying that using drones in this example (against Americans on American soil without due process of law) is immoral? Or the use of drones, no matter the situation/circumstances, is immoral?

    Honest Question: Why do we place a stigma on certain Sins?

    Nit-picking about words isn't progressing the discussion. A man and a woman who live together without being married used to be called "living in sin"; they lived as if married without being married. As such, their "lifestyle" was sinful. The same can be said of married couples who regularly...
