    The ACLU: Enemy of America and Christianity

    So very true, and this habit precludes any rational discussion of actual issues. I'm as guilty as most re: this, but, many a time I've typed a response, read it, and had the HS very quietly say to me, "What do you really think this will acomplish?" Needless to say, I then employ that small "X"...

    Is God's love unconditional?

    God's love IS unconditional! If you think it is conditional, what are the conditions? Don't confuse LOVE with ACCEPTANCE. We become ACCEPTABLE to Him thru the blood of Christ. He loves us whether saved or not, BUT, and a big BUT, for the believer, His love is coupled with MERCY; for the...

    Bill Clinton ~~ what a guy!

    Well stated HOG! What's right is right, regardless of the party in charge. However, and this is the biggie, misuse of powers should be SEVERLY PUNISHED, again regardless of which party is in charge. (Meanwhile I'm watching the sky for porcine aviators!)

    Above the Law...

    Kinda like liberals in general, eh!!?? I must admit that I've rarely seen/heard/read any poster that can use so many words to say nothing! (But he says it real nice!) Edited to correct above "nothing" Should read --"use so many words to say so little!"

    Senators Worried About TV 'Train Wreck'

    I bought a plasma TV about 15-18 months ago, so I assume it is capable of the new digital signals. Had the vendor call me several times in last few months wanting me to buy added warrenty, but I told them that if ths one gave up the ghost, I would probably just learn to live without TV. Same...

    Democrats and Abortion

    This sounds like a real sensible rational statement (for about 5 seconds) until you realize what is being said. 1 Nicotine and caffine can IN NO WAY be compared to alcohol and illegal drugs. 2 It's rather stupid to decide if you can't have the whole cake that you refuse a piece of cake. 3 I...

    What year did you graduate?

    '54, when fishtails were the cat's meow on Caddys! And some guys rode around in summer with their windows rolled up to make the folk they passed on the street think they had (---drum roll----) AIR CONDITIONING! Gas was ~ $.30/gal, but milage was ~ 8-10/gal. Had a friend that bought a VW...

    Democrats and Abortion

    (emphasis mine) I would say that you are putting it VERY mildly!

    Democrats and Abortion

    (emphasis mine) Do you mean you favor killing an innocent child, is LESS important to you than executing a convicted killer, rapist, child molester etc.? Surely I am misreading your intent. Please clarify this statement; Thanks! Whew!!!! Pretty dogmatic in your judgements, aren't you? Seems...

    Here they are! How will you vote?

    I have ALMOST decided to just write in my own name simply to be able to say that I DID vote. Hard decision; the lesser of the evils - yuk!!! To answer the OP, I don't know. MARA NATHA!!!!!

    Facing the End of Constitutional Democracy

    Unless you're prepared for another "TEA PARTY", there ain't much the average joe can do re: loss of this country to some form of dictatorship or socialistic or marxist takeover. I've said for the last several years that the only difference in the two parties is the rapidity of ruining the...

    Life After Death And The Atheist Apologist

    One does wonder why someone would exert so much intensity to denying something that "doesn't exist". Mayhaps they are trying more to convince themselves rather than others; then again, misery DOES love company. Sorta' fits old Willy's quote - "Methinks he doeth protest too much!" As I said...

    Democrats and Abortion

    Hm-m-m-m, maybe you ought to get citizenship here, just so you can NOT vote legally!:thumbs: :type:

    Life After Death And The Atheist Apologist

    BINGO!!!! They know deep down that there is "something/someone" far greater than themselves, but to acknowledge such is to indirectly proclaim that "--I must account to this 'something/someone' for my actions on earth; and I WILL not be beholden to any other than myself!" Same reason evolution...

    Another hypocrite

    Scarlett: So true; this brings to mind modern politicians. And one must remember that old cliche' "There, but for the grace of God, go I!", keeping in mind that without His guiding and correction, any one of us could be in that situation, or worse. "Let him who is without sin cast the first...

    Church Borrowing

    If Christians gave to their church as God has given to them, money would be no object when He leads to construction. My wife & I looked at our directory and estimated the income of the church as a whole & what the budget would (could) be IF everyone tithed. Don't remember the exact figures...

    Tammy Faye and her repentance

    tommie, you are responsible for you, and you alone. If you choose to hold a grudge against Jim & Tammie Faye, you are just feeding a cancer of your own making. God didn't say that you had to like what another did/does to you; only that you forgive if asked, and if not asked, forgive anyway...
