    Going Out to Eat After Church

    I have a hunch the group I run with may be just the type servers want to avoid. We are singles, 30's through 50's, there are anywhere from about 6 to 20 or more of us, usually including a couple who have children (or a grandchild or 2 occasionally), but most of the time it's about a dozen, give...

    All Dogs Go to Heaven... Right?

    Don't forget Revelation 22:15 -- "Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the immoral persons and the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying.

    Dick Durbin kills successful public school voucher system

    If you support the idea of churches being 501.c.3 tax exempt entities, then you support that idea for mosques equally having such exemption entitlements. So are you in favor of churches-- including the smallest ones with no staff and a single run-down building-- having to pay taxes, which would...

    Library Books Returned 50 Years Late

    They never said interest would be applied. Regardless, I don't think the rates of all goods and services have gone up 25 fold in the last 43 years. If so, a loaf of bread would be $8.25.

    Library Books Returned 50 Years Late

    That fine money would be overpaid if that town was like mine. I got my first library card when our first grade class went to our public library on a field trip. The fine for overdue then was 2 cents per day. So I figure if checked out a book the first day of 1966 (that approx. date) the fine...

    An honest and accurate essay on Lincoln

    As I assume you are referring to White v. Texas (1869) in particular, or as one such case, that was just wrongly decided constitutionally by Amendment X. The obvious reason was: in the recent war between the seceded states and the present "reconstruction" thereof, is the highest court in the...

    Pork eaters

    Thanks for the welcome back. Surgery went well, and they told me follow-up xrays looked good last Friday. I feel well enough to get out, but I can't drive yet.

    Pork eaters

    This is my first post since surgery (hip revision) 2 weeks ago, and yes, I eat pork. As a rule, I don't eat it often, but every time I taste bacon I think I miss a good treat. The members of my BFG [Bible Fellowship Group] have been bringing food over to helpless me, and the best thing has...

    Insurance needs

    "Other answer." I am single with no dependents. Even so, in LI I have twice my annual income, + $20,000 from my bank for a charge of $6.60/month. That should go quite a ways toward taking care of things if I leave big hospital bills or other debts, and hopefully the estate + LI will be...

    If you had a Muslim or Jew over for dinner...

    I have lived in my house 8 years and have had 'dinner guests', I think , 3 times, not including when my brother came over to watch a game and we had pizza or something in front of the television. And none of those had special dietary needs or convictions. So I suppose I don't really know. I...

    Stick a Fork in the Dallas Cowboys - They're Done

    The term "moral victory" has gone out of favor in recent years. You either win or you lose; and even if you see a shining light in that loss, it wasn't enough to change the outcome, so why think it will be enough in the immediate future? But for Dallas, this win was like a moral defeat. They...

    Nobel Peace Prize?!?!

    It's obviously the Political Prize, not Peace Prize. Hopefully most Americans will recognize this as a fraud when he fails to live up to it over the next 3 years.

    Flagged while thanking God

    Now how in the world does the NFL expect players to "pray without ceasing?" It lets them keep the "armor of the Lord" on-- at least the 'helmet of salvation' part; even requires that [the "Emmitt Smith Rule"]. The Bible, on the other hand, seems to esteem guards over tackles... many scriptures...

    King Lear's English

    Shakespeare used many 'contractions' that we seldom write today, though some people may pronounce in such a way... "ta'en" [taken], "a'" [as in God a' [have] mercy]" Some of this is from his native 'West Country' dialect.

    Stick a Fork in the Dallas Cowboys - They're Done

    Somehow Dallas seems to have their roster getting more filled with players whose 'peak' is in the early years and they're less effective when they should be better (aged about 25-33)... Romo, Flozell Adams, Marion Barber, Marcus Spears, and maybe now DeMarcus Ware and Jason Witten. Roy...
