    College Football Countdown: 3-1 Texas, Oklahoma and Florida

    No, there was no good-or-bad judgment in that. It's just that if one of them loses its quarterback, it wouldn't be the same team.

    College Football Countdown: 3-1 Texas, Oklahoma and Florida

    I think all 3 are too dependent on their experienced QB's for a MNC run. IMO it's likely that at least one will lost its QB for significant playing time, which could make big difference. This is likely to be surprising, but I am predicting Baylor to be a darkhorse in the Big 12 South. Though...

    Childhood Obesity Report Calls For Government Regulations

    I've got it! Eating is part of healthcare, ain't it? Let the government feed everybody, and only the "right" kind of foods. Put Chef Boyardee and his canned Spaghetti-O's out of business and enforce the rule that it's fresh pasta made from the whites only of the eggs, or nothing. Sink Cap'n...

    Mary Jo Kopechne Can Finally Rest in Peace!!!

    There is, though, a clear indication that he had something(s) to hide. Would you wait 10 hours to report such an 'accident' if you had nothing to hide?

    How did you find out that he did that before he swam out?

    Sen. Edward Kennedy Dies at 77

    Is he the last of that generation of Kennedys? If there are any more they must be low-profiled considering their "royalty."

    Can CoC be considered Christian?

    I think there are 2 things wrong with this type of approach. The first is wanting to deem someone Christian or not based on whether they put things in the same terms, with those terms usually being nonbiblical. Do they have to believe "the Holy Spirit is a person"? Since such a statement is...

    “But have nothing to do with worldly fables…” (I Timothy 4:7)

    "Unfruitful works of darkness?" Would that include planting onions at midnight with no moon out? No fruit; no light.

    “But have nothing to do with worldly fables…” (I Timothy 4:7)

    I have considered what you say here, and I may end up admitting that I have long had a pre-conceived notion about this verse which might not be true, or not completely true. But I have used it and quoted it in regard to occultism/spiritism because of its blanket forbiddance ["have nothing to do...

    What is your astrology sign

    If you know you shouldn't even know it, I wonder why you're posting it. Silly disclaimers... "I know I shouldn't say this, but......................"

    “But have nothing to do with worldly fables…” (I Timothy 4:7)

    Inspired by another thread about astrology, which of these activities do you think are forbidden by this biblical admonition?

    What is your astrology sign

    What does anyone think about reading "fortunes" as from 'fortune cookies?' A few did that in our group (Bible study department) yesterday when we went to lunch at a Chinese buffet. I don't read those, but they seem to be basically social proverbs, per se. One I remember was something like...

    Obama not doing well in polls

    Obama's polls now are like the pre-season polls. Remember the older Bush... his ratings were the highest after Desert Storm, which was a few months too early; for then voters turned to domestic issues and an economy getting worse and his ratings fell, costing him re-elction. It's the last 6...

    No; no way. Imagine not letting them smoke! [or could they smoke pipes and cigars?]

    What is your astrology sign

    Not that I remember. I do remember being told what it was by my sister when I was approx. 2nd grade, or at least old enough to read this book she got from somewhere telling about the 'characteristics' of those who 'under the same sign.' From then on, whenever I heard anything about astology...

    Advertising the church

    Our church has done billboard advertising before, and I don't see how it is different from putting a motto or a few clever words on a marquee; except it will cost more, unless 'connections' take care of that. Most of them I have seen try to appeal to the youth, telling about "The Rock," our...
