If you want communism, there are a lot of places you could have left for decades ago. Why didn't you? [or did you?]

Communist healthcare is inefficient and costly? or healthcare generally? Is that proposing that the big daddy cover everyone and require everyone to have an annual or semi-annual phyical, with or against their will? "Whatever government funds, it regulates" is often said. And this...

Then what's the point? We already have communist health care if that's true.

That's how I learned about alchemy and alchemists-- in public school. Well, if it's good enough to sell pickles,.....

Interesting this is brought up today. This afternoon on TVLand I saw part of the Gunsmoke episode, "Arizona Midnight," which is surely one of the worst GS eps ever made. A "little feller" comes into the Long Branch and says something about needing help quickly. Festus wants to go over and talk...

Good. She's up in years and probably still needs saving.

Nothing for the 4th, but a few things on that day. We had "Christmas" because we missed it last December; a gift exchange after barbecue and chips & dips and cherry cobbler and watermelon. Then I was back home the next day and went to church, as usual, and grudgingly listened to...

Happy Interdependence Day Is it? Even when our flags say "Made in China" and our fireworks say "Made in USA?"

Does enforcing a creed violate your own creedal requirement in defining Baptist?

There are surely some here who applied-- or at least got the info-- to Baptist seminaries or Bible colleges before the "conservative resurgence" of the late 70's and 80's. Did the applications then not ask one to affirm the BF&M or state why one cannot affirm it in full? I had not seen such an...

Most Southern Baptists advocated prayer to begin a day in public school and before a football game, and a devotional at a PTA meeting. Are you claiming you were SBC-taught, yet taught contrary to these things? More important than this, are you saying you were taught according to the 1963...

We need more Kneeologians? Not many of us. That should be a finer specialty within orthopedics.

Surely they could hire Jeremiah WRight to replace him, couldn't they? Pull some strings, B O!

The chief American idolatries are the worship of wealth and the worship of celebrities. Not far behind is the worship of teams and various entities. So we can be sure it's coming... since Jackson is an immortal object of worship who can't die, many people will refuse to believe he has; it's...

Do you hate your husband and children [Luke 14:26], or have you decided for yourself how much God lied? {or, of course, have you chosen not to be a disciple?}

What problem? Either way, the entire earth won't be flooded.

Ain't that too bad? What's done is done, though. Let's run the new rail.

Yeah, he should be impeached for such behavior. So should Slick Willie have more than a decade ago.

Man, you must have done a lot of throwing up since last year!

To those old enough to remember passenger rail service by the 'big' railroads-- Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Santa Fe, et al... when the government took over that industry and formed Amtrak, is the service better, worse, or the same? Broadly, does government run any industry better than...
