    Should Penn State Get the Death Penalty?

    I agree; all involved, including any/all football players, need to be criminally prosecuted. But why shut down the football program? Only reason I'm asking is, the new coaches weren't involved (and if they were, they should be replaced and criminally prosecuted immediately); and most, if not...

    "Left vs Right" - Politics is a farce.

    Hey, I made a comment about what was posted; YOU chose to respond to my comment and make it a big deal. Again, I pointed out exactly the wording that led the conclusion I made. If you choose to ignore such wording, that's your choice. And there you go with your imprecise language again. Why...

    "Left vs Right" - Politics is a farce.

    Quite familiar with it. The fact that you chose to immediately take a contrary position instead of rationally indicating why you think my inference is wrong, indicates that perhaps you should re-look at Matthew 7:1. Here's my explanation: I replied to Ceegan the same way I would reply to any...

    "Left vs Right" - Politics is a farce.

    "Unrighteous" judgment? How, exactly, is my evaluation of the poster's message "unrighteous"? You read far too much into my answer to Ceegan. As I said: I framed my answer for his/her consideration. You should consider: Is your personal dislike of me clouding your objectivity?

    "Left vs Right" - Politics is a farce.

    It was inferred from this: I checked the poster's personal info, and in it, he claims he's a Christian. A self-proclaimed Christian states "politics is meaningless...this is my only "contribution"...I hate politics." What other conclusion are we to draw than that this Christian feels it's...

    "Left vs Right" - Politics is a farce.

    If all Christians stay out of politics -- then Christians have no right to say anything when non-Christians, anti-Christians, etc. make the laws that prohibit Christian freedoms. No man-made system is perfect. But it's the one we have to live in. And all we can do is do our best to make it better.

    Which Romney?

    My friend, THAT is the epitome of silliness. Why would I point them towards any man when I'm talking to them about Christ? If I were to even discuss politics while witnessing to them, it would be to point out that while we're in these pathetic fleshly forms on this rotten corrupted earth, we...

    New Experiment

    The phone itself is great. A little larger than I was expecting. I've already opened up and worked Google docs on it. As someone mentioned, even on this screen, it's kind of small. But it's *fast*, faster than I was expecting. Netflix works a LOT better than on the previous tablet I had; I'd...

    What is going on? Is God against me finishing my degree?!

    Ma'am, Don't look at the others who are graduating; realize that God has a different, specific plan for YOU. I have an incurable condition; it doesn't prevent me from doing anything, but I have to have a medical procedure every couple of years or so to ensure that it doesn't turn into cancer...

    Which Romney?

    I admit my wording confused you; I pray for all our elected leaders, and our potential ones. Okay, now THAT'S just silliness. I can't remember a single time where I started a conversation with "I voted for so-and-so; now, let me tell you about Jesus." Or, "let me tell you about Jesus; okay...

    Which Romney?

    Now THAT was funny.

    Report: Thousands fled Canada for health care in 2011

    It's amazing what telling an ER person "I have chest pains" will do for your position in line. While in Afghanistan, I told my clinic guys my chest was hurting, but that it was because I had been coughing, and I was pretty sure I had strained an intercostal muscle. They rushed me across town and...

    Which Romney?

    It's the mathematics of the situation, not an opinion thing. If A has 48 votes, B has 48 votes, and C has 1 vote; then there are three votes left, including yours...two of you vote for C, and the remaining person votes for A. Guess who wins? Simple mathematics. Nothing about opinions at all...

    Which Romney?

    And since whoever you're voting for won't win, you're helping one of the two "anti-christs" get elected. That's just the reality of the situation.

    Report: Thousands fled Canada for health care in 2011

    Actually, the better question is: What other cases were being worked on by an already-reduced/over-worked medical staff that were classified as "more urgent" than his wife's, thus causing the extended wait? The times I've had to wait in the emergency room were because someone with a more...

    Which Romney?

    So you have at least 3 people who point out a need for clarification about what you said, but it's their fault they didn't understand you? You do realize how sanctimonious that makes you sound, don't you? Remember--this is print medium. We can't see your facial expressions or your body...

    Okay, that can't go by without a response. What false god am I worshipping?

    Executive Order Outlining Emergency Control of the Internet

    The difference between the Egypt situation and what you identify in your post, is the question: What country will reach out and help us get around those government controls if/when our government decides to flip the switch? I expect that we'll have to see internal "innovators" that find ways...

    Christian tablet computer

    It comes pre-loaded with filtering software; that's about the only thing that makes it different than all the rest.
