    Noah and the flood

    Maybe it will all end with all the oil ends; so that's how "our days shall be a hundred and twenty years." Nope. But with 40 new species of beetles a day... I guess the Beatles had it right for themselves... "It's been a hard day's night....." Where does that number come from, and what do...

    Men's hair length

    "Allowed" to have long hair? Where do you read that? And if long hair means several feet of hair, which would be the case for a man who was never to cut his hair, then a man with hair to his shoulders would be considered to have short hair.

    Noah and the flood

    Evolution sure works quickly, doesn't it? Counting the years from Noah to the patriarchs to Moses to David to Christ and forward, that comes out to more than 40 new species of beetle per day.

    Noah and the flood

    That doesn't answer the previous questons, though. What was to be accomplished by preaching repentance? Would any converts have been allowed in the ark, or perhaps tried the ark idea themselves?

    Noah and the flood

    Then you do accept evolution in terms of speciation; right?

    Noah and the flood

    Trying to keep discussion on one point, or closely related points, at a time... for those who answered "Noah preached repentance for 120 years before the flood," what is your basis for that? God told Noah that he and his family only would survive-- so what would have been gained by preaching...

    Against Biblical principles

    "Yes, it is a sin." "If the Bible describes it as a sin, it is a sin." "I belevie if the bible tells us how to live godly, God means it." 2 statements as poll answer options were virtually identical, then someone posts a 3rd nearly-identical statement. A Baptist, a Pentecostal, and a Church...

    City corrals Christians at weekend Arab fest

    More than 40, but less than 50, years ago came the 2 major SC cases in which a brief word of organized prayer or a reading from the Bible were held to be unconstitutional. Not all states had these things, but it's significant that in the "Baptist strongholds"-- mainly the South and the plains--...

    Do You Believe In A New World Order?

    Do You Believe In A New World Order? Yeah. Revelation shows God has had his order in for a new one for a long time.

    Tree of Life

    Did the Tree of Life itself have eternal life, or did its fruit have seeds and thus there are generations of Trees of Lives(?)?

    Seen on a bumper sticker . . .

    My dad was like a Texas cotton farmer version of Archie Bunker, and his knowledge of the Bible was about like Archie's, too. He used to claim "It says in there somewhere that 'Moses tied his a== to a tree and walked 5 miles.'"

    Need a prescription for Cheerios?

    Now maybe we will need a prescription for orange juice and all it's Vitamin C-- it's a preventative drug against colds and flu [don't we know? :smilewinkgrin:] Then orange growers will be put out of business like poppy farmers, so we'll send another industry to Mexico and have all kinds of...

    Fathers day

    I ain't a pastor and I don't know what our church is doing 'special' for that occasion. I think last year it was just a word of recognition followed by a little clapping and yelling and hollering. And even though 10% or 15% of all the moms' stuff on their day (a rose for each one; a 'panel'...

    Best Ice Cream

    I have never even tasted Edy's or Mayfield that I recall, or even knew about them. But Blue Bell is a popular brand around here, and expectedly is the most expensive-- I think even at Wal-Mart it is more than $5/half-gallon. But I seldom buy ice cream; and when I do it would be BB, Blue Bunny...

    Amtrak

    I've only taken one trip on Amtrak, from Dallas to Little Rock. The best part is that it's a 'smooth' ride with a gentle rocking motion. But that, plus that the seats are large and comfortable compared to an airplane or a bus, is about all the attraction, for me. For some reason I had thought...

    Men's hair length

    I think he did-- the same as Samuel and Samson, the trio of "Nazarites from the womb," because in all 3 cases he was prophesied and the mother warned not to drink "wine or strong drink" while pregnant, and he must never so much as touch a grape his entire life; nor a dead body. So although it's...
