    Only Believing Jews are God's People

    Abraham was never a Jew. Judah was his great grandson, and there was no tribe of Judah until after Judah had descendants. And later, of course, the smallest tribe of Israel (Benjamin) became so closely associated with the largest (Judah), and the other tribes broke off, so Judah and Benjamin...

    Increasingly, Baptists turning to the observation of Lent

    I observe Lent every time I take my clothes out of the dryer. I wonder if anybody else has ever thought of that line before.

    Catholic Group Petitions Pope to Excommunicate Nancy Pelosi

    "Reread President Kennedy's words"…. "I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute;..." Alright. Churches can construct their buildings with any materials they want to, with any number of exits anywhere they choose, and with any plumbing and wiring they select...

    Gov. Bobby Jindal's response

    Constitutional stupidity. To be president, one must be a natural born citizen. IOW if a pregnant Mexican girl is about to give birth, she better swim or wade fast. That's actually what it depends on.

    How about calling him "Bar'k"?

    Did God make other saceint life in the Cosmos? (other than human or angles)

    All we can say for sure on that is that if there is 'stuff' on our own planet or "out there" than can kill us all-- and no doubt there is-- He created it.

    Did God make other saceint life in the Cosmos? (other than human or angles)

    Merriam-Webster says "the management of household or private affairs" is an archaic definition of the word; it's principle meaning is: thrifty and efficient use of material resources . Since God has no limits on material resources such that they must be used efficiently (though he puts such...

    Did God make other saceint life in the Cosmos? (other than human or angles)

    Whether that, and the rest of your post, is meant as a question or an answer, it is meaningless. What does "wasting space" mean? We have sent probes to Mars and Venus, and they are barren terra firma; no life process, but there are physical processes-- wind, duststorms, seismic activity, gases...

    Removal of Presidential Term Limits

    All of the states which went for Wallace in '68 (2 of which were less than a plurality) would almost surely have gone for Nixon had Wallace not been a candidate. So the only "swing" that would have made would have been a greater margin of victory for Nixon.

    Did God make other saceint life in the Cosmos? (other than human or angles)

    You are making the argument for the position that the universe is so 'big' that it's "improbable the earth is the only place for harboring life," even if you get tongue-tied when asked how big or small a universe must be to make that suppostion. And if that's an opinion, what argument ain't?

    Did God make other saceint life in the Cosmos? (other than human or angles)

    Okay... there should be other life because "it's so big." How big? "Big enough to have other life." Hopefully a lot of other posters will remember this and remind you of it if you accuse them of non-sequitors.

    Oneway Bipartisanship

    I think you've got to admit-- he's got a head on his shoulders. Saddam doesn't.

    Did God make other saceint life in the Cosmos? (other than human or angles)

    I don't quite understand, brother, why you don't understand the question. You made the point of the universe being "such a big" universe for nobody to be 'home.' Adjectives such as "big" and "small" are relative-- but you must have some reference for the universe being too big to not have life...

    Oneway Bipartisanship

    Is that the key to keeping that word from being censored-- capitalizing it? Or has the mod just not had time so far?

    Removal of Presidential Term Limits

    WHAT??? A few of those type may have gone for Nixon, but only on backlash or because they were already inclined toward Republicans. But some went for Eugene McCarthy, who ran as an independent, but started way too late to seriously alter the voting. A few even went to Eldridge Cleaver and his...

    The only ML baseball player to be traded for himself

    That story to click on doesn't give enough info on how it happened. If the NY Mets traded for him, then he was off the Cubs' roster; so how then could he have been the "player to be named later?"

    Did God make other saceint life in the Cosmos? (other than human or angles)

    Then how small would the universe have to be in order for it not to be a big waste? I will assume the 'near-emptiness' of space, of the distances between stars and planets, is acceptable for your standards.
