This is a very interesting article. https://answersingenesis.org/culture/study-only-thirty-seven-percent-american-pastors-have-biblical-worldview/?srsltid=AU7gw4UI9IDORN7Zwz2xRS66GsCy9rgA1C_Vb4-b1CH2Ou5Q4V6v-mTK

I find this thread to be interesting. Someone quoted the oath of enlistment. Fine, but that's not all of the obligation. I retired after 30 years of service in the Army. During those thirty years, I spent 3 as a recruiter. I served as a platoon sergeant, first sergeant, and command sergeant...

I remember watching the first Super Bowl with my dad.

Let me see if I understand you correctly. You believe we are under no obligation to honor the obligations we made as a member of the UN. If that's the case, then are we obligated to adhere to the Geneva and Hague Conventions or any treaties we signed? BTW having veto power in the UN does not...

It was a violation of Article 2(4) of the UN Charter. "All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations."

I had my first infusion Thursday afternoon. It was a 90 minute process. That evening I went to the Brotherhood meeting at church. In the middle of it, I started having one of the side effects. I was so cold my teeth were chattering while my body shivered. By the time I got home, it felt like I...

I remember when Georgia had two area codes. 404 was for the Atlanta metro area and 706 was for the rest of the state.

You keep saying the US was the aggressor in the Cold War, yet you have not posted one single fact that proves that. You come across as loving the USSR and disliking the US with this persistent idea that the US started the Cold War and were the aggressors. This thread is about the bomb. If you...

I have to disagree with you on us being the aggressors and not the Soviets. Relations between the US and USSR soured when the Soviets signed the non-aggression agreement with Germany in 1939 that divided Poland between them. The agreement made those two nations allies. I explained in an earlier...

Good question. If the bombs hand not been invented, then an invasion would be necessary. Then it comes down to Russia invading Manchuria and the other allies invading Japan. We know how Russia succeeded against the Japanese forces there. What would he have done after that? The first planned...

The first US military personnel entered Hiroshima 33 days after the bomb was dropped. It wasn't until 60 days after the drop that first massive wave of military occupation troops arrived in Hiroshima. Twelve American POWs were held in cells in the center of Hiroshima. Most of them were killed...

My 7th great granduncle was George Fox, the founder of The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). He was raised in the Church of England. He believed it had become a hollow, politically driven institution that prioritized outward rituals over true inner faith.

During my lifetime I have seen many preach. There are those whose passion for what they are saying is evident in their voice. Then there are those who sound angry because of the yelling. The latter I don't care for.

My point is it's legal. The only way to change it is for Congress to pass legislation to do so and a president to sign it into law. That, term limits, and a balanced budget will never happen. Read the last chapter of the Bible.

Miriam Adelson contributed over $100 million to Preserve America PAC in 2024. There's nothing illegal about that. In 2026, she gave $25 million to the super PAC MAGA. Nothing illegal about that either. You can give as much as you want to a PAC, but not directly to a candidate. Bill Gates and...

In that statement you state the rich should not be eligible to run for Congress or POTUS. Special interest groups and corporations create PACs, they can use to make campaign contributions. They can give no more than $5,000 to a candidate. They can also form Super PACs. Super PACs cannot give...

The political system is full of corruption. There are enough laws right now that are are ignored rather than enforced. That's one problem. The other problem is the candidates. It appears we are always in the position to chose who is the lesser of the two evils because neither political party...

My brother Michael was born in 1958 as well.

In the third grade there were 3 Gary's in my class. Our teacher called us by our first name and last initial.

Mine was #13 in 1957.
