    Are Mormons Christians? (Latter Day Saints)

    I lived in the heart of Mormon country for many years until I could get out. And when I could....I did. I'm not saying that Mormons are evil....far from it. Some are very moral and great to have in the community. But just like Christians...some are the leeches. (If only we could all get...

    Are Mormons Christians? (Latter Day Saints)

    The term Christ is the Greek translation of Messiah. Christian is literally a "little Christ". A term mocking those who follow Jesus as disciples. Mormons have nothing in common with Jesus except for an elevated sense of morality....that's the extent of the similarities. Mormons do not...

    Smoke weed

    Yep, true until other states began legalizing and taxing it too. Because people would come from every state in the union and transport the Marijuana and THC cartridges across state lines. Take a look at the WHOLE picture instead of a very myopic view. How many farmers, dispensaries, and...

    Unethical treatment of LGBTQ humans / Understanding LGBTQ - 101

    On top of this the crime and public services utilized statistics for this group is disproportionate to any other statistical group. IE: They are a drain on resources instead of adding value to a community. They claim that they simply want a different sexual lifestyle but in other ways they...

    Smoke weed

    Marijuana that is common today bears little resemblance to the Marijuana of 5 decades ago. It's a lot more potent. Also something that is often dismissed is the study that proved repeatedly that consumption of Marijuana had very detrimental effects on young adult brains which weren't fully...

    A manuscript issue with the ending of the book of Mark

    The Early church was a rag tag bunch of misfits in life. They weren't disciplined or took a position in the Church very seriously. They also were hunted and persecuted. The lifespan of early Christians were extremely shortened moreso than the short lifespans of your average individual. The...

    Grilling Adventures

    It's that time of year.... When a man's heart leans toward lighting a fire and making smoke and of course MEAT and veggies covered in carcinogens to provide smokey goodness. Pork, chicken, and even beef with that mouth watering pink smoke ring and zesty marinades and caramelized glazes...

    Unethical treatment of LGBTQ humans / Understanding LGBTQ - 101

    Correct....and in each of these threads your focus is on discounting scripture, bringing God less than Omnipotent, omniscient, sovereign, or holy holy holy. Which aligns itself with promoting a LGBTQ agenda or more appropriately a gnostic viewpoint.

    How could Jacob not know that he was having sex with Leah and not Rachel on the wedding night?

    First off.... Jacob was a BIG guy. Not average sized at all. (His "pillow" during the night of his stairway to Heaven vision tells us that) Esau also was a big guy. Rebecca and Leah were similarly sized, covered in Burkahs and veils. And then as earlier suggested full of food, wine, and...

    Unethical treatment of LGBTQ humans / Understanding LGBTQ - 101

    Because it's an ongoing topic for you. No different from a particular member of this site going on about Saturday worship services. Everything he posts about is turned and twisted into this one subject. When quite literally there is an entire life to be lived out beyond these single...

    Unethical treatment of LGBTQ humans / Understanding LGBTQ - 101

    When you say someone is LGBTQ you are saying that they are an Atheist.... They are opposed to religion....especially Christianity. They can claim to be a Christ follower....but their lifestyle and actions say the direct opposite. People say a lot of crap....doesn't make it true. Faith is...

    Why is it so hard to find a copy of the Douay-Rheims Bible?

    Okay.... But which Latin Vulgate? There were about four different ones and each wildly varying from each other. Where most of these differences contain no theological differences....the text itself is not consistent between the various copies. Which is the problem. And since that time the...

    Be Prepared To Be Wrong

    Doesn't mean you weren't mistaken.... And I agree...Paul's statement here is a massive understatement of the truth. To accuse a Christian is to claim God's atonement is worthless...AKA "Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit " Not exactly something to play around with.

    Be Prepared To Be Wrong

    Might need to do something....like get to work. (LOL) The guy in the video....lol.... He has a LOT of policies and procedures in place that are fully communicated to staff and customers. Because they want the feces they deal with to actually make them some money. Not the kind that robs you...

    Be Prepared To Be Wrong

    Happens to the best of us.... We are wrong on pertinent facts, show up at the wrong time, make a colossal error destroying materials and wasting time. If you have never made a mistake....you ain't doing anything and you really need to get to work. So....when it comes time for...
