    Female Pastors

    Respectfully mjrhealth, your verses are completely out of context. None of them are describing how the authority of the church is to be. Additionally: What you're saying then is that the Bible is not "God inspired", and that the Bible is not the word of God. His word is unchanging, He is...

    Alternative Browsers

    Opera is decent. I normally use chrome and don't try many new things when i find one that works the way i want it to.

    Fear is the root of all violence

    Saying that anger is a secondary emotion, doesn't prove your assumption that all anger comes secondary to fear. And your comment doesn't really address what i had previously stated so I'm kind of lost as to where you were going with that..

    Fear is the root of all violence

    Or you could be guilty of a false dichotomy and a hasty generalization, and anger doesn't really come from fear. I'm sure abusive husbands could attest that they don't beat their wives because they're afraid of them. Edit: 1. Not all anger is bad, so interpreting God as being angry, isn't...

    Christian Justification for Slavery

    You should take time to study what slavery was like back then, before you start quoting verses like that out of context. You original point from exodus 21:16 remains to be proven, so Matthew 22 is irrelevant. Slavery then was not like you're thinking of it. If it were, there would be no year of...

    Fear is the root of all violence

    If fear is the root of all violence, anger comes from fear? I don't think so.

    How Is A Christian Lady Supposed to Dress?

    The main problem is applying this cross-culturally, and cross-contextually. You have to look at what was done then, and what was capable then, vs. what is done now, and capable now. Back then, gold and pearls and things like that were much more about 'status' and wealth than they are now...

    Dear Church, Here’s Why People Are REALLY Leaving You

    Wormwood, I agree with you 100% on this: I would like to clarify a few points about what I'm trying to say. Exegetical teaching just means the you're applying Biblical interpretation to your life, rather than interpreting your life into the Bible (Eisegetical). So it should always be done...

    Free CA Certs

    Since I can tell there are a lot more people who are into website coding, this may be of interest to all of you if you haven't heard of it before. https://letsencrypt.org/2015/06/16/lets-encrypt-launch-schedule.html

    My problem with Faith

    Since no one has answered you yet, A: Remember your old life without God. You made all of the plans, and made provisions to achieve your goals. How does this work with God leading you? The answer to that comes from How we define faith: NIV Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is confidence in what we hope...

    Home Labs

    @POM I don't mean a server farm. or a LAN. A server farm is meant to use multiple servers for a task, like a SAN or a data center and anyone with a router has a LAN. It is as many clients and servers as you want in order to do what you want it to do.. like instruction or learning. As an...

    Home Labs

    This is a homelab: http://imgur.com/clFPCTp I'm talking about computer equipment that you run at home in either hardware or software (like VMWare). I'm soon going to start building a homelab for my Security+, CEH, and CCNA Security certifications. I was asking if anyone runs a...

    The second website you posted has a weather app for Charlotte, NC 28280. I wasn't sure if that was near where you lived

    Twitter

    Twitter is only as effective as what you can say in your 250~ characters. Otherwise it's just another news source. If you find that useful, I think you'll like it.

    Web hosting for web scripting

    Yup! no problem. I'm not very deep into websites or databases, but I have done a lot of other things. Notepad++ is a great tool, and the OWASP framework is great for web application security testing. Can't build websites, but I can break them ;)

    Web hosting for web scripting

    @rockytopva: Have you ever heard of codeacademy.com ? That's a great place to start with html5 css and such. Check it out and let me know what you think.

    I don't have a whole lot of website/ databasing experience, but I do have a wealth of knowledge about computer/ server security. If you want to talk about recommendations for security let me know :)

    Who is Right?

    I don't think I'd go as far as to say that it's opinion or preference, because I don't believe some things are up for debate, but in the larger scheme of things i agree with you. So long as we're not taking our interpretation and making it what the Bible says I agree.
