As Alexis DeTocqueville predicted, our nation has been "reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd." No need to change that. We quite enjoy letting others do the thinking when our entire lives revolve around being good...

Indeed! And may they never give up hope!

Yes, I can... and I work hard to be prepared to do so in every circumstance... and we all the opportunity every day.

Yes, this is a global issue... but it wouldn't be if we didn't have so many people in high places buying slaves and profiting from their repeated sales... and the fact that they can do it right out in the open, under the noses of Christians, churches, missionaries and people who have direct...

In the Land of the Free, where slavery was outlawed 150 years ago, slavery is thriving in the United States. In fact, Americans are the biggest buyers of slaves in the world. Denial does not make it go away. And turning our backs on the victims goes against everything we are called to do as...

Hmm, not sure if I accept your entire premise here, but I see your point. And I totally agree with you that Darwin is debunked... And Mr. Galton is spewing Victorian-era sexism, whereby they began to presume women dull in the head in order to keep them from winning the right to vote...

Welcome! Looking forward to discussing issues and topics with you!

The Sad Truths of Internet Trolls: 1. Trolls are immune to criticism and logical arguments. True trolls cannot be reasoned with, regardless of how sound your logical argument is. 2. Trolls do not feel remorse. They have sociopathic tendencies, and accordingly, they delight in other people...

my media

Oh so true! The point of my bringing this article to everyone's attention is the twisted logic used by popular beliefs and fad theories... and once repeated enough ends up being an irrefutable fact in the media! I am certain that people will read that article and not take any time whatsoever...

I was entertained by your post... and learned something too! :lol: But instead of us Christians fussing over this, perhaps we should look at how those who still live under Levitical Law interpret these passages, .ie. Practitioners of Judaism. Birds of prey and scavengers are forbidden...

My sentiments exactly!

It implies that the god of this world will do anything to get our eyes off of Jesus and on to man. There are only two things on which we should focus: Loving God with all our heart, mind and soul, and loving our neighbor as ourselves. The rest are man-made rules that may or may not enhance...

Besides the grasshopper, locust, etc. I don't know off hand... I think you're right... so that means the winged four-legged creatures in Leviticus 11:23 may refer to bats. I agree with you that the NIV may have made a mistake using the word "insect" in that passage. The word "flying" in...

The only kind of evolution that might take billions of years is the theory that a bacteria became an elephant. All other types of evolution on the earth take anywhere between a hundred years and several thousand years. Ask a dog breeder. It only takes one hundred years to produce a new breed...

Most flying insects only use 4 of their legs to "creep"... the other two legs are used for balancing, gripping, or feeling ahead of the path they are on. It would make sense that an observer several millennia ago would see 4 legs and two hands.

It did not occur to me until now that we may be using the word "tribalism" differently... When I use the word "tribalism" I am not using Ayn Rand's definition, which means creating classism, castes, etc. I believe that leads to all kinds of chaos and false prophets... I am using the basic...

And I might add that the earth is moving away from the sun, and it moves around the galaxy too! I think there's too much eisegesis going on among students of the Bible these days. It would behoove us all to dig into a hermeneutic study of scripture. There are different literary and language...

I understand your disdain for today's electoral college which creates an oligarchy because the process has been perverted from its original intent. Electors were supposed to be prominent and trusted citizens from each district in a state, not party leaders. Partisan politics have a choke-hold...

So, let me ask you this: How do you defend your use of the Internet? Do you not know that it is the biggest purveyor of pornography and seller of slavery in the world?
