    No. You only say that when you THINK it supports your stance. By the way, you dodged the queston I asked you... I suspect tou will continue that trend. Really? Where? Where does Paul use that word? I'm looking on Biblehub.com and I don't see it! I see ἐγέννησα.... That means begotten...

    Well, I was wondering when you would show up, and I am glad you did. We have unsettled business on this issue from many years ago! This is not a new argument: not in history nor on this board. You and I discussed this once and you got the final word because the moderators shut the discussion...

    Thanks... Got it. I lost 4.32%. So I put in the sell. Fortunately I only had about $19 invested so I lost less then a dollar. It'll go on my watch list for now.

    CCS isn't doing so well for me! down 6.53 in the last week since I bought it. Should I stick with it? I believe I should. Maybe even invest more... Buy low, sell high, right? My philosophy is to look at things in the long run....its tough to do when you have time ro look at the ticker once...

    This really shouldn't be hard to understand. There is a spiritual man and an earthly or carnal man. We have our "dads" who are carnal fathers, and in the Bible it extends back to our forefathers. We have one spiritual Father which is God, or Jesus Christ (he is referred to as the everlasting...

    Doctrine

    Doctrine is the teaching or the belief. Its what your Church (or you) teaches and believes. Its pretty much the most important part of any religion and that includes Christianity. Some may look to argue that point, but its hard to say that its wrong without a doctrine that says its wrong...

    Being on the Chesapeake Bay, I can see that. I heard of a fella who financed a boat, and after one crab season paid it off.

    Really haven't looked into it from the investment side of things. My dad was into boating and owned one on a couple of occasions. He was financially well off and could afford one. Probably 80% of Americans can't. And probably only 10% of the 20% who can afford them want one or will want to...

    Doing The Right Thing

    I suppose it depends on what level of "the right thing" we are talking about. But I wonder if a case could be made for common sense and previous life experience.

    Let me tell you my thinking on this... Yes, I get it that malls are reopening, but the retail stores I have been following are not in malls (Walmart, TJ Maxx, Big Lots, Dollar General). With the exception of TJ Maxx,the other stores never closed and they boomed. TJX did well for a while once...

    Song of The South

    Well... If it offends some people then they shouldn't watch it. And if they come to your house, you would be wise not to show it. With the whole woke culture and cancel culture happening, I would like to say they are both cancers. I want to support the woke culture, but can't. I would like...

    Giving CCS a shot... Thanks for explaining PE ratio, John DB. I think I am getting out of retail to a large degree. With Covid and the stimulus checks dying out, it looks bleak until August when back-to-school season starts and Christmas usually mid October. However, I am suspecting it...

    Thanks... I will definity have to look at at a few more times. When I really tried to understand the ratio, the best I could come up with is this: if the P/E ratio is 15, then they are spending $15 to make $1. That's not the same as your simple explanation that seems to say it'll take 15...

    Question

    Is that a law or command?

    Question

    Causes? No. Requires? Yes. Matthew 22:36-40.

    Funny how you mentioned Blockbuster... Both my wife and I worked for them. I was a grunt there as a second job. She was a manager as a primary job. Anywhere she went as a manager her stores did well... The stayed in the black.... She's good at her job! But overall, the company, which was...

    I'd like to talk about cannabis. Nope... I don't smoke pot nor am I an advocate (up to a point). Not going to lie and say I never did, but its been literally decades. There is a lot of talk about it in the world of the stock market and you can actually invest in companies.... Many of them...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    Robert, if you want to call what I had to say disingenuous and a rant that is fine. I didn't intend either, although i could easily charge you with the same. Furthermore, you have done the same as many others before you: trying to draw parallels which don't fit properly to prove the trinity...

    Suction Cup Therapy?

    As an athlete, never tried it. However, I did try acupuncture and I thought it helped. It wasn't a miracle cure for my condition, but I was less in pain. So it isn't bad to look into it and understand it.

    I hear ya! Starbucks isn't on my radar, but I wouldn't invest in them either. I feel the same way about Nike. I am a competitive athlete and would use several of their products in that Under Armour is the only company that comes close to their quality overall. The exception is running shoes...
