I went to public school as a kid and they taught us that Lincoln was a hero. He saved the country and ultimately the world from slavery according to the textbooks. No one brought up any states rights issues or the percentage of southerners that owned slaves. According to the history I learned...

Very good post. I have a question I am dealing with regarding the authority issue. Are we supposed to follow those in authority over us if they are clearly against God and the Bible? If we choose not to follow that authority is it ultimately because of pride? If we do choose that authority...

"The confederate army was in rebellion to the U.S. Army who were about money and power," Big Brother doesn't want anyone to remember people standing up to the US govt. The civil war was not about slavery, as kids are taught in public schools, it was about power and the people lost and...

A panel of 20 doctors and scientists was asked in Pageant Magazine, what is the greatest single cause of insanity in the U.S.? It's not a wife and kids?? What kind of doctors were these?

Isn't that close to what the Pharisees and Saducees were doing in Jesus' time? Forcing people to blindly follow their interpretation of the law and not explore the meaning behind it? Jesus came to show them the error of their ways. I am sure He will come again to show the people, once again...

Your name reminds me of the old Life cereal commercial. "Let's give it to Mikey, he hates everything. Whoa, Mikey, He likes it!"

What would be the correct Christian response to the US govt. rounding up "insurgents" and placing them in concentration camps and exterminating them?1. Should we rise up and fight back, knowing that it is wrong for any govt. or group to do this?2. Should we do nothing and have faith that God...

I wish there was a Christian Party (Biblical – Family Values) Especially at the state & local levels. There is the Constitution Party. They believe in Jesus and Family values. I believe most of what I have seen from that party, however I don't know if it is a good idea to force Christianity on...

What I know is this. We are against powers and principalities that we know very little about. Those powers and principalities seem to focus against you as soon as you choose Jesus Christ as your saviour. These powers want to erode your faith and confidence in Jesus. Can they do it? I think...

its plain stubbornness to see the truth of the Word as God presents it over men's tradition. But hey if your comfortable dening Gods word thats entirely your choice I would never be comfortable denying Gods word. It's your word that I'm not so sure about. You seem to have read a lot between...

I have been reading the Old Testament for about a year and a half now. I am convinced that God didn't want men to form governments. I think He wanted to be our King. The point I am getting to is that things that are against the bible would never be made lawful in that kind of society.I am...

I think the world and men teach an old world (4.5 billion yrs old) more than people who believe in the bible and creation. I'm not saying Kriss and Jag are wrong, I'm just saying what they have posted isn't likely based on what I have read of the bible and the refutation of Evolution...

I used to listen to Heavy Metal. I think this type of music brings out a nature of man that is counter to Christianity. I think music does things that are subtle. You will have to ask yourself, why don't I listen to or like music that is obviously good? Such as gospel music or music about...

Jesus Christ Himself insisted on water baptism. If it was that important for Him it should be at least as important for us. Think of it this way - what do you really have to lose by being baptised with water? Aside from pride and a little body heat.

Nice video Wakka. Unfortunately the responses to your video prove your point and the point of this thread.I'm always the most disappointed with people during elections. How come they can't see through the charade?

Interesting! After a year and 151 posts this person is still being welcomed. Thank you everyone. After Denver replied over a year ago I kinda forgot this was here. Thank you though.

(Dunamite;39148) You are not wrong. Democracy is a fairly recent invention. In Rome and Greece only the wealthy could vote. Up until recent centuries voting was a privilege of men and the rich and not a universal right.The only reason it was made universal was because it had already evolved to...

Minor error ?????The example I gave (was and became) is beyond a MAJOR error. I view it as a very minor error. When something becomes something it is. After it became what is it? It was. I'm obviously not a language scholar and I know very little about Hebrew except I think it is read right...

I'm not sure if I agree with you or St. Aquinas but I will try to simplify this a little bit to make sure we are both agreeing.Just because A law is passed by a government doesn't mean that law is morally correct.And also just because a government has not forbidden an action does not make that...
