Let's not abuse the privilege to post pictures here, thanks.

Topic Closed Agreed. I'm sorry for those who were trying to continue a legitimate discussion.

Well, everyone has their location in life - we won't hold it against you here. ;) Seriously though, we are glad to have you. It's interesting to see the seeds sown at various times go to work years later. We all go through things where we have to put things on the shelf until we are ready to...

Tanya, do share your story with us sometime whether you do it here, elsewhere, or just want to PM me. Welcome to CB, we're glad to have you join us! :)

What happened in the USSR and China are both full examples of Communism. How many mulligans do you require? These two of the largest nations on the Earth both went through the cycle of Communism. What makes Communism what it is comes in the form of the power that is assembled at the top...

For the two earth/heaven theorists out there, I'm just asking an honest question. How do you interpret II Corinthians 12:2? What is the third heaven? Are levels now ascribed to heaven or what?

Well, what about an absolutist Christian monarchy? Maybe a true Christian theocracy? Besides, what exactly is a "true" Communist state? The McCarthy analogy gets quite old, and with all due respect it does show your conditioning with regards to history. My parents were born in a Capitalist...

There's no need to create two topics with the same title and text, and this is also against forum rules. Topics merged. Thanks.

With all due respect, I think your life experiences and education probably have more to do with this misunderstanding than anything. I think in time you'll see what we're talking about. I don't deal in ideals, I deal in reality. Communism simply won't work without either a lack or religion or...

Totally have to disagree based on a couple things. Communism and Socialism have historically always been accompanied by either a lack of religion or a new religion centered upon the state. I'd liken the similarities with Communism and Socialism to saying that Satanism is like Christianity...

I just don't think it's in God's plan for something that obvious at this time. With this particular case, someone pointed out cobwebs in the photos and there are reports of people being hired to bring the wood in to this place. It makes me think of the latter part of I Corinthians 1. Not that...

Never in a person no, but I have rebuked one out of a house. You and your friend have my prayer, remember to try and fill what was voided by dark with light.

jpaul, I'm not sure you came here to seek out dissension and strife. Let's put the cards on the table here. A bit by chance here I came across some of your work over on SMF. Just to me, that's already impressive enough given your condition and I think shows what resolve you do have. That's...

I have to agree with Christina; the very same verse, I Timothy 2:9, came to mind when I read this thread. While I know it's not going to be the popular thing to say here, there has to be a line. I'm not going to condone or condemn here because your true thoughts are between you and God. However...

I think judging and knowing fruit can seem to become splitting hairs, but there is a different. To try and simplify it on our terms, I think of it like this: Judgment is when you make the final call on something. I would equate it with a statement like: "That person is hell-bound because of...

Topic Closed I don't really see this going anywhere further, so on that note, topic closed.

Welcome back, glad you decided to grace us with your presence again. Hope to see you involved, and thanks for the compliment on behalf of the forum here. I know we (and mostly myself) have a long way to go, but I'd like to think we have some serious discussions here that help all kinds of folks...

Looking forward to having you involved in the discussion here HF. Welcome aboard! We need more Christians involved in media one way or another. :)

I noted your faith status; the original forum where this was posted is only available to those of the Christian faith, sorry. I've moved your topic to where you can participate in the appropriate section. Thanks...

Thank you both! I got back from the honeymoon late Saturday and took a day and a half to clear my mind and get back into the swing of things as a now married man. :) It's been the best 9 days of my life yet!
