Thank you for the post. The only sex sanctioned by God is between a man and women in covenant marriage. These women, and the men who impregnated them, will be appropriately judged by God. Peace.

Thank you for the comment. Is rape/incest a valid reason? Suppose a woman raped by a family member decided to carry the child to term and then put it up for adoption. What should, say, a hospital do with this baby, child conceived in rape/incest? Special brand? Deny it any public support...

A warm welcome! We hope your reasons for joining are fulfilled. Blessings.

Consider Japan, whose population decreased from ~127 million to ~123 million in the last 10 years. The birth rate is below replacement level, and Japan allows essentially zero immigration. On the other hand, Japan’s population was ~ 60 million 100 years ago. So is a population decrease...

Thanks for the additional analysis and background. Perhaps the strongest argument is the one each of us the most trouble answering. Peace.

Thanks for posting. This presentation is excellent, not just in giving the evidence for His existence, but that theism alone is not what we need. Why should we care? It is good for us to be able to defend our faith, not only for ourselves, but there is always the possibility we could convert...

Thank you for the response. Are you suggesting Jesus doesn’t care about our behavior, even signature goat behavior, as long as we declare Him as savior? Christianity set itself apart early on not only by caring for those who had difficulty caring for themselves, but prison ministry (what...

Thank you for the question (or is it a challenge?). This topic has been discussed many times here before, yes? Perhaps there is a nuance I am missing. Consider Matthew 25: 41-45 41 “Then he will say . . . ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and...

Welcome, and thank you for reaching out to us. Do you mainly socialize in the Christian community, or are you able to find friends and colleagues in the general Indonesian population? What are the most challenging aspects of your life in Indonesia. Blessings.

Good question! So, how should our “little monster” toddlers be taught the rudiments of being a human: living harmoniously with others? Parents have the primary responsibility, but how is that working out overall in today‘s society. In any event, schools can and should play a role in...

Thank you for your post. Perhaps you are saying, and I find it quite true, that parables need some “soak time,” and reflection, and even a new perspective from a pastor. It also helps to actively live one’s faith and then return for additional insights. Question: Perhaps the Garden of Eden...

Thank you for your thoughts. Agreed that there is a spiritual reason why our planet and solar system are situated where they are. Reference: a book, “The Privileged Planet.” Related: I read somewhere that the health of Earth depends on plate tectonics and violent weather. Thus, We also live...

If you see any like this, simply Report it, and a staff member will do the rest.

Thank you for the post. Unspoken is that Sen. Kaine views Christians (and possibly Jews) as no better than the Iranian leaders. He fails to see how their leaders have corrupted God’s word to suit their own lust for absolute power. Reminder: Pharaoh hated the Israelites because they accepted...

That is an interesting response. To begin, the two better-known examples of nation reawakening are 18th century Great Britain and 19th century U.S. So, Wilberforce in GB led the movement to abolish slavery. The short-term effect was a huge change in human suffering, but also caused economic...

My posting was intended as irony. If you read the link, it has an example of a Canadian will need to wait over a year just to obtain a an ultrasound. Blessings.

Thank you for your comments. Related: there is rampant drug use in the U.S. and a concomitant rise is drug deaths (both of which are felt as economic problems). Currently, the emphasis is on preventing the large influx of deadly drugs (and on having emergency medicines to prevent death from...

Thank you for your post. If only healthcare in the U.S. were “free.” https://twitchy.com/justmindy/2025/09/03/canada-healthcare-mri-n2418352 Blessings.

If you believe his posts are heretical or apt to lead someone on this site astray, why would you not “Report” his individual posts to the staff? (Per St Basil the Great: “He who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.” At this point, I am going to take Paul’s...

Thank for proving my original point. And thanks also for Titus 3:10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them. You seem to have missed the last part, “have nothing to do with them.” Our fellow Christian has not been preaching...
