    Christian baker and transgender cake lawsuit

    Again completely incorrect and wrong with your false allegations. You accuse me of hating people. Completely incorrect. I hate sin...not the sinners. God died for sinners and not the self righteous. But that in no way allows me to endorse sin with artistic pursuits. Try again.

    Christian baker and transgender cake lawsuit

    None of those laws exist in scripture. There is no sin in being a child of a single parent...the parent is not my concern except for paying for the cake. The child is. You have mismatched ever thing you claim as far as I am concerned. Asking me to endorse sin with my talents is...

    Teaching that predestination was invented by Calvin is a lie

    These are late to the party so to speak. Because you don't understand scriptures. The discussion was a common debate in bethmidrash. Peter asked Jesus (in the Gospel of John) who was correct by asking the "original question" of "Who sinned to cause this man to be born blind?," John...

    Ukrainian offensive land take back in blue, cost was 70 thousand Ukrainian lives

    So please explain The Holomodor. Why did Reagan view the USSR as a great evil? Those that do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. The Ukranians just want to live. They want to farm their lands and sell their crops without Russian interference. Ukranians didn't start this...

    Christian baker and transgender cake lawsuit

    Yes....my bakery means my rules. Customers are not allowed to tell me when to open or close. They don't create my menu. They don't tell me how to pick the color of my tables and chairs or even the walls. Just because other bakeries might do such things doesn't mean that I have to. You...

    Christian baker and transgender cake lawsuit

    You have a LOT of misconceptions. Believe it or not we really didn't ever have a lot of heavy set people in my shop. Mostly it was skinny people from surrounding offices. When operating a bakery or whatever foodservice these days "everyone" is on a diet of some form. So the...

    Christian baker and transgender cake lawsuit

    As "the baker" it actually does. I'm the one baking the cake or not. I'm a primadonna, not a drama queen. I make what I want when I wish to...according to the schedule I made out. I'm the baker. I own the bakery. I'm not making that cake....and the court said the same thing. Passion...

    Christian baker and transgender cake lawsuit

    As a retired bakery owner.... Nope. Completely wrong. I make and create art. My talents are a gift from God. I may have gone to school and practiced hundreds of thousands of hours but I still consider my gifts and talents as a gift from God. As such I would rather die and rot away in...

    The twelfth Apostle

    The office of "apostle" in Jerusalem had a lot of responsibilities. Even though Jesus had been arrested, tried, convicted and executed there were still over 200 faithful gathered together. Once the story of Jesus's resurrection became known AND the event at Pentecost...these apostles were...

    Givers and Takers

    Where the debt of sin that We/I personally owe can never be paid for by Us/me... We/I do have to at least make an effort to express my gratitude in a real way. It's never going to equate but the perceived lack of gratitude by not even attempting to try is inexcusable. Three times a year the...

    Ukrainian offensive land take back in blue, cost was 70 thousand Ukrainian lives

    Don't care.... Russia does but their opinion doesn't matter. Besides...I don't think that with the new aerial defenses that Ukraine will succeed with hitting inside of Russia. The goal of hitting inside of Russia is not so much damage or lives as it is the political pressure it creates...

    What happened to Enoch? Would love some input on this.

    Yep....contextual evidence demonstrates conclusively that it was written around 300-100 BC in Southern Egypt. Almost near where once existed the Barbarian horde known as Cushites.

    Prayer For New Job, Please.

    Apprehension and comprehension look, smell, and seem identical but they aren't. And that's why I am saying what I'm saying. I completely understand that you apprehend the issue of time with your children. But you still missed the important parts of what I said and acted as if I'm...

    Prayer For New Job, Please.

    Just as an FYI. Government hiring is extremely slow...to the point of ridiculousness. Just roll with it. Secondly.... The way you mentioned "quality time" with your kids. I understand what you intended versus said as "fun time". ANY AND ALL time with your children is precious. You...

    Ukrainian offensive land take back in blue, cost was 70 thousand Ukrainian lives

    I have no idea where you get your information but it is really really wrong. I've been in the area that is fighting and can tell you point blank nothing you have said resembles the truth. (Except for the two bombs on Japan which were termed as "city destroyers" which led their decision to...

    Givers and Takers

    There are those among us who are classified as "givers". They are forever giving something away to someone or being generous somehow. And even in relationships often one of the two people is a giver.... But....then there are the "Takers". These are those always asking for help...always...

    Jews=God's chosen special people!!

    Romans 9:6 But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel, Psalms 50:10-12 10 for every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills. 11 I know every bird in the mountains, and the insects in the fields...

    Schwab wants his WEF to take over all countries with full control over their governments.

    Schwab is not going to be around too much longer or it will be completely changed from current ownership. They got hung with a huge stack of low interest government bonds. (Commercial paper assets leveragable for cash). So they claim they are hanging on to them until maturity. (Bad move)...
