Wow, Jim! You do have an opinion on this. :wub: Thanks for expressing it. Next question: Why don't you write a comment to that article in the Herald Sun? What would you say in response to this secular journalist in a secular newspaper in language that that is not sanitised by Christianeze? In...

So, is it OK to promote, 'paedophiles are born that way' and that 'would make it not their fault'?

Well said, Jim. I have a fresh appreciation of some of the prominent and obscure church fathers after my recent examination of their views on Jesus' resurrection (all that I examined believed in his bodily resurrection and not some metaphorical fantasy) and the communal resurrection at the end...

Thanks, Hammer, That would be a help as I'm having to squint to read the lighter words at times.

Why are you not addressing the specifics of the issue I raised?

Is this a feature or problem with the software that whenever I use the quote option it gives the citation in lighter coloured font? Here's an example: I find that to be a distraction in reading a post. Is there some way to fix the quote so that the font colour is not reduced in its sharpness...

Brothers & sisters in Christ, There are some outrageous views in the world of secular journalism. I came across an opinion piece in the Melbourne (Australia), Herald Sun newspaper online, 8 April 2015, 'Should we help paedophiles? What choice do we have?' by Tory Shepherd. The sub-heading was...

Brother Stan, if you want warmer Canadian weather throughout most of the year, you'll need to locate closer to Vancouver. I went to college for a short time at Summit Pacific College, between Abbotsford & Mission BC. This was only about 1.5 hours from Vancouver - up the Fraser Valley. Perhaps...

Thanks, Stan, What a delightful photo of your grand-daughter. Imagine the challenges 14 years from now? I got the lawn mowed and the yard looks so much brighter. We are able to put grass clippings in wheelies here in north Brisbane (Moreton Bay Regional Council). We couldn't do that where we...

Stan, I'm learning that already and who some of them are. Sadly, people don't seem to want to see what they are doing to prohibit logical, reasonable, accessible (can I think of any more adjectives?) conversation. How has the Easter weekend been in Calgary? Do you have public holidays for...

Jim, That is very well said. Good on you for such biblical common sense. We do tend to get locked into our universe of lateral thinking. God is way beyond that and our comprehension. But he has given us enough information in Scripture to let us know that he is the omniscient one. Oz

pom2014, Actually, I live in North Lakes, which is only 2 suburbs removed from Kippa-Ring. I was at Kippa-Ring about 3 weeks ago for to visit the office of the Dept of Transport & Main Road for the renewal of my driver's licence. There's a large K-Mart in the shopping centre at Kippa-Ring. What...

Logabe, I'm of the view that the Bible does teach that there are degrees of punishment in hell and you have touched on one set of verses: 1. Since God is “the righteous Judge” (2 Tim. 4:8), we would expect that sinners would be punished according to the extent of their sin. This is what the...

Logabe, Jesus is not the Father. He is the Son. To say that 'I and the Father are One' is not synonymous with 'I and the Father are the Same'. The Son and the Father are 2 persons of the Trinity.

logabe, Are you really asking: Are there degrees of punishment in hell [Gehenna]?

:mellow:

So why are you not taking note of what you do that prevents logical discussion? You should be getting the point of what you do.

You are still not answering what I wrote at #10. :rolleyes:

Harvest, Yes, they were 2 great games against India and then NZ. It's too bad that there could be only one winner. Last year was a sad one for professional cricket in Aust when leading batsman, Phillip Hughes, was felled and killed by a ball from a fast bowler. See, 'Phillip Hughes freak...

Please go back to #2 to get an accurate indication about what I was talking about. The problem is when you continue to perpetrate a red herring fallacy that is contrary to what I wrote at #2.
