    It's a funny thing...

    Likewise, Fran. :gd Well, not everyone, including Christians, agree that he is God. You've never disagreed with God about anything? I had some ethical questions myself after reading the story of the Israelites wiping out the Canenites, for example. But notice how he doesn't say that these...

    It's a funny thing...

    That's a great question. Seeing as how I never met the man personally, it's difficult to discern if there are any of aspects of his personality or behavior that I dislike. Plus it's like, which Jesus are we talking about? The Jew that was wandering around Jerusalem in the first century, or God...

    Hey Riven, May I ask?

    But why does he show miracles to some and not to others? I honestly don't know enough about these biological processes to really answer your questions.

    Hey Riven, May I ask?

    No, can't say that I have. Astrologers probably think so. I doubt it. That Jesus was literally born out of Mary's womb again? I can just imagine look on Joseph's face. :funlaugh2 Yeah, that's kind of standard Christian doctrine. Well, I'm very happy for you. I myself, have seen none of...

    Hey Riven, May I ask?

    Who says I don't? It doesn't mean my view is anymore scientific. The question assumes God is the one doing it. Other animals also reproduce. Reproduction appears instead to be an evolutionary process. We are more advanced, yes. One could view life itself as a miracle, but it still does nothing...

    Alright. But the miracles are the important parts. Jesus rising from the dead is important to the story.

    Hey Riven, May I ask?

    What's scientific about miracles? :IDK:

    Direct confrontation with Russia seems likely

    Diplomacy is breaking down. Provocations from all sides. It's not looking good, folks. :no reply: https://www.axios.com/2025/09/26/russia-nato-airspace-ukraine-war

    Hey Riven, May I ask?

    You'll lose nothing in death, that's true. But you did lose a level of agency over your life while you were alive. Yes. While I have agency to do things a Christian cannot do, the the trade-off is that I'm wrong and I pay for it in the end. However, I think Christians that are only Christians...

    Hey Riven, May I ask?

    I appreciate it. As for why I'm not a believer, it's probably because it wasn't part of my upbringing. Or maybe it's because I want to see to believe. Having faith in something is taking a risk. More than that, it also has to stand up to adversity. It can't just fall apart the moment you end up...

    Chatting with Hitler, and other historical figures

    I mean, I'm sure we're all curious what his favorite ice cream was. :funlaugh2

    Chatting with Hitler, and other historical figures

    If you could ask Hitler one question, what would it be?

    Hey Riven, May I ask?

    No, I didn't get any closer to the Lord as a result of going to a Christian School. We had chapel every Wednesday, and I would listen to every word that was spoken by a handful of pastors that were also teachers at the school. I didnt allow my mind to wander because I genuinely envied what my...
