    dumb questions I was emailed

    Maybe "they" are goofy. :Broadly: Weren't the scribes pretty meticulous about copying the stuff? Do we need originals to believe the Word? Wouldn't God have preserved them if that were the case? I get nervous talking about this stuff what with the way folks are about it. The "inerrancy"...

    Homosexuality: Wrong or Right?

    The Bible makes no false claims about homosexuality. Sanctify them through Thy truth: Thy word is truth. There is no valid evidence that being the target of hate and discrimination directly causes mental health problems. Otherwise, all of the apostles would have been fruitcakes. There is...

    Homosexuality: Wrong or Right?

    I like this, I really do. I just wish it sounded more like "righteousness vs. sin" than "us vs. them." .

    dumb questions I was emailed

    Isn't there a difference between the term "manuscript" and "original manuscript?" I read a lot about this stuff many years ago. I even read Wilkinson's "Our Authorized Bible Vindicated." I have no idea how I got through it. What I get from this is pretty much the same thing I get from nearly...

    For a specific recipe, I'd have to get back to you on that because I don't have one. It's one of those things I just do. Let's see what I can ramble on about with regard to this. One important thing is to get flavor into your flour. I use a little Canola oil to brown it. My grandmother did...

    Ouch! Try to get more sleep. Or even just sleep the same amount but go to bed earlier. Just concerned for your health. :Broadly: .

    Homosexuality: Wrong or Right?

    But why would anyone want to read through all of that stuff when they can just read the Bible and see that the practice of homosexuality is sinful? I'm sure this seems like an obnoxious over-simplification but it's actually a serious, albeit rhetorical question. There are many contributing...

    I really like this one, because only natural selection could account for the advancement human waste has made over recorded history, right? .

    Should Christians celebrate Christmas, Halloween?

    I don't celebrate Halloween but I can do a pretty good Charles Laughton-esque Quasimodo. I can dislocate my shoulder blade, effect a British accent, twist my face up, and say: "I'm deaf, you know." .

    The belief is that it digests better, similar to the sourdough phenomenon. Most fermented food products contain acetic acid, which is injurious to the stomach lining, the consequences of which are rarely seen acutely. Most of what ails folks is chronic, generative (slow) disease. And I'm gonna...

    I could make you some gravy you'd never know was good for you. Funny, I like biscuits, I really do, but for some strange reason, I've always preferred my gravy on toast. .

    Hey, I'll stay up late talkin' about cookin' and food. Been havin' a little trouble sleepin', actually. Nothin' serious. Don't know why I'm usin' "n'" so much. :p .

    Hominy grits are made from corn specially treated with an alkaline solution. My folks are from Tennessee so I possibly know a little too much about grits and other weird southern stuff. :) .

    I think it's just Italiano for "grits" or something. It often comes pre-cooked in a roll like breakfast sausage. Could you be thinking of orzo or couscous? .

    Last night we had polenta (that's what it says on the bag but I think it's grits - lol) with onions and mushrooms on top. I'm not crazy about mushrooms at all but polenta really pretties them up, to me. .
