I think that ship has sailed on this forum, don't you? :D

@April_Rose, I know I'm getting in a little late on this but, to be realistic, anyone who generates as much traffic as you do here is bound to meet up with some opposition. I don't know much of the details about the judgmental treatment you're experiencing but oftentimes I've found that much of...

Love your user id. And your avatar. Welcome to the forum, in case I didn't get a chance to say so already. :)

I must have missed something. I can't find a post in either thread by @April_Rose. Nor one about property rights in this one.

That's pretty deep. :D

I went to church last Sabbath for the first time in a few years. It was wonderful! Not going to make it today. Logistical problems.

My maternal, maternal great-grandmother never cut her hair. It fell down to her ankles (when she let it down) even when she was in her eighties. She was a minister's wife.

If I'm being honest, I think some missing mean people could help by just staying away. Just sayin'. Am I the only one? Not saying we shouldn't pray for them.

lol, I get it. I lived on Guam for six years. During the rainy season, it gets down to near 70 degrees at night. And I think the humidity never gets below 100%. I also get what you say about the subjectivity of the subject. Which would almost kinda explain my reaction about the slavery/dress...

I guess I don't really hate yoga pants. I just kinda wish they'd go away. lol. Did you ever think this thread would go on a "yoga pants" tangent? lol :D

I've never understood this. How can one expect to be taken seriously when dictating terms to another as to what must be done to be saved other than what is contained in the simple Gospel message? Everyone must be convinced in their own minds, especially on peripheral issues. The way some people...

Yay! @FluffyYellowDuck -likes- my Yoga Pants indictment! Not many are sympathetic to that kind of thing nowadays. I no longer have the wandering eye of a 20-year old man, but I think it is cruel for people to dress (or undress, as the case may be) in a manner that strengthens the hands of the...

What kept you from dying the first time you sinned? You didn't purposely leave out John 1:29, did you? It is a matter of distinction between common grace and saving grace.

I hate yoga pants. When we bought our house 3 years ago the realtor, who was attractive and 30-ish, showed up at most of our appointments in Yoga Pants! I thought there was a bit of a discrepancy between the image of her employer--Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway--and her attire. She was such...

Is there really no difference between the evils of slavery and a tradition of dressing modestly? in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing, (1 Timothy 2:9) Whose adorning let...

Living as I do in Central PA, folks from old-order groups are normal scenery for me and, frankly, anywhere they are heavily stationed tends to have safer and cleaner neighborhoods, even those surrounding them. I see more Brethren than anything else. I think they mingle more than some of the...

I wish more women were modest in their apparel. :)

Thank you, my friend. I'm actually experiencing a bit of revival which has, I believe, caused me to back away from the forum to get my bearings and decide how to proceed here. My former course has not been very fruitful overall, I think. I need to be born again, again and again. :) I've long...

Might I offer that God will honor and bless any effort you make toward the keeping of His Sabbath? You could start by preparing a few simple meals the day before and eating them on paper plates the next day. Then maybe once-a-month you could add some small practice to what you've done. If you...

Here's one. I used to really get my back up over at CF when people who called themselves "Seventh-day Adventists" would slyly intimate that the Holy Spirit was a non-personal force. I somehow thought that was a particularly egregious heresy. It seems like it would be, hypothetically speaking...
