<sigh> 1st, I don’t know if he misused a word as you say. It could be that he used the word properly and you are in need of humility and correcting. 2nd, I reject your claim that the validity of his point hinges on the use of a particular word. 3rd, he has a valid point, conveyed over...

Wrong. The Founding Father's were nationalistic but not fascist. The opposition to nationalism stems from the evil globalist agenda.

Yes, including the majority of people of all stripes. I do agree that Christian evangelists are to be praised while Christian proselytizers need to be forgiven for the zealotry over love.

I just finished reading Wild At Heart by John Eldridge (given a 4-star rating out of 5 by me). In it, he pits God and our true self with our fleshy, ego based self (that is liable to succomb to Satan's evil whisper of tempation). In the dark, we hear 2 voices. I submit that it is not enough for...

It's not phobia. Homosexuality or transgenderism hurts many. Both are identity disorders. We do a disservice to the victims of the disorder to pretend their disorder is normal. And embracing the normalizing of it is societal suicide, humans experienced many times. See The Fate of Empires. Now...

So irrelevant. Implied is your embrace of multculturalism that not only is wrong, didn't exist at the time in question. Holding people to a non-existent standard is a sign extreme stupidity is at play.

Such self-centeredness! You’re proving to have the inability to respond to another’s original idea. You only acknowledge people responding to points you make AND ONLY IF they respond in the way you prefer. When you are called out on your BS, you have the audacity to accuse the other person...

If every thread and post explores the meaning of words, it muddies up conversation. Worse, it violates Scripture. It is AS IF @Aunty Jane never read 2 Timothy 2:14. I suppose her IDOLATRY of knowledge and pedantic nature cannot help but sin, in showing off that she knows foreign language...

Sure but that is a different question than the OP. I came across a website yesterday that claimed Jesus is the word of God. So, you see the growing dilemma, in addition to books not in the Bible that are also contain the word of God? Then there are my personal experiences with God and his...

So, no thesis. That's too bad. FWIW, what you wrote in post #3 is a summary of a chapter of a book. (Nice summary). However, my question was about the purpose and motivation for the thread. An example would be. "I want to delve into 3 Scripture verses in how they are relevant today ..." Given...

Indeed. The ego is the though one. As humans, we tend to have a God complex. See Original Sin. Atheists embrace the God complex big time. For instance, he claims God is unfalsifiable. Not true. All they have to do is what the figment of our imagination did in Genesis: Create a universe Create...

All my teams won. For the Conference Champs, my picks are: AFC: KC NFC: SF

You mean, like the common sense meaning of soon?

Is there a thesis to the OP?

Agreed. It is a colorful way to make a point. Like JFK's, 'do not ask what your country can do for you,' is also a colorful way to make a point. Of course, Christianity is a religion. It has rituals, like going to church and saying standard prayers, like Hail Mary and the Lord's Prayer. It has...

Patently untrue. The most basic question is why is there not one single verse that comes out and says this like Mark 1:1 comes right out and says who Jesus is, God’s Anointed, the Christ, the long awaited Messiah. Seems to me there is only disbelief of that.

Yea, security from NATO encroachment.

Not a laughing matter. You've offered help like those who admired the Emperor's New Clothes.

Says you. The idea that Christians have a burden to study foreign languages is nonsense and nowhere in the Bible. Obviously, we will have to agree to disagree about the very basics of our shared faith. <sigh> You are lost. Yes. Yes you did say that we are born again into a desert. The type...

Here it comes ... There it goes. Correct. I rationally ignore as much nonsense as I can. But you don't make it easy. Listen friend, I too have had experiences with God. They leave me humbled beyond words. You have embraced a God complex. When I mentioned the speck, that was a perfect...
