Re: Duck Dynasty guy offends gay people with scripture

That's the part that bugs me. And nobody's making an issue out of this. What Phil said regarding blacks being better off under Jim Crow laws is just plain ignorant to say. It reminds me of what I heard that slaveholders said about slaves being better off as slaves in America, than being free men in...

Re: The Origin of Race

Race is not about where people went after they were dispersed. The people's languages were changed at the tower of Babel. I don't think that God randomly chose people for the language they received. I think he picked people with similar genetics to go each way. Those who spoke Chinese and went east ...

Re: Questions about rewards in heaven for believers

What would we do with gold or silver once we die? They will be useless. We won't be buying or selling. All we have, we will lay at the feet of Yeshua (Jesus).

Read Matthew 20:1-16 about pay. Then for duty, read Luke 17:7-10.

Re: KJV "Onlyism"

The KJV is still my favorite version of the Bible. No English version is entirely accurate, because there is no perfect translation. The KJV is an honest translation, though they should have used the LXX instead of the Masoretic text for the Old Testament. Many newer Bibles intentionally add or remo...

Re: More Ice?

I find it funny the amount of misinformation that exists about global warming, every article I have read that denies global warming always focus on one small snippet of information and leaves out everything else that could harm their case. If anyone has a decent article on why the globe isn't warmi...

Re: Vaccines

A while back, I tried colloidal silver(I can't remember what for), and it did absolutely nothing for what it said it would do. Then some years later, I got a letter in the mail regarding a law suit against the colloidal silver company that I purchased mine from. Seems they were making false claims ...

Re: Does God make the rules?

From the other thread where stoning is mentioned, is a perfect example. I don't think that God ever saw stoning as good BUT it may have been a necessary "good" for the Hebrew people that need an extreme punishment to make them "see" how bad, BAD was. Once that came to be, stonin...

Re: Vaccines

If you are not aware, the most famous case, the blue man on youtube, was not from colloidal silver. He was making and drinking silver nitrate in high doses and large quantities. Even so, argyria is cosmetic only, and poses no medical risk. The worst side effect is that drinking large amounts of CS w...

Re: Vaccines

Rick, I'm the last guy on the planet to not appreciate the availability of modern medications. Heck, I wouldn't be alive without the year and a half of antibiotics I took to defeat severe, late-stage Lyme Disease. But Big Pharma is out of control! It's constantly looking for new markets for new dru...

Re: why i stopped talking in tongues

Two hour-long videos are a bit much to watch, but I watched a little of the second video. It seems you have got it correct from what I saw. The few churches I have been to that practiced tongues didn't have a clue what they were doing. They treated tongues as a sideshow. As you mention early in the ...

Re: The first cause thing

I like peter kreeft's first cause argument best because it brings up the principle of sufficient reason. http://www.peterkreeft.com/topics/first-cause.htm If there is no first cause, then the universe is like a great chain with many links; each link is held up by the link above it, but the whole ch...

Re: Vaccines

From what I have read about vaccines in many sources on the web, the risks far outweigh any possible benefits they give. The facts are that most immunizations have not been proven to do anything to stop the illness they are supposed to fight. The only ones that work actually make you sick, like givi...

Re: Through the Lens: Evolution, "What About Transitional Fo

Re: Design theories... In Young Earth Creation it is believed that Earth is not billions of years old, but rather only 6,000 up to most 100,000 years old. This clashes with what we understand through scientific investigation of nature. So much so, a common sense approach (sorry Jac) would look to o...
