    I'm interested in going on the bushwalk. When is it taking place?

    bushwalking

    I loved bushwalking when I lived in the country. Don't really know any places to go around Sydney, but I'm planning to check it out in the near future.

    Any Runners?

    I agree. However in the city it's not always that easy to find places to run. It can be dangerous too in busy traffic. Also if you're paying for a gym membership, you might as well use it ;) When I lived in the country I had the perfect gravel running track above the beach. It had hills...

    Any Runners?

    I run twice a week on the treadmill for recreation although now I'm also doing it as training for basketball. I do 5km in around 22 mins. Started running a few years ago to help quit smoking and enjoyed it so much I took it up as a hobby. I love the feeling of being fit, and have found it...

    Should Christian churches and organisations have the right to sack naturists?

    Yes, if they insist on promoting it within the church then action needs to be taken. As I've said in the past, if you want to frolic around at some private location then that's your business, however it's inappropriate to bring it to church...and completely inappropriate to attend church with...

    Should adultery be constituted as a sex crime by the legal system?

    Neither does anyone else here, but that doesn't mean it should be a criminal offence. Can't argue with this. A couple of non sequiturs. If things aren't rosy between two consenting adults, it does not follow that it's necessary for courts to become involved. Children are punished for lying...

    Should adultery be constituted as a sex crime by the legal system?

    Very true, perhaps I should have created a new thread. Nevertheless I'm sure tgg will come along and explain himself soon enough :)

    It's quiet a little too quiet?

    I'm back. Have been away for a while, busy with work, getting out there and basically just enjoying life, but miss I this place :)

    Should adultery be constituted as a sex crime by the legal system?

    Ridiculous idea. A liberal country such as Australia would never accept a law such as this being imposed on their personal lives, no matter how immoral most people think it is, especially Christians. tgg says he's a liberal in the other thread, but then posts this and another thread quoting...

    Christian ganged up on.

    No thanks "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet". Matthew 7:6

    New Liberal Leader

    I've just finished reading Tony's book 'Battlelines' and I think he would make a great Prime Minister. He's intelligent, charismatic, and has a good moral compass. He's a conservative leader who respects the institutions and society that has made us what we are. As already mentioned he has...

    Hi people. Don't know if anyone remembers me round here. Can see a few old faces. I have to say Avatar is an absolutely amazing movie. Great CGI combined with a good story. I watched it in 3D a week ago and for three hours was completely immersed in another world. There is definitely a...

    Michael Guglielmucci- fraud

    That is a great response. This pastor has hurt a lot of people who supported him, along with the reputation of other Christians and the Church. Such a great song too. It would have been a hit without having to make up this incredible lie. It's difficult to feel sorry for him right now, however...

    Pop Star Pastor Lied About Cancer!

    There was already a thread on this, at the top of the page. :doh:

    Hillsong Church, Gloria Jeans - linked to abuse claims.

    Makes it clearer which post I am responding to. Everything in the transcript is already mentioned in the rest of your post. But how is that linked to the church? Political leaders quite often open new buildings. This has been going on for some time. Mark Latham was also sent an invitation...

    Hillsong Church, Gloria Jeans - linked to abuse claims.

    What does one's political party icon have to do with this? Don't tell me, the Liberals were in on it too?
