Threads aren't normally deleted~they go back a few years...actually it seems most everything has been said somewhere; I'll occasionally use the "search" to find an old thread to read something. Do you post at a site that automatically deletes/closes old threads?

We lose about 165,000 Christians each year who are killed for their faith. How do you explain that?
........
The main reason that I will be carrying is because of situations like this... Larry
Since virtually all people are irrational, demonized or violent, where does that leave you to love anyone ?
.....
165000?? We lose 10 times that many every year in the usa for lack of knowledge (of the truth) - will you alert anyone ?
....
..including the reason/cause of the clmbine incident, and every other one like it in the last 20 years... dare you stand for truth and bring it into the open ? (p.s. it is not permitted to discuss on this forum)

Go to Amazon, and search for the following:
Shooting Back: The Right and Duty of Self-defense By Charl Van Wyk
Read that book, and you'll get it. Our Second amendment is God Breathed.
The irrational fear of guns is why the Gun-grabbing Liberals are still in office and our Gun rights are being stolen by the minute.
Praise the Lord and pass the ammo!

Not everyone who is against gun violence is politically liberal.
I have read Van Wyks' argument, but am not convinced to carry a gun.
That said, I'm also convinced that it is not for me to legislate whether or not law-abiding citizens should or should not carry a gun, sword, or anything else that could be used against another person.
In Friendship,

I'm sorry to hear that. Originally Posted by Elsa That said, I'm also convinced that it is not for me to legislate whether or not law-abiding citizens should or should not carry a gun, sword, or anything else that could be used against another person.
I'm glad to hear that.

somewhere in the Gospel Yahshua said simply "whatever you collect and value , your heart will [start to] follow it"
..
and
Corrie Ten Boom put it simply "hold everything loosely, with an open hand, ready to part with it"
..
and
Jewish Jewels wonderfully announced that
in the
Hebrew language there is/was no word of ownership of anything - not even ones self...
everything is and belongs to Yhvh
and nothing is yours to keep to yourself - it is all to give away as Yhvh decrees and sees fit.
(so, likewise,abiding in Yhvh's Life, which is the only Life, you have no property nor things to protect or keep in selfishness)

Nationalism is a funny-sort of critter...
