    Why do some Catholic leaders seem irreligious? And what is the data on Catholic Priests and other leaders who lost faith during or after retiring?

    Fair enough. Just been seeing so much slander directed at my denomination that I can get a little defensive about it

    With the SBC, though, it seems mostly relegated to seminaries and local churches. Apparently, the DOJ dropped all sex abuse related charges against the SBC.

    Seperating baptists and ana-baptists

    Well, a lot of early Baptists were Calvinists due to coming out of the Separatist movement, who were similar to Puritans, hence Calvnism

    was my baptism valid

    It would vary based on church, but most Baptist churches require immersion. It should be fine in your case, but I'd talk to a pastor. He should be able to tell you if re-baptism is necessary.

    My view of Calvary Chapel. Your thoughts.

    I generally like Calvary Chapel. My only concern with them is their Moses model of leadership

    So Tired of "The Left" and "The Right" Thinking.

    I guess I am technically left wing because I am a populist who sympathizes with the working class, and I think Georgism is a good idea. However, I tend to lean right wing when it comes to culture and social issues.

    Baptism question

    Would an Anabaptist church accept baptisms done in a Baptist church as valid, or would a convert from the Baptist denomination need to be baptized before joining the Anabaptists?

    Independent Baptists

    What are Baptists like in the UK? Do they differ from Baptists in America?

    Historic Premmillennialism and Israel?

    Where does historic premillennialism stand on Israel? I consider myself premillennialism but on the fence between dispensationalism and historic premillennialism. I say I am closer to the latter as I think dispensationalism gets too caught up in details that may or may not be true. I don't...

    Independent Baptists

    So, I looking into the Independent Baptist denomination as I am kinda disillusioned with the the Southern Baptist Convention right now. While I like that the SBC is big tent conservative denomination, I am a bit concerned about its future such as falling back into theological liberalism and the...

    Southern Baptist adding Nicene Creed to Baptist Faith and Message

    An argument I have heard is that most lay Christians don't really understand the Trinity, and think adding the Nicene Creed would help alleviate that. Some would also say we don't believe the Nicene Creed because of that part about "one baptism for the remission of sins."

    The Social Conservatives Safe House (4)

    I'm really only socially conservative with abortion. I otherwise couldn't care less about social issues and the culture war if I didn't think the left went too far with it.

    The Social Conservatives Safe House (4)

    So, there doesn't seem to be a good social conservative option this election. Trump's probably the closest, but even he's not really a social conservative.

    My bros and sisters who are voting 3rd party, why are you voting 3rd party over Kamala and Trump?

    I'm open to a third party or candidate, but I haven't found one I can actually support yet.

    UK will extradite Americans for social media posts

    I don't know about racist comments. Sure, no one should say racist things, but I think arresting someone over racist comments would be easily abused. Is there a difference between complaining about Mexicans stealing jobs and someone trying to incite the Klan to go lynch black people? If you...
