    Carl's Jr. to opposition: "Get a life".

    Back up the sarcasm with some common sense. If I KNEW it was going to pop on screen I would have. By the time I found the rmote it was 2 commercials later.

    The Beast

    Much of what we teach as "history" comes from these early scholars. One cannot claim some of thier writings as historial facts and denounce others as fiction. If we ignored the writings of everyone, Christian and non christian, who made references to Jesus then we would lose much of our ancient...

    Born Again vs. Other Christians

    I was really offended by the pope comment. I have a great respect for any man who holds that position and I had a special affection for John Paul. The comment was made to my husband who was "on the fence" at that time and it gave him a negative impression of Christians. The Lord has really been...

    Born Again vs. Other Christians

    I recently overheard a born again christian refer to the deceased pope as the "antichrist". This individual believes that Catholics aren't saved. I have even heard my own pastor make negative references about catholics. I go to a non denominational (born again?) christian church and was raised...

    Carl's Jr. to opposition: "Get a life".

    We don't get a commercial programming guide. If I knew it was going to be on I would NOT have watched the show. And american idol is important because it's one of the few shows on TV that is (was) smut and violence free.

    Georgia smoking ban

    I used to work as a bartender in a bar that allowed smoking (illegally). I became pregnant and asked the smokers to please go outside. Even with most going outside there was still smoke in the air when I came in and some didn't care and continued to smoke. There was alot of opposition to my...

    Carl's Jr. to opposition: "Get a life".

    I could care less if everyone gets off on her 12 yr old boy body gyrating all over the tv. My problem is that I was not given the choice to prevent my kids from seeing it. That is the big argument that is used against TV censorship. If you don't like it, don't watch it. Well in our family, the...

    Scientists hail stem cell breakthrough

    First off I have to agree with the posts that claim most right to life people are hypocrites in regards to stem cell research. Many pro life individuals either turn a blind eye to IVF or have used IVF. One cannot have it both ways. However, I wonder how the proponents of stem cell research...

    Teacher Marries Student She Raped.

    One might say that the brainwashing he received in his formative years is still continuing rather than it being a "loving relationship". A child that undergoes that kind of manipulation and trauma will cling to the perpetrator, even into adulthood. Sad. Regarding the age issue, somewhere in the...

    Carl's Jr. to opposition: "Get a life".

    I would agree that it's no big deal except it was played during American Idol, which is one of the few shows I let my kids watch. My kids all commented on it and needless to say, I was mortified. It's like the begining of a bad porn film. They should only play it late at night during adult...

    Proof?

    For some it is hard to see Jesus as real until you can understand the events of the time period and see that there are other accounts of him. I took philosophy and art history at the same time and it really had an impact on my faith. Jesus became more real to me after I saw ancient art and...

    Islam: The Paradise (dschanna ?) ?

    The idea that all men are concerned with sex and all women are concerned with vanity is incorrect and as a woman, Christian or Muslim, it should be an insult. These 2 things are also of the flesh and both are sins. What use would the spirit have for vanity and fornication? Why would the reward...

Thanks to science we can now dispel the myths about fetal development that allow abortions to be legal. Very soon the people will not be able to plead ignorance...
