    Mennonite Pastor Jailed for Helping Lesbian Flee

    You left out the multiple expert witnesses that testified Jenkins was likely abusing the child. After unsupervised visits with Jenkins, the child began to touch, talk about wanting to die, exhibit anti-social behavior, and other behavioral abnormalities consistent with someone who has been...

    Hearts of Men

    Leadership has nothing to do with someone being a better person than someone else. My boss at work isn't my boss because he's of some "noble blood" and inherently a better person than me. He's my boss because the owner of the company put him in charge of me. Likewise, God has put men in charge...

    Part of Obamacare I'm not understanding

    Employer Spending is an irrelevant statistic to healthcare costs as whole. Just because an employer is paying less doesn't mean other people aren't paying more, such as the employee or taxpayers in general, which would be the case if the employer is getting tax credits. I don't have insurance...

    Consistency

    The Bible supports self-defense, and especially supports rescuing the oppressed from the wicked which would include deadly force if necessary. God is most definitely in favor of the second amendment.

    Vegetarianism/Veganism

    Vegetarianism is not the healthier choice. Humans are primarily designed to eat meat as they have a relatively short digestive tract. Herbivores have digestive tracts many times longer, as a ratio of body length to digest tract length, than humans and other meat eaters. Developmental...

    Scientists name extinct lizard after President Obama

    I am very much in support of the practice of associating of lying communists with lizards. Van Jones, Harry Reid, and Nancy Pelosi need a lizard named after them too.

    In the beginning God created sin free vegetarians.

    If people were "sin-free" before the "curse" but aren't now, then why did Adam and Eve sin? Also, Abel ate meat and sacrificed the fat portions and God accepted him, while Cain was a vegetarian and he sacrificed vegetables and God rejected him. Sounds like God didn't have any problem with meat...

    McDonald's employees want $15/hour

    Typical lazy and greedy liberal. If you want to be paid $15/hr, then how about you go and earn it? Better yet, go start your own businesses and prove to all of us how easy it is to run a fast food restaurant that pays cashiers $15/hr. What? You can't afford to pay unskilled labors such a...

    McDonald's employees want $15/hour

    Nope. Here in America we have this thing called freedom and liberty. If someone offers you a job for $7 an hour and you don't want it, then don't take it. I've turned down plenty of jobs because they didn't pay enough. There is also the option of starting your own business if you can't find...

    Political Issues Are Killing Evangelicals

    I was not saying that Mormons are Christians, I was saying that Mitt Romney would have supported Biblical values much more so than Barack Obama does as Obama doesn't really support them at all. Again, you're purposely using statements out of context. Here is the "Black children were better off...

    Political Issues Are Killing Evangelicals

    Mormons believe that murder is wrong, sexual immorality is wrong, that marriage is fundamental part of society, and in religious freedom, which is more than can be said for Barack Obama. He supports partial birth abortions, which is when a baby is partial delivered, stabbed in the back of it's...

    Political Issues Are Killing Evangelicals

    I agree that neither party is perfect, though the Republican party is much, much, much closer to Biblical values than the Democrat party. The solution is for people to get involved. Voting on election day is great, but that's not enough. Even in the primary season we have the choice between very...

    Political Issues Are Killing Evangelicals

    Have you ever read the Bible? Christianity is absolutely about politics. As I already pointed out earlier in the thread, virtually all of the history in the Bible is about politics and political figures. Moses and Aaron were political figures God used to free Israel from a government that was...

    Libyan Extremists threaten mutilation and death for seized ‘homosexuals’

    So much Islamophobia in this thread, disgusting. Why can't people learn to be tolerant of other people's religion? Stop trying to force your morals on other people, especially people who aren't even in the same country as you.

    Zion's War On Christendom

    What exactly are these "bigotries against gentiles" that you accuse Israel of? I personally don't buy the argument that the "I will bless those who bless Israel, and curse those who curse Israel" still applies today, but Israel is a free and democratic country who is basically just the victim of...
