    "Fully Vaccinated"

    Back when Pfizer was running their trials for the COVID vaccine, they defined the term "fully vaccinated" as two doses plus two weeks. I believe this was a very intentional choice, and I will demonstrate why in this thread. To demonstrate how we can rather easily manipulate the data in favor of...

    Vaccine mandates and passports - a complete failure

    So in the last week or so, I've personally seen dozens of fully vaccinated, sometimes boosted people testing positive for COVID. In fact, nearly everyone that I know that's tested positive recently is at least fully vaccinated. There have been outbreaks on fully vaccinated cruise ships...

    Arguing with scripture

    Have you ever heard someone say (or maybe you've said it yourself), "You're not arguing with me. You're arguing with scripture." I used to say foolish things like that all the time. It sounds great. It sounds Spiritual. It sounds final. It's the trump card of trump cards to "win" any debate...

    The carnality of offense

    "I'm offended". How many times in our lives have we heard that statement? Or perhaps a better question would be, how many times in our lives have we made that statement? It has often been said that offense is not given, it's taken, but I believe that statement is only half true. Offense most...

    Conviction vs. Condemnatioon

    I'd like to hear people's thoughts on what the difference is between conviction and condemnation. A lot of people like to throw around the scripture, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit". Now I agree that...

    Get Real

    Back when I was the youth leader at our church, our youth group came up with the slogan "Get Real" that you see above. The idea behind it was simple; there are a good many Christians who put up a front and hide behind a facade that they're perfectly OK. They always do the right thing. They...

    My Love for God is unconditional...

    I chose the title of this thread because I wanted to talk about something I find... interesting. I've heard many Christians say things like, "No matter what God does to me, I'll still Love Him."
