Bob, to take your analogy to the ridiculous extreem, are you saying Christians should sleep with prostitutes so that we are not seen to be boycotting them? Because that would be condescending. Your argument makes no sense.

I believe that it is. As parents we scold our children when they do something wrong because we love them, and expect them to apologize for their misdeed. Think of a boycott as sending a child to 'time out'. When that child returns and apologizes (repents), they are then embraced.

Sounds like an Atheist playing pranks.

I completely agree with this. However, so many of the shares are owned institutionally (through funds) that we need to lobby the funds as well.

Given the market share in some catagories... it is difficult. Yes we do try to avoid these brands however. Actually Kerrie, I am trying to do something. Here, in the books I've published, in my investment reccomendations, and in direct letters to some of the more flagrant offenders...

You write as if companies have a right to my business, and that I am depriving them of my consumerism. No one company has a right to our loyalty. If they are behaving badly, in a way that directly offends Christian morals (and me), why on earth would I support them. The best way I can 'love...

The AFA has lifted the Boycott of Ford because they have begun to abide by the 2006 agreement not to be active advocates of the homosexual lifestyle. http://www.afa.net/emails/transform.asp?x=ford_031008&s=browser&y=2008&m=03 Personally, I'm doubtful that Ford will stick to the agreement (with...

As of 2006, eight medical organizations recognize that abortion raises a woman's risk for breast cancer, independently of the risk of delaying the birth of a first child (a secondary effect that all experts already acknowledge). An additional medical organization, the Association of American...

If there is misinformation afoot, how do you know it is coming from the right and not the left?

A – B – C – D… or BC – AD How many Lilly’s of the Fecund Lady, Hath been trodden down to make her path? 1,2,3,4 … such an unpleasant math By stamping out the earliest flowers And prancing on for many hours What hath sown this carefree dancer...

Nothing wrong with acts which, as you say, bring one closer to God. Fasting, prayer... but the concept of allocating other 'saints' supererogation - which is the theological underpinning - is simply unbiblical. If I'm wrong - please give me the verses on which you base your dispute.

Didn't Mary Poppins say this? Seriously, I write this not out of disdain for the Catholic church – for I love all fellow Christians and members of the bride of Christ – but as a warning against a specific doctrine which is itself un-biblical.... From the depths and lofty heights He catches...

I agree. Alas, they bind heavy burdens hard to bear... BTW, Not sure how this happened - I did not "Report" this post - I actually agree with it - but I got a confirmation message from "Chrisbot" indicating my "report had been recieved" I work from a laptop on a train & perhaps the wires got...

:prayer: The whole idea behind vouchers is that - we pay once for our children's education in the form of property/sales tax... if the state will not provide an acceptable education for Christians, then they should provide education vouchers so that our children can attend the school of our...

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=58130 This is so scary - it came up as the point of the sermon at Church today - "Mom", "Dad", and positive portrayals of family banned by new law in California (and effectivly in all public schools across the country because publishers...

Diesl, Dag, How is it that 3 committed Christians can look at the same set of verses (prayerfully & carefully), and come to different conclusions? I have to say I went into this study (see also my study on War: http://foru.ms/t5610371) with a completely open mind, willing to go wherever...

Well believe it or not Post #1 was not so much about a right to choose, as it is about the righteousness of that choice. (See the last verse). Do you see a difference between these two things.
