    Is There A Universal Truth?

    What debt did the Israelites owe that caused them to be enslaved as a people? What debt did the many Celtic, and Germanic slaves incur prior to being enslaved by the Romans? I believe the word slave in the Bible is not as precise in meaning as you contend. It is true that the Bible does not use...

    Right to NOT be forced to express against your faith.

    Seems to me Paul petitioned the Emperor not because he was saying he was better than those that opposed him and brought false charges against him but because that was the most effective solution to the problem. Why should other Christians not do the same? If the Constitution recognizes that a...

    Chief end of man

    There is nothing a Christian can do to glorify God. God is not glorified by us. He is intrinsically glorified. Our purpose is to reflect the glory that already belongs to God apart from anything we might do. The only way we are surely able to reflect that glory is by endeavoring to, as best...

    Would it benefit to deem S.F a gay/queer city?

    AFAIK cities have no sexual preferences.

    Australia to Ban Nazi Symbols

    Just as Obama flew his personal flag instead of the hammer and sickle.

    Having some questions and concerns about God's will and justice system.

    One cannot repair a relationship that was not one's relationship. Only the parties involved can do that. The party that has broken that relationship is the only one that can repair the relationship an outsider cannot cause that to happen. As for definitions, I know of no definition that could...

    Tech Exec Fired for Assigned by God Pronoun.

    Offends me? Where did you get that idea from? The fact people will be inconsistent and irrational in the way they define terms is just part of human nature, not something to get offended by.

    Hypothetical: If Hillary never had an unsecure email server but Trump did, would Trump would be prosecuted?

    As Schumer said ""Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,"

    Tech Exec Fired for Assigned by God Pronoun.

    Why should they be called preferred pronouns if they apply to others rather than to oneself? Shouldn't they be called a requested pronoun? I prefer to call myself me or I those are my preferred pronouns. I request others to call me he or him when speaking of me to others and that others call me...

    Tech Exec Fired for Assigned by God Pronoun.

    Who is or is not a jerk is a very subjective opinion.

    Tech Exec Fired for Assigned by God Pronoun.

    It certainly is always easiest to simply go along to get along and not rock the boat. Just as using cliches is easier than putting one's own thoughts into more original words. Why would he refer to himself in the third person? Wouldn't any reasonable person consider I/Me to be their preferred...

    Australia to Ban Nazi Symbols

    If the government bans a symbol those that are inclined to be members of a hate group will simply find a new one to display. At least when they use a symbol that people universally recognize and are generally disgusted by, it is harder for the hate group to recruit and indoctrinate the gullible...

    Having some questions and concerns about God's will and justice system.

    You are making a sacrifice not a reparation. Your brother repaying you would be reparation.

    Chris Christie Enters the Race

    Where was he in 2016? Christie was fawning over Trump once he saw the writing on the wall. Now he wants credit for kicking Trump while he is down. His characterization, which is spot on about Trump is also spot on about Biden, as well as to one extent or another the vast majority of politicians...

    Having some questions and concerns about God's will and justice system.

    1) I couldn't see how it would be just for people to live forever in paradise after sinning their whole life long. Then I realized that Christianity is not about what is just but about forgiveness and mercy. I assume that God extends that forgiveness and mercy to all and that as long as one...

    Dems give Marjorie Taylor a standing ovation

    I don't know what you think i was referring to but I surely do not think Fetterman is mentally challenged because he had a stroke. I am quite familiar with strokes. My family has a history of them. You seem to be contending that Fetterman's stroke is responsible for the moronic ideas he has held...

    Australia to Ban Vaping

    I bet the black marketeers are loving this. Ever heard of prohibition or the war on drugs? Banning alcohol and marijuana among other drugs? Seems to me that the rationale is exactly the same. The government protecting their wayward subjects from their bad habits. When does the ban on candy and...
