I notice we are getting a new generation of posters/members here. Guess it is the way of things. Mayhaps the oldtimers have lost interest? Or, simply tired of discussing/debating the same few subjects day after day, month after month, year after year. I know I get tired of it, but, on occasion, will jump in just to remember what it felt like to actually believe discussions/debates where Truth is inserted might make a difference for some.

Reminds me of the Scripture:

Ecclesiastes
1



1[FONT=&] .) The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.[/FONT]
2[FONT=&] .) Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.[/FONT]
3[FONT=&] .) What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?[/FONT]
4[FONT=&] .) One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.[/FONT]
5[FONT=&] .) The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose.[/FONT]
6[FONT=&] .) The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits.[/FONT]
7[FONT=&] .) All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.[/FONT]
8[FONT=&] .) All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.[/FONT]
9[FONT=&] .) The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.[/FONT]
10[FONT=&] .) Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.[/FONT]
11[FONT=&] .) There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.[/FONT]
so true! One thing I take away from that passage is that human societies don't tend to learn from the past, we often do the same things over again.



I thunk it ties in well with this passage

ECCLESIASTES 9:13 I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me.
ECCLESIASTES 9:14 There was a little city with few men in it, and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it.
ECCLESIASTES 9:15 But there was found in it a poor, wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man.
ECCLESIASTES 9:16 But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man's wisdom is despised
and his words are not heard.

Sometimes I come here with a real hunger for a conversation/discussion of Scripture that is actually new, or, at least, not beaten to death by years of discontent...........

Generally, I end up just getting my on-line KJV up and reading to myself. Thing is, even if I (or someone else) comes up with a new Scripture/idea for a discussion, some folks turn/twist it right back into a discussion of the same old same old.

:(

Good afternoon all....well thanks to whoever turned the fan in our Florida direction... I am basking in wonderful cool crisp temp of 50 degrees right now with a long sleeve top on and cold enough to go and make myself a nice hot pot of coffee....oh I love it a chance to feel cold and put on clothes to keep warm.....Yes!!! Now if I could just have some of the white stuff to look at for a while it would be cold heaven.....



This will have to do for now....ah.... better....
