Also, you can turn on the facility of the computer to read anything (everything) to you. That is found under CONTROL PANEL/EASE of ACCESS. You may have to dig into DISPLAY OPTIONS, or some such worded thing like that, but it can be done. There are some really fascinating options available in...

If you can get it into MS WORD format, the WORD program will read it aloud to you. I have it on my computer, so I do that some of the time.... reading along while Word also reads it to me. It's a little bit choppy, but not too bad.

After reading it three other times, it is getting kind of natural to comprehend the way he wrote. But, I still have to admit that I don't understand how he comes to some of his conclusions.... and none of what I have read has yet persuaded me that "Calvinism" is the proper theology to follow...

Perhaps my statement was not clearly written. I understand and agree with your need to defend yourselves. What I meant was that, hopefully, President Trump's words will convince the Chinese Army to back down from their violent attacks. I am sorry if I did not convey that clearly in my other post.

¡ Oye, eso es bastante Bueno !

That's what I said.... Some are convinced they know what others should do.

And what is that "trampling?" Some people think it is doing what they don't do. Many Christians would place you in Hell for drinking, smoking, gambling, wearing the wrong clothes, or dancing. They seem to be certain they know everyone else's heart, and how God knows them.

"I'm not sure I understand everything about what I think I know." ???

"Wherever ya go, there ya are." ???

"The definition of Insanity is to keep doing what you have always done, expecting the outcome to be different." ???

The way the Bible expresses such concern, you might better have asked: "Where will MY eternal abode be?" I think we are told to worry about how we live before deciding how others should live.

I wonder how The Rich Man recognized Abraham in Jesus' parable? (and he had never even seen Abraham in hiis lifetime.)
