    Myth: Humans were hunter-gatherers first, farmers later

    I don't much care about OT food laws. To me, bacon solves every culinary problem. Pork in this country is not unclean, unless its from feral animals, which is illegal. So far, I have no health issues from food that I eat. I avoid many things because I just don't like them, sushi for example...

    Iraqi Horror: Proposed Age of Consent Law Shocks the World (9 years of age)

    Mohamed's example is exactly why Iraq wants to change the age of "consent". How a 9 year old can give consent is a mystery to me. How any democracy can allow Muslims to settle in their country is also a mystery to me. Still, the West long ago forsook God. God has returned the favour.

    Are you a body with a soul, or a soul with a body?

    The spirit is the part that interacts with God. The soul is the organ of expression. It includes mind, emotion and will. The soul should serve the spirit, not self. The body enables us to carry out the desires of the soul. If the soul is governed by our spirit, the desires will be of God. The...

    I Wasn't Really Feeling That Old, Until... (What Makes You Feel Old?)

    I'm no longer asked if I qualify for a seniors discount. It's assumed.

    Understanding God’s election

    So the elect could perish? Makes no sense to me. Believe as you wish. I don't agree. That's fine.

    Myth: Humans were hunter-gatherers first, farmers later

    Peter's vision puts an end to dietary laws. Also, Acts 15:29 and Colossians 2:16. The "unclean birds" are a symbol of evil spirits, not literal birds. As soon as you put people under one law, such as dietary, you are on the slippery slope to putting people under all law. That is in direct...

    The Slow Motion Destruction of Donald Trump Has Begun

    If lying politicians were locked up, the prisons would be overflowing.

    Understanding God’s election

    Yes, Ephesians 1:11 can be taken to mean that God chooses without the knowledge and consent of individuals. However, Romans 8:29 adds the idea that God knew who would receive Christ. The problem with the concept of election solely by God's choice is that it contradicts His word. "The Lord is...

    Why does god have a weird way of communicating?

    God could have wiped the whole human race and started again. Instead, He saved Noah and his family. It was not that long after the flood that mankind rebelled again by trying to build the tower of Babel. God did not destroy them that time either. God chose to start a new race an entirely...

    Understanding God’s election

    How about Romans 8:29 & 30? God predestines according to foreknowledge, according to Paul. I am not dogmatic about this, but it seems to me that God knows who would choose Jesus if they had the opportunity. We do not. That's why we must preach the gospel to all mankind. One day, we will find out...

    Russia preparing for war

    Who said anything about America going to war because they are not perfect? The reason America and the UK should defend Ukraine is because they made certain commitments in turn for Ukraine virtually disarming. At the time of independence, Ukraine had the third largest nuclear arsenal in the...

    Myth: Humans were hunter-gatherers first, farmers later

    You can't argue from silence. Most of the Bible focuses on the Middle East. There is nothing about Europeans, Americans or Asians. God informs us of what we need to know. When it comes to ancient history, science is way behind on its research. They can't even get dates correct. The Bible has...
