Faith is based on facts, not feelings, opinions or speculation.

Try getting a level about 100 km long and then check the curvature of the earth.

According to Wall Street journal and other sources, Yaha Sinwar has stated that he welcomes civilian casualties as it puts pressure on Israel and creates sympathy for the Hamas cause. As an aside, it's an "interesting" name - Sin-War. Much of the world media reports Hamas death figures...

Welcome.

As a natural introvert, (melancholic) I know your pain. I've learned a lot over my 50 years in Jesus. One thing was that isolation is bearable (for me at least) but not good. I saw it for what it was when I had a Weber kettle BBQ. While all the heat beads were in the kettle, they all glowed and...

I'm 73. My wife and I moved to a retirement village recently. The people are friendly (I know a few from decades ago), there is an active church here (5 minutes walk) any many facilities such as a gym, outdoor bowling and a woodworking shop. There is an onsite doctor's surgery, hairdresser and...

I wonder how well the pacifist approach would have worked in Israel in 1948, Ukraine 2022 or Europe in 1939. War is indeed the domain of the secular. But God is not merely a spectator in human affairs. I've read eyewitness accounts of miracles during the Israel/Arab war of 1948. The well known...

You are wrong on a number of counts. That's fine, you do not know my complete background. I was born in London, 1951. WW2 was very much fresh in the memories of my relatives who had endured the blitz. Some rationing was still in place. London was still being rebuilt. My father served in the RN...

I suggest that you reconsider the false narrative concerning the crusades. While religion was invoked to encourage people to join the army, the real issue was that Islam had declared war on Europe. The crusades were an attempt to resist the invasion of Europe by Muslim armies. In that age, there...

Your eternal future does not depend on you or what you do. If that was God's standard, no one would be saved. You are saved because of what Jesus did. All God requires of us is to receive Jesus and what He has done for us on the cross, His death and His resurrection. God only saves sinners. The...

There is a difference between being assertive and being aggressive. There is nothing wrong with getting what you pay for, and service is part of that. I don't know what the male equivalent of a "Karen" is, but I could be described that way. You don't have to be rude. I was totally introverted...

It is important also to have fellowship with other believers. I'm no fan of organised religion and there are few fellowships that are not tainted with religiosity. Ask God to show you where to go.

It's very simple: bad news sells. Good news does not.

The e trike is amazing. However, I have to forget everything I know about cycling. It's very different. The trike is stable so leaning into a corner achieves nothing. It has to be steered. The front wheel can go to angles that would see a two wheeler overbalance. There are some useful You Tubes...

And make sure your health insurance is paid up.

Your first statement is wrong. Mankind has an inbuilt knowledge of right and wrong. Romans 2:14-16 "Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. So they show that the work of the law is...

Definitely blue.

I bought a rather expensive electric trike. Today, it was assembled by an expert, who hails from Israel. We had an interesting conversation about events in the Middle East. The trike is huge. It is far harder to ride than I expected. It's much different from two wheels, that's for sure. The...

My main concern is how wide the track is at the back. It will make passing parked cars interesting. I avoid the road where I can but that's not always possible.
