At times I feel like I missed out because I never really got to know my extended family (older generation) on my Dad's side because we moved from the east coast to the west when I was 6. My dad spent a lot of time up in Mass when he was a kid and when I was little he still had a couple of...

I really don't know much about him other than his service as a Minuteman. I'm fortunate enough to have (even before sites like Ancestry.com, etc) a decent family tree partially because my father's family remained in the same area for so long and partially because one of my dad's uncles was town...

That's because these days it's the norm rather than the exception.

My great (I don't remember how many "greats" land in there) grandfather was a minuteman in the Massachusetts militia. Albeit I haven't been there in around 35 years, the old family homestead is up around the Mass/Vt border. Up until my Grandfather, the family had been in that area for almost...

By all means, state lotteries are nothing but a huge tax increase on the poor and middle class that the poor and middle class voted in themselves.

It seems that in a lot of areas the popularity of door to door trick or treating is dwindling since lots of schools, youth organizations, churches, and some large malls are throwing big events on Halloween that are both indoors and considered to be safer than begging for candy from random...

I think it may just be tradition but I think that many assume that Jesus was a Nazarite (like Sampson) which would have meant that his hair was never cut.

If you have reason to believe that someone is a fraud (real evidence) you need to take it up with site staff, making baseless accusations in public will only get you in trouble. If you don't want alerts every time someone replies to one of your posts you need to change the settings on YOUR...

Albeit it wasn't rowdy kids that broke our TV, our TV broke when I was still a toddler and we didn't have a TV in the house until I was a Junior on High School. As a result both my sister and I read a lot so when I took competency exams at the end of sixth grade my writing and reading...

Here in town we have a major throughway (55mph) with an intersection right at the bottom of a long hill. The acceleration lane for traffic merging from the right runs the full length of the hill yet persons insist on merging right in front of full speed traffic at the lower part of the hill...

Hidden sin maintains it's power in it's secrecy and the shame that comes from it. Your best chance at victory over habitual sin is accountability with a brother face to face within your church community rather than maintaining the secrecy by seeking accountability with unknown strangers online...

I'm curious to know where your information came from since everything that I can find places the median income in OK in the $50,000 range. Even the Wiki page that breaks that income down by county only lists 7 counties where the median income is above $60,000. Based on Pew Research formulas...
