I posted these two pictures by Rembrandt several years ago, they have always fascinated me. The first was painted when he was 26 years old and at the heights of his talents and abilities. Th second is the last picture he ever painted just before his death. I wrote a poem: Gone is the...

Great post - Thank You!

You have certainly been through the storms, one after another. You have also written a beautiful testimony to God's faithfulness, but also a testimony to your own faith. This is heart warming and encouraging for us. God wants us to bring our pain and sorrows to Him. Life can be incredibly...

...you're hyperopic?

I am guilty of your accusation...

I find it a little amazing that someone who makes sound arguments and good judgements would begin a post with your first sentence. It is just as easy to discount any other doctrine as it is to discount perceived errors in Catholic doctrine. I am not catholic but it breaks my heart to hear...

If you go to church looking for perfection, you need to be perfect yourself.

I believe these are some of the most profound words Paul wrote: 1 Corinthians 7:14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband Don't evangelize, demonstrate. Keep on demonstrating. Don't quit...

I have learned a very important lesson about this issue; "...you will know them by their fruit."

Science has already proven that time as we experience it, does not exist. As one approaches the speed of light time begins to slow until it stops altogether. (Some propose that if you exceed the speed of light time will begin to run backward). Light also begins to bend back upon itself...

I have read history and I fully understand and agree with your feelings. I recognize two "Churches". One is the man-made church with its ugliness AND its beauty. One cannot read history without also recognizing this duality. In the mist of the very real evil, there are acts of beauty and...

Welcome to CC Thatcritergirl. I am glad you are here and look forward to learning more. Myself, I try to be apolitical as much as possible, but that is my choice. All nature of critters are welcome here! :)

Only time can be my witness. Pay attention to independent sources. The truth is slowly leaking out.

I do not deny Rome was evil, but Rome did not kill millions of it's citizens for the benefit and profit of a few. Who is really evil?

We were warned….1 Samuel 8: 10 Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking him for a king. 11 He said, “This is what the king who will reign over you will claim as his rights: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots and horses, and they will run in...

Another view... Hellbound Train A Texas cowboy lay down on a barroom floor, Having drunk so much he could drink no more; So he fell asleep with a troubled brain To dream that he rode on a hell-bound train. The engine with murderous blood was damp And was brilliantly lit with a brimstone lamp...
