    Islam in the Western World

    Lot of truth in the OP... Radical Islam is totally incompatible with the "western" way of life. They have no inclination to assimilate to our way of life, and given enough "authority", they will force "us" to adhere to their oppressive ideology....

    Was US Immigration Originally, Favorable?

    It also has been limited or stopped entirely on several occasions in the past. The idea is for immigrants to come to the US, assimilate, become AMERICANS, regardless of what/where they came from... There has to be some sort of limitation on it, otherwise we would be absolutely over-run with...

    the bible

    I agree with @ResidentAlien .... it doesn't have to be complex.... being a Christian is simply being a disciple/follower of Jesus. Read scripture to learn what he taught people, and do your best to be like that... love God, and do your best to do what He commanded for us... love your...

    the bible

    It depends on what you are looking for.... ease of reading, or accurate word for word translations... There are a few translations that are easier to read, and are considered accurately translated.... NLT is one of those... they are written in commonly used English, in a thought for thought...

    In memory of Shittim...

    He will most certainly be missed. I went to the obit, and added a comment in on the guest book. He and I agreed on most things, and disagreed on a couple.... just like friends do. vaya con dios, amigo....

    Question about electricity...

    Static can be a bear... blowing air across plastics will generate a charge.... I worked at a plastic injection molding company for a while... we had hoppers on the presses for the plastic pellets... the pellets were sucked out of a plastic 55gal drum sitting beside the machine, up into the...

    Question about electricity...

    If it was a faulty grounding issue, everyone would be experiencing the same thing. As she stated, it only happens to her, nobody else.

    Acts 2:38 Comparison: Evangelical vs. Oneness / Baptismal-Regeneration View

    not a problem... I think I'm speaking to a brick wall with the dove anyway... what's the old song lyric... "there is none so blind, as he who will not see....."

    Acts 2:38 Comparison: Evangelical vs. Oneness / Baptismal-Regeneration View

    If this is true (it is not, at least not the way you imply) then WHY were all new believers baptized.... for the next couple of thousand years or so?

    Acts 2:38 Comparison: Evangelical vs. Oneness / Baptismal-Regeneration View

    Again, you are missing or ignoring the whole meaning of a passage. Paul did not say he didn't believe in baptism, he was answering the problem of disciples that were claiming to be better than others because of who they "followed" or who baptized them. Paul chastises them for that silly...

    Acts 2:38 Comparison: Evangelical vs. Oneness / Baptismal-Regeneration View

    You keep repeating this chapter as if it negates the need for baptism/Spirit baptism... You are either ignorantly, or conveniently dis-honestly misrepresenting the whole REASON for that chapter's inclusion in scripture. It even TELLS you the purpose of the passage.... Cornelius' family...

    Acts 2:38 Comparison: Evangelical vs. Oneness / Baptismal-Regeneration View

    If you want to be technical... Jesus was talking only to the apostles about the coming baptism of the Spirit... so if that's your fall-back position, then NOBODY else should be receiving the Spirit baptism... only the apostles. You are picking and choosing which scriptures to reference...

    Molinism: Is there scripture that supports it?

    I don't know why we have to complicate belief in God.... are you a Calvinist, Arminian, ecuwhanian, whack a mole.... I suppose it give some folks something to talk about... and something else to divide over. 10 I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all...

    If You Never Join Trends You Probably Have These 5 Rare Traits

    I take it you don't live in an HOA controlled neighborhood? I don't either... I would not.... Our city is pretty good about enforcing the relatively common-sense requirements, but nowhere NEAR like many of the nightmare HOA's that I've heard about...

    Acts 2:38 Comparison: Evangelical vs. Oneness / Baptismal-Regeneration View

    First off, baptism to receive the Spirit had not been implemented at that time. That didn't come about until after his death and resurrection... Secondly, Jesus has the authority to save anyone at any time, under any circumstances.
