Once again, I see the biggest concern being mislabeled!  It's not the truly transgendered that are of most concern. The biggest concern is the fact that anybody can "self-identify" as transgendered.  This leaves a wide-open hole in any protection that separate facilities offer.  It is not OK...

I decided long ago that I do not like e-books.  I prefer to hold a book in my hands.  Instinctively, I knew there was a difference.  This  article confirms that there is a difference, but it doesn't/can't yet explain just what that difference is.   

Cite specific verses/passages and I will answer specifically...

Tim, if the offer of a deacon position comes (and perhaps even if it doesn?t), would you feel comfortable approaching the pastor with your concerns about the doctrinal statement?  If you do, then perhaps some of these issues could be ironed out.  It sounds to me like your church?s doctrinal...

Either I had forgotten about Biker or you were quiet about it.  No matter.  I can see why you did ban him, and I am glad of it.  No more needs to be said.  Spammers don't count in what I posted.  That's a different issue altogether.  I imagine we all appreciate how quickly you get rid of spammers!

I see wisdom in not doing a ?ban? poll.  Sometimes, polls of that nature turn out to be nothing more than popularity contests.  Frankly, I have thought more than once, ?that person should be banned?, but truth be told, I?m not sure I should be able to wield that sort of power here.  My...

Wow.  This thread is quite a revelation.  I tried to join the old .com but wasn?t ready to pay a fee to participate.  Hence, I could lurk but not participate.  Admittedly, I came late to the game, but I watched as the .com fell apart.  It took me a while, but I did migrate here.  I?m not...

OK, Web.  I went down to the bottom of the quoted post and added a few lines, just to be sure.  And the preview looks right.  Thanks for the tip!

aleshanee, you are right!  Can anyone say "manboobs"?  There are lots of men who would benefit from a padded bra as well.  ;)

Ha!Ha!  Yep, if I were that cat, I would be wearing both! ***Yep, I'm pretty sure the quote feature is broken.***

Those cats are NOT naked.  They are wearing animal skins, just like God provided to Adam and Eve after the fall.  ;)

Well, some ladies might choose to wear a padded bra to avoid having to wear bandaids.  :-X  No "enhancement" intended.

Sword, you are absolutely right. I work for my church.  I recently researched the ?salary rules? because I do payroll for my church.  I wanted to make sure that we are in compliance.  I was shocked to see that even I, as Finance Director, am not exempt from overtime.  Why?  Because I do not...

Thank you, Ransom.  You have answered all of my questions regarding this issue.

Could it possibly be that we are being too literal in our interpretation of the word "strangled"?  I don't know, because I neither speak/read the original languages nor am I a great Bible scholar. But I do wonder if "strangled" is a more general term.  Yes, it would  include "death by...

Walt, you are right in thinking both my  son and I see major problems with Obamacare.  The truth is, though, that Obamacare is just one example of a long line of bad legislation. You are absolutely right that decisions/philosophies impact people in different ways, both positively and...

Walt, I am specifically replying to one line in your post:  I'd also be in favor of denying the vote to people on welfare. Do you espouse that if a person is on any sort/level of welfare they should not be allowed to vote?  I ask, not for myself, but for my son.  He has a full-time job and...

In the NT, I was drawn to 1Cor 7.  Paul ?waffles? a bit about what is commandment from God and what is his own opinion, but after he states the benefits of celibacy, he acknowledges the reasons to marry.  Where he mentions marriage, it is always in the singular.  His own/Her own.  I interpret...

I?m chiming in very late in this thread, but: For the life of me, I can?t understand why a Christian would accept the advances in medical sciences (i.e. pharmaceuticals, surgical advances) and not accept the advances in psychological sciences, which, in fact, are also medical advances! ...

I wonder if that school might have avoided a bunch of trouble by simply grilling the cheese sandwich and serving it with a few chips and a dill pickle? But?Is there a line?  Should we draw a line?  Where should we draw the line?  Why shouldn?t we draw a line?  The crux of this story is that a...
