Re: Mennonite Girl ,3, swept over waterfalls,2 years ago,parents now charged

I'm reading what seems like a lot of talk about "ignoring warnings" here. What exactly does that look like in this case. Has anyone actually been at the the site of the accident? A quick bit of googling brought up this photo. This is the correct waterfall but I don't know if this is the a...

I'm reading what seems like a lot of talk about "ignoring warnings" here. What exactly does that look like in this case. Has anyone actually been at the the site of the accident? I'm reading about signs and fences. But fences don't go forever, they end. And I'm reading that the child may ...

Re: Mennonite Girl ,3, swept over waterfalls,2 years ago,parents now charged

Pointless warning signs are everywhere, and as a society we have become accustomed to ignoring them. It seems virtually everything comes with a Prop. 65 warning these days. "Warning: this could cause cancer." Perhaps that is the real problem - not the fact that this particular warning sig...

Re: I think it is funny

Hebert, that game warden down on the bayou, he's been trying to catch Thibodeaux up to no good for a long time. He knows Thibodeaux is up to no good, because them Thibodeaux's always up to no good. He watches Thibodeaux everyday, leaving in his pirogue with a big old lunch pail and a six pack of bee...

I hope your 'Wife:' doesn't take the challenge. I appreciate reading her posts. Yours ? Not so much. :lol:
Some of your posts are interesting, you sent me off on a bunny trail over the “if” word.
In Latin it’s Cui which in context would translate to “to whom”

Re: May 16, 2024 - Posters at a Glance

So… who are we charging if I “fall” off of Mennonet? Good idea. $$ i used to offer my posts to anyone who wanted a boost. no takers. If registration dates are factored, the list would change .. at least, the order. Agreed. How many posts on average per day or per week since one's registration day m...

Re: Church Government Models

No, conservative Mennonite churches are run by SOME men. In the average CM church, most men generally only have a say in matters of minor importance. Also, in business meetings in our church where church positions are filled, women vote. Men obviously are the only ones voting at monthly men's meeti...

That might constitute negligence and the person causing you to fall might end up in prison on felony charges.

Re: Another Barge/Bridge Collision

Feeling bossy today? You call it by your definitions, I call it by the definitions we use. Argument on such things does not serve the Gospel. Speaking truth does serve the Gospel though, and I fail to see how using made-up definitions of words is speaking truth. The Dali is not a barge by any gener...
