Re: Churches, Dealerships, and Franchises

If no culture is better than another culture, then it's not accurate to use the word "culture" to describe a lifestyle formed by intentional choices to live according to God's will. It seems absurd to claim that no culture is better than another culture. We can make all kinds of objective...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

Regarding charges of murder, manslaughter, and intent - why is this case different than George Floyd? I think the only important difference is the outrage and politics, not objective law. I think the objective law is different too. George Floyd was already restrained in handcuffs when the incident ...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

By the way, using one's phone while driving is actually MORE reckless than drunk driving. Various studies have confirmed this. Here is one: https://www.racfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/texting-whilst-driving-trl-180908-report.pdf They tested reaction times of drivers drunk, high on pot, ...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

Maybe the problem here isn't the phone but the car. If he was reading sports scores on his phone while riding an Amish buggy I doubt he would have accidentally swerved into the oncoming lane and caused a crash. The difference there is he would have died rather then killed. Still breaking the law. M...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

This case should be a wake up call to any Christian that we have serious problems with phones when one gets thrown in prison for crime of using them. Any of us who use a phone in a non car safe mode while driving should repent. If that isn’t enough, get rid of your smartphone while you still can ch...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

I'm kind of curious why you quoted me in this post, considering that what you posted had exactly nothing at all to do with my post that you quoted. I understand you think reading comprehension is hard, but still.... You and Ohio Jones were having a discussion about intent. You wrote: Now OJ - you o...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

I don't get why people pack out the courtroom in cases like this. Not to mention testifying "he would never" when he actually did. It gives the impression that "we" think "we" are, or should be, above the law. There are better ways of supporting the accused. Watching s...

Re: Poll: Who will win 2024 Presidency?

Who will win the 2024 Presidency? Not the US citizen. We will continue to loose. I personally don't think who the president has very much effect on the lives of average Americans. Day in, day out, there are a long list of other things that affect our lives more than who is sitting in the Oval Office.

Re: Russia Invades Ukraine 2022

I have some newsletters about the non-resistant Christians, but for some reason my attachment quota here at the board does not allow to share. You can upload them as pictures to any free photo site like Flikr and then link to the image using the "add image" button in the editing window on...
