Re: "God Bless the USA" Bibles - from our Huckster in Chief
Oops - I meant a page of translator's notes. I think it is an important piece of history that should stay with the KJV. It tells us exactly what the attitude and mindset of the translators was. Why remove it? True. Good point. It is not good to try to sanitize true history. I suppose I am a bit tou...

Re: "God Bless the USA" Bibles - from our Huckster in Chief
I'm not sure I understand what you mean about a "day of translator's notes", but if I do understand your meaning, I do not have any issue with the historical note itself - it's the fawning over Prince James, king of England that bothers me. Maybe I am the only one who is uncomfortable wit...

Re: "God Bless the USA" Bibles - from our Huckster in Chief
Neto, I hear your point. I don't critique President Trump for selling gold shoes, NFTs, commemorative coins, university degrees, steak, business attire, bed linens, vitamins, water, or branded apartments, but I do raise an eyebrow at literally combining the founding documents into the Bible and sel...

Re: "God Bless the USA" Bibles - from our Huckster in Chief
I am not defending him, or his tactics, but how is this different than the "Glory to James, King of England" page in the front of every KJV Bible I've ever seen? (Except mine. I removed that page when I was still a teenager. Although I was still a "US Patriot" at that time, it ju...

Re: recommendations for cars/suv
insurance companies keep track of mileage, it’s unlikely anyone will fly too far under their radar. :P i have a low annual mileage discount. i’m not close to their line of demarcation. I wish ours did, because I put less than 1,000 miles on one of my vehicles last year. (There is no annual State ve...

Re: recommendations for cars/suv
.. and, insurance agent. it can be surprising how different models, years, etc., affect ins premiums. before purchase, i call to ask what i’m getting into, ins-wise. This is good advice. Maybe find two possibilities you really like, then ask your agent to prepare estimates for both. (Doesn't have t...

Re: recommendations for cars/suv
so what's your recommendation for a good used vehicle? either a 4 door car or an suv, small to mid size and why do you recommend that one? I might turn the question around and start from the other end. First find the person/ shop who will be doing the maintenance and repair and find out which vehic...

Re: recommendations for cars/suv
it's interesting to me, that very few people have recommended domestic vehicles. i've been hearing a lot of subaru forester, a lot of toyota, a lot of honda. i think that in this thread, neto and ohio jones were the only ones w anything good to say about domestic cars. i liked my malibu, i mean, at...

Re: Books on Anabaptist History and Theology
For someone interested in History, Verduin's "Stepchildren" is foundational in disproving polyorigin theory of Anabaptism. "Polyorigin" is not a familiar term to me, and google eyes couldn't help me out. Could you put that into different words for me? The theory that Anabaptism ...
